:don of s deci- once of of that I in the THE THEATRES. ,-- URURY-LANE.--Love in a Village, a true hug. fish Opera, was represented here last night with three novelties in the performance. Rosetta was performed by Mrs. BEDFORD. who a few years ago was Miss GREEN at Covent-Garden Theatre, and has since performed in Dublin. She has a Pleasing, innocent, countenance, with fine eyes, but with little expression.• Her voice is well toned, but she is apt to attempt too much, and therefore appears at times to be out of tune. There is a natural simplicity in her actieg, but the want e d th e spirit necessary for Rosetta. Mr. REDFORD, her husband, appeared for the first time on Lond on b oards in the part of Hawthorn Ile possesses a good manly looking figure, and acted the part very well, but he too is inclined to flourish his songs too much ; he had, however, the good luck to gain encores. The third novelty was the app earance of Mr. TERRY in the part of Jul/ice Woodcock. It must be admitted that he t ook pains to be jocular, but the part is not • Itithio the line of his talents. lie is excellent in dry sarcasm, stern and c ra bb e d p ar t s , b u t h e ;ants the luxuriant Immour of Justice Woodcock. 1 , is Unproved both in acting and singing, fie shews too much o f th e Brahamic school of decoration.

On Saturday last at Baron Hall, in the county of Durham, the seat of Cuthbert Ellison, Esq., one-of the Representatives in Parliament for Newcastle-upon-Tyne, George C. Venebles Vernon, Esq.,. eldest son of the Hon. Mr. Vernon, and grand son of the Right Hon. Lord Vernon, to Miss Ellison, the blooming and accomplished daughter of the Hon. Member. The marriage ceremony was performed under a special license, by the Rev. John Hadyson, Vicar of Kirkwhelpington, Nor thumberland, at about 8 o'clock in the evening, a grand enter tainment having been previously served up to the wedding party, which consisted of th e following(' istinguished individuals : —The Hon. Mr. and Mrs. Vernon, John George Lambton, Esq. ALP., and Lady Louisa Lambton, Sir Matthew White Ridley, Bart. M.P., Charles John Brandling, Esq. M.P., William Henry Lambton, Esq., and Mrs. Lambton ; Lieut.- Colonel and Mrs. Ellison, Charles William Iligge, Est (Lin den) Mrs. Carr, Mrs. Ibbot so n, John Clayton, Esq., Town clerk of Newcastle-upon-Tyne), and the several mem bers of the family, at Hebron. A salute of guns was fired• - ifroni the extensive iron works of Sir Robert S. Hawks and - Co:, itt'New Greenwich, and the numerous workmen were regaled with strong ale on the interesting occasion. The bells of N ewcast l e and Gateshead also greeted the new married couple with a merry peel, which was continued, at intervals, till a late hour in the evening. • His Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex passed through Mansfield, on Friday last, on his way to Bolsover, to take a view of the ruins of the anc i ent C ast l e at that place. 'On Satur day his Royal Highness visited Hardwicke Hall: and on Wed nesday Colonel Wildman gave a public breakfast at Nowatead Abbey, in honour of his distinguished visitor, which was at tended by the Nobility and Gentry of the neighbourhood. MISS FOOT E.—lt has been rumoured for the last few days that the world welch! be defrauded of the interesting piece of scandal which is ex pected to be developed at the approaching action for " breach of promise," brought by bliss Foote against Mr. !Layne. It is said that a douceur of live hundred pounds, or thereabeutsi. to ihe in jured party, would compromise the matter, and ir quar;els , t h vti t tit i i caciAMs"; ARAI ilia AlYeirtti concerned in them ridiculous, from meeting the public gaze. The proposal has, we understand, been rejected, and active preparations are making for the day of trial. The ordeal of a public trial, after what has transpired, must be certainly distressing to the young lady in question ; but at present there is, a prima facie case in her favour before the public, which the circumstances that remain behind the curtain are expected rather to corroborate than weaken.—( British Press.) The ale brewers in London yesterday sent circular letters to their customers, that from the high price of malt and hops they are under the Painful necessity of raising the ale 10s. per barrel. BURNS was never in Greenock but once, and that was when about to take his passage to the West Indies. On that occasion, however, his satirical spirit gave birth to from harbour, his one caustic remark, whi c h i s t oo goo d to be lost, and has not yet, as far as we can recollect, appeared elsewhere.

By the intrepidity and • exertions of a sea man, who instantly plunged in atter him, he was saved from drowning, and brought on board with no other injury save a sound ducking. The rescue, however, demanded a signal display of his liberality towards his preserver, and turning round, he, with no - small ostentation, tendered him the Win of sixpenc e , as the reward of his courage and humanity. The bystanders were astonished, and inveighed loudly against such unparalleled meanness. Burns alone, remained silent, but when pressed to give his opinion of the act---" Why," said he, " the gentleman is surely ale best judge of the value of his own life."—(Greenock Advertiser.) WELSH A NTIQU ITIES.—The History of Woks, by J. JoNES, Esq. L.L.D. Barrister, (just published) will doubtless prove a valuable acquisition to the literature of the country. The Learned Doctor has deviated from the plans of those who have preceded him, and rejects as fables the asser tions of nearly all the writers on Cambrian antiquities from Glides to Roberts. lie avoids any deep disquisition as to the primordial occupants of Britain. In the few pages which he bestows upon this subject, he considers the Ancient Britons, or Cimbri, as identified with the Celtte or Galli of the continent, and from the remains of classical antiquity, he shows that at very . remote period, the island received an accession of Cantle genian, Spanish (or Iberian) and Belgic settlers. He contends that the Oestryannides, discovered by Ilainilco 420 years prior to the Christian era, were the British isles ; places the Cassi. terides at Oakhanipton, in Devonshire; assigns to the term Britannic the meaning of British Carthage, and, from a pas sage in Caesar respecting Suessiones, regards the Belgic set tlers as the remote ancestors of the modern English (Anglo ' Saxon) nation. Upon these points, and sonic other matters in the early part of the work, we are apprehensive that pro. fessed antiquarians will not be disposed, implicitly, to sub scribe to the Doctor's opinions. The whole of the chapter respecting the Druids is highly interesting, though at vari ance with the traditionary accounts of them. 'he triads which are generally supposed to contain the remains of Druidic lore, lie asserts to have been fabricated by a few men of Glamorgan, in the close of the fifteenth cen tury. The more ancient Bards of Cambria find little favour with the Dr. The opoch when Welsh poetry attained to any degree of perfection, he fixes about the close of the twelfth cen tury ; and he gives a list of the eminent bards from that period to the present year, to which are appended sonis very flattering specimens, in an English garb, of th e p roductions of the m ost distinguished of the herdic order. His narrative of political events will be found highly amusing and instructive by the ge neral reader, whilst its illustration, by a reference to monu mental inscriptions, will render it doubly valuable to the anti. quary,—his suggestions for the improvement of the ecclesiasti cal and juridical administration of affairs in the yrincipality well deserve the attention of the statesman; and his tables of', ascertaining pedigrees must prove interesting to every Cambro Briton, ,fiii. 4- • •VP - -f . —7 • t' , .. 4- , ,ei ''' 4 - , 4' •: , v "a 4 li . ) ' • nr.r 't- . att .4( ~ - A.!. ;4.4 • : 1 / 4 Y.... • ~ ~ r, , ..

A FAREWELL TO AUTUMN. Farewell lovely auttmin, thy lastcharm bath faded, Chill winter approaches, in rude blowing stOrms Farewell to the joys which thy short reign pervaded, No more the bright sunbeam the young bosom warms. The leaves that bloomed round me, in sadness are streaking The path, where so fondly I lingered before, Past scenes of enjoyment in sorrow awaking, Which memory whispers, for ever are o'er ! Life dawns on our youth, like the sun when he's rising, We hasten to bask in its soul cheering ray, And fancy the hopes; we so fondly are prizing, Will shine through the rest of our sunniest day ;. But soon the dark clouds of affliction oppress us,. Our hopes die away as the sun disappears, How blest then the heirt, which securely possesses A sunbeam within that can light all its years.

(From Mr Annals of Sporting. Grouse and partridge shooting may be considered as gone by ; a few may be killed after the month of October, under par ticular circumstances, but, generally speaking these birds be come so wild, and are so much inclined to take long flights, having renewed their new • feathers, that, after this period the pursuit of them, if not altogether hopeless, cannot be abun dandysucceesful. Even before the middle of October, part ridges hadhecome. very shy; while grounds might be regarded as unapproachable. • and, perhaps, had the season for The pheasant is a o i r d t h a t a l ways li ves we ll , and i s, there fore, easily approachable; and, till November, it might have Shooting these bird s been i been an improvement in legal regulation ; the young birds are seldom full , or even we ll grown, on the Ist of ()amber, and in the present s e a son many were not larger than partridges. From very considerable observation it appears evident, that pheasants hatched later than usual : but they have bred better, or more abundantly, than the partridge. November- may be Justly considered as the woodcock shoot ing season; these bipds are generally to be found in more abundance about the Middle of this month, than at any other i P n e ; Piod. plenty. lVh l e n n t t l h ie ese m tveitsnihwerr's ai : . a .ood_ ke coe th k eir ias app s ea hi r ; appear ance very early it is genertilly regarded as a sign of approach in. 4.8.1.13 t act ~.). • • therefore, according to the received opinion, we may con en - ly anticipate good sport. flares seem to haie bred well ; and as this is the season for coursing and hunting them, good diversion may be obtained. There is no legal period appointed for pursuing this fleet little animal ; but it may justly be considered an outrage Upon common law, as well as upon common sense, to pursue the hare with either greyhound or harrier, till the crops have been housed. Fox-hunting, which has already begun, will now be eagerly followed. Melton-Mowbray will become the very focus of attraction ; and, at far as opinion can be formed, from no very ambiguous indications, there is likely to be a greater assem blage at this place in the ensuing season, than has ever betile been witnessed. ANGLINCL—Much good bottom-fishing and sport may be had in rivers, but not so in ponds or any other still waters, ex cept trolling and live-bait fisliing for jack and pike, which may be practised in such places all through the winter. In rivers, chub and roach will feed freely, both of which are now fat, firm in flesh, and strong in body, and will take a bait in favourable weather, during the whole of the day. This month the lover of trolling should lose no time in the pursuit of his favourite diversion, as the weather in December is generally subject to heavy rains and falls of snow, which either produce floods, or such thick and foul water, as to leave little chance of killing a fish with the angle, and as jack and pike are now in the best possible state for. the table, every advantage should be taken when . a fine days' occurs in November, as, after this month, the angler will probably have to wait till the latter end of Feb again wet a line. Barbel, dace, perch, carp, eels, and before he can again are now retiring to their winter haunt s; the winter has passed away. r th u e ary t;ckle, therefore, used for these fish, may be laid aside till On Saturday evening, a gentleman applied to Mr. RAWLINSON, of Marylebone Office, stating that he had a commission from a merchant in the City, to inquire respecting a child of the name of Anne Bigrave, who some months since had been cruelly used, in Upper Berkeley-street, Portman square. The gentleman stated,that aletter had been received from Spanish-town, Jamaica, requesting that the child should be sent to its mother. Here the gentleman produced extracts from the Jamaica papers, copied from the English journals, which had reached the eye of the mother, who had given instructions that her child should be sent her toas soon as possible. Th e m o the r 's letter r ead by the Worthy M ag i s t ra t e , was then Jamaica, expressing the greatest gratitude for the kind protection he had afforded her child, and entreat ing him to forward her wishes, in restoring her child, and for which she would be ever grateful. Ajr.ita'vijns s ctmnn i,t l i u lat i l c i n e toi f i e t, andltlil highly ly gratified at the i gentleman's which would be highly pleasing to Mr. 11. Drummond, of Port man-square, who had joined him (M r. Raw linson) in protecting the child, who at present is at the country seat of Mr. Drummond, where she is perfectly happy. Mr. Rawlinson here turned round to Mr.Griffiths and said" II ere ken instance where the public prints are of the greatest utility; for if this affair had not been made public, the poor child would not be so happily placed, nor restored to the arms of its mother." Mr. Griffiths coincided with the remarks of his worthy col league, and observed " that of late, the Police Reports, especially, had the most beneficial effects in furthering the cause of justice and that here, in this case, he was certain it had done more than could be possibly expected." — (Morning Paper.)

We understand his Lordship expressed himself highly gratified with their military appearance, and their tine discipline, as also of the good condition of their horses. The grand military band of the Lancers ►performed a number of f avour i te marc h es, and military airs.

A dreadful occurrence took place yesterday morning, about eleven o'clock, in consequence of a trilling dispute between two men in the em ployment of Mr. DARBY, builder, in the Five Fields, Chelsea ; one a stone-sawyer, of the name of J. Bishop, and the other an Irishman, a brick layer's labourer. The contention arose as to who should he first supplied with water from the pump. Bishop suceeded in placing his pail, and, was in the act of pumping, with his back turned to his opponent, who, taking an assassin-like ad vantage of his position, seized a hoe, with which they mix mortar, anti gave him a tremendous blow on his head. It penetrated through his hat, and inflicted a dreadful wound on the top of the head. • The poor man, who is only about 22 year; of age, was instantly conveyed to the Westminster Infirmary, in a very precarious state. Through the anxiety that prevailed to render assistance to the poor sufferer, the perpe trator of the horrid deed made his escape. At a late hour we made inquiries, and understood that • his life was in the most imminent danger.— (British Press.) LAW INTELLIGENCE, COURT OP CHANCERY, Nov. 2. 0 LI) BANKRUPT PETITIONS. When his Lordship came into Court, he intimated his belief that he had now read all the bankrupt petitions urn papers that are before him for judgment, of which he was anxious to disencumber himself as soon as possible. He would therefore state on Thursday (as he will not sit to-morrow) the judgments, and the dayS on which he will give those judgments. BANKRUPTCY. Mr. SPENCE understood his Lordship had received a package from Liverpool, relating to a commission of bankrupt which had been executed in South AMer'ea ; and as that package had been sent to his Lordship instead of having been regularly livered to the Solicitor here, it Was apprehended. that some irrereioguuslaco ns rity might have taken place which might b e of most sequence. The LORD CHANCELLOR had received a package which appeared to him, from what he could conjecture, to be inter. rogatories upon parchment: and provided he was correct in supposing that package related to the subject in question Mr. Spence alluded to, if the Solicitors on both sides would meet him in- hisprivate room b e fh re h e came i nto C ourt on Thursday morning, the package should be opened in their pre. sence.' Mr. SPENCE promised that the two Solicitors should be de. aired to do so. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, Nov. 2. lIVIINE V. r aiding ,. Mr. Fitxmcn, as the Judges were rising, begged to mention this case, in which the defendant obtained a rule td show cause why there should not be a new trial. Ile was Counsel for the dekridAnt, who, as his colleague 111 r. Cooper was dead, looked entirely to him, and at present he was in an ill suite of health. He was anxious, theretore l that the case s h ould not be taken till after the early part of the term. The LOAD CHIEF JUSTICE said it was impossible to ap-' point the case specially, as that course always produced incond venience to some one. .111 r. FItENCII said he did not wish that the case should ba specially appointed, but only postponed for the present. • The Lonn CHIEF-JUSTICE suggested that it might meet the wishes of the Learned Counsel if the Court now said they would not take the case at the present Sittings. 111 r. Frunica assented; and the matter dropped, with an understanding that the case ut all events will not be argued' before terni. The other proceedings were entirely destitute of interest.
