CAMBRIAN VOCALISTS.—:-The ect4orion, or Cambrian Vo calists, • chiefly composed of the. Members of the Royal Cam brian Institution, held their first Meeting - on Saturday last, at the Free-Massons' Tavern ; singing Pinnillion with the Welsh Harp, after the manlier of the Ancient Britons, formed the most prominent part of the entertainment, which was under Parry,the direction of Mr. Editor of the Welsh' Melodies. Mr. 0. Davies performed most delightfully 'on the Cambrian Pedal Harp, with a double row of strings his - variations on "Ar hyd y nos," and " We're a' Noddin," were exceedingly beau tiful, particularly those on the unisons.

TIIE THEATRES. DRUILY4AAN.E.—The lively but improbable Comedy of The Suspicious Husband was again represented on Saturday last.—We may reason ably believe that ifany one, likeßanger,wire really to enter a gentleman's house by,means of a rope ladder at present, he would undergo-the criticism of Sir 11.106 RD BIRNIE, and be treated like thel 'Toms and Jerries of the day, with a. little ex ercise at Brixton, if he did, not suffermore severe strictures. The play, however,was well supported, but it was absurd to see gentlemen draw their swords in the open street, and walk 'in the Park with• their hats Off ;‘ and three Ladies also chatting in the same place without an at tendant. These absurdities are easily avoided by changing the scene of action. We have again to enter our protest against the adaiiiSion of the half-price visitors during the performance.—The scene between Ranger and Clarinda; • one-of the best in the Play, was rendered inaudible on Sa, turday by the noise of box.:doors, the 'trampling of visitors, and-the slamming of benches.---The old practice of half-price admission, between the third and fourth act:, should be'revived . and observed.—ELLlSTQN was all life in . Ran ger ; Mrs. W. WEST, in Jacintha, played with so much spirit that weare persuded a little. practice will render her an' excellent comic Actre§s. Mrs. DAvisoN gave all requisite vivacity to Clarinda, and the subordinate characters were duly sup poked. CovENI7 7 GARDEN,—The Clandestine Marriage, one of the very best of modern comedies, was the dramatic treat on Saturday, and 'a,ll the characters, without exception, were supported in such a manner as-to excite the sympathyand de ' serve the applause which they generally received. GArtalcit,--The story of. Mrs..GAR• RICK'S having' Ordered the play of Hamlet to be thrown into the grave of her husband is ridiculous as well as:falSe. 'No such pantomime telck took place on his .funeral. , The truth is that Mrs. GARRICK .was attached to her husband, because, as she " said, he was always her Lover, but she never understood his merits as an actor, and had but a very imperfect knowledge of the English language. We have already contradicted the romantic story.of her being a natural daughter of the Earl of BURLINGTON ; a story • that could only be fabricated, as Mr.'Bayes says, cc to ele vate and surprize.." The once favourite actress, Mrs. .MATTOCKS, of Covent Garden Theatre, who is now in the seventy-eighth• year of her age, was present on Saturday evening last, to seethe 'entertainments of the night at. Drury-lane Theatre, and appeared in health and spirits. Mr. MAsolst,' the . ,young debutant who lately made his apperance at Covent-garden Theatre in the character of .Douglas, is said to .be.study ing George Barnwell, and his youth • and very interesting figure give tnoch promise of success. Mr.. BETTY,: the ci-devant Roseius, 'so long the admiration of crowded Theatres, in town and' country, has resumed his histrionic pursuits with great vigour. • After making a successful tour to Cheltenham, Gloucester, &C. we now find him playing in the neighbourhood of Shrews bury. On Tuesday last, he , was to have per forrned the . Earl of ,Warzviek and Triitra m Fickle, and, much to his honour, the receipts of the evening were to be appropriated to the poor of a place called Wem. MARTIAL MUSIG or RUSSIA.— A singular species of music delights the Russian ear, and at some distance produces a grand effect, even to strangers. Forty tubes, each producing only one note, are committed to the management of as many performers. The leader of the band beats time with his.foot, if in a chamber ; and in the open air a small drum is:employed to „regulate the intervals of sound— No written music is used ; but practice has produced such pre cision in the band, that' with the , tubes or horns fine modulations are executed. Rever berated by the air, in a situation sufficiently remote, one could imagine an. accomplished •orchestra discoursed sweet music. The Em peror's band consists of 300 horns. The Regi ment of Guards has also a fine set of performers on those primitive instruments, and in calm sum mer nights, during which a soft and uniform twilight preVails, a sail Upon the . Neva, accom- Tallied by another boat with a band, of horns, is an exquisite luxury for the auditory nerves. POETRY. TO A FRIEND IN DISTRESS. Oh say not that thy joys are fled, To bloom on earth na inore ! What tho' thy kindred all are dead : They from this world of grief were led, To greet a smiling shore. And short the hour that steals from thee Their converse and their smile, Time, like a rough but narrow sea, Bears onward to eternity— " Then wait and hope awhile. And think not that for thee above Hope smiles but to deceive : What though that fairest form has flown, And round the universe, not one Thy sorrows can relieve,— Hope oft returns to gild th€ scene Usurp'd by dark despair : And many a bright transparent beam May gild thy future path, serene, With joys'divinely fair. For thee what new delights may rise ! What bliss unknown descend ! Thy woes are blessings in disguise; Sent to allure thee to the skies, Where all our sorrows end. Oh say not then that hope in vain Illuines life's darksome way ! What is thy losS may be thy gain, And pleasures, free from every pain, Shall crown a brighter day. J. 1:. CANOVA. VENICE, OCT. 18.—(PRIVATE LETTER.) CANOVA,' the celebrated Sculptor, died here on Sunday morning the 13th October, at eight A.M. after a short illness. -He arrived here from Rome on the, 4th inst. and felt rather unwell he was soon after.'seized with violent and con tinued vomiting's, attended with convulSive hiccough; not the smallest particle of ,food could remain on his stomach, which brought on so -great a state of debility, that his approaching dissolution was evident. He received the intimation with the greatc4composure,, and died with the utmost resignation— making a codicil to his will, ordering his interment at his native place of Posagno, and leaving his heart to be deposited at the Imperial Royal Academy ofine Arts at Venice, of which he had, long been a Member, and since Chief President. On Wednesday last the body was conveyed to the Cathedral of St. Mark in grand funeral procession, attended by the Go vernor of Venice, the President and Society of the Belles Artes, and Publie Authorities, Members of the University of Padua, &c. and was there plitced on a temporary cenotaph, where a solemn dirge was performed, the Patriarch Archbishop offi ciating. After the service the body was removed to the hall of the eelles Artes; where a funeral oration was pronounced by his friend; Count Ciognara, President of the Society, the Governor, Archbishop, and other personages, being present.— Ile - deliVered the speech with Much eloquence and feeling, making merited eulogiums on his character, and giving a brief sketch of his lifethatllis memory was engraven on the back of the past century, and on the front of the present. Canova was born at Passagno, a small village, about eight miles from Bassano, in the Venetian territory—of humble birth—skewed very early marks of genius, which being noticed by the Venetian Patrician, Faller, whose estates were in the neighbourhood, and had an opportunity of noticing his talents, he sent him to Vienna, placing him under Toretti, the best sculptor of the time ; after whose death he remained sometime with - the nephew, and then began working on his own account in a small shop under the cloisters of San Stefano (Venice); afterwards, his circumstances improving, he removed to the Traghetto . di San Maurizio, • where he had a larger study; whence, in the year 1779, he was called to Rome by the Vene tian AMbassador, a true Maecenas; Cavalier Girolanio Zulian*. By the encouragement he received from the Popes and Nobi lity there, his career was rapid and successful, having adorned the Church of St. Peter and other places with beatiful monu ments. 'When I left Rome in July he appeared in good health, and conducted me through his study, spewing me, amongst other things, the groupe he was making for the Kin., of England— Mar and Venus—which was nearly finished. Every body bears testimony to his great worth ; the qualities of his heart seem to have been equal to those of his head—modest, unas suming, and. charitable—imparting the secrets of his art to stu dents of every nation, and never withheld his pulse from those students who appeared deserving encouragement, and who were necessitous. The' pensions granted to him'. by Popes were chiefly expended in assisting decayed or unfortunate artists in his own profession, their wives, or relatives; while he himself lived with economy, never inflated by the encomiums passed on hisAalents by Kings and Princes. He has been for some time past occupied in building a Church at his native village of Po4sagno ' to serve as the place of his in terment, and for the purpose of having an opportunity of dis playing.a number of his statues and basso rehevos—which, of course,.fs now left in an unfinished state.

His.departure from the accustomed rules excited the attention Of the critics of the day, and occasioned much criticism ; but the opinion of the judges was decidedly in his favour thus establishing his claim to merit. The President said, Canova had often mentioned this circumstance to him, adding, that ihe recollection of it mhde him feel the same degree of painful anxiety, as, at the time it occurred, trade his blood, run cold as. he said.

Friday morning the Valorous, 26, Captain James Murray, arrived at • Portsmouth, from St. John's, Newfoundland, in 14. days, bringing Vice-Admiral Sir Charles Hamilton, Bart., Governor, of that Island, Lady Hamilton, and family. Sir Charles having resided at the seat of his Government foar years, has returned to England on six months' leave of absence. We are happy to hear that the fisheries have been more successful this, than during the last twenty years. In the early part Of the season the catch of seals was very great, and in the hitter part a great quantity of fish was taken. The advantages of this profitable employ will be experienced throughout the winter. All the'ships of war employed on the station are to return home for the winter, except the Grasshopper, 18, Captain Buchan, viz,----the Ranger, 20, Captain P. Fisher; Pandora, 18, ,Capt. Huun; Pelter, Lieutenant Curry,; and the Clinker, Lieutenant Eager. The Pelter and Clinker sailed with the Valorous ; the Pandora is to call at Cadiz; the Ranger was appointed to leave St. John's on the 2r,th. The Thracian" of 18 guns, • Capt. J. W. Roberts, is now at: Clizitham, from which she will sail with the first fair wind to the West India station with dispatches for Admiral Rowley. • The surviving Officers of his Majesty's late ship Dreke, will go through the ceremony of a Court Martial at Portsmouth, for the loss of that ship. • _ _ . . Leiters from the Cape of Good Hope, dated the 22d August, state that the weather had set in fine, but the emigrants in the various localities were suffering severely from scarcity. The Andromache (ComModore Nourse), Leven, Heron, and Bara couta, were in . Symon's-bay. The ship Royal George, which was driven on shore in the recent gales, had been got off, not much damaged. The 6th, 49t1t, and 65th regiments, stationed in the colony, were healthy. His Majesty's ship Morgiana arrived at Bahia, July 23, from Sierra Leone, and sailed for the 'West Indies, Aug. 13. The Blossom, 26, at Bahia, July 30. The Pheasant, 18, at . Pernambuco, Aug. 13, and sailed for Maranaham on the 16th. The Hyperion frigate, Captain Lillicrip, arrived at Barbadoes, Sept. 12, from the Cape of Good Hope. The Rose and Martin arrived at Smyrna, Sep tember 17. - ' The Officers of the Ganges entertained Captain Collier at an elegant farewell dinner, at the George Inn, on Friday, at Ports mouth; and on Thustlay evening (after the ship was paid off) a body of the ship's company landed at Point, and proceeded in procession with a band of music, to the George Inn, to deposit the flag of one of the Persian pirates, which Captain Collier struck, during the 'attacks made on those marauders, in the Persian Gulf, and to give their brave Commander three cheers. The' Russian frigate Kruizer, Captain Lazaroff, accompanied by a Russian Government store-ship, will sail to-morrow from Portsmouth, should the wind prove favourable, for Rio Janeiro and the North Pacific Ocean, to visit the Russian settlements, therein and make discoveries. Friday Lieutenant-General Sir Henry Bell, Colonel-Com mandant of the Royal Marine corps, made his annual inspec tion of the Portsmouth division, commanded by Colonel Robert Moncreifle, on Southsea Common, when the evident perfection of the men in, all the essential , _ qualities of good field soldiers, excited his perfect approbation. There are about 700 men of this distinguished and most serviceable corps at quarters, who take, in turn with the provisional battalion, the duties of the garrison. On Monday the Topaze frigate was paid off at Portsmouth' by Capt. Price Blackwood, and on Thursday the Ganges, 86, by Captain F.. Collier, C.B. and both ships were laid up in or dinary. Their crews received more than four years pay ; and, what is 'more remarkable, most of them soon after ward left the town to visit their native places with the money in their pocket. The Ganges is a remarkably fine teak-built ship, of the first class of second rates, being of the same tonnage as the Conopus, Pompee, and others. No true estimate can be formed of her sea qualities, as, on her passage from Bom bay, she was only temporarily rigged, and had but two guns on board. Her laden, of frame and timber for two ships of the line of a similar class, was deposited in Portsmouth Dock- Yard. The Starling cutter, Lieut. Turner, arrived on Wednesday at Portsmouth, to refit, having carried away the greater part of her rigging, during the recent gales of wind. It is said that the Tartar frigate, which had been commis sioned at Plymouth, by Capt. Thos. Brown, is intended to re lievethe Creole, on the South American Station. Capt.

The Pre sident, who received 2 sovereigns immediately after the fight, on the ground, having backed Abbot, has since returned them, in consequence of the above fight having been unanimously declared to be a cross. TURNER AND DAvis—The friends of Turner are willing to back him to fight Davis for 100 guineas a-side. Turner ob serves, that had he challenged anyperson 111 b. under his weight instead of a stone and better, he thinks he would have been considered by amateurs a " Cur." A handsome silver lioness,exhibited with other wild beasts at Devizes Green Fair, supposed to be worth 200 guineas, was on Thursday last found dead in her den.—At first a strong suspicion was excited that from the sudden ness of 'her death she must have been poisoned. An eminent surgeon, however, who was present when the keeper was taking off her skin, examined her stomach, where he found a quantity of straw, which it is supposed the animal must have swallowed with her food; the sharp and acrid particles of which being indigestible, occasioned infiamation, and thus quickly hastened her death, MERCANTII • II PPING.

GALE AT NEWFOUNDLAND.—Extract of a letter from St. John's, Newfoundland, dated October 17 :—" On Thursday last, about midnight, we experienced a most tremendous storm of wind and rain ; and it occasionally blew from every point in the compasS. Much damage has been done to the shippin ,, in the harbour, and its effects must have been felt all round the coast. The schooner Coaster, for Labrador, was driven from her anchorage, and bilged at Boneake, but the crew were luckily saved. A great many persons are now employed in en deavours to preserve the cargo, and some hopes are entertained that the vessel may yet be,saved. The Mary-Ann, Haywood, was wrecked in the night on the Narrows, and one of the crew unfortunately drowned. A schooner, the name of which is un known, is also reported to have been lost on Blackhead, and the whole of the crew drowned ; and the Hazard, Howard, lost her rudder in the Narrows. For a length of time the weather . off this coast has been most tempestuous, and the losses, we fear, have been great. The Liverpool ship Diana, commanded by Capt. Jackson, bound from that port to ill iramichi, was totally • wrecked• on some sunken rocks a little to the westward of Morgan's Island, on the evening of the 21st ult. in a dread ful gale from the S. E., accompanied by dense and foggy weather; she soon filled, when the masts were cut away for the preservation of the ship's crew. About two o'clock in the morning of the 22d, a tremendous sea broke .- on board, when she parted nearly midships, but, most provi dentially, the fore part of the vessel held together until . day-light, when the Commander and company got into the jolly-Joat which was the only boat left,' and by the most perse vering exertions reached at length an uninhabited island, where they remained for two days enduring great distress, and without , any provision, when they were fortunately discovered by a fish ing-boat, and caried into Larnben. After recrui.ing at that place they proceeded here, where they arrived on the 14th inst. - The British schooner, Elizabeth, from Cork, hound to Quebec, has been compelled to put into this harbour on the lfitll, to repair considerable damages she had received in a heavy gale of wind from the north-west on the 15th of last month. It appears by the accounts of the Commander, that, while lying to, the vessel was struck by a heavy sea, which instantaneously started the sheathing, broak on board, washed every thing off; the deck, and did other very considerable damage. " We fear we shall receive other accounts of losses in the gale of the 15th inst., as pieces of Wreck have been observed floating along The coast to a very considerable distance, although nothing has yet been picked up to lead to any clue as to what other ves sels have been lost. " Since writing, we learn' that three bodies have been cast ashore, viz. two men and one boy, supposed to be a part of the unfortunate crew of the schooner." THE MARKETS. CORN EXCHANGE, Nov. 4. Last week there was a large arrival of Wheat and Flour, also good quantities of Barley, Beans, Peas, and Oats. This morn ing the principal part of our fresh supply consists of fair quan tities of Wheat, Barley, and Beans, from Essex and Kent; and in consequence, of the large supply of Flour last week, our Maltsters purchased with reluctance this morning on the same . terms as last Monday, but middling and ordinary sorts are rather low. Barley for malting fully maintains our.last quota tions ; but there is not much trade for other qualities. Boiling Peas still continue dull. Beans and Grey Peas sell on much the same terms as this day se'nnight. In Oats the sales are heavy, but the prices are not considered lower than last Mon day; and the Flour trade is exceedingly dull.

EDILIDGE'S CASE.—In the case of: Edrido, who was on Saturday week capitally convicted,' at the Old Bailey, of a cruel outrage upon his daughter-in-law, Martha Mahon, 15 years of age, and since sentenced to death, the property found upon his person, and which consisted of a watch and other articles, together with a, number of pawnbrokers' duplicates, was taken by the She riffs, as is usual in the cases of condemned fe lons ; but a claim was immediately transmitted to the Sheriff, on the part of the unfortunate pro secutrix, for the watch and duplicates, as the property was her deceased mother's. The Under-Sheriff, Mr. Clarke, expressed his willing ness to give the poor girl the articles she claim. ed, if she made an affidavit in support of the claim. This she did before the Magistrate on' Saturday, and Mr. Clarke gave her the watch and duplicates. The young girl was accompanied by her sister-in-law. The masons have been actively employed; within these few days, in .the south front of the Royal Exchange, making preparations for erect ing four stone figures, each six feet high, repre senting the four quarters of the globe.
