would effectually cover that place. BUON APA aTi. no E °on er •
observed the success of his feint, than he hastened back tp
Viasma and proceeded in the straight road to S,nolensko
without an ene►ny before him.

Ile had removed the danger of being cut off from that city,
but he had incurred another, which no human means, in his
situation, could mitigate, and which proved not less ruinous
to his army. He had lost four days in deceiving the Russians
at a time when every hoer annouoced the nearer approach
of winter in all its horrors, and be had loaded himself with
wounded, who would impede and delay his march, when no•
thing but, its rapidity could save his army from destruction.
Had this happened early in October, it would indeed have
rescued him from all his ,difficulties. Ile would have re•*
treated safely to Smolensko, and ft om thence to- itespk,•
before WITTGENSTEIN could have driven ST. Cm and the
Bavarians from Polotzk, and would have been able to take
his winter quarters on the Dwina. But it was now too late.
Three days before he arrived at Smolensko, the cold had be-
come so severe, that one half of his horses and great ntlm-
hers of his men had perished, and one half of his artillery
had been abandoned. Winter had now openly espoused the
cause of Russia, and ai med even nature against him. He
had eluded the opposition of man: but encountered still
more terrible antagonists—frost, snow, and famine. These
Checked liis flight, and gave time for the vengeance of his
pursuers to overtake him. Inure& to.the climate, the Russi-
ans rushed with fiercer indignation against an enemy, whom)
they saw evading their blows. Hardships were forgotten,
difficulties were surmounted. • The Cossacks overtook,. liar-
pissed, and delayed him. A division of Russian infantry
came up with him, and defeated his rear, whiIst.KUTUSOWs
with the main army, marching across the country, attempted
to regain the advantage he bad lost, and to react Smolensko
before him. Notwithstanding the complicated impediments
which the French incessantly encountered, this was not in his
•
power. He had suffered himself t° be led too far out of the
tight road. They entered Smolensko on the 9th of Novem-
ber, and it .W. 3.6 only on the 14th be approached that place.
Notwithstanding the heavy losses of men, horses, and ar-
tillery, be had already experienced, NAPOLEON still I,,oessed
a formidable army.. Indeed, his junctiott with Vic 101e$
corps at -Smolensko had rendered his •force nearly equal to
.whal, it was when he left Mescow. He was now abundantly
'Supplied. with provisions, and occupied a town which, though
partly burnt in his advance, had since been repaired and
Strongly fortified. It was not large enough to site Der his
whole army, but it would contsi'n a nunierows gar. ison, to
*check the pursuit of the Russians, whilst he might distiibue
the Test of his troops along the Dwtna and the Borystbenes,
at Polotzk, Dunaburg, Witespk, Moltitow, and Minsk. Such

PANTHEON.

It was nth' intention to 14;l% e given a detailed aeconnt of the per-
fot'inanr•es at this theatre this week, but %%rant of roam compels ing
to delay it till our next. The persecution which this House has ex.
perienced for the last two years, and which we regret to find, still
cohtiones, however calls-for our instant leprobatiotr. Every endea-
vour to put down au establishment of this kind, is an attempt to cur-
tail the aninsenlent of the public, against which it is in fact directed.
This is not an age in which the claims of monopoly can be ad-
initted. The be*st way of opposition is to display superior merit
and attractions ; and we wonder that the ManagiTs of a summer
Theatre, that possesses the hest company in town. and has dewy-
tdly met with so ranch patronage, should have thought it neces-ary
to unite in the ungraceful task of stippressing a dramatic establish-
ment, too distant, and too much in its infancy, to give them any
reasonable grounds for alai in.

BRIGII FON, Arc;. 6

Our Theatre, dm ing the present week, has been nume-
rously attended; and once mare bids fair to become the
focus of attraction, and thus remunerates the exertions of
the Manager, Mr. JosEen GROVE, who has introduced a
gitater succession of new and distinguished performers, than
we ever remember to have seen in our town. The Misses
DEN NIT T joined on Monday; they areileservedly favourites,
amd many of their dances boast considerable ingenuity.
EMERY, who is to be succeeded by that divine songstress
CAT A L ANI, finished his engagement on Wednesday, in
110111tVilln The well-known merits of this performer,
we are sorry to see, did not prove as attractive as usual; in-
deed that should not cause wonder, for the libraries boast so
much, and such varied amusements, that they are irresisti-
ble ; that deep play is sometimes allowed at them, we cannot
believe. The Play of the Heir at .Law, taken as a whole,
was the best performance of the season. BLANCHARD,
WATSON, LAD BROKE and GORDON, all performers of
merit, made very effectively pleasing the characters of Lord
Dulerly, Kenriek, StedAst, and Henry *Morland ; and Mrs.
LA DBROKE, certainly the best representative of old women
o'..f the London.boards, was truly diverting in Lady Duberly.
Transplanted by the vagaries of fortune, from- a chandler
shop to a carriage, the vulgar coarseness of early habits was
admirably and fancifully blendid with her whimsical con-
ception of the polish of high life. Miss Bt, ANC!! A RD, as
e(ei.',./, displayed much met it in thAt line of acting : and the
Caro!ine Dorincr of Miss SYDNEY was all that was captivat
in ;• and tender. Characters of this and a similar description
conic most directlf within the scope of her powers. This
lady is a most useful actress ; she also sings with much taste
and expression, but it is in genteel comedy she excels. There,
where violent and very spirited exertion is not required,
her elegant figure, interesting person, and cultivated talents,
eminently qualify her, at no distant period, to hold a dis-
tinguished situation on the Metropolitan boards. Every
bnx for CATALANI'S first appearance to morrow night, is
ale. taken.

On Thursday the remains of the late Dr. RANDOLPH,
1,01,d 111,110 p of London, were interred in a private manner
at Fulham. St. Paul's hell tolled an hour on the occasion.

NTIIFOV We/lilt-414y an information- iiris
hee rd at this Office, before N. Conant anti R. Baker, E.rirs.. preferred
by Mr. Itlartitidale, of the Stable-yard, St. .lame-'s, against 11Ir.
Coady, proprietor Gf the above Theatre, for illegally promoting
the performance of the regular drama at that house. This theatt e
wt is opened a fortnight ago, by the authority of a license from the
31agictrates, for the performance of English operas ; and it was lirgfli
in the present kstance„ that the regular drama was nightly per.
fui Med there, uiiisont the authority of a patent, or a licence from
the Lord Chamberlain.

Tn support of the information, Mr. Raymond, the performed., was •
called, who stated that he went to the Pantheon on the V.2:1 of July,
the first night of its opening, when the Ope of the Cabinet uai
performed in the same manner as at one of the winter theaters. The
langnage was spoken, and not (+minted, and the only variation w,ms
the sound ot'a piano-forte at intervals. Proof was next addoetd
that no patent had been granted to the Theatre for the perfmmance
of the drama ; nor had any license been obtained of the Lord
Chamberlain, to authorise such proceedings. The theatre eriginally
was licensed by the Lord Chamberlain, for the performance of Ma-
lian operas, but this license had long since expirtd.
The Solicitor, in support of the information, produced various
letters of Mr. Cund's to the Chamberlain's Office, so.iciting
license, and stating himself to have been ruined by delusive promi,e,
held out to him and which induced him to embark his whole pro-
perty in time concern.

The necessary proofs having been gone through, the IVlagistrale
convicted the defendant in the penalty of 501. Mr. tundy.
however, gave notice of his intention to appeal against the con-
viction at the Quarter Sessions.

The Solicitor for the information observed, that the object of
appeal Was easily to be nuderstood ; the defendant had in view the
keeping open the house to the end of the season : but he tvould
give Mr. Comdy to understand, that unless the performances imme-
diately ceased, he would he proceeded against, with the whole of
the performers, for distinct penalties, as rogues and vagabonds. The
matter here rests at present.

NO. 293.

Whilst an armistice continues to close the scene of war in
the Not th, and the assembling Congress prepares to involve
the fate of Europe in the obscurity of negociation, we turn
in vain our eyes towards the Peninsula, to trace the move-
ments of the contending armies. Since the arrival of SouLT
at Bayonne with reinforcements, and the re-organization of
Joscrtes defeated host, no intelligence has been received
that confirms the expectation of a fresh battle, now con-
.fidently entertained. This silence may precede a new explo-
sion, but with the example of the past before us, we await
it, not only without alarm, but with the most sanguine an-
ticipations, and the best founded hopes. The urgency of
relieving St. Sebastian and Pampeluna may be great, and
may induce SOULT to risk a general engagement with the
'force he has collected to effect that purpose, yet we almoit
fear that considerations still more weighty will restrain him.
The army which be now commands is the last that can be
assembled for a considerable length of time on the western
frontiers of France. If it is beaten, who can check our pro-
gress through the most fertile French provinces ? It is,
therefore, both his interest and his duty, to endeavour to raise
the siege of St. Sebastian and Pampeluna, by demonstt•ations
only. It is equally our interest and duty to compel him to
fight a battle. Ile is now playing NIARMONT'S•game before
our victory at Salamanca. With greater means than he then
.possessed, our WELLINGTON is onliis guard to avail himself
of his first error, and to give him an equally decisive over-
throw. Whilst the statesmen of the north wield
.the.pen,'
and the warriors of the west the sword, and wild t the fate,
both of negociation and' of war, still hangs undetermined,
an opportunity is left us of directing our attention to other
objecti, highly interesting, if not of such immediate import-
ance.

EULOGY
*TO THE MEMORY OP THAT EXCELLENT PERSON AND

DISTINGUISHED PHILANTHROPIST,
THE. LATE GRANVILLE SHARP, ESQ.

ADDRESSED tO A FRIEND.

Why mourns my friend, in sorrow's deepest gloom ?
Why heaves his bosom, with such poignant grief?
That matchless merit sinks into the tomb ?
Painful the change to us—to him, relief.
Shall worth like his unto the grave descend,
Without the tribute of one parting lay;
Shall SHARP! so long, of ail mankind, the friend,
Unlionoild, leave u;, for the realms of day ?
No : every virtue round thy bier shall weep ;
And Britain's sons partake a gen'ral sigh ;
The sable children of the western deep,
Shall join in sorrow, with a widow's cry—
That lost for ever, is that holy flame,
Which ncrv'd thy arm, and strung thy pow'rfal tongue,
rimpeach Oppression's ever guilty name.
And plead the Freeman's Rights—the Captive's Wrong.
Thy Genius pierced first, the darksome night,
Where groaning Africa, despairing lay,
Her woes, unthought of, met Britannia's sight;
God said, " let Sharp exist :" and all was day.
Nor slept thy arm through many a Conflict dire,
With pallid avarice, it long
Till Senates witness'd the consuming fire
Of truth; and Lust and Cruelty were both enchanfd.
Nor Slavery shall escape thy deadly blow ;
To error's reign, a loud alarm is giv'n ;
Freedom's the right of ev'ry man below ;
Conviction travels like the light of heav'n.
lUpled by thee, the Muse with wings elate,
Sees days approach, when neither grief nor pain,
Nor wrong, nor strife, disturb man's happy state,
But earth enjoys her own Messiah reign !
In youth, thy mind eurich'd with learning's page ;
Truth for its guide ; benevolence its aim ;
Prov'd justice to be law : t nor envy's rage,
Could intercept from thee, the wreath of fame.
Religion claimed thee for her meekest son,
'naiad her precepts, and her doctrines pure,
Though affluent, taught thee ev'ry vice to shun,
Tby wealth not on thyself bestow, but on the poor.
What nnm'rous blessings, the distress'd have giv'n !
What human woes have been assuag'd by thee!
A recompense awaits thy soul in heav'n,
And shines thy crown to all eternity !
Ye F whom the world calls great, mark welt his end •
Heroes or Statesmen ! can your deeds compare,
With SHARP! so long, of all mankind, the friend; •
Or can you hope a bliss like his to share ?
A bliss like hii, you'll share, if faithful found,
Nobly pursuing the high road lie trod ;
Elijah's mantle never reacted the ground,
Caught by Elisha, troth Elijah's God.
•
Meek, venerable sage ! a long Farewell!
Some montunental stone thy Deeds may bear,
There pensive Genius shall delight to dwell,
And mingle with thy honor'd Dust, a Tear.

tnittee for the abolition of the Shiiteie; till the great object was

tody on suspicion of picking the pocket of the Earl of Normanton and
several other gentlemen, at Vinockall Gardens, on the night of the
grand Fcte, was brought up to Office, for re-examination. Since he
was lest examined, Collingboui n, in the course of his inquiries, disco-
vered that he had lodged. together with a female who passed for his
wife, and under the name of Wilson, at a house in Windmill-street. The
Officer accordingly went to the home, and on searching the lodgings,

- QUEBEC PAPERS.

QUEBEC, JUNE 11.
GENERAL ORDEL—HEAD-QUARTERS, KINGSTON.
Adjutant-Generals Mice, Jnne 3.
The Cctrmander of the Forces has received from Brigadier. Ge. •
nem! Vincent a report, announcing that the enemy. inr can-
nonaded from his batteries lid hips, the whole of the 4th and t sth •
of May, the fortress and works of Fort George, and very materially
destroyed and injured the defences of that post, on the 517th, at day--
break, made a general attack upon that position, and. under of
their fleet, which It( Pt up a tremendous and most destructive
tire, etketed the landing of a body of troops, tenfold as numerous
as the detachment allotted for the defence of that portion of the
Niagara frontier. •

Regardless of the immense superiority of the enemy, his advance
was gallantly and obstinately disputed--a judicious position was oc-
cupied by Lieutenant-Colonel Myers ; and when that zealous and
meritorious officer was ohligtd to quit the field, having received
three wounds, he wag ably replaced by Lieutenant-Colonel Harvey,
and the unequal contest continued with unshaken gallantry and de-
termication.

Brigadier-General Vincent, considering farther per,everenee
against an overwhelming fwee, a frmitless sacrifice of invaluable
lives, and having pined by their intrepid resistance the means of
dismantling the fort, and destroying the stores, directed the troops
to fall back on Queenston, which was done with perfect order.
Brigadier-General Vincent reports that the nwvements were
ably covered by the companies .of the Glengarry light infantry,
strengthened by a detachment of Royal Newfoundland • Fencibles,
and Militia, and thuve troops were gallantly sustained by a division
of the Bth, or King's regiment, commanded by Major Ogilvie.
Brigadier-General Vincent has concentrated Ins force in a strong
position at the head of the Lake.
EDWARD BAYNES, Adjutant-General.

The private letters state p.ir loss at Fort George at 350 killed
.and wounded. Colonel Myers received three wounds. The
American Colonel Preston issued a proc;amation on 30th May,
dated from Fort Erie,' in which he addressed the inhabitants of Up-
per Canada as a conquered people. This proclamation was an-
swered by another published, by Sir G. L'revost, on 14th June, in
which he refers to the. % ictory obtained by General Vincent on the
Pith, and states that the squadron under Sir' J. Yeo was in undis-
turbed posse. ion of the•latkeit. The enemy on the 11th, in con-
sequence of General Vincent's brilliant achievement,. were retreat-
ing in etniffision to Fort George, and their road bark king all along
the bank of the Ontario, and eing occasionally within reach of
Sir J. Yen's gun's, it is probable that they won'd be much aonoyecil
and even possible that their retreat may be cut off.
