TIIE THEATRES. COVENT•GARDEN.--The attraction of Der Preischutz obviously continues, notwithstanding the frequentcy of its representation at most of the Minor Theatres, and particularly its very great popularity at The English Opera House. It was repeated . on Saturday at Covent-garden, and the whole went _off with all imaginable hor ror, to the evident delight of a very numerous audience. YmmucET.—The active Manager of this Theatre, wisely availing himself of the conclu sion of the season at the English Opera House, has engaged Miss KELLY, one of the chief fa vourites of the Public, and who, altcgether, may be said to defy competition in the characters best suited to her talents. The Road to Rain was again represented on Saturday evening at this Theatre, and Miss KELLY appeared in the part of SThia• The truth,simplicity,and spirit,with which she performed the part excited the warmest ap plause from the audience, who had received her on ltor entrance with the most gratifying testimonies of universal. welcome. DoirToN was Old Dornton, "(I he supported the part with effective pathos. The Afterpiece was The Devil to Pay, and the J"bson and Nell, by DOWTON and KELLY, a g ai n gave the audience an admirable specimen of true comic humour. INCLEDON'S FAREWELL. Friday 1 last, the Southampton Theatre was en/ laded, in consequence of an announcement, that the above o nce-celebrated singer was to sing four of his most popular ' 4 , ( eila, and to take leave of the stage for ever, in a short ad 'gees; his not generally known that Incletlon here made 6 °did, exactly forty years ago. The late Mr. De Wane ~caring ill him sing a song at a public-house; was so much with his extraordinary powers, that he introduced 1 , 1 9 to his Theatre. lie iminediatedly received the warmest T ate of admiration, and rapidly rose into fame. • Now, 4 , 0 , 1 7 having many years survived those wonderful powers, t - I ch once so distinguished- him, as to induce his. late Majes- Y to nume him " The liritisk National Singer," he comes, a a nther -beaten but still sturdy veteran, to render his last ac !t,riowledgments to those who, in his own expressive words, (lir" his passport to f a m e ." ftirith a feeling that doe s h im cre rd_i he confers on t h e town t h e d ou bl e honour of his last, as it has eady enjoyed that cf his first appearance in p üblic.

It the to say, that he was most rapturously applauded, th ".'ltle duct was encored. After the last song he addressed audience nearly as follows : Icamts AND GENTLEMEN—It is with the sincerest feelings of gratitude that I am capable'of, that I stand before you this eveni ng to return' you my most heartfelt thanks for the distin guilllPA patronage you have ever conferred on me. In this town, and on these boards, I first appeared as a singer; and the en ` „ --eqr agearent I then received from you has proved, I Ina:, say, Paaatort to fame.

The Marquis de Dartil-Bitnze, Grand Mas ter of the Ceremonies at.the Tuileries, is well known not to be overburthened with sensto be, in short, an homme deprt pcu &esprit. On the day . of the removal of the body of Louts XVIII. to St. Denis, CHATILES X., after the cere mony was over, expressed to the Marquis his extreme dis pleasure at the irregularity and huddle with which it had been conducted. " saul the KING to him, " n'etait en ordre ; personae sic connoissait le rang quill devait prendre, jamait on n'a r»T plus de con usion dans an cortege."—" Sire," replied the Marquis, " it must be remembered that this is the first time that I ever had a procession of this nature to arrange ; but 1 assure your Majesty, that at the next ceremony of the same kind that I have to direct, every thing shall be much better managed ;" ( tout ira Lien micux.) Dr.ocKugAn," Lintor said the King, and turned his back upon him. Dr. Mortsey lived 3o long in his office of physi. clan to Chelsea Hospital, that, during many changes of admi nistration, the reversion of the place had been promised to se veral medical friends of the different paymasters of the forces. One day, the Doctor looking out of his window, saw a Gentle man attentively examining the house and gardens, who he knew had just got the reversion of the place; and coming out to him, he thus accosted him : "Well, Sir, I see you are examining your house and gardens that are to be, and I assure you that they are both very pleasant and convenient ; but I must te the ll you one circumstance; you are the ,Typh man that has got reversion of the place ; I have buried the other four ; and what is more (said the Doctor, looking archly at him), there is some thing in your face that tells Inc I shall bury you too." However extrdinar, the fact turned out to be so ; and at the time of the D rao octor's y death there was no person who had the promise of the place. • We learn that the Rev. Mr. SrrEs, of the Chauntry House, Nottinghamshire, among several other valuable additions to his collection of Mineral Curiosities, was on Thursday the suc cessful competitor, at Mr. THOMAS'S Sale Booms, with a dis tinguished antiquary and naturalist, Mr. Dowortax fur a small, though probably one of the m ost rare and interesting fossils ever exhibited at a public auction. • We hear that the Rev. 111 r.

Tun FEMALE ETE.—A modern writer gives the following enumeration of the expression of a female eye :—The glare, the stare, the leer, the sneer, the invitation, the defiance, the de nial, the consent, the glance of love, the flash of rage, the sparkling of hope, the languishment of softness, the squint of suspicion, the fire of jealousy, and the lustre of pleasure. A DonnLE DELIVERY.—At a village near Cambridge, Mrs. M--, who keeps the Post Office, is likewise a Midwife, in considerable practice. A Cantub passing that way, wrote with a diamond on the front pane of glass— " Ladies and letters safely delivered."

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. ASCOT HEATH RACES.-SATUUDAY. It is highly gratifying to report favourably of this day's Races. The morning was enlivening to the highest degree, which invited to the Heath a more numerous aueniblage than on the preceding day, which was attended with gloom and every other disadvantage. The day throughout was mast propitious. The Course was attended by Lords Francis and O. Conyngliain, Howard de Walden, H. and G. Bentinck ; Sirs A. Barnard, R. Anstruther, and W. Scott; Colonels Vyse arid 31'Quin ; Ladies Longfo rd, C. Berkeley, Pulteney, &c. &c. The luncheon (which was, in fact, a dejunC a la farrch,lir) was served up . to near 300 fashionables, and consisted of the' ; most costly viands, &c. This agreeable Autumnal Meeting, we are happy to say, is likely to become a regular one. The Stewards had nothing to do on the course.; but, as ca terers of the day's sport, were entitled to the gratitude of the visitors. As on yesterday the Officers of the 2d Life Guards gave a splendid dinner to a large party, at their barracks, which was served up by Mr. Page, 3lessinan to the Regiment. The following is an accurate statement of the Races : Match-25 sov. each, p. p. lOst. 51b. each. Last half of the new mile. MT.

It is worthy of observation, that the overflowing, in many instances, has been in places least expected, and in situations near rivers, where there are footways constructed of timber considerably above the level of the usual paths, for the ac conamodation of passengers, there is no appearance of inundation• Among the ravages committed by the severe storm of yesterday morning, was the destruction of one of the finest old trees in the meadows, whose trunk was torn up by the roots, and split into a number of pieces, as if it had been struck by lightning. We observe the fruit trees in ma►►y gardens of this neighbourhood have shared a si milar fate, and in this quarter chimney cans, and slates, and pieces of lime torn from the roofs and walls of the houses, lie scattered in all directions. —(Edinburgh Paper.)

In this Paper-of Saturday, we ,gave an nee.puti elan affray at Chelsea between. several soldiers belonging to the Life Guards and the eivii power, consisting of two constables named Maybank and Canning, arid about fourteen watch men, the majority of • whom were violently beaten in their attempt to secure the soldiers, after they had committed as saults of a most desperate description upon a watchman and several other individuals, without any provocaticin. The fol lowing additional particulars have since been stated to us : Three Life-guardsmen, named Fife, Seaton, and Crouch, and 2 others, played several games at skittles, in Mr. Amsted's (the Bedford Arms Pont-street, Sloane-street) skittle-ground , and lost a pint of beer each, and went into the tap-room to drink it. 'l'isey were then quite friendly with este% other. Several workmen in the employ of Mr. Whitehead, a painter, were' drinking in the tap-room, when the soldiers entered. One of the soldiers proposed to a painter, named Carr, to toss for a pint of beer ; Carr tossed and won ; and the soldier accidentally dropped three-half-pence on th floor, and or dered Carr to pick them up. Carr said he would not. The soldier swore lie would make him. Carr replied he was not his master, and he wished " (iod might strike him dead if he did pick them up ;" and the other workmen told Carr not to pick them up. The soldiers swore they would knock his head off if he did not, and struck Carr, and several of his companions, and knocked them from one side of the.. room to the other. The tap-room window was thrown up. and who could get through made their quickest way into the .street : but several of them were severely beaten before they could get away. .Cries of " murder" were called, and on an old watchman entering the room, the three soldiers set upon • him at once, and beat him in the most violent manner. — One struck him on the head unit face with a pewter pot, and anothci about the arms and legs with the staff he had wrenched out of his hands immediately on his entering the. tap-roorn. Another watchman entered, and one of the soldiers seized a red hot poker from the fire, and made a blow at the watchman's head ; fortunately the square end struck against the wall, but' the poker was bent very considerably by the force of the' blow. Two other watchmen received blows from the soldiers. .• During this outrage, although 50 or 00 • per sons were outside the house, ant saw the conduct of the soldiers, they thirst not interfere., A colstder, named Ogleby, who keeps a stall near to thepublic-house , was beat and kicked by the soldierie The names of the watehrnen that were most used, were Towline, Elliot, Mason, Buttery, Rubble and War. wick. On the arrival of Maybank and Cannin g , with a rein forcement of watchmen, the former determined to go for a file of soldiers, as his life was nearly sacrificed about three years ago, by an affray with the Life Guards. On his arriving at the public-house with the corporal's guard, Canning entered the tap room, and ordered the guard to secure the three soldiers, when Fife struck at Canning with a fire-shovel: but he retreated and avoided the blow. The corporal of the guard took Fife by the collar and led him to the door, when he suffered him to go, and he ran away, but was secured in Cadogan-placie. The constables then insisted upon the guard doing their duty, and acenmPanied them and the three soldiers to Knightsbridge thoracic*. On the way, some of' the soldiers repeatedly attchipted to ass ault Mr. Maybank. It was the Adjutant who s tated that the public-house kept by Mr. A. was a disorderly house, and Can ning replied that it was a highly reseeeta ble, wuse, and as well conducted as any house in the parish. The A d j utant said,Who is that impudent fellow ? and ordered Mr. C. to be turned out of the barracks, which was done. As soon as theesoldiers were called out, 'and it was reported se veral watchmen were in a dying state, - Mr. Briant, a :Magistrate for the county, residing in Cadman place, being informed of the eirciunstauce, hastened to the .and liu,inbold,' were conveyed spot Towline (the watchman), and three. &hers of the sof a surgeon, in Sloane-street, to o n 3f o la. t h il r e r: w 3 o ll u ; ir :d rla( ed ll's man. was carried to Mr. lticken ftb:er thee s, dressed. o a u l 11 8 e e A d Dicken son, a surgeon, in the neighbourhood, and the shoemaker, whose head was broken.

Tomline was in so bad a state that he could not be dressed that night, and next morning was very feverish, and twenty-two ounces of blood were taken from him. The following particulars of the injuries sustained by the four per sons who were taken to Mr. Morrah's have been. furnished by, that gentlenian from a copy of his memoranda taken upon the occasion : Tomline.—Two severe cuts upon the left side of the head (one aewicircular, of about seven inches in length, such as would have been the effect of a blew given by the bottom of a pewter-pot); another wound on the right side, a blow on the eye, and other wounds. .
