the case of a M. DUCEEnE who was sent to Bel.
law by his friends for evinciug an insane passion
for an actress of the Feydeau. The object of his
love was 'M,:dernoiselle Mont, now Madame
Ptt tnnEn. M.- DuCLERE besieged her door, fol-
lowed her to the theatre, and placed himself full
in her view during the pli4. He thus compelled
the actress to give him. an audietto, in tt hich

ruisplaged, and.:that, hitc-,- -heart 'weiriertgagitrt.—
So far from being cured by this annotuncement,
his passion was •ottly, estaltek by it.. From
silent contemplation or- her .charms, he pro-

proceeding, and demanded, if every man in love
was a tit subject .for Bedlam? From being the

for her a young madman, who sung the couplets
of the Chaperon Rouge in which she acted. A

The trade of Leith is at present greater than
it was ever known to be, if the amount of duties received at the
Customhouse may be held as a criterion. The receipt of duties
one day last week amounted to upwards of 40001., and during

DEsPERATE ATTEMPT AT SUlcnE.—=This morn-
ing about four o'clock, a young Lady, not more
than 20-years of age, elegantly attired in white,
with a crimson -silk pelisse, Leghorn bonnet,
white silk stockings, and white kid shoes, pro-
ceeded down the stairs of Waterloo-bridge, on
the Strand side, and threw herself into the River,
but it being low water she stuck in the mud,
from which situation she was rescued by a wa-
terman named KEMP, who happened to be
cleaning his boat at' the time, but no sooner
had she been taken out, than she made an at-
tempt to mount the balustrades of the bridge, in
which site was also foiled, through the interfe-
rence of Kemp, and she was at)ength given to
the watchman, who carried her to the watch-
house, where, in about an hour after, she was
claimvd by her Mewls, who live in the neigh-
bourhood, and are highly respectable. We could
not learn the reason the unhappy girl had for the
rash attempt.
