THE THEATRES.

COVENT GARDEN THEATRE.—We have still to
record, for the honour of public taste and libe-
rality, the continued warm protection which
Miss F. 11. KELLY receives for her animated and
affecting performance of Juliet. The stong im-
pression which her original merit in this interest-
ing character has made upon the public in gene-
ral is visible in the crowded audience which she
attracts every night When she appears. This
'great curiosity, and the applause which attends
her, seem to give new stimulus to her powers,
which she exerts with undiminished ardour.—

In justice to Mr. C. KEMBLE it should be again
observed, that its Romeo he obviously strives to
bring the talents of his scenic Idol into the fairest
point of view, and acts up, as the phrase is, to her
noblest efforts. Indeed seldom has a play alto-
gether been better supported by the whole train
of its performers, or presented to the public with
more appropriate beauty and splendour.

ROYAL COBURG THEATRE.—Two ❑ew pieces
were brought forward last night at this Theatre,
the first entitled, Frederick of Bavaria, of the
serious and impressive kind, and the second, The
Czar of Muscovy, or The Three Ambassadors, of a
ludicrous and diverting nature. HuNTLEr and Airs.
STANLEY particularly distinguished themselves,
and both pieces were much applauded by a very
numerous audience. The new splendid saloon
was crowded with visitors, and the whole of
the entertainments were received with the most
encouraging success.

FIRE IN IlinnoaN.—lt must be consoling to
the friends of science, particularly of Architec-
ture, to learn, that although much of the valu-
able stock which belonged to Air. TAYLOR has
been destroyed with the Architectural Library,
yet that many estimable copper-plates were de-
posited in an arched vault which was deemed
fire-proof, and. that many of the printed works
were in a detached warehouse.

It is the intention of several landlords of con-
siderable properties in Herefordshire to hold a
meeting at the Hotel in Hereford, at which they
earnestly invite the attendance of other landlords,
upon Saturday, the 30th instant, to take into con-
sideration the expediency of sending a Requi-
sition to the High Sheriff, to call a county meet-
ing, for the purpose of representing to both
Houses of Parliament the unparalleled and daily
increasing distress of the agricultural interest,
and of imploring that relief which it is in their
power to afford them.—(Hereford Journal.)
MURDER.—On the night of Sunday the 17th
inst., a wanton and barbarous murder was com-
mitted on the lands of Mount Catherine, between
Rathcormuck and Watergrass-hill, under the
following circumstances :—The lands of Mount
Catherine had been distrained for rent, and on
Sunday night a number of persons attacked the
house of one Jeremiah Cullinane on said lands,
where the keepers were ; the ruffians broke
open the door, and were most unmercifully beat-
ing the keepers, when the wife of Cullinane, re-
monstrating with these savages, and incautiously
calling on them by name, they turned their
vengeance towards the unhappy woman her-
self, and murdered her. On hearing of the
above outrage, that active and excellent Ma-
gistrate, W. Ryder, Esq., repaired to the spot,
and we are happy to announce, was so fortunate
as to secure two of the ringleaders of the mur-
derous gang, who are fully identified ; and we
have little doubt but that, from the zeal and in-

telligence of the above Gentleman, many more
will be brought to justice.—(Cork Mercantile
Chronicle, Nov. 22.)
BURGL:IRY•--Yesterday all the avenues to the
Police-Office, Queen-square, were thronged with
crowds of the most notorious thieves and other
bad characters now at large, to see Mark Herd,
TVilliam Watts, Joseph Faller, Thomas Brown,
and Charlotte Bamjield, the particulars of whose
examination, on a charge of burglariously rob-
bing in the dwelling-house of M. De Reimer,
in Euston-place, appeared in our Paper of
Thursday last.—They were brought up again
in the expectation that evidence would be
forthcoming to substantiate other charges against
them ; but nothing of that nature appearing, they
were ordered to be conveyed to Newgate for
trial on the charge before-mentioned. The as-
semblage of desperate fellows between Tothill-
fields Prison and Ule Office, with the known de-
terminated ferocity of the prisoners, rendering it
not improbable that an an attempt at a rescue
might be made, the whole force of the constables
and peace officers belonging this office, and sta-
tioned in the neighbourhood, attended for the
purpose of escorting them to and from the Office,
which was effected in perfect security without
the slightest offer or spew of resistance.
