LORD SIDNIOUTII. • At a Meeting of the Common Council of the Borough of Tewkesbury, on Friday the 29th the Freedom of the Bornueh was presented to the night Hon. He,,ry Lord Viscount SIDMoUTII, his Majesty's Principal Secretary of State for the Home Depart'ient, 8:c. &c.; when HENRY FowKF, Esq. Deputy Recorder, addressed his Lordship to the following effect :--- " ii'y F, , ,d Viscintizt Stdratouth,-.4 have it in direttion by the Bailiffs and Principal Burgesses now assembled in Com mon Council, to request your Lordship's permission to he en rolled a Freeman of this ancient Borough, as a small testi tunny of the high respect and considehition they entertain of your Lordship's eminent services to this country; and they sincerely wish your Lordship health and every happiness in public and private life." _ _ Th e Right Hon. the Eatl of Coventry, High Stewart!, congratulated the Noble Viscount on the occasion, and expressed himself extremely gratified in having an individual so distinguished by inflexible loyalty to his King, and eminent ser %ices to his country, enrolled among the Freemen of the independent Borough of Tewkesbury. To which well-merited compliment Lord Stn• tIOUTI; rel►lied " I,o;it and Gentlenren,--To be noticed in this conde scending and pleasing manner by the Bailiffs and Corpora tion •of so ancient. respectable, and loyal a Borough ar, Tewkesbury, would be, at all tidies and under any circum stances, peculiarly grateful to my feelings, and make an in delible impression upon thrm ; brit * as a servant of the pub !,e thus honoured by the unsought-for approbation and Public testimony of an independent and unbiassed body of re spectable individuals, is that meed to which I shall ever here 44ter advert with inexpressible satisfaction. Believe me, my Lord and Gentlemen, your marlsed approbation of my pub lic conduct will be rooted firmly among the best feelings and most grateful remembrances of my heart; and I return you tiiy most cordial thanks for this honourable testimony of your avoui - able regard. May the Corporation of the Borough of Tewkesbury always enjoy the glatulations of their fellow-ci tizens ; and one common prosperity, with concord and hapoi- Less, Le the portion of them and of the Borough at large." The Rev. John Timhrill, D.D. Joseph Yorke, Sil• E. H. Leelimere, Esq. the Rev. F. S.Wall, cif), W. Buckle, Esq. were subsequently admitted h) their freedom ; and the whole party afterwards partook 'of an elegant colt) collation in the Assem bly Room at the Town B al l. Typhus Fitter has been more than usually pre *alent in this city and neighbourhood for sonic time back, anti is partkalarly virulent at present in one or two parishes at no greet distance (tom the city. Our Fever Hospital, which is small and incomodious, is folly occupied by patients. The number at present within the walls is 2.5 ; and so tintnermas are the applications, that if it were Suflirirntdy spicions, its inmates would exceed 14 0ohte that number. From the Ist of June last to the Ist of September, 155 persons, afflicted 'Wills the fever, have been admitted, of whom the deaths have oolv been thirteen, or about 1-12th of the number received into the house in the tonne of that period. When we mention the in- Cool enience of the place, and the comparatively small number of deaths, it is obvious either that the fever prev.ilent in this vicinity is not of a Very fatal description, or that very sopetior atten tion is paid to the poor afflicted patients. But as the CAIISCS of fryer are still but imperfectly known, and as their fa ality is often dependent on CCUlllbiances distinct from the disease itself, we tflay attribute the recovery of so many, under Proei(!ence, to the kind and skilful attentions of tiie visiting Physicians, and to the singular and tloceasing care of the respeutable family to whom the management' of the Hospital is entrusted. , -- Cit7iiker.ny Moderator.)

On Lord IJEEttutiaT's health bring given by the Hon, Colonel Lygon, one of our county . Membets, his Lordship returned thanks in au elaborate speech, which lie delivered with his ac costome6l energy and perspicuity. ih this speech his Lordship observed, that on thit particular day he had always made it a point to ab'st'ain from all twitter connected with a political or Out)lie nature, but now that by the choice of the Freemen of Worcester, he was placed in the situation of their representative, lie should be failing in his duty, if on any public assembly of his friends, lie did not seize the opportunity of conveying to them his s, use ,•I obligation and gratitude for their kindness and proved attachment to his interest. It his lips were opened on this occasion, they must recollect they had given the flow to that utterance, which, however inadequately, yet sincerely thank ed th e m for the support which, in a day. of trial, they alma t una voce so obligingly conferred upon him. The favour bestowed upon him then could only he equalled by the manner in which it was granted, and the hope now left was, that he, Lord Deethurst, -might never disgrace the choice of the Freemen of Worcester, but ever honestly and conscientiously discharge his important duty for them in Parliament. His Lordship con cluded with the sentiment cf " Prosperity to the City of Worcester, and may it ever flourish." The healths of Lord Sidmouth and Lord Colchester were individually proposed by the Earl of Coventry, who congratulated the city upon thei.• late enrolment amongst its members of such distinguished cbaractets.— Their healths was drank with great, applause.— Lord Beaochitup's health was then given, and drank %% WI the utmost fervency ; upon which) the Hon.

Lygon, gallant Officers, who, in their different profession, were an honour to their coun try. The health of the. Hots. rviaQter Coventry be ing given, Lord Deerhurst hopvd he would feel with those of the family who had preceded hint, that the interests of the county and city of Wor cester should ever form his principal considera tion.

THE TIIEATRES. COVIINTGA nAhN.—The tragedy of flirmlet lest night graced the opening of this Theatre.

Mr. BONNELL TUORNTON is a finalooking young man. HiS stature is above the middle site, and his face is expressive. His voice is strong and - rattier creep ; his action was easy and unaffected. The part of Horatio admits too little scope fur an actor to dis play much ithilitye'ind it he atinits himself With decent mediocrity it is as much as Candour would expect. Such Was the case with Mr. ThoeseoN, and therefore we shail wait for a fuller develope went of his powers, just observing that they were evidently under the restraint of those feelings which moat 11;11111-illy have attended the novelty of his situation. The effect of the new mode of illuminating the Theatte wens in the highest degree snccesirul. The 'audienee, 011 - otighotit tt a lionse p could distinctly see cads other, as well as all that passed upon the stage. The Theatre was crowded, and the performances were well received. The eftetpiece Was The Miller ettd his Men. The per formers in general experienced a gratifying re (enact). ENGLISH UPERA.-...Another of the ligbteriruits of the Summer season was brought for last . night at this Theatre, under the title of Disgvises. It is ascribed to Mr. BEAZLEY, the Architect of the Theatre, who has written several whimsical productions of the same kind. The fable turns upon the eagerness of a Widow - to gain a new Husband, and a silly old Man who pretends to gallantry. The whole concludes with the mar, riages of lovers properly suited to each other.— The 'Piece was well supported by the Performers, particularly WRENCII, CHATtgRLEY, and Miss KELLY, and - was favourably received by the an. dience. This Theatre was also illuminat e d last night by additiOnal Gas lights, much to the ad vantage of the audience and the stage. We are glad to find that the Managers of the Winter Theatres have resolved to abolish the ont rageoui Panegyrics at the bintom of their play bills, so often applied to n e w P er f ormers an d Per)Ormances, which were generally read with disgust, and in furore to leave the merits of Actors and drimatic Works to the judgment of the Public. A BENEVOLENT INFORMER. Ut.III.DHALL.----Yesterday Edward Kennedy, a labonrer, was charged before Alderman SCHOLEY, by a Mr. Campbell, a Gentleman of fortune, with wheeling a barrow upon 'the pavement. It- ep penrs•that this Gentleman is rigid in enforcing the late Act of Parliament for clearing the streets of many incumbrances ; end his anxious wish was, that the law should In all cases be impartially admi. nistered ; that he had taken a great deal of pains to oblige constables, beadles, and street-keepers,todo their duty, which he said was very pt ially done in many streets ; the present defendant. be was told was the servant of a Deputy of Cripplegate Ward, and as such he thought him a proper ob ject to bring forward. The man confessed his fault, and pleaded ignorance of the law, an't poverty, baying a' wife and several children ; the Magistrate, with great humanity, wished to for give him the penalty. Mr. Campbell expostulated upon the impropriety of his lenity, and doubted how far he could do when the City Solicitor was sent for, and clauses of the new Act were read, which enacted a penalty of not less than 405., nor more than 31: fdr this offence. The de fendant was sent for again, and from the evidence of Mr. Campbell, as well as the Officer, the Ma. gistrate was under the necessity cof convicting him in the penalty of 40s. which fine, according to the Act, is to be levied upon property ; it not, the offending party to he sent to prison for a certain time. This poor. man not having wherewith to pay the fine, Mr. Campbell generously gave hint the 40s.and at the same time advised hint not to pay the money, but suffer himself to go to prison, when the discretion of the Magistrate could lessen his imprisonment to one :day.—However, the me.n paid the motley, did got ' The SeSsions for Middlesex commence at the Ses% sions•house, Clarkeuwell-green, on Monday next.
