SURREY THEATRE.
We again visited this charming and well.
conducted theatre list evening, and were highly
gratified at seeing a very crowded audience; the
house, we th.tik, was as full as on the first night,
but infinitely more select, consequently we had a
better opportunity of •ystrecialiat the merit of the
pieces, and we must do Mr. Dianne the justice to
acknowledge we were never more pleased and de-
lighted. Belisarins would do honour to theboards
or either of our nalional theatres ; we do not recol-
lect a piece prodtkced by them possessing more
general interest, clearness and strength of lon-
guage, or better acted. The great scene is the
sine in the second act between HUNTLEY, Miss
'F•vtoa, and BENGOUGII it is completely new
and original, most powerfully effective, and%
we will venture to assert, the performance of
it is equal to any tbiog we have at present
on the stage. The third act rises with an intensity
of interest, which keeps the spectator's feelings
alive to the last moment. It is most splendidly and
carefully got up, and we hope Mr. Mama will
feel his reward, by a continuation of such brilliant"
houses as we saw last night. Peggy Larkins fol-
lowed, and was received with roars of laughter and
opplesse througl:out, and when the curtain fell the
audience gave three cheers.
A correspondent informs us, that on New Year's
day his*Grace the Duke of NORTHUMEEELAND
displayed his usual liberality, in giving at the
Duclieis's new dairy rooms, on the backs of the Alu,
to his workmen and labourers, consisting of about
200, a dinner of roast beef, mutton, plum pud-
dings, &c. together with several butts of strong ale
from the Castle. His Grace condescended to pre•
side and dine at the table, and carved plentifully
to his numerous guests, whilst the Duchess and
several other visitant ladies, waited on the company
with officious politeness; after dinner, whilst the
Raggons were going round, several appropriate
image were sung, and !toddle drunk, and after
opeading the evening with the utmost conviviality,
the highly-gratified company orderly departed to
their respective homes, tosuring their blessings oat
their liberal benefactors. Such as had families
were ordered to attend the next day, to clear the
loaded benches of their fragments, and to drain
the butts of their contents. Ills Grace also or-
dered a survey to be made amongst the poor who
needed blankets mid bedding, coals, &c. in order
to their being supplied with tose necessary articlte,
in this inclement season.

It is stated by Lord Bouttnottoan, in his le.
marks on the History of Englund (page7o), that the
discontent of the natiun tens sufficient to have given
that unfortunate and usided Prince, RICHARD 11..
such a warning as might have induced him to
abandou is Ministers.., But they," says his Lord-
" persuaded him that they suffered for his
sake: that the out of his enemies was to dethrone
HIS, by disgracing them; and whilst all the trou-
bles of Ilia reign were due to his support of them,
they made him believe that they watered fur exe-
cuting his orders, and maintaining his authority.
Nay, they represented to him, that by.accusing the
Ministers. a was plainly slims that he believes the
Nosereign incapable of governing, and that the
readiest way to discredit a Prince is persuading
his subjects that he makes use of ill Ministers."
Friday morning a letter was received at the
Custom-{Dose
from
Lieutenant WHITE, R.N.
Imorcting Officer of the Preventive Water Guard
at Wexford, elating that a smuggler. called the
Leather Legs, has lre.o totally lust near Cansore
Point, and all :lauds perished. This vessel had
landed part of her cargo,, which, through the acti-
vity of Lieutenant ‘VIIITe. has been seized, and
safely lodged in Wexford Custom-house.
FROM A CORREPPONDENT.—II may probably
be worth while to notice, as a caveat to those con-
nected in the mercantile world, ,That there are two
holidays follow each other this month, namely, the
Asaiversary of his present MAJBITY'I Accession
to the Throne, on Monday; the %Ph, and the
martyrdom of King CuARLso I. ais Tuesday, the
30th; so that all bills, etc. falling due, either here
at London, or elsewhere, on the 28th (being Sun-
day), soth, and 30th current, will require to be
provided for on the 27,h.
