This Lady commenced her dramatic career at a
very early age : her mother, Mrs. Keys, has long
been an aElress of great celebrity at the provincial
theatres, particularly at that of Weymouth, where
she has been often honoured with the Royal com-
mand, and is said to have no equal in the charafter
of DOPC/8 in Thomas and Sally. Under her protec-
tion Miss Keys made her delta in the operatical line,
and was so well received, that Mr. Daly, the ma-
nager of the Dublia theatre, engaged her and her
mother as auxiliaries to open the campaign of 1793.
Madame Mara was also engaged, and played MOll.
done in the Opera of Artaxerxes; Miss Rose Ryder
was the efr6ares, and Miss Keys the 12;menee ; whe-
ther male attire was new to our heroine, or from
what reason we know not, her performance of the
Ornerd did not phase the manager: fines ensiled. and
her receipts on Saturday from the treasury seldnin
exceeded a guinea. But aspiring genius is not be
dismayed, and the ensuing summer she joined a
strolling company under the management of Mr.
Moss, which travelled north and east ; hete
Miss Keys became an aftress of the first magni-
tude. At each point of the compass she received
the most powerful prcreftion in Mr. Leigh's family,
of Rosegarland, and Mr Leslie's, of Glasslough. It
was not her dramatic merit alone that recommended

her to their favour, but the street propriety that marked
her private charilter. The Amateur, or Private
Theatre, as it was called, was then at its zenith,
under the management of Mr. Jones,. the present
manager of Crow-street theatre. Miss Leigh was
one of the most amiable and accomplished women
of that day, had been the favourite representative
of the tragic muse, at the elegant private theatre
of the Countess of Ely, where taste, fashion.
and talent, for some seasons held their court ; Mr.
Leslie, jun. was also an amateur of the first class,
and a leading person in the concerns of the thea-
tre; under these auspices Miss Keys commenced
the Jordan of the private state, with a good salary,
and, what was to her more gratifying, the approba-
tion of every person who saw her perform ; natu-
rally lively, in the enviable state she was now placed,
her vivacity knew no bounds, and such was her
gratitude to her benefaetors, that no task WAS con-
sidered difficult. that conduced to their entertain-
ment. When the sparkling Champagne had dazzled
the wits of the amateurs, or duller Burgundy cloud-
ed them, Miss Keys WAS ready to dance a hornpipe
or sing a song to amuse the audience ; here she be-
came acquainted with the Miss Gough', now Mrs.
Galindo, and Mrs. Huddart ; Mrs. Galindo was
then, as at present, the kiiddons of the Irish stage.
'Chose ladies lived with Miss Brownrig, their pa-
troness, whose house was the resort of rank, taste,
and fashion. At their petit aciipm Miss Keys often
joined the merry glee with the Earl of Barrymore,
Mr. Bellamy, Captain Ashes 3cc. &c.
The second season drew to a close, and she waited
on Mr. Jones, the manager, on some business.
Whether it happened to be at a moment *en his
mind was engaged on the important stilled of
cookery, as this gentleman is allowed to be as good
a judge of a good dinner, as of a good performer, we
cannot determine. But certain it Is. when our
heroine entered the audience chamber, he accost-
ed her with the coarse interrogatory of “ What
do you want?" Astonished at such a reception,
Miss Keys, who never wanted spirit, expostulated,
perhaps not in the mildest terms ; the great
man became enraged, and they parted determin-
ed that all engagements should cease with the
season. Mr. Janos, however, relented, and toe
pains to ctFeo a reconciliation; hut in vain ; Miss
keys felt her own strength, and was determined to
Its? it. Our heroine, though not expensive in either
habits or dress, was no economist; and, on sum-
ming up her accounts, found, ti ifling as the demands
against her were, she could not with convenience
discharge them. This circumstance determined
her to accept an engagement that offered at Galway
fora few nights. The inhabitants are proverbial for
their politeness and attention to strangers: well
freighted with recommendations, her reception ex-
ceeded her most sanguine expectations, and enabled
her to settle every demand. From Galway she
embarked for her native land, and commenced
a provincial campaign; in the progress of her
march, sly, met with Mr. Mills, the step-son of Mr.
Fawcet, also a brother of the sock, or rather of the
dipper, as his theatrical merit never placed him in a
higher situation M the London theatre than walking
in a procession, or " slipping a billet dour!' We
do not wish to inquiry into family semis, they sel-
dom prove secrelr wart 4 hipi..trig", but they had
lived separate ramie time prior to her death. Various
causes were assigned, all, perhaps, equally untrue.
Mrs. Mills'. debut in Covent-garden theatre Vas in
Little Pickle, at the commencement of a season. She
was totally unknown to a London audience. No
newspaper Writer had followed her from town to
town, reciting what she had played and what she
had not played. No puff. direft or indireft, an-
noonced her entree. and criticism threw its shafts
without mercy ; but sterling merit will always suc-
ceed, and she not only became a favourite with the
public, but had the distinguished honour of assist-
ing at the Frogmote royal fetes, designed by, and
executed under the direaion of Herkoyal Highness the
Princess Elizabeth. In one part of the gardens, Mrs.
Mills appeared as a gipsey,with her jack-ass and bant-
hinge, and crossed the hands, and told the fortunes of
her royal visitants with great humour. When they
reached the Tut kish pavilion, she received them as a
Tuck'sh dancer, with her casnets, and displayed all
her agility and grace for their amusement. How to
account for the oblivion she has been placed in I
lat-
terly. we confess ourselves at a loss ; her appearance
before the po'slic had so gradually declined, that
her death only reminded us of there having been
such a person in existence. She had been declin-
ing in health fur some time. and unable to attend
her daily duty. when she received an order from
Mr. Kensble to appear at the rehearsal of Th.
Sirviver, with an inuendo " No nork. no Friy.'
Determined tai present herself at the Theatre, her
appearance bespoke approaching dissolution. and her
At-mance being dispensed with, Mr. Harris di.

re. ed an application to her to relinquish her engage-
ment, and she should receive 301. This she retusetl.
and Mr. Harris, with his wonted liberality, allowed
her SI per week, which was, however, unequal to the
expence attendant on an illness like here, and she
was so often obliged to apply to her friends for pe-
cuniary assistance, that she became totally deserted,
and left to the care of her nurse; who (buld have
said with the Poet,
" No friend's compl.iot, no kiwi, rtoowstie tear,
Pleas'el thy pale ghott, or gm, 'el thy mournful bier."

At this awful period, het brother, Jrho is in the
musical line, and resides at Canterbury, wrote, and
prevailed miller to go down to his house. kihe sur•
rived her journey a very short time ; and, like all
other consumptive persons, to the last moment
spoke of her recovery, and fulfilling the engage.
ments she had entered into for the skimmer with the
provincial theatres.
• Mrs. Mills's sister, Mrs. Lee, also an Altress of
considerable merit, died about a year since in Lon-
don Her dissolution was as rapid, and, in every
particular, similar. She had kind benefaCtors, who
paid all expences that occurred by her decease ; and
it was not unusual for her to receive a benefaftion of
591. at a time, to ameliorate the pangs of sickness.
Mrs. Mills is a serious loss to her protession ; she
always pleased, and oftener reached perfeetion, than
fell below k. Her Little Piekle had but one supe-
rior. Her Umbel, and Phobe Whitethern, ne equal.
HerJaeintha, and Sophia Warren, were well conceived,
and happily executed. In private life, she was
good-humoured, good-natured, and playful In
her dealings, honourable and just. She was a good
figure, had good eyes, and good teeth ; and some-
thing in the express:on of her face, extremely
pleasing. She was studious and attentive to her pro
fession, not only corred herself, but could prompt
any person that was at a loss.

CHILD STEALING.

PUIPLIC-OITI.CE,GILEAT M•IlLBOILOUG11-11T CUT.
About 11 o'clock yesterday morning, a number of
persons of every description assembled at the Ma-
gistrate's Office, Great Marlborough-street, and the
crowd continued to increase until halt past twelve, to
such a degree :is to fill the back and front offices,
and the street, and several passages leading to them-
7ohn MarartAy was then brought before Mr.
NEAVE• the presiding Magistrate, on a charge of
having stolen - Mathews, a female infant,
about three years old.
The mother, Elizabeth Mathew., who carried the
child in her arms, was first examined. She deposed,
that she lived at No. 4, Paradise-place, Mary-la-
bonne, and that about six or seven o'clock on Satur-
day evening last, she left her child playing
with other children in Paddington-street. In
some &non time, she missed her from amongst her
play-fellows ; and, after making some inquiry, be-
came quite alarmed about her. She instantly went
in search of her ; but, after making every inquiry
that was possible, she was almost in a state of de-
spair, when, in about an hour, she was informed
t4at her child was in Queen Ann-street, West, and
that the prisoner, Macarthy, with whom it was
found, was then in custody, at Mary-la-bonne lane
watch-house.

Thomas Skinner, a gentleman's servant, was
next examined : he stated that in passing through
Mansfield-street, Cavendish-square, between seven
and eight o'clock, on Saturday evening, he met the
prisoner with the little girl in question, upon his
shoulders : she cried most bitterly, and the Prisoner
endeavoured to prevent her from doing so, by slap-
ping her on the face, and using other violence.
Having entered into conversation with a man of the
name of Thomas White, who happened to come up
at the time, Witness and he concluded that, from
the appearance of the Prisoner, whose apparel was
very mean, the child could not bzlong to him : in
consequence of which they pursued, and topped him
in Chandos-street. Upon examination, he appeared to
be much intoxicated, and not being able to give a
srtisfadory account of himself, they proceeded to
bring him back to Queen Anne-street, when a great
concourse of people gathered round them ; and, after
giving some very unsatisfailiory answers, he sudden-
ly rushed through the crowd, and made off towards
Wigmore.street, where he was apprehended, and
lodged in Mary-la-Ronne watchhouse.
Mr. Nrava then asked the child if she could
speak, who immediately replied, “ Yes, Sir, and I
will tell you all about it." She was then placed upon
the table. tier appearance was extremely interest-
ing, her rosy face bloomed with health, and was
animated with the smile of intelligence ; her features
and person were remarkably pretty and genteel.
She was dressed in a blue striped ficck and a little
blue spotted bonnet. The first thing she described
was a severe bruise on her right knee, which ap-
peared much torn, as if by gravel ; she then sheaved
a black mark on her thigh, and pu•ting her hands
in her mouth, spewed in what manner the Prisoner
had hurt her, and pointed out some other marks of
violence under her chin.

The Magistrate asked, if, in consequence of this
violence, any blood had been shed ? and the Wit-
nesses, who had been before examined, stated, that
her mouth and knee had both bled very much.
Several other Witnesses e'er's ready to be ex,
amined ; but the Magistrate ,ibsiti'ving. th:st the
Get of taking away the chili tort MIT, being already
clearly proved, he did not think it necesairy to take
any further depositions.
The Prisoner was then called upon for what
he had to say in his defence. lie was a very
stout, tall man, near six feet high, and about thirty-
five years of age. He said he was a bricklayer's
labourer, and had worked in the vicinity of Oxford-
street ; on that day he had taken a little too much
drink early in the morning, and having received
some money from a gentleman, he had drank himself
into a state of complete ititoxicatioo I that he was
so drunk, he knew not what he did, and was totally
ignorant of the charge brought 2g.llllSt him, or the
cause of his confinement, until he awoke on Sunday
morning, and found himself in the watch-house.
&evenl respectable persons were called to his cha-
rafter, who all spoke of him a; a nun of sobriety
and good conduct, but particularly the two persons
by whom be had been last employed ; they described
bins as an honest, industrious, and hard-working
man. The Magistrate took bail tor his appearance
at the nest Quartet Sessions. '

liOltitlik MURDER.
On Sunday morning it horrid murder was eottiv
fitted in a ditch about two miles northward of
Cullercoats camp, upon the body of William Hart-
ley Pitman, aged 55 years, supposed by Thomas
CI Ire, one of the privates in the Staffordshire Miiiria,
encamped at the former place. Clare was COW.
mitted to Morpeth Gaol on Wednesday last, to take
his trial at the neat assizes for the County of Nor-
thumberland.

The following are a few of the circumstances ac-
companying thi . dreadful transatlion
The deceased went with one of his sons, on Satur-
day evening, to a small public-house, nett. Earsdens
where he got rather intoxicated, and would not go
home with his son, who, having had occasiou to go
a little Mut ther, left his father, and called again for
him about ten o'clock. After the son was gone, the
father got out of the house, and missing his way,
strayed to the fatal spot, rather more than a mile,
close by the foot-path, leading from fintiey to
‘Vitley, when his remains, horribly mangled, were
found in the morning. It seems some of the men
from the camp had of late got out early in the
moroioo, to gather musltr,orns. Thom is Clare
had that morning, about three o'clock, gore tint
by himself, and was followed soon after by soother
private of the same corps, and two drum hays The
latter party spoke to Clare in the fields, and risked
him whether he was going a mushroornin;; that mori -
log He answered, he was, and soon left the..,.
A short time afterwards, they Maid a voice
screaming much, and observed to each other, that
the farmer had caught Clare amongst his pe .1 and
beans, as they knew such a field W.la near, and
chastising him severely ;'they ran to rescue thtir
comrade from the supposed farmer, but 16st t. e
voice, and heard three heavy knocks or blows. (:n
crossing a stile, they observed a foraging-C, .
which, a short time before, they saw upon C1i0...
head, lying in the footpath, and on approaching it,
they saw a man jump out of the hedge side, a mew
lards from it, run four or five yards, brush over a
hedge into a clover field, and run towards the sea t
one of them instantly cried out " There goes Clare:6
They then approached the spot where ‘dare set out
from, aid found the body of Hartley Pit.nan
warm, but lifeless, his bead terribly. bruised,
and a stick taken from Sr. adjoining gateway
laying near the corpse, h.s lips cur, and some
of his teeth broken, and many mortal bruises ;
and his pockets turned inside out. They soon met
another of their comrades, and slimed him the
body, when they all set out for the camp, and
found Clare had arrived L. fore them, with some of
the clover grass sticking in his shoe suings, and
wrapt in a blanket, as if asleep; he was apprehend-
ed immediately, and the Coroner's .lury, after sitting
two days upon the evidence, braught in a verdiel of
If d/bl Alerekr against Thomas Clare. The prisoner
is about twenty-one yeais of age, and was only mar-
ried about two months since.

barge led the van (he being Commodore upon the
occasion), and rowing round the Iflntber cos vette,
she saluted the company with a discharge of artil-

another launch, which, as usual from that yard,
went of in grand sti:e, amidst the applause of the
multitude, and a thundering salute of cannon from

proceeded to the mouth of the harbour, attend d by
numerous other pleasure boats, ss hich assisted the de-

landed, and then went to the assembly-room, where
they continued till twelve. In ►hort the whole was
condo:Fled with r degree of regularity and order that
gave universal satislathon. The display orb.•.tu•y
was so great, that. since the 4th of June, there has
not been in Dartmluth such a blaze of elegance and

had state of the ship, so as to be now obliged to go
into do!k.
The fitforniag Chomirle of New York, datediuly 10,
says, " The ship Charles And iferrie!, Capt. DE LA so,
of New Redford, from Sligo for this port, with 210
passengers, arrived here yesterday. They left S igo
en the I .'ith of May, and on coming on the coast, were
informed that the Camdrann and,Reittra frigates were at
or near the harbour of New fork. ('apt o
from motives accordingly agreed to come through the
Sound ; on arriving off Thrng's Neck, understanding
the quarantine law es-a; in force, and tett itied at the
apprehension of a long detention on board, the
Passenger formed a determination to force a land-
ing, and in spite of the opposition of the Captain
and Officers, elTeLled it at Bunt's Point, in Vest
Chester. Captain flit ANO, on discovering their in-
tention, which first displayed itself in the attempt
of several to swim on shore, at med himself and
Officers, and threatened, if they offered to leave the
vessel, to tire on them; but neither threats nor pen-
suasion had any avaii; they gave him to understand
that any aft of hostility on his part would be made
at the risque of his lite ; that they we-e determined
that no opposition that he could bring into exercise
was adequate to prevent the execution or their de-
sign ; having accarding:y engaged such boats as
approached them trom the shore, men, women, and
children, to an amount of nearly the whole number,
:node a landing in the course of Sunday, and set
off on toot to trod their way to the city. They
are all remarkably healthy, having had no sickness
on Igia:d, since they left Sligo, and (except a child
iivirLara stied in a fit) no death. '
