to say, as indeed it has already been said, that he
has been more injured by his injudicious end over-
zealous friends, than by those who have brought
him before the tribunal of his country. It is true,
that lie does not stand arraigned before the house
of Commons, on the wore of his moral chewier ;

who will venture to assert, that, should lie be found

On Wednesday evening, the tragedy of The Gre
Haut Daughter was performed at this theatre. lor
the piirpiase of introducing a young lady, in the
arduous character of Luphrasia, to the Manchester
audience; never did any audience receive more
ample gratification, nor any actress, much less a
novice, more general, entlia..jastic, and well-me-
rited applause. She possesses* commanding figure,
treads the boards with peculiar grave and shinny.
and her action is ersv, elegant. and her
cone is Wtll4oned ainl mellow, though it wants
that coutipass winds ii wily to Inc found in matures
years, and with able)) a short period will stielow
her. She can modulate her tunes with iteurishas
sweetness and imprustion, and her enunciation is
dear and distinct. This young candidate for thea-
trical fame, only nineteen years of age, will .portly
'become one of tUie ;Neatest urriatn• ists of the 'finish
stagy, as irossessing all the requisites fur the rsaltiall
depalinetuts of the Tragic Muse. This lady is the
wife of a Mr. CLARKE, and the youngest daughter
of Mr. Connauv, printer, of nlanditstcr. Met
sect-soul asiocsrance, its the same character. was given
oust by Mr. Il.titittunits:. amidst the moat general
plaudits ever heard in a theatre. The tragedy was
altogether ably performed. Previous to the play.
a short, but well-aritten. Occasional Address, was
very impressively delivered by Mr. BARRIIIIURE,
and warmly applanded.

The neighbourhood of sand bads, inCheshire, bas
been for a long time infested by a lari;e gang of
thieves, who have reigned undiscovered until last
wick ; they robbed some one every night, and
people really thought it unsafe to go to bed ; but
last week they ventured to steal four loads of flour
out of a boat lying along a wharf. Two Gen-
drools pursoud them, and snaisagol so well
as to find the dour, and take four mess, which has
lest to a discovery of upwards of .20 is and about
Saiullsach, who have stolen all kinds of ankh s they
could meet with ; there are seven more taken, and
they are still in pursuit of others.
The Litchfield Theatre has been unusually suc-
cessful this season. Mrs. Want sn, we iiiish,,,sand,
is a prime favonnte, and is well supported by the
company in general. The iii i t unable litcus.a has
bccis with them for suave time. The Wolver-
hampton Theatre, after a very prolific season, is
drawing towards a clove ; and the Company are
clearing out fur Worcester.
A circumstance out:tined, on the evening of Sa-
turday Ile' tilt. at Elemire, near !Muslims*, in the
North-Riding of Yorkshire, that has obtained is large
share of public attention in the sieSghlmurhood. An
old man of the name of William „left, his wife, and
their daughter and son-in-law, Jonathan Crisham,
resided together in a house at that place. Ou Sa-
turday the old man and woman were left together
us the house, the son-in-law having left them, to
bring home his wife, who had been on a visit at his
father's some slays. About an hour after shirk
the old woman thought else saw a Mill lurking
about the house, soul her huslessid went out
to reconnoitre. SOOll slier lie had quitted the
door a gun was dincluarged ar him, and the ball
passed through his anti, soil lodged iii his body.—
For some time no traces of the murderous offender
could he found, but suspicion at length living it-
self mmn his son-in-law. Jonathan (indium, lid
was secured and tnken before Mr. Chaytor the Ma-
gists-me, when it appearing that he had borrowed
a gun frosts one of the neighbours, and the gun
having been found secreted in a budge, he was com-
mitted to York Castle, to take his trial for the of-
fence. The poor obi mass still survives, but it
will be some days before his fate cuss be prouounced
