The performance went off with the greatest eclat..
The arrangements of the Stage were such as are sel-
dom witnessed. The splendour and propriety of the
Tartar and Chinese costumes completed the dramatic
illusion.

The After-piece which succeeded was that laugh-
able prouation 4>IIVILALLINsuAba, 'Tis all a Farce.
The characters were cast as follow
Don Cortez - Lieut. BELLINGHAM.
•
Colonel Beigarde - - Capt. RUSHBR.OOKE.

Th,- Audie►nce were convulsed with laughter dur-
ing the Farce, but most particularly in those scenes
which were enlivened with the drbllcries of the
Hungry Hero. The Earl of CHATHAM and hi Lady,
together with the General Of and their Staff',
&c. were present, who were highly gratified with
the evening's amusement. Between the Play and
the Farce, an Address was admirably delivered by
Capt. Ouvisß, in the diameter of Orasming, a
Conspirator.

THE THEATRE.--The very pleasant Comedy, of
The 411erry Wives If Windsor, was represented last
night at Covent-Garden. Theatre, and the chief
comic strengal of the Company gave to. it such force
and spirit as. rendered it highly amusing to a nu-
merous audience. • Mr. STlpitor Kx3IBLE was the
Foste and he performed the charaEer with even
more effearthati he did in Kiv Henry the Fourth.
It is but justice to say, that- he entered thoroughly
into the spirit of the part; and displayed a critical
knowledge of the text. Altogether laiS performance
is iodisputatrly the best that. has. beeti seen since the
clays of Hrwinsaaotc--Roma .deserves a very com-
mendatory notice for the-manner in, which he sup-
ported the charadter or BAIL—Mrs. GLOVER and
Mrs. MArroexs, were sprightly in the chaq&ers of
Mrs. Ford abd Mrs. Page.- LISTON'S Master
Sleskler was a' very diverting specimen of ludicrous
simplicity. The Play was also much indebted to
FLAN CHARD and EMERY, for the merit they dii-
played in Sir Hugh 4vahsy and the Host of the
barter.

The dramatic Piece which Messrs. TOPITAM and
' *ANDREWS are preparing for the Public is to be an
Opera. It is to be brought forward it Covent Gar-
den Theatre. The former writes the Prologue, and
the latter, of course,• the Epilogue.
This day, about one o'clock, the remains of the late
Lord TRURLOW were deposited in a vault in the Inner
Temple Church. The Funeral Procession consisted of a
hearse and six, five mourning coaches and four, and
ten Noblemen and Gentlemen's carriages. •

The PRINCE of WALES took leave of the Earl and
Countess of DERBY on Sunday, after a very gratify-
ing reception among the people of Liverpool and all
the neighbouring inhabitants. He then proceeded
by Warrington, Knutsford, Macclesfield, Buxton,
Chesterfield, and Worksop to Doncas-
ter. He stopped in his way to view the beauties of
,Chatsworth, . the famous seat 'of the DEVONSHIRE
larnily. The PRINCE had not left Doncaster when
the last accounts of his, excursion were received.
'Lie Mayor and Corporation of the' town were to
present an Address to his Royal Highness on Tues-
day last, and the people in' general testified the
highest pleasure at seeing the first-born of their
revered and beloved Monarch.

The brass field-piece which was taken from the
Spaniards at Buenos Ayres, is now in the ToWer,
It is to be newly polished, and a fresh carriage of
the most beautiful workmanship added to it. When
finished, it is to be placed in the centre of the Court
at St. James's Palace, where the Guards parade.
The Rev. Mr. MAURICE, who unites the powers
of the Antiquary, the Historian, and the Poet, is at
present, we find,' engaged in.a poetical composition
on the beauties of Richmond Hill and its delightful
vicinity. The place which has thus been seiceled
by his Muse is endeared by a classical Charm, as well
as by its natural graces, as it has been the favourite
retreat of our Heroes, Statesmen, and Poets. From
a mind so amply stored with learning, and animated
by genius, as that of Mr. MAURICE, we may fairly
anticipate a work of distinguished merit. '
