BATH THEATII.E.—We consider Mr. PER K INS7S
as a very favourable debut. The chltacter of
Octavian is regarded rather difficult for a debu-
tant,and his footing in the feeling of h's audience
is therefore by much the more creditable : his
person is well proportioned, his voice good, his
intonations natural, and his gesticulation grace-
ful. If we are not deceived by this specimen,
we pronounce his advancement certain : his
faults are, a manner too hurried, and improper
emphasis. Deliberate action, we think More
favourable to tragedy ; end for this, we have
JOHN KEMDLE with us, though MACREADY- acid
KEAN are against us —(Bath Chron., Dec. l 5 )
AWFUL. SUDDEN DEATH.—This morning JAMES
lltyrcnEsoN, Esq., a debtor confined in the Ft.-et
Prison, was found dead in his he'', which was
swimming with blood ; it is therefore supposed
that during the night the unfortunate gentleman
had been seized with a caughing tit and bad rup-
tured a blood vessel, as no wound, or any other
mark of violence, is to he seen ah,iut his body.--
A Coroner's Inquest will be held on his-body
to-morrow morning. _ _

This morning, about four o'clock, a young
woman threw herself from the steps-of Waterloo
Bridge, and was unfortunately. drowned: She

by SOMC men who were going off to a •barge
about TO o'clock ; -she was taken 9p and con-
veyed to the hone-house of the Savoy. She ap-
pears-to be a young woman. and when picked

companied her with the same iatention. Was-pre-
served from the rash act by the gate-keeper on
the iridge, and who for security lodged her in
the watch.hcuce.

INGENIOUS ROBBERY.—This day. a bov, about
15 years of age. named Allen, was brought up to Onion hall
Office by Glannon, charged with having entered the house of
Mr. Park, the sign of the Bell, in the Mint, and having stolen
from thence various articles of wearing apparel. &c. Mrs. Park
stated, that on the 24th November last, her busbaud having
shut up the house at 11 u'cieek, they were at supper, when
hearing a noise, she proceeded up stairs, and found the boxes
open, and the cc n ten ts gone out of a number of them. The robbery
appears more strange, on account of a girl sleeping in the room
at the time. Sarah Innes, niece to the laintlady, stated that
she had been six weeks from the country ; being in bed on the
night in question, she heard the window of the chamber open;
saw two boys enter ; said she was so overpowered with fear
that she could not call for help. One of the boys ran his
hand over her face three times, while the other stood at
the room door, who upon hearing a noise of somersrson
coming up stairs, jumped out of the window, folloWed bY his
compaoion ; witaess knew prisoner's face by the Ilitit'of the
moon, he had been drinking in the tap-room .untirlrb'cloca ;
she saw them put chests and &ache out. or AvirAofr--ReCog..
