The chief charader in the Piece is Fairfax, a Solicitor, of great credit, and who, till a very short time before the opening of the Piece, has uni tbrmly maintained a high reputation for probity . and feeling. Having, however, become the inheritor of considerable pros perty belonging to a rich old man ? whose nephew he had ap. peared to patronize, Fairfax begins very rapidly to lose his credit; particularly as he appeared to be an intimate con nexion with a worthless Attorney named uil let, who is sup posod by fraudulent means, to have become possessed of the fortune °fa Mr. Melford. Matters remain in this dubious state, and Harry Headlong, the Nephew, whose proper ritance Fairfax has obtained, arrives in London, in expedas tion of getting at once into possession of the vast fortune left by his Uncle. Harry headlong, with agood heart, is a wild young man; who has already squandered two fortunei by generous profusion. He soon becomes acquainted with Transit, another thoughtless but well-meaning young man. Harry . has a high opinion of Fairfax, and soon quarrels with Transit, because the latter speaks ill of Fairfax. Transit is arrested, and an intended duel is, prevented.—Transit had concluded himself in such a wild manner, thathis wife Eliza, who is the Niece of Sir Ralph A;pen, is induced to separate from him, chiefly, however, owing to the artful falsehoods of Sir Ralph. Eliza, finding her Husband is in town, puts on a mask, and has an interview with him. Knowing he is in distress, she gives him a pocket-book, containing bank notes, which he presents to Harry Headlong, who takes it to relieve the distresses of Melford, and for that purpose gives it to Caroline. Melford, the daughter of the latter.—lt pears that Harry had seen Caroline at a Masquerade in Italy, and had conceived a violent attachment to her, but never could afterwards find her.. Melford and his daughter reside in the same hotel with Sir Ralph and Eliza, and the Ladies are acquainted. When Headlong visits the hotel, for the purpose of relieving the necessities of 31elford, whom he had known in happier days in Italy, Caroline conceals herself under her veil for some time, but afterwards lets Headlong know that she is the objed aids solicitous search.—Eliza, seeing the pocket-book which she had.pres,ented to her Hus band in the hands of Caroline, and hearing It had been given to her by a young man, naturally concludes that it was an offering of gallantry, and is full of jealousy. Transit, on a subseque.it interview, really does pay gallant homage to Ca roline, but he suppose his own wile is dead: 'These mat.: lers, howeVer,_ are all explained, and the only rethain ing mystery rest* upon the conduct of Fairfax.. At length Fairtax, who seems to have acted 'a very myste rious part, summons all the charaders together, in order to vindicate his conduct. He severely reproaches Harry Ilea& long fur not attending the calls of a dying Uncle, though Fairfax had earnestly conjured him to return to England. In defence of himself for getting postession of. Harry!s Inherit ance, he alledges that the Testator left his' thrtune to one who was likely to use it properly,. rather than to one who was likely to sacrifi ce i t by extravagance He then gives - larry the Titk-deeds of the estattl, 'and also restores those o rs t o i f t r rs ,p M n e e ß :y a l ,: T h which Sir ietrraakillpesi tilas, betrayaltobtainedicittort issue s r i o uei oi% sels, whom he deserted, c o o a n t cl i u le si ll o s n ki F s a iy ir and who died soon - after.

If Mr. HoLcitorr had not acknowledged him. self to be the Author •of this Piece, there would have been little doubt 'of its draMatic Parentage. It haa all that misanthropic, cheerless, gloomy, un comfortable Philosophy, which has generally ap peared in his dramatic Produaions. In this Play, he has borrowed from himself, but has not 'improved his literary credit by' the loan. Fairfax is a clia -rafter which he has 'taken 'frOm . a 'play which he brought forward many years ago at Drury-Lane Theatre, under the name of Dnplithy.. Han:) , Head. long is the Harry bopton of his Road to Pnin, Only placed in different situations. Quilled Is the scoun. drel Scrivener in the same play. The rest of . the charklers have nothing peculiar in thetia, and their prototypes, may easily be lound in several other pieces. The plot is by no Means clearly developed, and all that is distinaly 'con • Ceivable is full of impr o b a bili t i es . The piece is, indeed, founded Upon the model of the German Drama, ',which has. already contributed to corrupt the taste of our Dramatic Writers with false no , tions of Humanity anti Honour. The Dialogue is • written with strength, but there is -no criking , elegance or felicity of language. • The sentiments are hyno means new, or very forcible, and there is . 1 • no novelty or brilliancy of ithagery in any of the bursts of Passion, or sallies of Humour. The most whintsiCal incident in the piece, and which seems to have some pretence to novelty, arises from the means by which Transit effects the escape of I/rad/ow from a Bailiff, who comes in the linguist of a Foreigner. After Headiank .is gone, Transit exults in the success of the artifice, banters the Bailiff; who, it appears, came in -reality ar..•' rest Transit himself. , Mr. Hot, c ;tour cannot have read Mr. Rt. . • DAN'S excellent dramatic satire The C r i t ic, other wise he would not have diEcovered at the conclusion of the Play that Transit, was the son of Sir Ralph, an event that retninded the Audience of " Thongs jenkins,". and excited a general and hearty laugh when the re/aria/Is/4 was made known. The attempts at gaiety in this Piece are very heavy, and it is upon the whole languid and tedious. It is very well represented by the Performers, but JOB himself would be unable to sit through asccoi t id exhibition.

This part affords much variety of feeling and manner, and be• • did ample justice to all its variations. 1 Its labour ing oar i n a great degree depended upon DowToN, who displayed the qualities of a gimi Adoe ; and. , all the °bite:lion' Which we can,inake against him, will , , oe.comprizeu in what Cusritcutt.t. says of Love, a respedable Performer of his day, " in somelov particulari he failf, " Same few puticulAi.; wAcry node pzev4il>." Mt. jottomq *tut MI fire and spiiit in Viza, awl Mrs. Pora was at least tolerable in Caroline. COLII?4EantI CHI R Y acquired Math , applause in their respective charaders. The Piece was re ceived very kindly throughout, and if there was any opposition at the conclusion, it was very faint. An allusion to the Jews in the Prologue, which speaking of Actors, says, " We fear the (ennuis, Magazines, Reviews, We#. fear the Christiittts, and we tear the Yrwti" was received with very great success. The Epilogue was a hurnourous versification of the old story of the .?2liaker who gait- the dog an , ill-name. it was delivered with much humour by Mrs. JORDAN. The House was crowded in all parts before the Play- began, and the Audience distingUished them. selves by a patient disposition to Hear Both Sides, and to suffer MERCY to give the vedia. TILE OPERA HOUSE. Til E Serious Opera of Hero, was again perform. ed at this Theatre on Saturday night.' Mrs. Bit.- LINOTON gave all her songs with her usual excel. fence. V I GANONI, as we have before observed, is a perfedly corred singer, but he is not heard beyond the Orchestra; in the Duet in the Second Ad, his voice is so weak, that it is difficult to dis. cover whether he is singing or not. This is a great fault, and should, be corrected.; he need not be afraid of overpowering Mrs. BILLINcrox. The Ballet of La Faire de Batavia followed, which was well received. COR AL LI 'S dancing is delightful. Madame PAR I SOT made her appearance for the first time since her accident. We hope this . charming and elegant Dancer will in future take better care of•herself---her absence must always be a draivback upon the amuf;ement of this Theatre. The House was genteelly filled, Pit and Gallery, as usual, overflowing. Hyde Park has not contained so great a crowd since the Review of the Volur.reers, as assembled yesterday to see the Skaiters. At half past three, about four thousand people were on the ice, and more than double that : number on the banks of the Serpentine giver. The North side of the, Serpentine was lined with carriages, three deep, and - the string of them reached back to the Piccadilly gate, and forward nearly round the ring. The Skaiters were numeroui ; but the chosen hand took their ice facing the carriages, on. the North side, near the Ranger's house. Here a' Tarty of eight or nine young men of fashion, all of them of `handsome persons, and graceful skaiters, displayed the ornamental flourishes of the art to the amusement of a numerous ,circle, many of them 'per sons of the fi rst rank. Among these Skaiters were the Marquis of LoikNit, Lord. VuLfEas, SHELLEY, Ciptains CAuLt. I Litt) and. UP T 9 ice in this part proteded from . the north winds by the trees, was not so strong as farther east, and it obviously sunk or rather bent doWn, as, any person. moved along. At last the ice gave way in a part of the circle, and two 11dies, a gentleman, - and a girl about fourteen; sunk..-Fortunately it was near the shore, and the water was not more than three feet deep. The ladies and gentleman were .soon got , out, leaving theic muffs, tippets, and hats, floating behind, with no other injury than a good ducking, and a great fright ; but the girl Was so overcome with the fright, that she was falling down, sinking, and would,sobn have disappeared under the ice, had not Lord Vl4l. t EP.s . leaped in and ;aced her. The dripping party were condtigled to the • Ranger's house. The Gentleman who is to appe:a in the . part of Hamlet, on Wednesday. next, at Covent. Garden Theatre, is Captain CAti t. F t ELD, who performed Hottpir with so much applause atikochester, and the Nic Theatie Bath continues lextremely well attended. The ;omens have provell very attratlive; on the, nights on ltl whieimcoN's Seasons were performed, about one thousand persons were present, and on' the other nights eight hundred, The trial 'of.Mr. PELTIER, for a libel on the Fienell Government, is to come on in the Sitrings after this Term. On 'Flinn/day last an inquisition was held at the Portland Coffee.house, Portland.screet, before G. Houastix, Es 9. Ills Majesty's Coroner for the County of Middlesex, on view of the body of WILLIAM COLQUIIOIJN, whose unhappy fair we rOntioned in our Paper on Ftiday and Saturby when the Jury brought in a vcrdit of frorgo'. The unfortunate Gentleman was formerly in the Guards. His country seat was at Elston Lodge, near Bedford. A singular attempt to commit sideide, occurred yesterday evening, at the Cheshire Cheese, Fleet street :—A respeitable-looking young man, who had frequently been in the hotts'e, who had conduaed himself with propriety,and who, from his eppeatance, and dther circumstances, iisupposed to be a Clergy. man, after dining, and offering up large libatiods, suddenly left the room iii a state of extreme intoxica. tion ;in a short time the report of a pistol was heard, some Gentlemen in the house instantly ran into the yard, where they foUnd elie young man in the greatest perturbation, his mouth bleeding most co piously, and the pistol, on their entering .the yard, thrown from him. He appealed, at first, much agitated; and declared he was a dead man." Nothing further than a violent contusion of the lip, howeVer, - appeared to 'have taken place, anti whether the pistol was loaded with ball or not, is yet unknown. On his being tdken into the house, and qnestioned as to his inten tion, he said, had his design taker; place, he should have been now in Heaven. In some further conver sation, he, in a very incoherent manner, attempted to justify suicide. ,On being asked where he lived, he said in Mourn.street, Lambeth : his conduit, evincing eVery mark of insanity, Whether from in toxication, or otherwise, it was deemed necessary to place' him in a state of security until the mon:- ing ; he was therefore taken to the Compeer. About one o'clock on Saturday, a man threw himself over 'London Bridge ; he was , hurried by the orrplt from tb... water-works arch, under a vessel ; his body disappeared, and is not yet found. He hid for some time been mentally deranged, AIOHARD PENNECK. ' I , s THE late Mr. PENN ECK, Oi ; Me Britis h rvitiseuer, deserves more di in a mere record of his death. 112 wit' a Man tifili - stfnguished 'talents, and the est sense of probity and honour. A firmer arid elore persevering fiend never existed. He never thouglit any thing a toil or a trouble that enabled Blip fo. • serve those whom he had reason to deem meritori ous objects Of regard. He was descended from a very respeelable and antient family .in the .County of Cornwall; He was himself the son of a yoonger Brother, and was educated for the Church., Ile entered early in life at Trinity 'College, 'Cambridge. When the Earl of Batisroe went Ambassador to Madrid, Mr. PENN ECK was.chaplain of the em bassy, but did not, as is usual in' such situations, receive any patronage from` Goveroment, and , he Was tOUalifident and too delicate to press his preien. lions. , His chief, and, Indeed, only patron, was the late Earl: of GODOLPHIN, to whom his father was steward. By the interest of, this most estimable and amiable Nobleman, Mr. PENN kit betame Rec tor of St. John's, Bermondsey, and of Abinger in the County of ; Surrey.' By the same friendly pa'tronage Mr. PENNECK *obtained situation in flit. , British Museum. The gratitude of. Mr. 'PENNEGK towards this Nohleman, never- Abated in his mind, but to his last moment. he spoke of him with veneration and regard. •. , Mr. PENNECK was also Chaplain to the turd ORFORD, who irnmediately preceded the late Ho- RAC E WALPOLE, and succeeded Dr. SUB BING - as LeElurer of St. Catherine Cree, in Which situation his abilities as_an eloquent Preacher :were highly distinguished. He has left Many manuscript Sermons, , which we hope will not be lost to the Public. Mr. PENNECK was through life the viaim: of an, .hereditary Gout, which disabled hiin from all a6ive.: exertion for somismonths in every year, and finally put a period to his life. If lie had not' suffered under this severe malady, his constitution, would most pro- • bably have prolonged his life tua very ; late period., As a proof of the benevolence of his dispositton, it should be mentioned, that he proposettre 'three of, his friends, the formation of A CLUB, for the pur e pose of assisting any unfortunate persons that might be known to any of the parties, conceiving that though one man could do, little to encourage Cr:. rims, or relieve DIsTRESS, foor persons might co-operate with effeet. This amiable association consisted of Mr.' BE isNyce, Dr. WtaNeß, Mr. RAMSAY, all Clergymen, and Mr. Cattle, 'ceptor ro Sir Jams Sr. A URIK, and to Sir AB RA_ HAM HUME. The good Offices which were etfaked' by this beoevolent combination, litany persoi'ls now alive have reason'to'retnemb6 with gratitude. All the ; Members of this philanthropie confederacy are now - no more: Mr: PENN . ECK, the founder, and the last survi#or ,of this humane InstitutiOn, paid the- debt of nature on Saturday last, in the Seventy-fourth year of his age, to the re, gret of a numerous body of intelligent fiends,' ho venerated his virtues, and have often enjoyed the pleasure arising from his good sense, his. knowledge of the world, hiS friendly zeal, and his solid and unostentatious learning.
