DkUltY-LANR THEATRS.

The house, as on Weduesday, when the splendid
s* two celebrated tragedians, Mr. Yonritt
KEAN, conferred a degree of eclat upon
the representation oferhello scarcely ever before

equalled. was crowded to excess last evening truffle-
ifistely after the doors were opened. The play was
Venice Preserved ; the part of Joffier by Mr.
KEAN, that of Pierre by Mr. Youtro. They were
both received, on their entrance, with repeated
beers. On the score of theatrical effect Mr.
YOUNG had the advantage, as in the first in.
dance it certainly preponderated in favour of
Mr. KEAN. thit Pierre was finely sustained
throsighout, and, in the principal scenes, both
the tanceotion and execution were of the highest
nrder. In disclosing the conspiracy to Jaffier,
his style was, in some degree, peculiar. He
Apoke with less apparent emotion than we have
• seta (minced by other performers in this part. He
communicated his plan, the hopes he entertained
from the bravery of his associates, in a low and
steady tone, as if his worst fear were that other ears
should " drink such desperate sounds." The noble
gollsotry with which he repelled the insinuations of
t:se conspirators against his friend's fidelity, would
grace the best cause that ever found brave spirits to
support it, and the brief sentence addressed to
Renault, was uttered with a most overwhelming
expression of contempt. The last scene which
.aims particular distinction, is that where, on
L•ie breaking up of the council, he sees before him
this man fur whose truth and courage he had
so frankly pledged him, and who had forfeited
his title to either. He rejected his embrace with
loathing, and seemed as if nothing could disturb
the tranquil resolution with which he contemplated
has approaching death. except else sight of an °b-
led so loved, so trusted, and so despised. The
,;eracter of Je/'er is not the best suited to Mr.
rILAIS'S genius. It is tors humble; his spirit is
rapetuous; it exults in a fiery career of den-
ote and enterprise. and results from the waver.
trig irresolution of Jaffier, who eagerly takes part
is a conspiracy, biuds himself with mottsuleuth
`r.gatiou, sod then, whilst circumstances continue
icholiged, reveals the whole story to the very
en into whose throats he had sworn, with desperate
linprrorti 1111 l to plunge his poniard. Yet, though
we think Mr. KEAN is hot seen to most
• sAsstitage in such ■ pert u Jailer, his per-
•formanee exhibited many beauties. His affection
i•r Belcidera, the bitteruess of his resentment
against her hard-hearted father. and his humi.

i•-essed. In the last of these instances the owlet,-

A private letter from Paris says, " It is f..und
that the business of the Congress is terminal.
ed ; and that, as was redicted, the Sovereigns
have come to no unanimous resolution, but that
each Power has drawn up a note addressed to
the Spanish Government. That of England is de-
cidedly opposed to war. The notes of Russia and
Prussia are said to be very violent against the pre-
vent state of things in Spain : the note of Au.tria is
more moderate. The note or France is stated to
be still feebler Olin the Austrian."

FRIDAY, NOVZIERIR :9.

This day the Sittings after Michaelmas Term
commenced at Westminster, before the LORD
Cuter JUITICS.
WAIT* a. LADY CARL
Mr. GURNEY stated, tins was au action brought
by the Plaintiff, Mr. Waite, furrier to his Majesty,
to recover compensation in damages from Lady
Carr, for an injury he had sustained by the careless.
tress of her Ladyship's coachman. The Learned
Counsel stated the case to the Jury. It would ap-
pear, he said, that on the 517th May last, Mr.
Waite, accompanied by his wife, was proceeding
up the Regent Circus, in his chaise, driving at a
slow rate, when the carriage of Lady Carr came
also along the Circus, dnving in the same direc-
tion, but at a furious rate, and through vs care-
lessness of the coachman, ran foul of Use Plaintiff's
chaise, and struck it with such violence as to throw
it over. Mr. and Mrs. Waite were thrown out with
great violence, and both rectived some very severe
hurt., especially' Mrs. Waite ; the chaise also was
nearly broken to pieces, and the Plaintiff now
sought to recover • compensation in the present
action.

The first witness culled was Thomas Clark, shop-
matt to Mr. Laisbow, who lives in the Circus. lie
saw the Plaintiff's chaise coming up from Carlton
House towards the Circus; it wa. going at a slow
rate. Witness likewise saw Defendant's carriage
stand ■t Swan and Edgar's, and then proceed down
Piccadilly towards the Circus at a quick pace ;
there was a hackney coach coming down the street
at a qttick pace, and on passing on the nearside of
the hackney coach believes the Defendant's fore
wheel struck the Plaintiff's wheel, chit that the
shock threw Plaintiff's chaise over. There was
abundance of room for the Defendant's carnage to
have paned on the off side, the right side of the
hackney coach.
Timothy Curran, street-sweeper, saw the De-
resident's carriage stopping at Swan and Edgar's,
cud one of the ladies get out, stow tau minutest.—
It then proceeded towards the ChCus. The rasa-
than struck his larboard horse, upon which the
horse started forward at a quick pace ; witness saw
the Plaintiff's gig crossing the Circus beto►e the
hackney coach. The Defendant', carnage mote
on the left hand side of the hackney coach. Wit-
ness saw the Defendant's carriage strike the Plain-
tiff's chaise, and throw it over; believes it was the
pole of the earriage which struck the after part of
the Plaintiff's chaise and threw it over. There
was plant♦ of room for the coachmen to have
avoided the chaise had 'lie been careful.

Mr. Thomas Lenbow resides in the Regent
Circus, sod saw the accident happen. He describ-
ed Mr. Waite's chaise, as being on its proper side
of the street, and the curd' of Lady Carr eoninig
up at a furious rate. Witness Ind nut sea the
chaise go over, bet saw it lying on the ground, awl

riuge was immediately stopped by the pawners.

which enable him to have a full view of the
Circus. asst the accident happen ; saw the car-
riage of Lady Carr ►trike the chaise; it was either
the poll or the splinter-bar which struck the chaise.
It appeared to the witness that the coachman did
not drive with clue. Mr. and Mrs. IVaite were
thrown out of tar chaise. Witness saw the Plans-
