THE THEATRE. ENGLISH OPERA HOUSE.—Miss PATON ap peared last night, for The first time at this The atre, in the popular Opera of Der Frieschutz. She was most warmly received by a numerous audience on entering in the part of Agnes.— Miss PATON possesses more talents as an actress than most of those who are distinguished for mu sical excellence. She supported the part with great feeling, and sung with all her usual taste and skill, but the music in this part is not so well adapted to her style as that on which her reputation was chiefly founded ; still, however, it displayed great brilliancy of execution, and was justly applauded. Mr. NAUMAN also ap peared for the first time in the part of Rodolph, and if he did not equal Mr. BRANAm, he at least made a very respectable stand, and acquitted himself to the satisfaction of the audience. admired song of " Good Night," which, to the credit of British taste, has been improved upon the original, did not go off with the former effect ; but we have no doubt that on repetition Mr. PxARMAN will render it very effective. All the supernatural agents acquitted themselves with the accustomed horror, and Zansiel ap peared in the effulgence of diabolical glory. The Frozen Lake followed, and as it is a mixture of the ludicrous and pathetic, it increases in public favour. LORD SIDMOUTII. ( From the Exeter Flying Port, Sept. 8.) PRESENTATION of the FREEDOM of the CITY of EXETER to LORI! VISCOUNT SIDIVIOUTII. The Right llon. Lord Viscount SIDMOUTIS arrived at the Bishop's Palace on Monday last, on a visit to our respected Diocesan; and, at an Especial Chamber held on that day, it was unanimously resolved to present his Lordship with the Freedom of this City. Yesterday forenoon, at 11 o'clock, being fixed on for this purpose, at that hour the Mayor, Alder. men, Town-Clerk, Members of the Common Council, &c., being in attendance, arrayed in their robes, Lord Sidmouth, accompanied by his friends, the Lord Bishop, and Sir Stafford Henry Northcote, Dart., entered the Hall, and taking their seats on the right of the Mayor,—E. CIATTEY, Esq., our highly-esteemed Town-Clerk, rose, and addressing Lord Sid mouth, said, My Lord--On the part of the Mayor and Chamber, I have to congratulate your Lordship on your arrival in this city ; and to inform your Lordship, that in Common Council assembled, they have entered on their Records the following Resolution : " Resolved unanimously—That the Freedom of this City be presented to the Right Hon. Henry Lord Viscount Sidinouth, and this Body feel highly gratified at the opportunity of ex. pressing to his Lordship the high sense they entertain- of his long and valuable services during the most eventful period of our history—manifesting at all times, in the various distin guished situations he has filled in the State, a sincere attach. mont and veneration for his King, as also an undeviating and firm devotion to his Country, by withstanding every attempt at innovation in the existing Establishment both of Church and State." To the sentiments expressed in the Resolution of the Mayor and Chamber, I can venture to assure your Lordship, that all my worthy fellow-citizens most cordially subscribe—cheers)— and I shall feel proud to administer that oath to your Lordship, which will constitute you a Freeman of our ancient and loyal city, and to enrol your name with that of a Noble and Learned Lord, who intended to have been present on this occasion, whose splendid talents have deservedly attained him the high situations he at present fills in the State, to the honour of this his native city.* That your Lordship may long live to enjoy the honours conferred on you, is the sincere and heartfelt wish of the Mayor and Chamber, as well as the individual who now has the honour of addressing your Lordship.--(Cheers.) Lord SIDIWOUTH, turning to the Mayor, begged to assure him and the Chamber, that the high honour which had now been conferred, was fully and deeply appreciated by him ;—to persons filling public situations, such testimonials of approba tion, while in the active discharge of their duties, was most cheering and encouraging,—but to him , at the close of his political life, it was peculiarly gratifying,. as marking the sense entertained of his official conduct by the magisterial authorities and inhabitants of a city, which had at all times been distinguished by a firm and steady attachment to our ex cellent Constitution, both in Church and State;—(cheers) --a Constitution which never could be too highly valued by the people of this cou on ry e could and so interwoven and insearably fleeted, that the not receive the least injury without endangering the other,—and which, united and s upported, had raised our country to the high and enviable station site held among the nations of the world.—(Cheers.)—lie did, in deed feel proud of the proceedings of that day, and should ever consider it among the most gratifying circumstances of his life , —the enrolling his name with the Freemen of this ancient and loyal city.—To you, Sir, (said his Lordship, addressing himself to the Town-Clerk,) for the very handsome manner in which you have conveyed the sentiments of the Chamber to me, as also for your personal and cordial g ood wishes, I feel deeply indebted ; it has made an impression on my mind that will not easily be effaced ;—and, towards the inhabitants of this city, generally, for the warm and affectionate manner . in which they have rec e i ve d m e , I beg to exp r ess my heartfelt thanks, accompanied with my best wishes for their prosperity and happiness.--(Loud Cheers.) The Noble Lord, whose mild but dignified manners had forcibly struck all present, was then sworn in the usual form, and the Court, which had been most respectably and numerous ly attended, broke up with four hearty cheers. ' We understand the Town Clerk alluded to Lord Gifford. VISCOUNT HAMPDEN.—WE are sorry to an nounce the death of Lord Viscount IIAsteDEN, which took place yesterday morning. Ilia Lord ship had enjoyed his title only a few days, and is succeeded in the entailed estates by GEORGE, Earl of Buckinghamshire. Lord COCURANE, according to letters received yesterday, will return home in January next. Sir Ilunsom LowEl is appointed Governor of Antigua, and is about to proceed to such sta tion forthwith. Lady LoWE, it is stated, does not accompany him ; she will remain in England to hear good accounts of the climate from the Governor previously to proceeding thither. Our Minister, Sir BENJAMIN BLOOMFIELD, at Stockholm, has been expected on a visit to St. Petersburgh. It is mentioned in one of the French Papers that the Abbe M ENNAIS, notorious in France for his ultramontane principles, is to be made a Car dinal. If such be the case, the Abbe must gain the hat in opposition to the wishes of the French Government. _ _ The Emperor of RUSSIA, who has been for some weeks exercising his troops at a camp 20 wersts from Petersburgh, was to return there on the sth of August. Letters from Petersburgh mention the splendid preparations making to celebrate the birth-day of the Dowager EmettEss by fates and balls, when the Prince and Princess of ORANGE are expected in the capital. The Grand Duchess NICOLAS is in bad health, and has been recommended to try a sea voyage. She was to embark in a frigate about the 15th Aug. accompanied by the Grand Duke, and the Est eEttott was to be present at the embarkation. The frigate sent to bring home Sir CHARLES BAGoT, our Minister at St. Petersburgh, and Lady BAGOT, was daily expected there. The departure of Sir CIIMILLS is greatly regretted, as he is deservedly held in the highest estimation. THE KING. WIYDS6II, SEPT. 10.—Notwithstanding the unfavourable. ness of the weather his MAJESTY continues to take his regular drives every afternoon. The whole of his time in the forenoon, for some days back, has been occupied by public business, as scarcely a day passes but what Messengers arrive from the Foreign and Home Departments. This day his Majesty's harriers turned out, for the first time this season, in Windsor Great Park. It is expected, if the weather prove favourable, that his Majesty will, in a few days, join in the pleasure of the chase. There are no fresh arrivals at the Royal Lodge. • • • • (-4 7\s .A .

The Lord Advocate of Scotland is now on a visit at Huntley Lodge. Mr. Canning has taken the grand new house which forms the end house, and faces the Thames, of the magnificent row of noble mansions recently built on the site of old Rich mond-house, at the end of Parliament.street, and nearly oppo site to Downing-street. There will be a fine terrace fronting Mr. Canning's town residence down to the bank of the Thames. Of all the distinguished improvements about the metropolis, none has proceeded on a more splendid and solid scale than Richmond-terrace. ' THE SANDWICH VISITORS. Yesterday about one o'clock, Madame Box', with her hos band, and the rest of the suite of their late Sandwich Majes ties, arrived at the Foreign Office, Downing-street, in two car riages, for the purpose of taking leave of Mr. Secretary CAM. NING, previous to their departure on Tuesday next, in the Blonde frigate. They were all dressed in the European cos tume, and in deep mourning. In order to save the party the trouble of proceeding to Glouesster Lodge to take leave of Mrs. CANNING, that Lady kindly came to town and received them, a mark of attention which seemed highly gratifying to those unfortunate strangers, who seemed much affected on tak ing leave of Mr. and Mrs. CawNlxo, by whom they had been so hospltally entertained, and who condoled with them on the loss they had sustained.

THE AIITS.—We noticed, a few months ago, an admirable Portrait of the Essayist Aux Doc, brought from the North Pole by Captain PARRY. The animal, though mild in its nature, bore a ter rific aspect. The Portrait was taken at the Ad. miralty, by Mr. HAWKINS, one of the most pro mising young artists of the day. He has since made a Lithographic Engraving from the Por trait, which displays considerable ability in this province of art, and renders full justice to his own masterly picture. Lady BELL, relict of the late Sir TROIKAS BELL, has recently been permitted to copy some of the most valuable Paintings at Carlton Palace. The skill of this Lady as a copyist is well known, and several.of her later productions have been honoured by the approbation of his MA. JESTY. So much for the credit of female genius in this country. The King of PRUSSIA, who always discovers a marked interest in the cause of religion, has thewith o that l a . t a N i ‘ d r , o ' k written a letter to WILLIAM RAE WILSON, Esq. expressing author l s great of" `Travels satisfaction i and the success of Mr. WiLsoN, in shelving th e coinci dence existing at this time between the customs and manners of that country, and the description given of it, with its history in the Bible, and in further confirmation of its sublime veracity. FUNERAL OF TIIE LATE R. REVILL, ESQ.—Soon after two o'clock yesterday, the remains of this respected Ma gistrate were removed from his house at Stoke Newington to the Church-yard of that Parish.

V—, late of the 12th Royal Lancers, and a Mr. 0 1 11— of the Royal Navy; the former was attended,by Mr. 3 32., the latter by an Irish Gentleman, whose name we could not learn. After the first fire an effort was made to bring about a reconciliation, which was strenuously opposed by Mr. V., and the Gentlemen being once more supplied with pistols, the seconds were pro ceeding to give the signal to fire, when a report of the approach of the Police suspended hostilities; the entire party precipi ta:ely took to their carriages and drove off, pledging themselves to conclude the matter elsewhere. The appearance of the Police was, however, a mistake. LAW 'INTELLIGENCE. PALACE COURT—(Trris DAY.) CHATFIELD V. COURTNEY. Mr. ERLE stated this was an action to recover 141. 19s. for money lent and goods sold and de livered to the defendant, a ,widow, carrying on the business of a wheelwright. • The Learned Counsel having stated the nature of his claim, called the following witnesses to support his case :- ---- Lawler, nephew to the defendant, proved that he re peatedly borrowed money of the plaintiff for his aunt, but never less than 51. or 101. at a time ;. witness also afttnittc.d borrowing 11. and 21., but those were on his own account, and his aunt was not liable for those sums, as he did not mention her name at the time. Mr. Chatfield had Oyes him his ac count with the items in it. _ _ By the JuDGi—Show me your account. Witness—l have it not. [Here Mrs. Courtney's bill was produced, which contained the whole statement.] Witness denied that was the account sent to him, lie had forgot to bring it. By the JUDOE—Bc careful what you are about; the Court is not to be trifled with. Lloyd Courtney was then called; examined by Mr. Er.t.E— I believe you are related to the defendant ?—Witness—She is only my mother, that's all. Mr. BALE—What do you mean by saying she is only your mother?—'Witness—That is all the relationship between us. By the JUDGE—Conduct yours:d f with decorum ; remember you are on your oath, and don't answer in such a flippant manner; recollect this is a Court of Justice. Witness then deposed that he had also borrowed money of Mr. Chatfield for his aunt, which was regularly returned again —remembers getting 21. Js. of the plaintiff', now unpaid, 21. for his mother ; the Os. was for Lawler. The clerk to the defendant said, he had .made the entriea of the various sums borrowed, and checked them when paid.— He was about entering into a long detail respecting the nature of the transaction, but, on a question from the Bench, it ap. peered he was not present at the time. - The Juirnz summed up the evidence, and the Jury, after a few minutes consulation, returned a verdict Yk►t the plaintiff— Damages, 141.105. • MR. GRAHAM'S BALLOON. EtETER.—Mr. GRA11.1)1, accompanied by Mr. R. Cu Ltuat, jun., a young man, about nineteen years of age, son of the proprietor of The -Wired Exeter paper, ascended from the Castle Yard, Exeter, on Tuesday at half-past 5 o'clock. The course of the balloon was first in the direction of theses, but the current soon afterwards impelled the aerial voyagers towards the north east, and the balloon was in consequence observed by a great number of persons both in its way towards Tftlldtoll and after it had passed over this town, though at-the time of its palming directly over a cloud intercepted the sight of it to their'. habitants. The utmost altitude of the balloon was estimated by those seated in it to he three miles, but as they were obliged to leave behind their barometer, and even to strip the car of its cork lining, for the purpose of increasing its buoyancy. no exact opi nion of its elevation could be formed. The voyagers suffered con. siderably when in the higher regions of the hit from extreme cold. When the balloon had been up an hone - and five minutest the aeronauts judged, from the rapidity with which they were pro. seeding, that it would be prudent to descend, and having charged the gas, they effeeted their landing irta field at North Pe. therton, 8 miles front Bridgewater, and Il from this town. he balloon rebounded twice, but was secured by a party of young gentlemen belonging to Mr.. Cresswell's academy, who wens among the first assembled when it fell. Mr. Graham and his companion were very hospitably received by H. Coles, Esq., in whose field the descent took place, and after taking some refresh ment, the voyagers set of in a chaise with their balloon, and arrived in this town at eight o'clock, where they were warmly greeted and drawn round the town in their • carriage, after which they proceeded in a chaise and four for Exeter. On reaching that city at twelve o'clock at night they were received with the moat joyous. acclamations of a vast concourse of per. sons who were anxiously waiting their return. A ball was given on the occasion oldie ascent, at Congdon's Hotel, which Mr. Graham had pledged himself to attend ; he accordingly made his appearance there, in company with Mr. It. Cullum, junior. The period during which the balloon was passing through the cloud, which prevented the sight of it to the Julia. bitants of Taunton, was about twelve or fifteen minutes. —Exeter is forty miles front North Petherton, where the balloon fell, but from its course in the early part of the voyage, it is estimated that the space it traversed must have been between fifty anti sixty miles. The breeze was agreeably fresh at starting from the south west, but the higher currents were coniidembly stronger, and hurried the voyager* along at a very rapid rate—the whole journey having been accomplished, as we have stated, in an hour and five mmutta. —(Taunton Paper.) On Monday last Mr. Brown was to have ascended from Barnsley in a balloon, but owing to the very heavy rain which fell during that morning, accompanied with thunder and light ning, he deferred his aerial excursion till Tuesday, when he ascended in grand stile from that place, and passed over Ponte fract-park during the time of the races, and appeared to the view of the numerous comp an y assem bledi in the Park for upwards of a quarter of an hour. lie descended near Frysou, and arrived at Pontefract at 5 o'clock, well.
