THEATRE,

TM:RV-LANE.
Last night, the lively and interesting Comedy of
Thr breathing was revived here, and :eceived with
the most unbounded littsplause. 'lbis piece does not
boast striking sitteations, nor stage effect, yet, the
characters are all so prominent, the sentiment is so
natural, the language so easy, and the parts are all
so admirably filled, that we regret the public have
been so often disappointed in the promise of its re.
Tresentatian. The lively, amiable, and coquetish
Ru.e't4 Ramont was given by Mrs. JOItUAN with
teat fascinating ease and grace so peculiarly her
own. She never appeared to more advantage than
when, with that goodness that marks her character,
she encouraged modest merit in the person of Miss
Cssory, who peformed the character of the in-
teresting Fre A more promising candidate for
public favour we have not seen. She is very young,
'.tar face is pretty, her figure neat and elegant; her
Atm just ; her voice is dear and sweet, and so
audible that not the lowest tone was lost. In her
deiineation of the charafter, she displayed delicacy
and feeling; bid when, at the conclusion of the
play, Mr. CIIZRRY. as Sir Retire He/wont, the
father of her intended husband, entb!.tcd her as
b's chill, the whole audience sympathised in his
feature. Mr. WROU en sox was an admirable
upiesentative of the amiable Sir Gror,n Rovme,,d.
Mr. Dr CA:4P was a very amusing Far/ie.—We do
not know a more improving performer. We anti-
cipated Mr. In. eiSTON'S success in Cliarle, Belmont,
be,ng one of that class of fashionable c!larailiers, in
shich he has ti e ien so much escellence. Miss
CHERRY introduced a i•athettc air, which she sung
with taste and sweetness. The house overflowed
with an elegant audience.

you, I sax no probability of such a thiig ; but if there

proofs of your devoted attachment to him, that you
can bring it about. You are so young, that if you
unhappily let slip the opportunity of placing yoursell
about the Consul, you will have many years for
regret to steal upon ) on. The obscnyity to which
you %caul.' thus condemn yourself would be long ;
and long and bitter the comparison between the lot
you had chosen for yourself, and that which once
awaited you. Without distinttion, fame, or even
fortune, how could you bear the weight of the
name with which you are honoured? To you, a
stranger to the glory attached to it, it would become
an insupportable burden. I repeat it, for the last
time, my dear Jerome, come hither, come hither by
the first French frigate which shall sail from the
United States, and you will meet witlibuch a recep-
tion as you could desire ; but I regret that you know
not the Consul sufficiently, because you would then
be persuaded that you cannot regain his good will
bet by this expedient, and this good-will is essential
to your happiness and your glory. I conclude with
the exp:essir n of the most sincere attachment which
I shall never cease to rttain—happy, if I have been
able to influence your determination in the way I
could wisb—m I happy still, if my letter was unr
necessary for that purpose. A thousand kind wishes.

BRIGADE IN HYDE PARK.

Yesterday morning, at eleven o'clock, the City of
London Volunteer Cavalry, commanded by Col.
Herries, entered the Park at Oxford-street Gate,
with their dismounted cavalry arid two fi Id pieces.
They were followed by their fily;ng artillery and
caravans, and immediately took their stations upon
the righ: of the brigade. The Westminster Volun-
teer Cavalry, under the command of Col. Elhott,
entered shortly after, and took their station upon the
Lett, while the dismounted cavalry formed the cell+
tee of the line, with their two field pieces in 11(n...
Shordy after the line was formed, the Hon. General
Lumley, as General of Brigade, with his two ids-
du-Camp, came upon the ground, and minutely in-
speaed the troops, which then began to form them-
selves into squad ons, alternately changing and in-
terchangiag in brigade. These manoeuvres con-
tinued until near three o'clock, when the dis-
mounted cavalry fell nut, and, supported by their
field pieces, kept up a brisk and well-direfted fire.
The whole of the City Light Horse then formed a
line three deep across the Park, and made a bold and
vigorous charge from Grosvenor Gate, towards the
gate at the end of Piceadifly. After the grand halt,
they went thrnup.h various manoeuvres with the
broad-sword, prcereding i•n open end skirmishing
order, until they came back to the side of the Park
next to Oxford-street, In this way they covered
the advance of the Weatminster Cavalry, which
formed a second line, until, by an excellent ma-
nucevre, they fell back, and finmed one complete
line. After this and several other manoeuvres,
which lasted until nearly four o'clock, the troops
were dismissed, after much praise by the General of
Brigade, who, with his Aid-de-Camp, headed the
charges the whole of the day. Two horses fell in
the last charge, but their riders were not hurt. We
did not observe any other accident. The finen..ss
of the day induced an extraordin try number of poi-
sons to attend this beautiful milk try spedacle.

We understand that Admiral Lord Gardner, and

the Earl of Cork, had received intelligence yesterd:iy,
by express, of the sailing of Gantheatime, in con-
sequence of which, the greatest aaivity prevails in
our harbour, in getting all the cutters and fist-sail-
ing vessels at Cove, ready for sea; orders v;ere is-
sued to the troops of our garrison, to ho',d them-
selves in readiness to march at a moment's notice,
and tiO rounds of ball-cartridge, per tan, were dis-
trihuted. But it appears from the follov.ing copy 0(
a letter from Colonel Raymond, Deputy Adjutant-
General, to Lieutenant-General Lord Cathcart, ad-
dressed to ti,e Earl of Cork, that tl*.is intelligence,
however probable in itself, and 'reached by such
respettable authority, is premature :

The city of Agra. latel7 (alien into nur possession
by the important campaign in the East, was once
*a first city for magnificence and commerce in
media; and. at this day, exhibits more nsagniSceat
lialissuusents of farmer splendaur than any city of

Asks& took up twelve years in .finishing, while
ishommthousand lahouren were constantly employed,
gad Net three millions of rupees. The castle is the
lawn ever seeded in India, and was. built in the
el a crescent, being four miles in extent.
biloskee, in the first volume of his Indian
Antiq= gives the following account of this spa-
cious
" It was four miles in extent, and it consisted of
law court% adorned with many stately porticos,
Ipilbaba, mid turrets, all richly painted and gilt,
sad tom even overlaid with plates of gold. l'he
int so"R, built round with arches, that gave a pet-
petual shade, so desirable am:Jst the heats of a
learning climate, was intended for the Imperial
Guard; the second for the great Omrahs and Nli.
sisters of State, who had these their several apat t-
ments for the transaaion of pablic business. Within
the third was contained the Seraglio, consist;ng en-
tirely of the stately apartments of the Emperor him-
self, hung round with the richest silks of Persia,
and glittering with a profusion of Indian wealth.
In the front of the castle, towards the tiver, a large
area was left for the ezerciseof the royal elephants,
and the battles of wild beasts, in which the Indian
Emperors used to take great delight ; and, in a
square of vast extent, that separated the palace from
the city, a numerous army constantly es.camped.
whose shining armour, and gorgeous ensigns, dif-
fined ,a glop round them, and added greail to the
splend stir of the scene.
" Rut if this palace was thus externally grand,
si hat a splendid scene must its interior parts have
ihselaved ; Mande do, who visited Agra in 1633, and
saw that city in the meridian of ns glory; after
informing us that the palace was altogether the
grandest ohjeft he had ever beheld; that it was sur-
rounded with a wall of freestone, and a broad ditch,
with a draw bridge at each of its gates, adds, that
at the farther end of the third court, you saws row
of pillars under a piazza, and beyond this court was
the presence chamber : that this more spacious
apartment was adorned with a row of golden pil-
Lin of a smaller size, and within the balustrade was
the royal throne of massy gold, almost incrusted
over with diamonds, pearls, and other precious
stones ; that above this throne was a gallery , where
the Mogul appeared every day at a certain time, to
bear and redress the complaints of his subjers ; and
that no persons whatsoever, besides the King's
sons, were admitted behind those golden pillars.

which communicatel with the garden houses
of ;I,e
nobility.
Ancient Delhi is said to have been erected by
Rajah Delu, who reigned in 1-lindostan, prior to the
invasion of Alrran ler the Grens; others affirm it to
have been built by Rajah ?ettouvar, who fl wished
at a much later period. It is called M Sanscrit,
Idebvput, or the abode of 'infra. one of the Ilindft
deities ; and it is thus distinguished in the royal
clil,l,)mers of the chancery office.
'Hie royal gardens of Shalimar, made by the
Emperor Shah :Man, were begun is C'e fourth year
of his reign, and finished in the thirteenth, on which
occasion, and according to Colonel Dow, the F.m.
'scrim gave a grand festival to his Court. These
gardens were 1 id out with admirable taste, and cost
the enormous sum of a million sterling ; their pre.
sent appearance does not give cause to supposz such
an immense sum has been laid out upon them, as
great part of the most valuable and costly materials
have been cart ied away.

On each side of this !Yaws, inclosed with high
walk, art the apartments of the Ifirem, some of
which are built of red stone, and some of brick, faces::
with the chunam afore-mentioned, and ornameiaref
with paintings of flowers of various kinds. All the .
apartments have winding pass iges, which comma-
nicate with each other, and the gardens adjoining
by private doors. The extent of &Sinter da-s not
appear to have been very large. The gardens .tie
not above one mile iu circumterence, a high hoick
wall runs around the whole, and the caremtics
flanked with oCiagon pavilions of red stone. they
still abound with trees of a very large size, and
very old. The prospect, south of Shalimar, to Delhi, as far as the eye can reach, is covered
with the remains of extensive gardens, pavilions,
mosques, and burial places. The environs of this
once magnificent and celebrated city, appear at the
present time nothing more than a shapeless heap
of ruins, and the country round about is equally
desolate and forlorn.

HUNTINGDON, AUGUST 20.

Ibis town has been all life and gaiety for these
tLr weeks past. On the marriage of Lord Ills-
ciiis BROOK to the beautiful Lady Lewis* Cosev,
Earl S wowtcu, the Viscount's father, gave a very
handsome dinner to all his tenantry upon the happy
occasion. A fat of was roasted whole, and three
butts of strong beer were given to :he ',nor. In-
deed the Priory has not been so gay since the late
Ea-Ps time : them was a Grassi 13.111 in the
evening at the Town-Hall, at which Lord h•sio-
wicii danced till early the next morning. Such
hospitality and condescension are rarely to he found.
The Races were well attended, which added to the
dyful scene. The Corporation paid their respets
to Lady Iltscnissitoo ; but ti.e bride would not
s.driir them to kneel or kiss her hand : this was
..wointment to some ; however a glass of wine
4;:d a large p:ec.: of bride cake reconciled every
:....ng. The gates of the Park were all thrown
n, and the pubiie were permitted to enjoy these
....Isom rural walks.

CHELTAN-IL4M, A:•casT i:::

The Saline Spring, which makes the ladies lean,
has converted the lanes of this town into streets. It
is grown so proud and lofty, so swollen and bloated,
I could hardly recognise the humble modest vil-
lage, now distended on every side, and intercepting
the view of the beautifully undulating hills. The
new Theatre, crated by Mr. War soN, the Proprietor
of the old one, will be opened immediately. Miss
Dec Asir is arrived and will ntake iter dibirt upon
the occasion. Mr. Ku so, the hlaster of the Cere-
monies, has displayed his fine taste in the plan, per-
speCtive decorations, &c. of his charming villa at
Camhray. I arrived here, at the York Hotel, upon
the Prince of IVA LES'S birth-day, which was eele•
brated at tl,is house, just in time to sit down to the
best venison I ever saw. IVe dined, to the DOT.

PONET RAWLS.

On Monday the Poney Races commenced on the
new course, marked out opposite Mr. Durant's
hone, Woodcot Lodge, near Carshalton. The spot
selefted is very advantageous for the sport, and
little doubt is entertained, that if the laces t!lere are
carried stn with the same spirit that marks all Mr.
Durant's plans, it will soon become one of the most
fashionable places of resort. Mr. Dttrant, unfor-
tunately, could not attend the starting on Monday,
and a considerable delay took place in consequence.
Tile pulleys, that were to have started at two o'clock,
were not ready till half past four, at which time
four started for the sweepstakes. The bets were
seven to one at starting, in favour of a grey ; but, on
their running the course once round, the chance
turned in tavaur of Loi d Gray's brown; the grey,
however, got the sweepstakes by near four yards.
On: of the pone• was thrown out.
The second race was for a saddle and bridle, and
was very warmly disputed.
A wager was tut/ for between the butcher's po-
ne, that had beet so successful at Godstone, and
one of Lord Gray's, which afforded considerable
sport.
The day being ve:y favourable, all the fashiona-
blcs in the county were colleted at an early 1101 w.
We observed among them Lord Gray, Admiral
Piget, besides many of the firs; sporting charaders.
'rue race Wit': numerously attended by black leg
gamblers, and other usual attendants on these occa-
sions; and the E. 0. Tables wer: too fortunate,
we tear, in stripping Dodge of his harvest home.
Coon the whole, however, a considerable statis-
t:talon was given, and the jockeys exerted them-
selves to the utmost. The course is about a mile and
.1 half round, and the ground good, though it may be
improved, when selected far this sport in future.

MARGATE, AVG. 27.

Pleasure is not the only pursuit of the Company
here. Charity, I am happy to sty, sheds her benign
infliente around it. and, I trust, will ensure it all its
blessings. How grateful to the feelings of a Briton
to rerlea. that while they are partaking of the In en-
r;es of life. they have hearts alive to the sufferings
of others! The General Sea Bathing Infirmary, es-
tablished here, and supported by voluntary dona-
tions, and the subscriptious of the benevtaent an.l
humane, was yesterday the ()hie& of attention. A•
Sermon for that excellent Institution was preached
by the Rev. P. Donn, of the Asylum, who, in an
impressive and well-delivered disco:us:4 pathetically
described the miseries of the poor and atfitarda
whose sole dependmce for any comfort in lire, or
c;.auce of restoration to health, was the produce of
this Charity. He called upon his congregation. as
members of society, to discharge their duty to their
neighbours : he implored them as Christians to sheer
love to their fellow creatures. The votaries of plea-
sure he entreated to sbew their gratitude io
their Creator for the bounties they enjsyed, by
sparing a little to the poor and afiliaed ; and
the sick, who knew the value of hcalth by sad
experience of its loss, whn,.faad come for bath-
ing, and had enjorefigkAlfrefit. he particularly en-
jomed to shear the* lyssp:athy for those. who, with
feelings hire themselves, labour under the accumu-
lated weight of sickness and penury. There was
net a hear: present, I am co evinced, that did not
feel the force of this appeal, and in.: amount of the
collection, tiol. evinced I. 'l ire congregation was
numerous and most • respe.la"le. Besides the ser-
mon at Paces, anotLer was preach :d at Rams-
gate Chapel, and two others a: two of the Chapels
here, the colletions at which were respettable, and
will be of essaitial service to the Institution, as the
funds, lam sorry to say, :Ire rather low. Of nearly
700 patients admitted since the first opening of the
Infirmary, only two have been discliarged without
having received relief. Haw gratifying must be
t is result to the founders, patrons, and supporters
of this gee-silent institution.

You see then, we can attend to other things
than Balls and Masquerades, and that we ale
not the light, trifling, silly people yoki may passi-
ply conceive us. %%e have come here, no doubt, in
search of health and pleasure; but wherever Britons
are placed, whether in the tiont of the foe, or the
o. ,urn of their friends, I trust they never will forget
the r moral duties.
