TIIE THEATRE. 11 AYmAarirr.—W e have already noticed the representation of the admirable Comedy of Thtt Rivals at this Theatre, and we were confirmed in our favourable opinion on Saturday. FARR EN succeeded DOWTON in Sir Anthony Absolute, and as he is well known in the character, it is only necessary to to observe, that he supported it With his usual humour ; Mrs. Gr.ovEti, wisely adapting herself to characters of advanced life,will, be sure of an engagement on the London boards, as she gives so striking a proof of her talents in Mr:. Malaprop. The other performers we have mentioned in their respective characters. We announced the intended revival of the. Burletta of Midas, and on Saturday that admirable effu sion of lyric whim and humour was brought for. Ward, with a picturesqu e display of scenery and a general array of th eatr i ca l mer i t t h at are creditable to th e manag emen t. L ISTON ' S Midas is a most the treat, and is finish ed in all parts. Nlrs. VEST': IS, for the first time, was the Apollo : she acted with spirit, and secured encores to her sons. The jealous sisters appeared with Miss GEO RGE and Mrs. AV due effe c t i n t h e act i ng o f A I Mysis were not less effectivel L ETT, and Pan and prominent in the hands of W. WEST Burletta and Mr Y s.C. JONES. The of Midas is so origin in . lnd al conception, , the l y r ic d• . dialogue is so well written and adapted to the music, Which Was ' compos e d by chiefly Ito • Lssr.A 11, that the nam e of O'HARA, the Author of the • . i Plece, ought to be m ore h onourably re corded in Dramatic Annals. T _ HE ARTS -.----Among th e art of engravi modern i mprovements i n th e ng, that up on S teel seems to be most valuable, as it admits of equal if not greater accuracy, and far durabilit exceeds copp er in y. Two excellent specimens of this kind have recently app eare d , one from a picture by TrNIERS, of Dutch B oors, belonging to Mr. WusTALL, engraved by Mr. LOPTON ; and the other from The Cottage Door, painted by WESTALL, and engraved by Mr. C. TURNER. Mr. The Picture of The Cottage Door, represent ing an interesting rustic girl in front, and her mother industriously employed :3ehind, is w ell known, and justly admired. The P r i n ts do justice. to the subjects, and creditable to the resp are highly ective A rt i sts. Since the c l ose of the Royal Academy and the other Exhibitions, in Oil Painting and Water Colours, the BRITISH GALLER Y has much increased in at traction, and well it may, as the whole collection comprises the works of NGLISII A wrisTs, and is honour a bl e to the E genius and taste of the coun try, In our last visit we noticed a Picture of th e Boulevards of Paris, lately ady LNG, in addi t i on to her other t se wo n t b b e y aut L iful works which' at present ornament the Gallery.

ANECDOTE OF TIIE LATE DR. FRANKLIN.—Dr. BENJAMIN FRANKLIN was the fifteenth son of a e lirl byer and S oap -boiler, by whom he was very ti Y placed apprentice .to a Bookseller and Sta. oner.

WINDSOR, JULY 24.--On Friday afternoon the KING drove through the inclosed plantations to Virginia Water, where he took an airing ofconsiderable length. In the course of the day the Duke of Devonshire and Count Lieven arrived at the Royal Lodge. His Majesty gave a splendid Dinner Party in the evening, which was attended by their Royal Highnesses the Luke and Duchess of Cambridge, the Duchess of Gloucester, and the Princess Augusta, the Duke of Devonshire, Count Lieven, and Noblemen in waiting of his Majesty's Household On Saturday the King, accompanied by his Royal and Illus trious Visitors, proceeded to Virgia Water, anti embarked in the new pleasure-boat upon the lake. Refreshments were pro. vided in marquees pitched upon the lawn, and the heat of the weather having considerably subsided, .the Royal Party pro tracted their stay till the evening had far advanced. On their return to the Lodge the King gave an Entertainment on a scale of splendour similar to the - preceding evening. His Majesty's Private Band attended on both occasions. This unrivalled collection of instrumental performers arrived, during the course of last week, from Brighton. They are about forty in number, of whom a considerable proportion are German's. Some houses in the town, which are Crown property, are to be fitted up for their residence; and thus every doubt as to Windsor becom ing the permanent residence of his Majesty is removed. The hand of the Ist Life Guards attended on the Terrace this after noon, and played a great number of select and favourite pieces of music. The terrace was much crowded, the influx of strangers into the town, during the last week, having -been unusually great. The facility afforded to visitors, by his Majesty's gra cious desire, of seeing the new grand entrance to the upper quadrangle forms an additional attraction ; the Royal kind ness, we are happy to say, is duly appreciated. ETON SCHOOL.—On Saturday the annual election of Scholars took place at Eton College. The purposes of this ceremonial are two-fold ; first, the examination of the senior scholars, prepara tory to their departure for the University; and, secondly, the election of young gentlemen to supply the vacant places on the foundation. At twelve o'clock the Provost of King's College, Cambridge, attended by two Professors, arrived at Eton, and, in conformity with ancient custom, was received at the entrance of the College quadrangle by the Provost, Fellows, and Mas ters of that noble institution. Mr. Astley, Captain of the school, delivered a Latin address, after which the examination commenced. In the evening, the young gentleman had a splendid regatta on the Thames, which was of a similar de scription to that which we noticed in our Paper of the sth June. The only variation was in the fire works, which were more bril liant and diversified than usual. The spectators of this minia ture fete were extremely numerouz, and, owinato the fine 'ess of the evening, every boat not engaged by the scholars, was put in requisition for parties of ladies, who added greatly to the gaiety of the scene. FASHIONABLE CHANGES. His Grace the Duke of Devonshire, from Chiswick, for the Derby Races ; the Duchess of Bedford, for Woohurn Abbey ; the Duke of Portland, for Welbeck, Nottinghamshire; Lord and Lady Grantham, for the Isle of Wight; Lord Nugent, for !Alleys, Buckinghamshire ; the Countess of Sandwich, fur Hinchinbrooke; Lord Lynedoch, from Warren's Hotel, Re gent-street, fur Scotland; Mr. and Mrs. Moriis and family, from Baker-street, for Richmond ; Henry Winston Barron, Esq.

The Duke of York left town on Saturday morning for Brighton, for about a month.. His Royal Highness will reside at the King's Palace. On Saturday evening PrinCe Leopold and the Duchess of Kent honoured the Italian Opera House with their presence. Yesterday morning Princs Leopold, attended by Sir Henry Seaton, attended Divine Service at St. Phillip's Chapel, Water loo-place. The Duchess of Kent attended Divine Service yesterday, and heard a Sermon by the Rev. Dr. Kuper. The Chancellor of the Exchequer and Earl Harrowby are now on a visit to Earl Grenville, at Dropmore. The Countess of Glengall entertained an elegant circle of fashionables yesterday evening at her house in Lower Gros venor-street. It is more than rumoured that Lady Byron is engaged to be married to the Rev. Mr. Cunningham, of Harrow. Sym pathy, as well as gratitude, is often the origin of love.—(Sun day Paper.) THE WESTERN REGATTAS. PLYMOUTH, JULY 22.—Sir JOHN PHILLIMORE yester day gave an elegant entertainment on hoard the Thetis, on the occasion of our Regatta, 150 distinguished persons wen present. The Regatta attracted an immense concourse of spec tators. The first prize was contended for by the cutter yachts Arrow, 84 tons, Joseph Weld, Esq.; Jack-a-Lantern, 140 tons, J. A. Smith, Esq. ; and Scorpion, 110, Sir G. Webster, Bart. The Jack-a-Lantern being a" dandy," was a long time in stays under the Hoe, meanwhile the Arrow shot a head, and rounded the starting boat the first time, nine minutes and a half before the Scorpion, the Jack-a-Lantern gave up the contest,havingear ried away her topmast. The second run, the Arrow, from baffling winds, got into the tide at the west end of the Breakwater, whilst the Scorpion, by tacking further to the southward, was enabled to weather the mark boat, and finally to reach the starting boat first, and gain the prize. It is said, however, that the Scorpion having, contrary to the rules, touched one of the station boats, the prize has been awarded to the Arrow. The second Cup was won by the Julia, James Weld, Esq. beating the Emerald and the Lord of the Isles. The third class, from want of a sufficient number of competitors with Queen Mab, did not sail. The 4th class was won by the Anne yawl, Mr. John Hare, heating the Erato, and Little Venus. The Cups were very beautiful, and considerably exceeded in value those of last year. The largest or Ladies' Cup weighed upwards of seventy ounces. The prizes of eight and finir sovereigns, were won by the Venus, Rundle, and Two Brothers, Goodrige. Four row boats, manned by four men each, for a prize of four sovereigns, was won by a gig belonging to the Britannia flag ship. The Ball and Supper at \Vhiddon's Hotel, under the patronage of Lady Saumarez, was attended by all the principal families, Heads of Depart ments, and Officers of the Army and Navy at the port and neigbourhood. FUNERAL OF TILE DUKE OF ST. ALBANS.— This morning the remains of this Nobleman were removed from St. James's-square to the family vault at Redburne, in Lincolnshire. It WWI con ducted very privately, and as early as half-past three this morning the body was removed from the state-rooms of the mansion on the shoulders a six porters, and placed in the hearse, drawn by six beautiful black horses, preceded by pages :did attendants, with their battons, &c. Then followed two mourning coaches and four, con taining the principal domestics of the Duke's establishment. On Wednesday next the funeral train will be joined by the present Duke of ST. ALBANS, and his brother Lord FREDERICK BEAU CLERK, as chief tnourners. The procession is ex pected to arrive at Lincoln on F r id ay a f ternoon, when it will lay in state till the next morning, and then proceed to the vault at Redburne, n distance of about 15 miles, followed by the No bility and Gentry of Lincoln and its environs. The KING has given 100 guineas to the " Society of Schoolmasters," instituted in 1796, for the relief of distressed schoolmasters and ushers, and of their widows and orphans. The subscription for the relief of the sufferers by the late fire in Titchfield.street is said to exceed the amount required by upwards of 5001. 'MERCANTILE SHIPPING.

Shaw, Esq. and family, and Wm. Henry Shaw, Esq. were on the Course. BOXERS. The proposed fight between Spring and Ward is not likely to take place, as the friends of the latter unreasonably insist that Spring shall reduce himself to thirteen stone ; which, of course, he cannot conveniently do. Crawley, therefore, has come forward with a regular. challenge to fight Ward for 509/. a side. THE MARKETS. CORN EXCHANGE, JULY 25. Last week there was a tolerable good supply of most descrip tions of Grain. This morning the quantities of Wheat, Bar ley, Beans, . and Pease, from Essex, Kent, and Suftidk are' moderate. There are several vessels in from the North with Oats. The trade for prime Wheat is dull at last week's prices, but all other sorts are almost unsable on any terms. The ex pectation of the ports opening for Barley has completely stag nated this trade. The reports of the Bean crops being unfa vourable, this article is tull 2s. per quarter higher. Pease of both kinds are rather higher. The trade for sweet Oats conti nues brisk, and last week's prices are fully maintained for such, other sorts are dull but not cheaper. The Flour trade remains heavy. , .

The fight continued for some time, when a young man, of decent appearance, by trade a bricklayer, named Thomas lly, came up, and endea voured to prevent the fight, remonstrating with the most active in this disgraceful transaction on the impropriety of their con duct; upon which a fellow, named Tutlaw, who was acting as second, knocked him down, and then kicked him most violently o 3 the lower part of the abdomen. The unfortunate man cried out in dreadful agony, and endeavoured to get on his feet, but fell again, upon which Tutlow and his companions disappeared. Some passengers raised Guy from the ground, but he was completely bent double, and threw up a quantity of blood. By the advice of a gentleman. he was assisted to the Westminster Hospital, and on being examined by Mr. Henry Pitman ' the house surgeon, it appeared the in jur i es h e h a d received were dreadful, one of the principal vessels was frac tured, and the scrotum otherwise destroyed. Every effort that medical skill could direct was used in the most humane man ner, but of no avail ; the unfortunate man expired in dreadful pain. The sensation caused by the shocking circumstance in Chelsea is very great indeed. An inquest will be held on the body this afternoon. STA 881 NG.--A n instance of this revolting crime, at one time very rare in this country, but now become alarm ingly common, we regret to say, happened here last week. Neil Macpherson, a young man, who resides with his parents, in a house in Bridge-street, had gone home, after indulging too freely in drinking spirits. In the other end of the same house, a person of the name of Fairley resides, 1i nd to who se w if e M acp h erson applied offensive l a n guage . Fairley interfered to resent the in sult thus offered, whenthe offender struck him, and drew a knife and inflicted several wounds on the wife about the head and breast ; he then pursued the husband and gave him also several wounds. His parents, we understand, are decent and sober, and have often e xp er ienced such unbecoming treatment from their depraved son, as called for the interference of their neighbours. On seeing the consequences of his unconquerable rage, he entered his own room, locked the door, and escape d b y a back,window; and has, as yet, eluded the vigilance of his pur suers. Fortunately none of .the wounds ate considered of a dangerous nature.— ( &Whig Journal. TUE LONDON JOURNALS. DAILY Extracts from the - 4,llor4ing Papers, July t 5, 1825. [nnrfrrstt Pit Ess.l According to the news from Greece in the Ger man Papers received yesterday the fall of Nava rino was less the result of Ibrahim Paella's strength than of the internal dissentions of the Greeks themselves. Conduriottis had every thing prepared to raise the siege, after the bril liant achievement of Miaulis off Modon, when the soldiery suddenly mutinied in favour of Co locotroni, whom they insisted upon having placed at their head. Conduriottis was obliged to yield, and the seditious chieftain was liberated and in vested with the supreme command. The Moreotes appear to have had no confidence in the talents of the military leaders appointed by the Exe cutive Authority, and they took advantage of the critical moment to compel the Go vernment to submit to the ascendancy of Co locotroni. During these proceedings it was that Navarino surrendered, and Ibrahitn was enabled to make his incursions into the Mores. Since Colocotroni has assumed the command, the numbers and spirit of the army have increased, and there seems to be every reason to expect that Ibrahim Pacha will be crushed before any rein. forcements can arrive to succour him. It does not seem from these ad vices that Colocotroni had violated his oath of obedience to the Government, or abused his' power. Let us hope that a sense of common danger will prevent any of these cri minal excesses, which would certainly and im mediately lead to the destruction of all. Redschid Pacha, it is stated, had began his retreat from Missolonghi. We are glad also to learn that Count Santa Rosa did not peri:, in the defence of Navarina. Ile was severely wounded, but escaped with Alaurocordato, previous to the ca pitulation. [MORNING POST.I The French Papers to the 23d inst. received last night by express, endeavour to make it ap pear that the two camps which are to be formed at Bayonne and Perpignan are to be " rather camps of manoeuvre than observation." This is not quite denying the latter. The fact indeed bears its own inferences along with it, and the assembling of two bodies of troops in the French territory at the two points occupied by the last Army of. Observation within a few miles of the Spanish frontier, showed too plainly that the object is the same, to allow a positive con , tradiction to be given. " What appears cer tain," says the Quotidiennc, " is, that a part of the Regiments stationed in the ninth mi litary arrondissement will be concentrated in the vicinity of Perpignan, and will manoeuvre under the superintendence of Lieut.-General D'Alton, and Field Marshals La Tour du Pin and Baltazar- d'Arcy appointed to inspect them. Those troops, until fresh orders be received, shall not have the 'special Commander which they would have if they formed an Army of Observa tion. The same will be the case with respect to the regiments stationed in the tenth military arrondissement. They will concentrate themselves at Bayonne, under the eyes of Lieut.-General Pellepert and Field-Marshals D'Attremont and Zospfel. It may be remarked, that there is no cavalry in this assemblage ; • the cause of this is obvious. The regiments belonging to that arm are almost all quartered in the North of France, where it is easier to find pasture for their horses than in the . South." It is possible • that some of the reasons which have induced this crea tion of the new Army of Observation, are the changes which have lately taken place in the Spanish Ministry, where the moderate party are not only losing ground, but. have been deprived of some of their chiefs to make room for the re introduction of the most violent Ultras. [THE PUBLIC LEDGER.] Last night we received Ilamburgh Papers to the 19th instant. An article from St. Peters burgh, dated the 6th, announces the arrival, in that city, from Warsaw, of Count Nesselrode, Minister of Foreign Affairs, and of Baron Von Deibitsch, Chief of the Emperor's Staff. On the 2d, there was a Grand Military Parade, in the presence, of the Emperor, and of his two Bro thers-in-law, the Princes of Orange and Wei mar. Upon this occasion, the veterans, of 20 years' standing, wore, for the first time, a braid ing on the left arm, recently introduced. In a few days afterwards, his Imperial Majes ty, accompanied by the Prince of Orange, was to proceed to Novogorod, to examine the Military Colony estalished there. All the resources, moral and physical, of that vast Empire, are thus turned to military purposes; and it is not, there fore, astonishing, that its armies are so numerous, so well organized, and so distinguished for their discipline. Their numerical strength is already computed at more than a million ; and as it is daily increasing, it will be flung, sooner or later, upon the neighbouring States, with the irresistible force of a mountain torrent. The Government, in weilding this- mighty engine, has the consummate art to conceal it, as much as possible, from the eyes of the rest of the world ; and those Govern ments, which are perhaps destined to become the victims of that Colossal Power, instead of taking timely measures to avert the danger, are only solicitous how they can best alienate the affections, and paralize the energies, of their sub jects. The trade of Odessa was very considera ble in the month of May. The exports amounted to 2,600,000 rubles; 96 ships arrived in the port, among which were several Egyptian. In the extensive intercourse which Egypt has established with that port, we have a good idea of the active genius of the Viceroy ; and if Mahomet Ali live some years longer, Egypt, as compared to the rest of the East, will becomea flourishing State,and the centre perhaps of a powerful Empire. Already does the son of this singular personage speak of annexing the Morea to the other possessions of his father ; and as be bas troops, shipping, and money, more than sufficient fur such an enterprise, the probability is, that he will not be disappoint ed in his expectations. Once master of the Morea, he would ( soon, either by force or in trigue, get possession of the Islands; and under the able and liberal rule of %hornet Ali it wettltt not be long before they recovered from the torpid state to which they have been reduced by the de bilitating policy of the Porte. [NEW iIMELI It.is impossible to look around us on the Corn.- bination of Workmen, which are forming in 411 parts of the country, without feeling it necessary to keep a strict watch on theirproCeedingij , sed; to scrutinize carefully their avowed sentiments, and opinions. On Monday last the Ship Sawyers held a meeting ; and on Tuesday the WOrking Shipwrights also held a meeting. The professed object of their assembling %%as to adopt certaiu:r.es, solutions, with the view of coming to anarnicabls . accommodation with th e ir mas t ers ; an d it i s satis factory to observe that even the most stirring - mid zealous spirits among them strongly declared themselves advocates for a prompt accommoda 7 tion of all past differences. If the Workmen are seriously anxious for this object, they "iiiiff not find any insuperable obstacle 'to its attain,: ment ; but we would particularly •recommend them to keep in view the friendly waroing . of 11r. Dealtry, the Chairman of the West Riding •Ses:. sions, in his address to the Grand Jury. The Worthy Magistrate said, " it might be well , for every mechanic to be exceedingly attentive to the opinions and movements of those by' Whom he is guided, to assure himself of the soundness and reasonableness of the measures recomr mended, and that his own jue.gment may Ise satisfied, that what he is advised to is for the ge neral good of the mechanics, and not detrimental to the interest of the trade in general, and so ulti mately detrimental to themselves: and they should also be cautious that there 'prevails no in fluence, from passion or prejudice, which they ought by no means to suffer." To this admo nition we will add another. Let them not in dulge tire flattering belief that because work. is plenty now it will always be so. Let them think of a rainy day, arid remember that if they de mend excessive wages, they do but increase the advantages which foreign shipping has in too many instances over British. In Mr. Cock':: " case of the London Dock Company," it is stet. ed that in the short time which has elapsed since the passing of Stat. 4, Geo. IV. c. 77, (the 18th of July 1823,) by which Act foreign ships were allowed to import and export to and from the countries to which they belong, on the same terms as British ships, " a vast increase has already taken place in the number and tonnage of foreign vessels arrived from the north of Europe, and a very general opinion still prevails among Ship : . owners, that unless the Registry Laws be repealed, to admit of their building their vessels abroad, or that great reductions take place in the price of materials for building and victualling, accompanied with a reduction of wages in this country, British shipping will, in a very; few years, be wholly superseded in every trade, in which a foreign vessel can be employed." An ac count is subjoined, the result of which is, thatitt the trade with Norway, Sweden, Denmark,Pruss sia, and Germany,comparing 1824 with 1822,th - ere was an increase of 688 Foreign ships, compt'r diti 123,323 tons and 5,117 men, and a decr ea s e of 58. British ships, comprising 12,201 tons, and 513 men. In the trade with Russia and Belgium,— Increase of 324 foreign ships, 30,361 tons, 1,279 men—decrease of 161 British ships, 16,060 tons; and 877 men. In both trades together, an in crease of 1,012 foreign ships, 153,584 tons, 6,392 men; and a decrease of '219 British shiliS, 28,261 tons, and 1,390 men. These circumstances certainly deserve the serious consideratiow:ot. the English working shipwrights, who cab not doubt that what is detrimental to the trade in general must be detrimental to their own personal' interests; and who must be sensi ble that, if they demand excessive wages, they will make it impossible for the British builder to enter into competition with foreigners, anti . that hence must ensue the total ruin of the ship- ping trade, and the transfer of the capital 'to other countries. [MORNING HERALD.] In addition to the remarks we made the other day relative to the Post Office, we have to notice another disinclination to an improvement in the saute quarter, which it was generally suppiised would have taken some time since; we mon ui itt the extension of the limits of the Twopenny Post in proportion to the enl arge d state °Obi metropolis, from new buildings ; and also that some sort of livery or costume would hitee been provided for those by whom this part of the public service is now performed. In reference to the first of these objects, one would imagine that it could not require a ma inent's consideration to show the absurdity .of different parts of one and the same street Lein: considered in town and country, and ai -such• subject to different rates of postage ; and of ttAit part which is doomed to rustication pay in highest rate, and having at the same time twO.or three deliveries less in the day. The obvious thing is to draw a new line for the Twopenny Post deli very —say a circle of three, four, or five miles from the Royal Exchange, or rather, fromSamer set Muse, which is the centre of the metropolis; and it would be advisable, we thiiik, at the_same time, to extend the limits of the Three-penny Post to fifteen or twenty miles instead of To be sure this latter suggestion might be -ques tionable on the score of expellee. It would ne cessarily include a better description of convey ance than the horses on which the melt now tra vel, which seem alike destitute of flesh, corn, and speed. There is no doubt but that by the want of accommodation in these respects, as well as those mentioned in our former article upon the subject, the post office revenue is much dete-, riorated, many letters being sent by coacheis and other conveyances, which would go by post, were the facilities for their more prompt and ex tensive delivery provided for in the way we have suggested. We are sorry that the Session of Parliament has passed away without the subject. being noticed there ; and we hope. that the ne cessity for its being done in the next will be. obt viaced by a speedy and effectual attention to if,. on the part of those, whose duty it is to make the; department over which they preside, at once alt
