HAYMARKET THEATRE.

This theatre was last night crowded to excess in every
part to witness the re appearance of Miss PATON. Many
persons were, no doubt, attracted thither in the expecta-
tion of some disturbance, whilst many more, as it seems,
were assembled to afford her a hearty welcome. Oa her
entrt as Rosinu in The Barber of Seville, the pit rose
en masse, to greet her with cheers, the waving of hats,
handkerchiefs, and every other mode which could testify
a most cordial reception ; and this feeling was largely par-
ticipated in by the boxes and galleries—though it must in
candour be admitted that a few unharmonious sounds might
be heard at intervals ; but they were in the proportion of
one to one thousand. In return for so enthusiastic a greet-
ing, it is but justice to add that Miss PATON very greatly
exerted herself, and was encored in two or three of her
songs ;—amongst them, " An old man would be wooing,"
which she sang very charmingly. So completely does she
seem to have the public with her, that they lost no oppor-
tunity of applying to her advantage such parts of the dia-
logue as seemed to bear upon her circumstances, For
many reasons, we should have thought that Clari, of all
characters, would have been the last in which she herself
would have chosen to appear, it has throughout so many
painful allusions to her own situation. She, nevertheless,
played it with seeming indifference, as regarded her own
feelings, but with great spirit as regarded the character.
Her song of, " Home, sweet home," we were greatly dis-
appointed in—it was splendid as an effort of art, but it
was over-embellished, and lost in pathos what it gained
in ornament. At the conclusion of Choi, Mr. 13R1NDAL
stepped forward to announce the next night's performances
but was not permitted to give it out from the uproarious
call in the pit and gallery for Miss PATON. This cla►nour
continuing fora considerable time unabated, she at length
appeared, led on by the stage-manager, Mr. PERCY FAR-
[LEN; after repeated courtesying to all parts of the house,
she retired, seemingly much impressed by the enthusiastic
cordiality of her reception. Miss PATON was announced
for Thursday, as Polly in the Beggar's Opera, and Rox-
alana in the Sultan.

PAUL CLIFFORD.--The additions made to
the new edition of this celebrated novel will give a fresh
impetus to a circulation which was already almost with-
out a parallel. The new matter consults of Court
Affiiirs—of some 13st words to the memory of " Gentle-
man George," anti of the posthumous papers found in
the cabinet of Augustus Tomlinson, of whom it might
aptly be said " We shall not look upon his like again."—
" Paul Clifford" is indeed the best of Mr. BULIVEA'S works.
REPRESENTATION OF LIVERPOOL.—TIic
right of election in this town, as declared by a resolution
of the House of Commons, dated March 5, 1729, is ad-
mitted to be in the Mayor, bailiffs, and freemen not re-
ceiving alms, and the supposed number of electors is esti-
mated at 3,000. The last contest for the honour of repre-
senting this important town in Parliament was at the ge-
neral election in 1820, when the candidates were Mr.
CANNING, who was then President of the Board of Con-

!mu!, General ISAAC GASCCWNR (the present sitting
Member), Doctor Cu.:ninon, and a gentleman named
LEYLAND. The two latter, however, were left in a woful
minority, only polling 470 votes out of 2,162.

The Countess of MOIRA, in a letter pub-
Nobel in the Archreo/opio, mentions that a human body
was found under moss, eleven feet deep, on an estate in
Ireland, belonging to the Earl. The body was completely
clothed in garments made of hair, which were fresh and
not at all decayed ; and though hairy vestments evidently
point to a period extremely remote, before the introduc.
tion of sheep and the use of wool, yet the body and the
clothes were no way impaired.

BRIGHTON, SEPT. 20.—The weather last
night was most tempestuous, the equinoctial gales have
set in with considerable violence, and it is feared that
there have been several wrecks. The dead body of one
man was washed ashore this morning, and the fishermen
were in search of another which had been seen floating;
it is feared that there will be many casualties of this kind
to relate, and there is no doubt that the man who has
been found farmed part of the crew of some ship which
must have foundered near the coast.

Ministers, it is said, intend to transfer the
collection of the assessed taxes to the Excise and Custom-

house dicers; which will only tend to make these imposts
more unpopular than they are already.
PARIS, SEP; 19.-A curious circumstance
occurred here on Saturday last. The KING and " his
wife" (as he calls the Queen) attempted to take a walk in
the garden and colonnades of the Valais Royal, but were
so much incommoded by the pressure of the people, 'that
his AIAJESTY was obliged to address them, earnestly en-

treating " a portion of that liberty which was the birth-
right of every Frenchman." This sensible appeal hid its
effect on the pasties within hearing of it, and who imme-
diately dispersed, but the crowd continued so to increase—
(shcuting, it is true, Vice le Roi I Vise la Reine
that the Royal couple (the QUEEN and " her husband")
were obliged to take refuge in the shop of Ctivirr, the re-
nowned Marchand deComestibles.—Morning herald.

IRISII CIRCUMLOCUTION.-...-." Observing
one day an unusual commotion in the streets of Derry, I
inquired of a bystander the reason ; and he, with a melli.
'Mous brogue, replied in the following metaphorical man-
ner The rason, Sir, why you see that *Notice and
little LARRY O'HONK, the carpenter, have been putting
up a picture-frame at the end of the strati: yonder, and
they are going to hang one of Adam's copies' in it.'
What's that Why,
,poor IquaDOCK O'DoNNEL.'
Oh, there'. a man to be hung?'.-...' Do they put up a
gallows for any other purpose ?' What's his offence ?'
No offence, your Honour ; it was only a liberty he took.'
' Well, what was the liberty?'-.-' Why, you see, Sir, poor
Illunimex was in delicate health, and his physician ad-
vised that he should take exercise on horseback; and so,
having no horse of his own, he borrowed one from Squire
Doxi.x's paddock ; and no sooner was he on its showlders,
than the Divil put it into the eracher's head to go over to
Kellogreen cattle fair, where he had a good many acquaint-
ances • and when begot there Muanocx spied a friend at
the door of a sheheen-house, and left the animal grazing
outside; whilst lie went in to have a thimbleful of whisky;
and then, you see, they got frisky, and had another, and
another, till poor MURDOCK went to slape on the -binch ;
and when he wouke up he found the cracher gone, and
his pocket stuffed full with a big lump of money.' In
short,' said I, you mean to say lie has been home-steal-
ing ?'—' Why, Sir,' he replied, stammering and scratch-
ing his head, ' they call it so in England.' "—Bernard's
