THE THEATRES. COVENT,GARDEN.—Der Freischntz was the first performance last night. Miss PA TOY came forward as Bertha, with her health and musical powers fully restored. Miss Love also made her entre, in Lena ; and COOPER, for the first time, gave all requisite energy to the part of Caspar., ENGLISH OPERA Ili:usu.—Though the season at this Theatre is very brief, yet we feel plea sure in stating that it has been very successful. It concluded last nigh . _ with The Shepherd Boy and The Padlock. It is no more than justice to observe, that the Proprietor, Mr. .ARNOLD, has, by the experience of many years, proved *himself fully qualified to conduct a concern of this na ture. But not only by the judicious management of the Theatre, in bringing forward performers of established merit; he has also introduced new talents to the public; he has presented pieces of dramatic excellence written by himself, as well as others, and his Broken Promises and Shepherd Boy this year are abundant proofs of his literary talents and his power of exciting mirth or tender sym pathy. Perhaps the circumstance of his not being an actor himself may have negatively given him an additional claim to public confidence, as he cannot be suspected of invidious rivalry or of an illiberal repression of rising talents. By his pa tronage, Miss GREY, the pupil of Miss KELLY, and no better tutor could be found, has displayed talents which have been deservedly admired. Miss HAMILTON also, who has had the advantage of the same able tuition, has acquitted herself to the satisfaction of the Public. Miss GowA an like wise has displayed musical and theatrical talents' of no ordinary description. When we add to these the engagement of B►tAHAat, Miss PAToN, Miss STEPHENS,' MATHEWS, BARTLEY, COOPER, WRENCH, POWER, Miss KELLY, a host in herself, and who can doubt the judgment in selection and the liberal patronage of the spirited Proprietor of this Theatre, or that he fully deserves the warm patronage of the Public. That patronage, to the credit of the Public, he has received, and as we are persuaded that he will continue to deserve it, we confidently hope that he will receive it through every future season.—Mr. BARTLEY last night took leave of a very numerous audience, on this occasion, with the following Address, which was received with unanimous and reiterated ap plause :-- " LADIES AND GENTLEMEN—According to annual cus tom, I appear before you, as the performances of this evening terminate our short Summer Season. " I have to express our sense of gratitude for the very li beral patronage which the English Opera House has received. " The various exertions which have been made to merit your favour—the engagement of all the first-rate talent within the reach of the Proprietor—the great expence incurred by , the production of the Opera of Tarrare' and other Novel ties have been, I am happy to 'say, repaid by the liberality of the public, which enables the Proprietor to promise that the preparations for their amusement next season shall be marked by increased energy. " The Proprietor trusts that, in the production of SALIERen Grand Opera of Tarrare,' he has sustained that high musi cal reputation of the Theatre which it acquired by the first in troduction to the public of the-celebrated Dcr Freischutx e and he begs to state, that he has already in preparation for the next Season more than one Opera, which he believes will be found equally worthy of your approbation. " Permit me, Ladies and Gentlemen, to offer you the sin cere thanks of the Proprietor, and in my own name, and that of all the Performers, to bid you respectfully farewell." THEATRE ROYAL, EDINBURGH, OCT. 4.—Misg FOOTE made her first appearance here last night in the cha racter of Letitia Rarely. Long before the doors were opened, an immense crowd had collected round the Theatre, and the whole area of the pit was filled with gentlemen, principally young men. There were very few ladies in the pit; but upwards of twenty were seated in the lower boxes at seven o'clOck, and a great number entered after , the performance had begun. Several ladies,_ who could not get accommoda tion in the pit, went to the second boxes. As each party of ladies made their appearance, they were saluted with cheers and hisses. The malcontents were almost entirely con fined to the galleries. Miss Foote's supporters were chiefly in the pit. When the curtain drew up, Messrs. Denham and Lee, who first came on the stage, were received with tumultuous applause, mixed with hissing, and cries,of " Off, off,"— "Murray, Murray,"—" Manager,"—" the Manager." This uproar lasted for a minute or two, and the play then proceeded. All the performers, as they came forward, were received with applause, particularly Mr. Jones and Mr. Mackay. When Mr. Murray. as Flutter, appeared, " Kean, Kean,"— " What did you make of Kean," was loudly vociferated from the galleries. After an ineffectual attempt to go on with his part, he advanced to the front of the stage, and addressed the audience in nearly the following words : " Ladies and Gentlemen, with Mr. Kean I have nothing to do; nor can I properly be called on to account for his non-appear ance in Edinburgh. When that gentleman was under a late engagement, I felt it my duty to inform him, that a party was forming here against him. Ile then voluntarily renounced his engagement. had he adhered to it, I should have felt bound in honour to have brought him forward." This brief speech was received with three hearty cheers, and the piece went on till Miss Foote came on the stage, when another scene of tumult ensued. It, however, lasted but for a moment. It was evi dent that her friends were more numerous than her enemies.— She appeared to suffer a considerable degree of alarm. Iler late misfortunes have had very visible effect on her personal at tractions. Lord Cochrane and a number of fashionables were in the boxes. Madame CARADORI ALLEN, with her husband, is rusticating in the country, after her great exer tions and fatigues at the different Provincial Music Meetings. Madame CARA nortx returns to her station at the King's Theatre in December, and will resume her station in the serious Opera of II Crociato, at the opening. Miss FooTE's engagement in Whitehaven h as been extremely productive to her and the mana gers, and her reception there bordered on enthu siasm. The same success followed her to Car. lisle, where, on Thursday last, notwithstanding the prices of admission were all raised, yet the theatre overflowed in fives minutes after the doors were opened, and there were hundreds dis appointed of getting in. Miss STEPHENS will return to London after reaping a most profitable provincial harvest, having received 1,000/. for the exercise of her fine talents at four music meetings, in addition to her various profits arising from her engage ments. during the summer, at the diifferent coun try Theatres. It is rather a singular fact, that in the House list of Performers, engaged for the present sea son at Covent Garden Theatre, the ❑ame of Mrs. J. BRADSHAW (late Miss TnEE) is inserted as one of the company. CROYDON FAlR.—Yesterday the amusements of this mart of festivity terminated " amid the thrilling of trumpets, and the clashing of symbols." Richardson's Theatre was unusually well attended daring the " merry period," in consequence of its being the proprietor's intention of retiring from the " profession' after St. Alban's Pair. Richardson for the last 30 years has been the leading star at all the pro vincial fairs. ANBCDOT ES, &c. LO RD CHA TH A M .—When Lord CIIATIIAM was Minister, he at onetime wanted a great number of transports to he ready intmediate/N,• which Lord ANSON, the first Lord 'of the Admiralty, told him was impossible. " I must have them directly," said the Minister—" impossible," was the answer. " Come, come," said CUATHAM, " show the possibility directly- 7 -a fleet of colliers has just arrived; throw the coals directly into the Th.:tiles, and put the soldiers on board immediately,—the services of Government must not stand still for a paltry expellee." The Admiralty, however, struck by the firmness of the Minister, soon discovered another species of possibility, and the business was done without resorting to the proposed expedient. OmvEn. CrtomwEr,r, being afraid of cabals fiorn the expelled family, thought it dangerous to permit persons, particularly noblemen, to leave the kingdom without • leave.— A young nobleman in the interest of Charles 11. cause to pay his respects to the Protector, and solicit leave of absence from the country. Cromwell immediately granted the request, but said, " Well, let me see you soon again, but don't see Charles Stuart." " I will not, upon my honour," replied the. peer.— The nobleman soon returned, anti coming to pay his duty to the Protector, Cromwell snatched his hat out of his hands, anti with a penknife quickly cut open the lining, and from the inside took out several letters and papers directed to the friends of Charles. " 0 shame !" cried Oliver, "is this the way the English nobles keep their honour ? Did you rot promise not to sec Charles Stdart ?" " I did not see hint," answered.. the nobleman. "Then," said Cromwell, " who put out the candle, you, or Charles ?" Oliver had cunningly contrived to put a spy of his own into the peer's service, who discoverCd that at the interview the King first put outthe lights. Lord STRANGFoan, who previously had only an Irish title, was, at the commencement of the present year, created a Peer of the Realm, by the title of Lord Penshurst.— Ile is the last in the Roll of Garter King at Arms, delivered to the House of Lords by Sir George Nayler at the beginning of the last Session of Parliament ; his Lordship is there thus de scribed, 's Percy Clinton Sydney Smy-the Lord Penshurst."— The English title is taken from Penslturst in Kent, about three miles from Ton bridge. Sir II UNItY WOTTON, who had for many years represented James I. at the Court of Venice, being applied to by a friend who was about to be employed as an Ambassador, for some rules for his negociations. Sir henry gave this for an infallible aphorism---" That to be in safety himself, and service able to his country, he should always, and upon ail occasions, :path ath truth: it seems a state paradox, for," said Sir Henry, " you shall never be believed ; and by this means your truth will secure yourself if you shall ever be, called to any account; and it will put your adversaries (who. will still hunt counter) to a loss in all their disquisitions and undertakings." TnE SPANIARDS IN Cu RA, both -men 'and wo men, are extremely careless about personal'neatness, except on particular occasions. Even in the Havannah it is rare to see a well-dressed man ; and when you do, it is impossible to ap proach within three yards of him without being half suffocated by the smell of tobacco or brandy punch. The ladies usually continue in dishabille all day, and any one who takes the ' trouble of looking into the rooms through-The trellised win dows will see their female inmates habitedin dressing gowns without shoes or stockings, lying on scifas, or swinging them selves in cots suspended from the ceiling ; but in the evening he will meet the same individuals on the Alomoda (a public walk), or in a.ball-room, transformed into showy, elegant, well dressed belles.

The general housing of the Grain has been completed this year with great success.. The flail has yet scarcely come into action, so that the produce cannot be accu rately ascertained ; but we are warranted in saying that the NI - heat is a full average crop, the samples in many cases very fine and heavy ; the price of this necessary of life is rather looking down. The rains have had a very beneficial influence on the land, which works most kindly ; the good active farmers have introduced a great breadth of seed, which begins to put forth the blade most kindly.—There are many stacks of Old Wheat in these counties, so that the New does not Conic into the market so soon as was expected.—Oats and Barley produce better and more abundant than was expected ; the straw is very short, but the grain of the early sown crops is very fine, and obtains good price.—Carrots turn out a very indifferent crop, the rains have caused an abundant top, without a correspondent increase in the root.--Potatoes are still in a growi ng sta t e ; th os e that have been raised areof fine quality, but small.—Lucern and Saintfoin have partaken of the genial rains, and produced a most abundant quantity of green food ; it is not good policy to cut or feed later than the middle of October, it causes the plant to bleed and prevents its very early shoots ,in the spring.—Turnips are w abundant, and very fine : there ill not be any want of spring food, although the Hay-Stack sufrered &f ling the extreme drought of the . summer.—:klangel Wurzel will be a roost re markably fine crop, and abundantly pay the cultivator.-_ Apples and Pears, have equally with the Hops, turned out a very inferior crop, and very much disappointed the grower. Letters from Bang-kok, the chief sea-port of Siam, dated the 3d March, mention the continu ance of the utmost good-will on the part of the King of SIAM towards the British forces in the Burmese territory. lie had recently sent down to Sincapore, as a present to Mr. CaAwrorw,ithe Bri tish resident at that place, 1,000 peculs of sugar, worth about 2,0001. sterling. Owing to the en terprise and good conduct of a few British mer chants, it appears that a very lucrative traffic has beers opened and is now carrying on with Siam. Lorin PoncnEsTEß.—This Nobleman—a poet of celebrity—visited Inverness last week. Monday he visited Culloden Moor, and being informed by his guide that a woman lived in Inverness, who was nine years of age at the time of the Culloden battle, he returned to town for the purpose of having an interview with her. She afforded his Lordship sa. tisfactory information in answer to his numerous inquiries; and finding that she depended chiefly for a subsistence on the small su m of two pounds from one o f th e charitable fund s o f t h e town, he generously ordered th a t two pounds more sh ou ld be paid her yearly for life on his account. Helen Reid, the object of Lord Porchester's bounty on this occasion, was horn on the I9th March, 173 G, and now occupies a comfortless dwelling near the Old Bridge.—(Edinburgh Observer, Oct: 4.) TILE PRICE OF AN EAR.—At the New Bailey Court Room, yesterday, John Vaughan was brought up, charged with having in a fight bitten off a man's ear. An officer of the Court stated' that he had seen the man whose ear had been bitten off that morning, and that he refused to appear against Vaughan ; he had bee , a paid 303. The man was for his ear, and was quite satisfied. , of course discharged.—(3lanchester Advertiser.) THE KING, &c. WINDSOR, OCT. s.—Yesterday afternoon at half-past two o'clock, his MAJESTY, accompanied by the Duke of Welling ton, in his phaeton, left the Royal Lodge, and was followed by the double-bodied phaeton, in which were the Earl and Countess Bathurst, Lady Georgiana Bathurst, and Lord St. Helen's; and an open carriage followed, containing Sir W. lieppel, and others of the household attendants. The Duke of Dorset, Colonel Thornton, &c., rode on horseback. His Majesty, attended by the. whole of the party, drove to the Castle, where he was met by Mr. Wyattville, when his Ma jesty, with the Duke of Wellington and others of the Royal Party, inspected the whole of the improvements carrying on, after which his Majesty returned by the Long Walk, and on passing the middle gate, took the drive across the Park, leading to Queen Ann's Walk, along which he drove and passed by Sandpit Gate, and returned to the Royal Lodge at half-past five o'clock. His Majesty looks extreme ly ,well, and enjoys excellent health.—This- day some addi tional visitors are expected to arrive at the Royal Lodge.— His Majesty and his august company, on arriving at the Castle yesterday afternoon, previously to their inspection of the im provements made and carrying on, entered the state apartments, and viewed the whole of them. His Majesty conducted his distinguished guests through his Council Room and Audience Chamber.—ln the afternoon their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester arrived at the Royal Lodge ; as did also Sir Charles Long : who had the honour of dining and passing the evening with his Majesty. After his Majesty withdrew from the saloon, 'their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester left the Royal Lodge and returned to Bagshot Lodge.

THE KING OF PRUSSIA. PARIS, OCT. 4.—Count Iturrix (the King of Prussia), ac companied by his young son, visited the Royal factory of the Gobelins last Sunday.' He was greatly struck with the im provements made since his last visit, and he often said so to the Baron . Des Retours, the administrator to this magnificent establishment. At noon the King and the Prince his august son, hunted in the wood. of Meudon and its environs. Counts Ruppin, De Revensberg, Rhuntier, De Diepholtz, were at the rendezvous. Her Royal Highness the Dauphiness and ,her Royal Highness the Duchess de Berri followed the chace. The Count Ruppin was at the Academie Royale de INlusique on Saturday night.

Sir WALTER SCOTT is expected in Paris in a few days. The illustrious traveller will be at the hotel of the Marshal Duke of TARENTUII. (French Paper.) Extract of a letter dated Mexico, July 2 : 7 -- " Et has been supposed that this country was more under the influence of Roman Catholic su perstition than the other States of Spanish Ame rica, but the letter of Padre Mier, on the subject of the circular written by his Holiness, and addresed to the Mexican people, will tend, wherever it is circulated, to produce a contrary impression. Dr. Mier's letter has been read and aprroved of by all ranks, and has been copied into the Government Gazette. So much indeed has it been sought after, that another edition has been struck off. As this is the first time that the supremacy of the Pope has been "called in question, we cannot help consider ing the reception this paper has met with as a favourable omen. We trust this will not be the only change that will take place, as we are happy to observe that the existing prejudices in favour of high duties seem to be declining rapidly, and in the ensuing Congress, we entertain hopes that a reduction will take place." DESPERATE A CT.—A letter from Hydra of the 28th July contains the following narration ; a most dreadful one, but unfortunately too cha racteristic of the hatred subsisting between the Greeks and the Turks :—" While the Greek fleet was at anchor off Candle, the Captain of a brig, Athenzeus lireise, having quarrelled with a Turkish slave on board his vessel, struck the fellow, who immediately went below, and having set fire to the powder magazine, blew up the ship, and the Captain, his brother, and sixty seamen perished. On the news of this disaster arriving here, the rage of the populace was excited to the highest pitch, and the most dreadful out ragest i m mediately Turk, who commenced. Si xty T ur , wlowe were confined in the prison, were dragged forth by the mob, and butchered in the most in human manner on the quay ; numbers of slaves in the houses and on board the vessels in the har bour shared the same fate, and in all about 200 Turks are supposed to have been massacred in the course of the evening."

Yesterday afternoon an Inquest wa3 held at the General Penitentiary, Milbank, before Mr. GELL, the Coroner, and a respectable Jury, touching the death of a con vict, John Lamb, aged 19, who died on Monday last of the cholera morbus. The Jury having been sworn, the following evidence was taken : Mr. James Wade sworn.—l am surgeon to the Penitentiary. The deceased has been here four or five months; when he first came here his health was very good ; on the 28th ult. he was seized with cholera morbus ; I was called to attend him l'e tween six and seven o'clock on that morning, and on my going to him immediately, I found him in a very exhausted state, from the severity of the attack. The deceased did not connuu nicate to any person the attack he had till 6 o'clock. Coroner—How was that ?—Witness. The cell-door is not opened till then. I asked him how long he had been ill ? And he said that he believed he had been attacked soon after twelve o'clock. You say he did not communicate with any one. Now could he have done so if he had been so inclined ?-11.1ost certainly he could; there were cells on either side of him, and if he bad knocked, his fellow-convicts must have heard him. How would they have heard the knock—because the cells are very strong, and a knock would not have been heard through them ?—lf he had knocked, the report on . the cell side would have sounded on the ear like thunder, and must have been heard by the turnkeys. . . _ Is it a customary practice among the unfortunate captives to knock at the cell doors when they are in need of assistance ? It is. I asked him when I went to him if he had knocked, and he more than once said he had not. I attended him every day, in company with Drs. White and Bright, and every thing was done for him that his case would admit of, but he died 'on the 3d instant. How many prisoners are there now confined here ?—From 280 to 290. And are any now labouring under the attack of which the deceased died ?—None. There were two attacked the day after with the same complaint, but only one seriously, and they are now quite free from the disease. Do you attach this complaint to any particular cause ? Only to the season of the year. To no local cause ?-..-None ; but probably it was produced by the season of the year. It is a complaint prevailing every where, and we cannot expect to be exempt from it. Coroner--I know it does prevail. People in my part,of the country are dying continually from it.-1N fitness—lt is my opi nion deceased died a natural death. Mr. Jordison White, sworn—l am acting Governor of this prison. The deceased was tried at the Old Bailey on the 7th of April, 1825. He was convicted of stealing two she asses, and sentenced to seven years' transportation, which was subsequently commuted to five years' imprisonment in this Penitentiary. He was received here on the 25th of April, 1825. Coroner.—Are there any officers of the establishment present to shew the Jury the body ? Witness.—There are two, who will render every accommo. dation. The Coroner and Jury were then conducted into an apart ment in the rear of the building, and, on viewing the body, which was placed in a shell, they one and all expressed their satisfaction at seeing such an improved alteration in the prison. Juror—(to Mr. Wade, the surgeon.)—ls the general state of health of the prisoners good ?—lt is. The Coroner said he could not but express the approbation of himself and the Jury of the appearance tie prison now presented. The Jury then returned a verdict of Died by the visita tion of God." 'Yesterday terminated the life of ANNE MOORE, of this town, the pretended fasting woman, in the 76th year of her age. About the beginning of the year 1807 this extraordi nary impostor lived at Tutbury, a village in Staffordshire, when she first excited public attention by declaring that she lived without food, and having offered to prove the truth of her asser. tion by submitting to be watched for a considerable time.—She was at last detected in her imposture by a professional gentle man of the name of Fox, who discovered that her daughter was in the habit of conveying her food daily, and concealing it under the bedclothes.—( Macclesfield Courier.)
