This .is. quite :wrong ; he ought, on the contrary, to make every person sit down during the .perfor mante of. the play; but the Latin says,nen ses sum ducat, let him not conduct any person to his seat, because in doing so he must pass before the benches (cuneos), which would incommode the spectators. 1.. Levee has sometimes also imitated Plautus in inaccuracies of expression, which occur more than once. Ile is also mistaken in his notes on the Sesame, which he confounds with the wheat of :Turkey, and on the solstitialis herbs, which is the silphion of the Greeks, the laserpitiuni of the Latins, the condurdon of Pliny, and not a herb which withers quickly. I have only one more mark to add•; it is not, as he supposes, with refer ence to the .Grecian Sea that the Adriatic. is : Called mare superum, but with reference to the Tyrrhenian. Sea, which was the mare inferum of the Romans. . Z-. • NEXT T UE S DAY LOTTERY BEGINS -ALL lIIONEY.THREE OF. 30,000 ! ! ! -NOT TWO BLANKS TO A PRIZE.--E 30,000 FOR THE FIRST ' ' .

The. French Papers of Wednesday, Brussels Journ a l s , and a liamburgh Mail, have arrived since our last. They do not bring any decisive intelligence respecting the determination of Rus sia, but their tone is decidedly warlike. A Nu remberg arti c l e s t a t es , t h at i n every part of the Turkish Empire the general belief is, that war is ine vitabl e ; and though the Ottoman Govern ment studiously circulate reports to counteract thi s •, n Pression, yet the. Franks do no, allow thems e l ve s to be deceived by them, and are rnakin e ar rangements to meet that event, which we are inclined to think will shortly be deter !tined. 11 e have received the Quebec Gazettes to the 3d f September, and shall on Monday give carious extracts from them. In the mean time, we beg leave to call the attention of our Readers to the Resolutions of the Merchants, &c. of Montreal, inserted in another column. In our P aper of the 2Gth ult. we published the .Resolu ti°os of a Meeting of Merchants, &c. held at Quebec on the 16th of August, in which the Po lies) justice, and necessity, of permitting the Produce of the Canadas to be admitted for consumption into the United Kingdom, were, in ou r opinion, clearly demonstrated. The Meetin g at Montreal re-states the substance •Pr the Quebec Resolutions, and further de clares, " that the greatest possible quantity of grain and flour, the produce of these 'provinces, which could be exported, would bear so small a PT° P I)C tiOUr to the consumption of the inhabi tants Of the United Kingdom, that the average Prices there would be affected by the admission that produce in so trifling a degree, as ,to prevent 11try lo . the British Agriculturists." 'Even though `eura:Plia-nce with the dernanklUor the Canadas sho u l d . '"2 -in som e cons id era bl e degree, injure the —ritish Land-Owners, we do not see that that pro spective consequence is sufficient. to deprive them of the fair and reasonable clainis which they have • set • 4 P. But if the concession of their claims' could be attended With-no injury to.the British agriculturists, it is obvious that perseverance in a e " rs e of policy which is absolutely entailing r ain upon the colonies, ought to be'deprecated by all Parties and that Parliament ought to take .4s' the injurious restrictions complained of _with mutilelaY. It is a striking instance of the intper -4tti°ll of the existing social arrangements in all "4a t4ries,' to find it resolved by the Montreal keet,..„ CC taat from the increasing population of these, povinces, the distress now felt must extill244 e if on r grain and fl ou r continue to be , 14 45 - from. th e B r i t i s h sa l e and vorisumplion."

MA LTIIUS'S, arithmetical and geometrical ratios ? In the Canadas, it appears ; that with an increasing population, 'population is 'so far from pressina upon the means of subsistence, that their only complaint is of. the. restrictions vitiaf'Orev'ent them from sending their redundant means of subsistence to this country ! The Irish affairs are putting on a more favour able appearance. The energy of ,Povertnt...nt, and the appeaiance of a strong military, force, have" had considerable effect in al:eying the sa . • gage fury of the riotous peasantry, The Catholic Priests are represented, by the.. Dublin. newspa pers, to have been most active and successful in their endeavours to bring, their tlo'cks back to due subordination, and .bave -induced them to deliver up the arms which they had phuidered in the course of their outrages; and the Magistrates have latterly been watchful. • In addition to the_ flourishing state of our various Manufactures in Yorkshire, Lancashire, and the West of England, we are happy to in ,form our Readers, upon the best zrathority, that a briskness has lately been infused into the Coal trade in the 'North, by reason of the increased demand for coals, which is producing the most beneficial consequences. All the leading col lieries on, the Tyne have as many orders as they can well execute ; and, 'What is of 'still greater moment,. the ship-owners have had such an in crease of freight within the last two' or three weeks, as renders the carrying trade advan tageous indeed compared with the former rates.

The discove ries which they have made are, we understand, highly gratifying and important. The private letters by the Lisbon . mail state, that the Portuguese Cortex have passed a decree mposing a duty of 80 . milreas (about 201.) per pipe of 110 gallons on all foreign' brandy ; and 10 milreas on that distilled in Portugal, import ed into the idand of Madeira. The previous duty was 20 milreas.

A truly melancholy accident, we are grieved to state, took place near Newcastle-upon-Tyne on Tuesday morning last, at the celebrated Wallsend colliery, the property Of MATTIIM RUSSELL, Esq., I3rancepeth Castle. At about 8 o'clock A. M. a dreadful explosion took place : the report was equal to the noise made on the discharge of a large piece of artillery. It was in a new seam, called the Bensharn Seam, that the hydrogen gas fired ; but how or by what means it happened remains unknown. The number of lives lost is forty-nine, of which nearly one-third is composed of boys. Two men only were saved, but they are unable to offer any assignable cause for the sad occurrence.

The performance of Miss BLAKE increases in merit and attraction on every repetition of The Beggar's Opera, which possesses so much intrinsic humour, and sn many satirical strokes at various classes of mankind, that it is likely always to retain its station on the Stage, and its influence on the public. There was a numerous audience last night, and the applause was liberally be stowed on tote w hole of the performers, but the chief division fell to the share of Macheath and Miss Cosh's Yollq, Match-Zireaking is another good hit for the Theatre, and no piece can be better supported in the representation. The Comedy of She stoops to conquer, announced for the Haymarket Theatre to-night, is, we find ; prevented from performance by the sudden indis position of one of theshief actors, and Captain Macheuth therefore takes the road, again this evening. Miss \Vreso4, after the conclusion of her en gagement at the ! Bath Theatre, goes .to Italy for professional improvement. The Edinburgh Theatre opened on Monday -for the season. The entertainments were The Wonder, and The Coronation. Mrs. H. SIDDoN's appeared as Violante, in the comedy, and her re ception of course could not but be gracious. Most of the 'performers remain who belonged to the company last season. The complete suit of steel armour worn by OLIVER, CaomwEer, which is a most unique piece of workmanship, is now being repaired and polished at a manufactory at Sheffield. VVNITIL tTION.--Thtt system of ventilation lately introduced into this town by Dr. Mryr Ea, and which an experience of a few 'years has proved to be No eminently useful in many of oar public institutions, has been lately applied for a purpose, not, perhaps, originally contemplated by its author, namely, the ventilation of our large tobacco warehouse. It appears that the merchants engaged in this branch of comarerce haVe annually sustained very :considera.ble losses from the tobacco heating, ,as they conceive, in consequence of the closeness of the ware .house ; and theY last year memorialised the Treasury. to have 'it ventilated under Doctor! Meyler's directions. This gentleman has been .accordingly sent down from London, 'and the ventilation of 'the warehouse is now completed under his superintendence. By alterations made in .the windows, originally placed in the roof, they have been made infinitely more effec tual in promoting a circulation of air than they formerly were ; and a variety of other judicious expedients have been employed to bring air into the building, and to promote its 'circulation in every part. In fact, the :wind, from whatever quarter it may blow, is now made emitrently available to effect this measure... The large circular brick pillars which are placed in the 'centre of the warehouse to support the roof and. to carry off the water, are, in consequence of some , alterations, made available to ventilation also, anti they bring a large body of air into places not -previously adequately supplied with it. We trust,' therefore, .that the advantages expected by . Ahe.mernhatits -from the ventilation .of the ware- tionse, will he fully real4ed, as they certainly cannot now attribute any injury their tobacco may-sustain to want of air.--( Liverpool Courier.)
