ttii late Mrs. CRAAI FORD, who, as an Aaress,
was once the chief ornament of the British Stage,
possess.ed theatrical powers much above the ccincep-
tion of those' who only .beheld her performance; io
her declining dajls. She was the daughter of a me-
dical Man. ak Bath, and .was married very early in
life to a Mr. DANCER, an obscure theatrical Per-.
former.

After expezieneing the vicissitucle4 Of a th'eatiical
life.some years in this country, aiid in Ireland, she
arrived in Dublin, and attrafted ilbtICC of BARRY,
one of the very best Aftors of 111`i and who
even obtained a triumph over GARR ICK himself in
two or three charaders..

Mrs. MNc iR engaged the attention of BAR 'Cr.
by her personal chatms, as .well as by her great
theatrical talents.. Having performed under his
pro4Bion for some years, during the life of •Mrs.
BAltinr,, from whom he had been long separated,
and.whom, he had treated with a degree of neglea
which too plainly chews that they who, on the
Soge, can k•e'st imitate the render passions, may be
totally-dead to their inftuericin pritiate life, Mrs.
DANexa,wasleg?lly invested with those domestic
privileges which site had preVionsiyerijoyed.

BARRY, long before his second marriage, brought
Mrs. DANcEit to this Country,-and she made her•
first appearance at the little Theatre in the Hay
market. She at once manifested the powers of a
gre2.t .Aer.ress; and was. eagerly followed by the
'Town. Such merit, could
;not he" kept from the
Metropolis. She soon obtained an establishment at
the Winter 'Theatre, and became the. chief-favourite
of ,the Public for many years.

Mrs. BARRY possessed-awondercul command over
•.he feelings in Tragedy, but she was:so admirable
ako in comic patts, that it is difficult to say in
which province ,of the Drama her excellence was
most conspicuous.

-There was'a ',piercing tenderness in some of her
tones Which it was impossible fox the most tor- •
.pid heart t 6 resist. Her genins•was more evident
-in sudden flashd than in a)steady lustre.—When
she had delivered the words; and expressed the pas-
sions, of The poet in such a-manner •as. toxxeite.the
strongest and most pgitating.sympathy, she -often
fell into a careless negligence, as if she had nothing
more. to do, and. the spectators became as unconcern- !
ed as herself ; but the .moment she,resuniqi her part,
she instantaneously_ regained all)ier.poiver .over the
atreetions,: and, perhaps, Was successful ir..
drawing tears from her- auditory' than any ri"etfortner,
male ot, female, of her day, Mrs. BARRY wanted
the 'grace
.and "dignity of Mrs. YATEs, who was the
only Aaress.of that time that: could- be placed in anY
competitioniwith her ; but,
.in the expression of
tenderness and.,a-gonizing 'grief, Mrs. BARRY was
greatly superior. •
The excellence of Mrs. BARRY in Comedy, was
not less pOwerful. ,Nothing could be more ani,
mated, •easy, gay,. and, we- may indeed say,
-gam, than her Rosalind, Her voice in singing
'was charming, and her manner .of giving the
oo Sang in that dharaaer, was the most
,;p:-.;I:tly, engaging pert-or-mance of the kind ever
known. ..She was admirable in Mrs. Sullen, and
Completely sustained the spirit, gaiety, „point, ten-
derneis, and luxuriancy of the part,. '
The charafter of Lady Randolph was supposed to
be 4er. chef digzezircin:fragedy, but her liebvidera,
and, perhaps; her Alicia, had a more powerful.-
hold upon-the heart. In the part of Alicia, in-
deed, all that CRu.tctitt,t, says of the excellence of
CuI.BER. in that part, was strictly
,applicable
to Mrs. BARRY• 7

The fare Of Mrs. RA R R holds forth a striking ,
lesson to
.the female world. :At a time of life when
u• the hey-dry in the blOod";.,ought to,bc tame, and'
wait ut-0 the judgment," she- vas caught by the
persoe of M:. CRRAwrOaD, an Irish Barrister, who
was ) oung enough to be her sOn,r:tind who, after
breaking her spirit, in a -few years fell a viCiiin to
dissipation, but -not before, her talents had sunk un-
der the influence of dejzdion,.and the force of Time.
The theatrical 'World also may derive an useful
lesson from her: conduct. If her proud • consci-
ousness of her own merit had not betrayed her
into caprice and, arrogance' towards the Managers;
she might have maintained her-ground in•the opi-
nion'of the Public for -many years, and though it
was impossible for her finally to prevent the intro-
duftion of Mrs. St D00i43, on ..the London boards,
the.ungovernable. temper of Mrs. CRAWFORD cer-
tainly hastened the appearance of those talents which
-burst with meridian lustre on the metropolis, "and
which, by the united force.of genius and novelty,
. contributed. to throw. her into shades, from which,
at her:time of life, she vainly attempted 'to emerge.
• ;Driven by this. powerful.rival from'the INiletropo-
lis, 'she, occasionally 'performed at Provincial Thea-
tres, burher'Sunhad fallen below .‘the horizon, and
only a few parting rays gave faint traces of her
former Splendotir,
,Mrs. CRAWFORD a few years ago .madeher ap.
• pearance in Covent Garden Theatre, and thoSe who
had formerly admired her, endeavoured to persuade
themselves that she retained a great portion of her
original merit, while they who had not been- -wit-
nesses of that merit, derided the praises her friends
were anxious to bestow, and treated her fame as
-the effeet of ignorance .-and bigotry: Indeed the
sentiment that arose in the minds of those who
knew her in. better days was rather a melancholy
Sympathy in the decays of Nature, than in the dis.:
tresses of Fiaion.
he was an affecting example of whatis said by
our great moral Satirist,

Wisdom's triumph is we/Lihnid,ristyat,
"As hard a science -to the Fair asftl reat.i'

A few days since was foughtlin Islinitnn -fields
a most desperate battle between Charles Lovemore
and -anotker of the name of Allen, both:labdurers" in
the East India Bengal warehouse.. The-battle lasted
about hour.and twenty minute's, for half a guinea a
side. Lovemore is about six feet high, and •well
"proportioned, and Allen but -five 'feet four inches
high, and slender made, \but he displayed' great
agility and skill, by which he beat his opponent.

COURT OF KING's BENCH, DEF.

LOttn'Kustirort came into Cotirt at the usual.
hour of nine o'clock, but, owing to some tiriaccount--
able temissness; none of, -the parties whose Causes.
stood in the List, appeated to be rea.ly, except the
Gentlemen at the par,,- among whom it has been;
,some time, agreed to say nothing by way of •apti.
logy, for the Want of readiness in their ClientS,
leaving the Causes to be disposed of by his Ltir&
/ship, and arranged as he shaild)e pleased to dirett.-
Some, however, mentione4etters which they had
received from their Client. 4, stating. that the panic',
had agreed, among themselvet, that their, Causes
shouid stand late in the Taper, but which Lord.
KENyON observed, :_to

excuses;, for that such an agreement could not take
effea without making him a party, for it was his
'duty to decide hOw Causes wear arranged in the •
Adniinistration of Justice, aftet*ey-'were set down
for Trial. .

Upon this, several Records were withdrawn,
others were struck out,. so that twenty Cauv's were
'disposed of without Trial, none of the parties being
ready, except a few Defendants who had delivered
Briefs. to Counsel, .and -one Cause was brought on•
that. was undefendedupon which the following.'
observations, which we recommend to the attentive
perusal of our Readers, were delivered •by
Lord KENYON--(6 It is most 'grievous to the

His Lordship then withdrew, and the Court broke
up.

COURT OF CONLIN/ON PLEAS, DEC 3.

SITTINGS ,AFTER TERM.

PAYLER against SIR T. W. DUNLOP, BART.
Mr. Serjeani 13-EST stated, that this was an Adion
to recover back from the Defendant, _Sir-Thomas
Wallace Dual6p, Sart. the surn.of 4.001. under the
following circumstances :
Sir Thomas Wallace Dunlop 'has received a Let-
ter of Service froin
,Mr. Windham, late Seere;ary
at War, authorisini him to raise.a..Rigiment of
Fencibles. Sir Thomas was. to have the ;appoint-
ment of the Officers.; Lmt it' was expressly declared,
by the Letter of Service, that he should receive no
pecuniary eompensation, either directly or indirea;
ly,-.for any Commission in the-saikßegiment,..ex-
cept one. 'This. exception was thus applied=that- •
an
meet
of the Line, appointed in the said 4egi-
mem to a rank a step higher than that.he.held in the '
Line, should, upon the recommendation of Sir Tho-
mas, receive permanent rank and pay in:the Army'
equal to'that he'held in this neWly7raisedßegiment.
For- the Commission of Officer, and that alone,
was Sir Thomas entitled to receive any pecuniary
compensatio'n. ,No other Officer of this Fencible'.
Regiment was-to be entitled to any permanent rank
Or pay, *nor to • half-pay after the Regiment- Should
be disbanded. Nevertheless, Sir Thomas Wallace
Dunlop, fully aware. of this, and in defiance' ()fax
=press provisions and restriaiens of the Letter of
Service,. had received from Mr..Pityler, .the
tiff, the sum of 4'601. for the .M:l3ority. of the Regi_
merit, assuring him that he would:become entitled,
in consequence, to permanent rank in the Army, and
to half-pay in the event of the Regiment 'being dis-
banded. The Regiment had since. been disbanded,
and the Plaintiff had not received any one of those
advantages which had been promised by the Defend-
ant,• and for which the former had paid a valuable
consideration, 'relying 'upon the assurances of the.
Defendant that those advantages would ensue.—
This Adion was therefore brought to recover that
surri of 4.901.. which_thePeftpdant liad thus obtained -
from .the Plaintiff, for ti,-"performance. of a certain
contrad, no part .of Whieh' was.' afterwards' per 7
formed. . .

Mr. liovrt.t. proceeded to examine evidence on
the part of the Plaintiff. 2
Mr. Alexander Mackay, a Clerk in the War-
Office, produced a hook containing Letters of Ser-
vice, and proved the Letter of Service relating to
this calk.

Mr. William Payler, the father of the
produced and proved a receipt from the Defendant

to hilusell for 4.0,-1, paid by him to .the xrclehdah-,,
on- account of his soni- the -Plaintiff._ -.4k 5W9 e
that thi, money ‘Vas paid•by hitnsell: to the
znt for the step in Priurio-tion, of ajnr, in the De-
fendant's Fencible Regiment, conierrcd on .the
Thaintitt ‘itho, at the time of his proniotion, pas,:
sessed the rmik of Captain in the same Regiment,
to obtain which he had raised a Company. yhat at
thtinit of this trarisadion, the ii.):end.int gave the
strongest assurances tc; the iff that the .Regi-
mem was going to India, and that it woald he
piaCed uion a pernianen't .establisluirot. That,upon
the faith'of these assurances, , the money,y,tit's paid to
the Defendant. That the- Regiment: liad been r r
urn broke and di,bandeci,- thut
'z't present en' yea I •e- 11 nor

kite Plaintiff's Case here dosed. _

Mr. Serje'ant COCK E on the part Of the
feadant, tools an objeaion to the form of th'.!
contending that it ought to have—been a special
44i0n,0n thecase, for the deceit, instead of b:ing
brought for money had and received.
Mr. Serjeant O.NsLOw, on the same side, sup-
ported this obje&ion. .
Mr. Serjeant BEST contended thlt, the Defendant
having undertaken, inconsideration of this Sum 4
money, to perfortn a certain contr4a, no part of
which he had pe,rfortned; that therefore an AClion
Would lie for money had and received.

Lord.ALvAi4Ley said, •if thecontraa had been
in Part performed, -the ot)jedtiOn 4pitde by the De.:
tendant's Counsel might have -apicli2-1, but in this
"case the contfaa'not having been in any part per-
formed, the present'Aaion would tiertainly lie, and
it was indeed in favour of the Defendant, as the
conld'only recover the specific sun r.tid.
Mr. Serjeant Coe-KELL then contended, 11.1 t the
iDdenda.nt had not exceeded the power which Wa3
given, him of.sc.llingone step in promotion, .and that
the Plaintiff was well aware, at the time the mo-
ney, was paid, for the recovery of which this Ae-
tipn.was brought; that he would not receive either
permanent rank: or pay.
Mr.. Serjeant ONsLow.....proceeded. to examine
Evidence on the part- of the Deten&tat.

Lieut.-Col. Campßell swore that_he had been
pointed by- theDeftindarit Lieutenant-Colon:el of the
Regiment. That. the.Lieuten,!nt Cbloneley' of the
Regiment .Was itaßted at' zo.)?,,,tineas'. tie

Mr.. John Urwhgrt, ler '• 1:•'; of the,

the,Plaintiff, . the inoncy :•-s to 'urned if the
latter was nOt,.gatt-:.-.(1, but 10: v:3S gai.ettcd

Mr. Duncan Nlaedotigal, forii-tcrly also an OlTlcer
in the Regiment, swore, that he .heard the'Eaintiff
say he was •on-ly..tfi have temporary; rank, and
chat. he. never heard -him exp ess any hope of going
to India.

Mr. Urquhart .being examined, again, likewise
swore Lard the Piannj,ff, sity he was only to have
temporary rank that the Regiment wasrai,:cd to
serve in any part of Ear Ope; and thattlicOffieets
could not obtain permanent rank by the Regiment's'
going to
Mr. Serjeant in.a•most able and animated
reply, contended that evenif the; evidence for the
Plaintiff as to the particular undertaking of-the
Defendant, with -respell to " the regimunt standing
arid being gazetted, shOuld be put oat of the.ques-•
tioni still upon the• Letter of Service, the Plaintiff
was entitled ro a.Verdita., He reprobated the con_
duet of Sir Thomas-Wallace Dunlop, as not only
fraudulent, with respect to the individual, the
Plaintiff in this •Canse,. but also witirresped to the

,vas clearly of opinion, that
the Plaintiff in this cause was entitled to recover
upon two grounds, and if the jury. Concurred with
