THE THEATRE.—The Tragedy o . Cormfano.
warepreseittea again last night' at boveht-Garden
Theatre, and Was, ,agaiii attended by a putnerOds
audience. We illAy apply . the words •of the
Play to the chief Performer as. well as to the
Hero of the Piece, for:4 may fairly be said that
KEMBLE " 'outd6i's all his former deeds" in
the. representation of t part-.. His
sudden pauses, bursts: of 'rage, quick trausitions,
general spirit and dignity, fi\lly 'embody theeha-
racler as drawn by. the Poet, and exhibit an example
of theatrical excellence that Would have done ho-
Dour to the Stage at any period. Mrs. SinotiNs, as
far as the charader of Valumnia will admit, dis-
plays correspondent merit, and participates _in all
the applause, which is most liberally given. :Mos-
DEN enters into the humorous part" of Areneneiks
with great judgment, and is veey'successful in taunt-
ing the Tribunes. POPE eses a powerful support
to. the Piece in Aglidius. Never was a4.'drama
brought t:t;rward with mure appropriate grandeur ;
and the whole is. so much in the costutt'e of the
time, that in hearing the seutiMents and witnessing
tin. piauresque beauty and splendour of the scenery,
the spectators may well imagine that" Old' Tithe
has..turned track," and that they are seated in Ixt•
PEEIAL ROME.

A rude stone obelisk has been lately noticed in

It has been alreadrigtated, that a'poor woman of
the name of Steven Vvas:found dead on' SalloW-field-
Common, in a situation which led to a sup-
position that she had been murdered. On an inquest
sluing on the body, the Jury were of opinion that
she had been killed by a bull. Several persons proved
haVing heeti attacked by an animal of that descrip-
,tion, the property of' a farmer of the name of Trot,-
ter: 'the bull Was consequently penned for slaughter,
and one of the horns was discovered to be bloody,
which tended to confirm the belief that the poor
woman had been killed by him. The Jury returned
a verclia of Accidental Death.

A female of respeelable appearance was found
drowned yesterday morning in Chelsea Reach, by
some fishermen. From the appearances of the body,
it was supposed to have been a long time in the wa-
ter. All the information that could be derived re-'
speating her -was from a part of a letter found in•ber
pocl;et, addressed to Mary Ann Goodyer, and re-
conatnedding her to a situations as Inmsekeeper to a
lamily at Battersea, the name of wbi:h was unintelA.
