THE THEATRE. IfiTMAREET.---NYCIIERIEVII Comedy of The Country Wife, too gross for the refinement of the present age, altered and divested, to a great de free, of licenti ousness i n th e di a l ogue , b u t st ill t oo ree is the contexture of the Plot, was received at this' Theatre on Saturday, under the title of •TheCountrji Girl, a title which it has now borne far many years. The occasion of this re vival was to Introduce a new actress in the part •of Miss Peggy. Her name has not yet been announced, but her performance was so successful that, it. will of course soon be given to the public. She is very young. Her face is pleasing, if not critically . handsome. Her voice is clear and well-toned. On her first ap pearance she was so terrified' that if Mrs. W. CLIFFORD, who - performed the part of A lithea, had sot restrained her with a kind assiduity that does honour to her feelings, the fair debutante Would probably have ran from the stage. The Y o ung Lady displayed an evident genius for the stage by her performance of this character. T here was a playful simplicity, yet an archness in her manner, that proved her full conception of the character. Site was deservedly much ap plauded. Her figure is neat, and rather below the middle size, and she is really a very promis actress. COOPE R was the most respectable Ilan:owl that we have seen since the days of Joux PALMER, but he looked too young to ap- Pear Its the uncle of JOUNSON, in Bolvilte. 'Tie Part of bloody, wp conceived, would be rather abeet, the scale of WILLIAMii, but . he really per formed it with considerable ability, and only i wanted a form l arge enoug h to g i ve f orce to his 8 , ?,r1 humour and th e menaces res ul t i ng f ro m it. !louse was very well attended, and,the Co medy very well,received. . . at p C°ll una Tue.tTne.—On Saturday evening, ter tin termination of George the Third, and % : 16Ist the overtur e to th e afterpi e ce was being r : 4, ormed, a misc rea nt i n the gallery threw a rss quart bottl e , w hi c h p asse d w ithi n a f e w ! aches of the head of the , leader of the band, and 1 : 11 ePas the f oo t li g h ts o f t h e stage .

The audience abhorrence of the act by the applause which followed this address.

The 2 d Life Guards marched from t he cavalry barracks to the infantry barracks this morning: prayers were read to both regiments in the barrack-square.

WORSESTUI, FitILIAT I SEPT. 17.—The "first Oratorio was performed at the Cathedral yesterday, and was remarkably well attended. Before the performances commenc ed, every seat in the choir had become occupied, and mat y of the company were compelled to stand at the side-doors of the aisles. The Oratorio was the " Mesiiah ;" and Braliam, of course, opened it with the most beautiful of all Handel's reci tative movements, and, perhaps, the most celebrated of all his own triumphs. Mrs. Salmon gave, "There were Shepherds," and "Rejoice greatly," in her richest tone and most perfect manner. Miss Stephens was extremely happy in .the sweet air " But thou didst not leave," and in " I know that my Re deemer liveth." Vaughan sang " Thy rebuke" with much feeling, and the contra ,alto parts were sweetly executed by Knyvett. Miss Travis and Mr. Bellamy took the other solos. Upon the manner In which the choruses were done it would be difficult to bestow too much praise. After the close of he Oratorio, we - found that the gay assemblage who had paid their money to get in, must come to the same terms before they could get out. A certain number of ladies and gentlnion of distinction, were stationed in most formidable array at the door, holding each a plate, to PUS which (with the billies at least)and not matte a deposit, was impossible. We never saw more de termined applications. There can bo no mendicitr society in Worcester. Concert followed at the College Hall. The attendance was considered thin, although there could not have been fewer than eight hundred persons present. The selection' was not only generally varied and relieved, but it contained the novelty of some old English music. In the first act, Miss Stephens, Miss Travis, Mr. Bellamy, Mr. Vaughan; and Mr. Knyvett, performed a portion of Purcell's music in Ms Tem pest, which went off remarkably well. Mr. Vaughan swig Dr. Pcpusch's celebrated cantata, with Lindley's obligate acconi— paniinent. Nicholson also played a beautiful accompaniment to Mrs. Salmon's " 0 dolce concento," about which we must say as little as tiossible. The next piece was Bishop's charm ing round, " Yes, 'tis the Indian drum." Rossini 's " Cruda sorte," having been performed immediately after by. Mrs. Sal mon, Miss Stephens, and Mr. Vaughan. Brahma gave hit beautiful melody " Love's good night," from Dcr Frei:Mart with rare feeling. The Second Act produced one of enchanting Concertos. Mist Stephens sang " Sweet Home," and Braliam one of his songs in the Merry Wives. Mrs. Sal mon ended with Nicolo`e Romance, " Je ne'veui pits chanter." The finale was the splendid chorus at the end of La Cis menzo di Tito. SATURDAY, SEPT. 18.—The Cathedral filled yestercfay morning very soon after the opening of the doors. The first part of the performances consisted of scenes from Judas Mac cabteus, and the other two were taken from the works of Mo zart, Jomelli, Hayan, Ouglielmi, fonning a selection to which nothing could be objected, excepting that it might be something too long. But the admirable style in which the greater part of it was done even made a five hours' perform ance agreeable. We have often thought that an • occasional in: cidental failure in a great singer operates as a stimulus, and never more than on hearing Nra. Salmon to-day after her ants of the previous night. She sang " From mighty Kings" in a manner which nothing could excel. Her matchless beauty of tone, and all the best qualities of her style were displayed throughout 'the song,'so as to excite a murmur of approbation amongst the audience at its close. which could not be mistaken. It was understood, and readily complied with by an encore.— Mrs. Salmon has a few peculiarities in her pronunciation which she would do well to correct. For instance, in this song she sings— • " " From mighty Kings he took the spoil, " And, with tits axe, made Judah smile." Braham had to sing " Sound an alarm," immediate!), after this brilliant triumph, and he teemed inspired with the desire of rivalling it ; for he never gave that masterPlece of ener getic song with more splendid e ff ect. He a ft erwards sang " Deeper and deeper," with an equal degree of pathos and ex pression. Miss Stephens was not behind in the exertions of the day. She sang, " Farewell ye limped streams," and " Let the bright Seraphim," admirably. Some selections from the '''asset of Jonielli and Mozart, and front the " Requiem" of the latter, were finely done by the singers we have named, aided by Messrs. Bellamy, Vaughan, and Knyvett, and Miss Travis. We are sorry to state, that Mr. Bellamy was so much indisposed, as not to be able to proceed in one of his songs. In the evening he was unable to sing the solo Songs set down for him, but determining not to create further disappoint. inent, he appeared and took his parts in the concerted pieces. Ile was received warmly by the audience, and we are happy to see so marked a tribute of feeling paid to a gentleman whose conduct before the public has always been that of the utmost propriety. The College Hall was crowded to excess in the evening, and as it possessed no means of ventilation, the heat it became intolerable. The Concert, in point of exe cution, was much superior to that of the preceding even i,og., Signor and Macl ai ne de Begnis perforated again, and toey appeared to be the stars of the night in the favoni of the audience. They pee two of their comic duetts, which were both encored, as was Madame Ro nzi ' s " Una voce poco fa," from " Il Barbiere." Mrs. Salmon sang "Cease your funning," and, " New Gypsies Glee." d e sire, Miss Stephens warbled her with Miss Travis and B ellam y , Welch's charming beautful ballad " Auld Robin Gray," and sang in several con. certed pieces. Braham was encore d in all his songs—` S mil e again my bonnie 'Jessie," Scots wits has, and his own quarte t s , Mild as the Moonbeams." In comp liance with a g e nera l ! repeat, " Donald," whi c h she sang so charming l y at the first Concer t Miss Travis had the hon our of repeating the balla t. d One of' the gre a test treats of the n i g ht was , a concerto by Nicholson, i n which he introduced' his celebrated variations upon " O Nanny," and " Jean de Paris." The Concert con• eluded with " God save the King , " the verses of which were done with g rea t s pi r it by Miss Stephens and Madame Ren zi de Begnis. Ma. CANNING'S VISIT TO DUBLIN. - (From the Dublin Corrapondent, Ppt. The Right Hon. Secretary arrived at Howth yesterday afternoon q lie was received upon landing by Sir Ed ward Lees, I ke., and shortly afterwards proceeded on his way to town, in a carriage of the Lord Lieutenant's.

Mr. Con ning, in reply', assured his Lordship that nothing would be more gratifying to.hhn than meeting the Citizens of Dublin, but as his visit was of a private nature, and one rather of re !axatitii, he would be oblig e d to decline, most respectfully, any pUblic meeting , or mark of favou r: The Lord Mayor electexpressed great regret at M r . C ann ing's determina tOn,. as he had hoped to be honoured by his presence at his inisugtitation dinner on the 30th instant. Mr. Canning said he was fully sensible of the great kindness and honour in tended him, but .he would be under the necessity of leaving Dublin before that period. This day Mr. Canning, accom panied by his Secretaries, arrived in one of his Excellency's stafe carriages, at the Mansion-house. - Shortly after the Right Hon.

The Right Hon. Gentleman came over in a Post Cfll ie Stearti.packet. ( From the Dublin Morning Post of Thursday.) It will be seen by the account which we insert of ti l e inter view the Lord Mayor, Lord Mayor elect, and Mr. Canning, that the Right Hon. Gentleman declines all Addresses and Honours from the Corporation ! Yesterday the Lord Mayor, accompanied by Alderman Jones, (the Lord Mayor elect,) proceeded to the Park; to pay their re-' spects to Mr. Canning, and to congratulate him on his arrival in this his native country. On arriving - nt the Lodge; they were instantly honoured with an interview, notwithstanding the Right lion. Gentleman's fatigue, lie having just arrived front Howth. _ The Lord Mayor assuring Mr. Canringthat the Magistrates and Citizens of Dublin would feel happy in paying hint every possible mark of respect and attention, which his very exalted station demanded. Addresses of congratulation were now in progress, and he expressed a hope that Mr. Canning's stay in. Dublin would not be of that very short daration which the pub lic were to suppose. Mr. 'Canning stated, that it would be extremely gratifying to hint toliave an opportunity of meeting the Citizens of Dublin ;, but that his visit being of a private nature, and one of relaxa tion he would be under the necessity of declining the Intended honovr.l. The Lord Mayor Elect hoped Mr. Canning, together with the distinguished friends that accompanied him to this country, could make it convenient to honour him with their presence at his in tuguration dinner on the 30th inst. Mr. Canning regretted that his stay in Dublin was necessa rily so extrernly limited as to oblige him to decline the plea sure, but that be felt truly sensible of the great kindness and honour intended him. • The Lord Mayor tendered his services to accompany the Right Honourable Gentleman in viewing the City and Public Buildings.

MEETING OF THE CREDITORS OF MESSRS. • MARSH AND • Saturday, in pursuance of an advertisement, , anonymously inserted in 'some - of the public prints,.convening a meeting of the creditors on the Banking Firm of Messrs. Marsh, Stracey, Fauntleroy, and Co. at the Boar and Castle, Oxford street, about fifty persons assembled in a room in that tavern at the appointed hour (one o'clock.) As they assembled they accosted each other, to know either the nature of the meet. i ng, or the parties who called it, but for some time no satisfac tory information could be obtained. At length Mr: Frost. rose and said, that it was time some Gentleman should state why this meeting had been called, or what was the intended: object. Ile was at a loss to know what was the object of - their being thus convened—at all events, now that they were. met, it was obvious, that, in their unfortunate situation as creditors of the Bank, they ought to conduct themselves with the' utmost temper and patience ; nothing beneficial could be done without the exercise of these virtues, and particularly when they were placed in so embarrassing a predicament. Several Gentlemen disclaimed any knowledge of the con veners of the Meeting, or its object, and suggested the pro priety of calling up the landlord, for information, upon these points. Mr. Saunders, the landlord, who was sent for, 'soon appeared, and said, that all he knew of the matter was, that creditors who resided in the neighbourhood, named Messrs. Marks, Newsom, and somebody, Bushnell, Alleu, and others, had called on him to have a room for t h e purpose, and he understood there were Gentlemen present who were prepared to open the business to the fleeting. A desultory conversation then arose, and the propriety . of having a Chairman was intimated, for the sake of regularity. Mr. Frost was named for that purpose. He expressed his rea diness to take the Chair, if assured of the support of the meet ing, although he had nothing to do with calling it. He re marked, in the course of his observations, that he iuid heard With regret'i► message hail been sent to two of the firm, request.' ing their attendance here to-day, but no answer was returned. Ile thought it was rather premature and indelicate for such a message to have been forwarded, because, if the purpose were to interrogate them for information, it was clear they could not give any, it being understood that Mr. Fauntleroy declined stict t l i y le giving them any explanation as yet of the extent of the mischief. a ci i i , a ri i v r a . te It o n w e as fo tt r i e c n red notified,iton alone,t hat s a t a a l s i b n i: t e c l i j o s. s ji n h l O o lnee l f l e . n l C il Sri i neT o : s i ll il e :woe w f rr fit ) st l that any body attending in behalf of the public press, and not Il' iv ot e ou r were tdi c l c hiefly cnwtwe,rilittetibei interested. a ny n i o n t o t i t i l e e r i t ) t r i e a % t io n u e s - A Gentleman observed that all the creditors could not attend, 'and lie thought the Gentlemen of the Press ought to be per mitted to be present, to report the proceedings, for the benefit of those creditors who were absent. This was .opposed by a person whose name was said to be Honeywell, anti he put a motion to exclude the reporters from the room, which war al most unanimously negatived. Upon the motion of a Creditor, that the list of persons who called the meeting be produced, a paper containing the following names was put , into the hands of the Chairman :—" Signed, Honeywell,. for Bushnell and Co. ; Charters, Holland, and Co. ; Cork , and Spain • John Messer; G. Smith ; Isaac Smith, jun. ; .lohn Marks and Co. ; Mr. William Mills; Thomas Barnes; Wm. Sanderson, John Hill." _ _ The Chairman was asked what was the object of the , Meeting ? Mr. Charters, a creditor, said he had signed the paper call ing the,Aleeting together, and the object was, to adopt means to obtain possession of their property. The Chairman said, that if no person belonging to the firm of Marsh, Stracey, and Co., appeared to give the creditors infer mation, he thought the Meeting was premature, as the creditors mould be quite in the dark as to the true state of their affairs. Ile thought • it would not be improper, as there was a great number of the creditors present, to say that, at the present moment Marsh and Co. had cash in the house sufficient to pay all who had claims upon -them, and more.—(Applause.)—He hoped that no rash measure of the creditors would throw the estate into the hands of improper persons, and the property be swallowed up in law proceedings. A Gentleman observed, that he was a creditor to 4 eonsida. cable amount, and he had always experienced the most honour able treatment at the hands of the bankers. Ile did not mean to say that this Meeting was premature, but he thought it was a favourable trait in the character of Messrs. Marsh and Co., thaton the Saturday before they stopped payment, they should have paid out to the public not less than 350,0001.---( H ear, hear Mr. Noel, an Attorney, said he wait a creditor for 5001., and had attended the meeting from mere accident, having seen a paper et , the door of the Tavern announcing the meeting of creditors as he pasted by. He thought, that as no person was present front the (lank to give them infetmation.; that the meet ing was premature. Ile had great confidence in the honour and integrity of the partners, Messrs. Marsh, Strawy, and Graham, and wax surprised that the meeting had not been ge nerally made known to the body of creditors.--(Some voice ex claimed, " There is not a tenth of the creditors present.") Mr. Charles said, " Gentlemen, I am one who signed the advertisement for calling the meeting, and our sole object is to get our money es soon as possible.—(Cries of " You said so before.")--We wish to know the cause for stopping payment ; and I ask, Gentlemen, why the Bank should have stopped payment when they possessed funds sufficient to pay all the claims upon the house, as the worthy Chairman has stated ? (Ilear !)—I hope, as we are now met together, that the affairs will he put into honest h a nd s; an d I cannot but express my surprise that Messrs. Marsh, Stracey, and Graham, who are not under charge of illegal conduct, should not have thought proper to have appeared in person, or by their agent. Gen tlemen, I hope we shall avoid the fate that befel the creditors in the case of Howard and Gibbs, and I think it was nothing more than what we might fairly have expected, that Messrs. Marsh and Company should have given some reason for their having suspended payments." He hoped that, before the meeting separated, some persons would be pointed out to watch over the interests of the'creditors. _ _ Thelwoll said he did not approve of the present Meeting. It had been called by persons scarcely known, and in such a partial manner, that excited strong suspicion that some job was contemplated.—(Cries of " Hear, hear !" and much noise from a coterie.) Mr. Honeywell—Are you a creditor? Mr. Tlielwell—Ycs, I am, Sir, and have banked In the house sixteen years. I object to this meeting for various reasons, and I believe it is likely to lead to no good, except to throw work into the hands of the lawyers (here the speaker cast his eye, and looked expressively towards a knot of attorneys pre tent), and his observation excited a noise and uproar. Gen. tlemen, I beg_to state that I oppose the last speaker's observa tions, and will answer them if I am not prevented by cia. moor. He asked why they stopped payment ? I reply that the reason has been publisliesi in the newspapers by the other partners, viz., that it was owing to the delinquency of Mr: Fauntleroy, who had been committed for forgeries of the most extensive description. I give the other partners credit for having acted in a way most honourable to themselves, and likely to prove most advantageous to their creditors ; and am of opinion this meeting is not only premature, but may be very injurious to the interests of the creditors ge nerally. lie concluded by moving that if any person present has authority to give authentic information to the meeting concerning the affairs of the Bank, he be kind enough to come forward and state the same, and if no such person be in attendance that the meeting be dissolved.—(Loud Opposition.) A person present opposed the latter part of the motion, " That the meeting be dissolved," and it was expunged. The motion was seconded. Mr. Riley, a linen-draper, of Oxford-street, said he was a creditor, and should not oppose the Motion ; but he thought there was no person present, who could give more information than himself--(leitighter.)—He had been told from authority, which no one could pretend to dispute, that twenty shillings in the pound would be paid to all the creditors—(" Hear, hear !" and " no, no !")--:.This depended much, he admitted, upon the allowance of the Bank of England's claims on Marsh and Co.'s funds. lie firmly believed the Bank was in solvent cir cumstance. Mr. IVood, of the firm of Bushnell and Co. said that he was convinced, that though the Dank had 400,000!. in cash in the house, yet it was not in solvent circumstances.. Mr. Thelwall's motion was put and carried. Mr.. Riley said that a Committee ought to be appointed to watch over the interests of the creditors. Mr. Thelwall wished the meeting to be dissolved, as tending more to the injury of the creditors than serviceable.—(A per son named Honeywell, here used some coarse observations to. wards Mr. Thelwall.)—Mr. T. exclaimed, " if any person uses ungentlemanly language to me here, he must answer for it elsewhere:" Mr. Allen, (an Attorney and Deputy Clerk of the Peace forlVestrninster) said, that though they had no information from the verniers of the bank laid before them, yet they had these facts that the bank had stopped payment, and that a Commission of Bankruptcy had been issued. He was of opi nion the Meeting, before they separated, ought to consider the propriety of appointing proper persons as a Committee 50 watch over their interests, by carefully looking into the pro ceedings during the working of the Cominission.—(Applauee , ) for in his opinion, it depended mainly upon the parties into whose hands the proceedings fell, whether the creditors obtain ed their property, or were deprived of it. Mr. Noel said, that a Committee ought to be appointed to consider who were ch most proper permns to be made choice of for assignees, under:the camtnisainn - against:Massh ands Mr. assig nees, again ateonely ppppseil the pr oceedings, and said, that the only effect Of - theM would' to throw busine.is into the hands of lawyers. Mr. Allen said, that the attack of Mr. T. upon the profession was. as,uninst as his observation was false; anu,he.would assert, that a more honourable body of men did not' xist than atomics. —(Cries of hear, and laughter.) Mr. Thelwall replied, that he meant nothing personal; but his experience had caused him to know, that these kind of meet. itigs, got up by the Lord knows Who, and the Lord knows how, only tended to the multiplication of law proceedings, to the profit of lawyers, and to the great injury :of the c.:vditors.— (Noise and contusion.)—Mr. Theiwall's ‘ motion to dissolve the meeting was put and negatived. Mr. Birnham, a creditor, said it wasOf importance, if a cont. Mittse was appointed, that petsons whose debts were of solue magnitude were appointed on it; for if they had a large stake they would naturally look to the interest of themselves. Ile: then moved that the following nine persons be appointed of the Committee, whose claims are above 1,0001. each.. The motio4 was seconded and carried, and the Meeting sf.lected the foliow_ ing six persons,viz. Mr. Dawsoci, Marlboiough-street ; Mr. 1V arr, builder, New-street ; Mr. Charters, Mr. T. Oilby. (an •attorney), Mr. J. Ilutchins, and .Mr. John Rogers. There being no other creditor in the room whose claim amount:Al to I v oool. it was propOsed to withdraw the motion after it was paned._ _ . • Mr. Thelwall opposed it ; but the Mover would not consent to - such a proceeding ;he moved, " That the 'Meeting do ad journ, and that a General Meeting ,of the Creditors be called on a future day by more general advertisement." This motion was seconded, and after a good deal of noise on the part of 3:- veral of the persons who called the meeting, by whom languai.;:: rude and violent was used, was negatived. • It was moved and .seconded, " That , the above six named Gentlemen be appointed a Committee (with power to add to their numbers) to recommend proper persons to 'be chosen by the creditors as assignees to the estate, and that a general meeting of the creditors be called prior to the second meeting under • the commission." This motion 'was carried, and some conversation took place, in-which a Creditor said:that he was informed at the bank of .harsh • and • C 0.,. that the Creditors would sustain a very considerable loss by the conduct of Mr. Fauntleroy. _ •A motion of thanks to the Chairman was put ard carried. Some altercation took place between 111 r. Gilby, the At. torney, Mr. \V Noel, and the Chairman, as to who ought to take possession of the documents containing the resolutions and . proceedings of the meeting, which terminated in the Chairman putting them into his pocket and leaving the room. He said that when the Committee met he should take care to supply them with the documents authorising them to act for the Creditors.

There was another moderate supply . of all descriptions of English Corn last week, but a considerable account of Flour. The quantity of foreign Oats was very large. This morning the fresh arrivals of Grain in general are unusually small ibr this time - of the year, and the yield of the Wheat crop being reported much !elm than last year, has occasioned a brisk de mand for this article, and prices lave advanced :is. to 4s. per quarter since' this day se'nuight, with very little left on hand unsold. Barley is also rather higher in price. Beans are scarce, and obtain Is. to 2s. per quarter inure than last Mon day. Boiling Peas are Is. to 2s. per quarter higher; Grey Peas are also rather dearer. The large quantity of foreign Oats now here cause our buyers to purchase slowly, in expecta tion of reduced prices, but as most other articles are rather dearer, .t.e factors are not disposed to yield to less prices for sweet parcels of Oats; but other qualities may be rated Is. per quarter lower. There is some expectation of an advance in the price of Flour, but it is not yet deeltled.
