Our bustle 'Cif pleasure now 'declined daily; for
our visitors are continually decreitsing. Dandelion.
,boasted all the.fashionatles around the place for Mr.
LE BAs's'benetit. The morning was delightful, acid
the scene highly festive ; nor was he less succes4ul
in his benefit ball at Kim! AN'S. There were at least
eight hundred visitors. There was a fine display of
beauty and elegance. Our Assembly on Thursday
;was but thinly attended.
The Officers of the Denbighshire Militia patron-
ized the Theatre on Friday for the beqefit of Mr.
KING. The 'Play was The Provok'd Husband,
which Was well attended. HILL and Mrs. ATKINS,
from Covent Garden Theatre, performed Young
Meadows and Rosetta here last night. with great suc-
cess..

Our Hoys continue to supply us with. new, visi-
tors, but very few compared with the number of
those who are constantly retreating.

THE THEATRE.—The excellent Comedy of The
Jealous Wife was represented on Saturday last at-
.Drnry-lane Theatre, before a numerous audience.—
WROUGRTON gave a judicious unatfeded portrait, in
Oakley, of-a husband too fondly subservient to the
jealous humours of his wife to maintain the-proper
dignity of his own charadter. The violent passions
which mark the character of Mrs. Oakley were also
well coloured by Miss Du SCAN. PALMER issoinewhat
too rough for Major Oakley, but he rendered the part
conspicuous in the Piece. The charader of Lord..
Trinket was certainly not intended to wear so very
atre6ted an aspen as it exhibited in the hands of.
DE CAW ; but some allowance must'be made for
comic Adors ; for if the Galleries will laugh,-.some
extravagance -in the performance must of course be
expe6ted.,--DowTiores Russet, like most of ..his ,
forts, was natural and forcible.---The Comedy was
followed by the splendid Romance of The Forty
Thieves. Mrs. MOUNTAIN took the charader •of
Morgiana, vacant by the removal of Mrs.
J(EMBLE, and supported it with more ease and spirit
than could be expelled, considering her general.line
of acing. She sung theairs with great skill and
effed, particUlarly the Castinet song.----The dancing
part of • the charader was ably supplied by Mrs.
SHA RPE. PURSER, an improving Adar, took- BAN-
NISTER'S part of _dui Baba, and was a very tolerable
substitute, -

Miss cno LMONDELEY, who so unfortunately lost
her life on Thursday last; was about 53 years of
agV. She possessed an excellent onderstandina,
with an uncommon flow of. wit and humour, and
the most polished manners. She was.the maternal
Hiece of the celebrated Mrs. WUFFItiGTON the me-
mory of whose talents will live for ever in theatrical
history.
THE BISHOP OF AsArii.—The Protestant
Chureli has lost one of its brigliiest ornaments in
this venerable Prelate, who died on Saturday. ' He
possessed prOfound learning, classical and scientific,
:And was one of the most vigorous Champions of
Orthodox truth and the Political Constitution of this
Country. Perhaps his temper was disposed, in the
heat of controversy, to rise log high, and to vent
itself with too much energy against his opponents;
but he was animated in the cause of truth and virtue,
and thought he could not be too severe upon false-
hood, sophistry, and
.vice. He had arrived at . the
70th year of his age, and retained the great powers
of his mind almost to his last moments. He was
in habits of great intimacy with Lord TintaLow,
Whoin he has sa soon followed to the aweful con-
fines-of the grave.

It is .;aid that the presumptuous Demagogues who
raised such a clamour At 'the Crowd•and Anchor,
do not mean to remain quiet under their disap-
pointment, hut are still beating about.the bush, in
order to start a new Candidate ; and that even if
they should again be disappointed in that objecl,
they will at least endeavour to excite commotion
among the mob before the. Hustings. We trust,
however, that these notoriety hunters will be baffled
in their aim, and that due care will be taken to
preserve public peace. It is not to be borne that a
mere handful of moody zealots should hold them-
selves forth as the great Body of Ele&ors, though
the very man whom they wanted to
.bring forward
as a Candidate was obliged to keep away from their
last meeting, because he was not entitled to vote in
that City to which he offered himself as a Repre-
sentative.

At a Great Court held for the Borough of Ips-
wich, on' the 29th of September last, the Right
Hon. WILBRAIIAM Earl of DYSART was, upon the
Motion of the late Bailiffs, supported by the Blue
Interest and the Friends of Sir ANDREW SNAPE
FIAMOND, elected High Steward of the Corporation,
in the room of the late Lord Viscount NELSON. It
being the Charter Day for ele&ing Officers, the fol-
lowing were re-eleaed in the same interest, not-
withstanding the unsuccessful ele&ion of Join:
KERRIDGE and ROBERT TROTMAN, Esqrs. for Bai-
liffs : WM. NORRIS and SAM. THORNDIKE, Esqrs.
Governors of Christ Hospital ; EDWARD WADE,
Guide of the same ; Joßsorr, Water Bailiff ;
and Tito. Wrimit:Tsom, Cryer. And the Bailiffs,
.Town-Clerk, Coroners,Clarigers, and other annual
officers, ele6led on the sth September, were, ac-
cording to established usage, sworn into their re-
-speaive offices, •
