THE THEATRE. DRPRY-LANE.;---The novelty of Mrs. ALSOP'S (the daughter of the late Mrs. JORDAN) appear ance on these boards, drew a most respectable and crowded aniiience last evening. This lady, after a very severe and long 'continued' indisposition, of which the effects are still too visible, was in troduced to the public in the character of no lante, in Mrs. CENTLIVRE'S play of The Wonder a Wo man keeps a Secret. At her entrance she was re ceived by every demonstration of aPpiobation which the House: could testify, and after having recovered possession of herself, from the egita , (jou occasioned by. her ( first appearance, pro 7 ceedcd in the performance of her part amidst the repeated and continued applausei of an admiriug audience. There is nut touch scope for the abilities of an actress iu this character, but we will venture to say that, Mrs. ALSOP did every thing for it that could joassibly have been doue, and in whiCh she was most ably secynda by Mr. Rau as Doti Felix. Mrs. ALSOP was uni versally encored in her song, acCompanied . by the harp, of which she appears to be perfect mistress, and she executed it in, a manner which, whilst it commanded the most profound silent attention of the [louse, ensured her the warmest applause of all who heard her. We congratulate the Public on this acquitition to the Boards of phi Drury, and we commend the Managers fur their judicious choice in selecting this Scion of the late favou rite of the Comic Muse, Mrs. JORDAN, some of whose tones of voice we could not fail to recog nise in Mrs. ALsoe. We cannot refrain, how. ever, from giving our opinion tlsat the character Vidante is, not that far which Mrs. At.soe is best snit,..d, and we rtcommend strongly . , to the Managers to let her appear in sonic of . those, Oa.; meters in which Mrs:JORDAN most excelled, and in which she so much delighte4 the Public. We are greatly mistaken it. Mrs. ALsor has. not Those cOmic powers which qualify her eminently to sus tain those parts in which her late Mother partici'. [Ally shone, r we mean the Spoiled Child, Country . 'Girl, and others of a similar cast. MIS. URGER and Miss KELLY were, as twil4l, excellent in their performance,' and in general the play w:ts well got up ; it was given out for a second petiAllialiCCOO Tuesd,ay next.

BERLIN, Dec. 20.—According to n letter from Planers, in the Voigl)llAnd, a dreadful mprder was latily'committed in the post:-lidnse there, and dis covered in , the following manner : " A postillion arriving at midnight saw a light in the room of the.two maid-servants, and went to them ; he fouWd them weltering in their blood, 'and hastened with the candle in his hand-to the post,tnaster. The latter bad gone upon a journey du'ring the absence of the postillion, who - went then to :call the posb-master's wife, whom he found also murdered, together njib her three children. • The woman could only; say, '' Al), the smith !" Almost beside himself, he left - the post house to give notice to the police; immediately a Smith's shop near the gate was surrounded with soldiers, whilst the-police officers %sent in and ex amined the whole house. In the cellar they found the smith in the middle of.twelve of his asso-, ciates, still sprinkled with the blood.of the tour dered persons, regaling.themselves. The tour derers were all taken, and now await the punish ment of the• law. The affright of the husband and father, on his return, - may he easily con-. calved." IRELAND.

TO - THE jitrj . :S OF THE POOR. "tyre is.tro **ld teetoi t t in the brtasts of En when a proper and forcible appeal is made to only au active person or two in every • parish to call it ihto action.

Ma. EntTot,—lt . is with much satisfaction that :I borrow the foregoing extract, tts it ettables ote to lay; before- pow rciulers a second time, one of those forcible appeals to our heads faint hearts which .cannot. be 'repeated too often in this boor of distress, and which cannot fail of being highly acceptable to the friend of humanity. Now, although -I cannot hoast of any schennk exactly relating to that' which you so laudably so heir, yet 1 will -venture to offer a plan, which, if duly put in practice, could not hut prove highly beneficial to the poor. To save the „consumption of bread, hnd satisfy the cravings of the hungry, by- feeding them with wholesome, palatable, and most substantial I god .at a. very cheap rate, arc surely two points, well deserving the attention of the public.. This is the scheme I now venture to propose to the ,community, and, to borrow ,your own words, '' wants only an active person or two in every parish to call it into action," and, let ints add, crown it with success. I have now further to request, that yen will not only have the goodness to lay before the pub lic the accompanying experiments,• but also that you will here allow the to offer a few obseevadons to thoie who maii" be desirous to carry them into, effect. Such truly charitable persons must not suppose that the mere distribution of these re-. ceipts ,among the poor is all that is required of them. No, they Must do this--I speak it from long tiled experience - --they must niake these ek perinients in their own kitchens, and they must be executed under the eye of a humane,housekeeper, or by the band of a no less humane cook, who, whilst performing her task, will reflect that she is bestowing an act of charity upon countless suffer ing beings : for, with holy reyerence I speak it, these trials, like the grain of mustard-setd itt the parable', might, under Providence, become such a spreading tree, as %youth, hereafter afford shelar. and relief to thousands and'thottsands yet unborn. For,my own part, 1 am so fortunate as to possess servants of the above deicription ; nevertheless, I ever' make use of my own eyes and •palate upon these occasions, consequently know that %that I oiler to the poor is clean, good, and wholesome, and such as I myself and rsty family Might most satisfactorily share. This has been my practice ; and my pains and trouble (if such trifling atten tions merit those terms) have been amply reward ed, by the heartfelt joy of teeing my expectations completely realized. Let any Gentleman or Lady make the experiment 1 have now described, and let them at the same time call into the kitchen the honest cottager or pour suffering mechanic's wife, Making the 'cook explain the druids of the svholu process; the donor winding up the lecture with— " And now, nty goottivirmart, as you seem to no derstand this Matter thoroughly, you shall have .i pint of this excellent mess for each individost of your family ; and yon find,•upon trial, that it requires no breed to be eaten .with it; At the same time you will please , to. t etnemher, that the two gallons from yvh , loce your mess wad taken cost me but nineteen-pence, .and this at a time when the' (11611 cm-loaf costs you, within one sin gle penny us much." Repeat this donation twice, and then give the printed instrue(inus to the grateful receiver; and it after that your expeeta. lions :Should fail, lnm deceived greatly.
