the reception, it would appear that his good for-
tune has attended him to the metropolitan boards.
The character was performed throughout with great
care and judgment, and with much spirit and animation.
Mr. Wentworth possesses those natural advantages
which are of so much importance to gentlemen of his
profession—a good figure, a handsome countenance, and
an excellent voice. His articulation is easy and distinct,
and his deportment and bearing elegant and dignified,
without the slightest appearance of affectation. He
is not, however, free from faults ; but they
are such as practice, and, perhaps, a clearer
perception of the character he uidertakes would
soon rectify and amend. He was ably% supported
by Mrs. Stirling in Juliana, and by Mr. Compton in
Jaques, whose dry humour created a good deal of amuse-
ment. At the close of the performance Mr. Wentworth
and Mrs. Stirling were called before the curtain, and
were received with much applause.

To TEACHERS OF LANGUAGES,—.The most rapid
mode of teaching or acquiring a knowledge of languages, is
by means of the system promulgated by Mr. James Hamil-
ton,' which has now stood the test of many years' practice, by
some of the most eminent teachers of the present time, with
the moat astonishing results. Teachers not acquainted with
the system of Mr. Hamilton, may readily acquire a thorough
knowledge of the plan of teaching from a pamphlet, just pub-
lished, price sixpence, entitled " The History, Principles,
Practice, and Results of the Hamiltonian System," which
may be had of C. H. Law, 131, Fleet-street, London, where
all Mr. Hamilton's books can be procured; also a list of the
works gratis.—The pamphlet will be sent free on receipt of
ten postage stamps.
MORDAUNT HALL.—This new novel, by the author
of " Emilia Wyndham," " Angela,"
&c., not only fully sus-
tains the high reputation of its popular author, but will even
raise it in the estimation of the literary world. Rarely has
an excellent moral purpose been so strikingly developed
through the medium of a tale, aboundirg in dramatic inci-
dent, and filled with a succession of characters so varied in
their attributes, and so truthfully and energetically painted,
that they form a gallery of portraits worthy to rank with
the creations of the greatest masters of modern fiction.
Among the most prominent of these characters are the noble-
minded, but unfortunate hero, Gideon ; his beautiful and
erring mother, Miriam ; and the clever and accomplished,
though profligate and degraded, statesman, the Earl of
Avonmore, his father; the charming (Isristian-souled Ca-
lantha Mordaunt, Gideon's benevolent ald ardent protector;
the proud and sensitive Mr. Chandos ; lis superficial, vain,
and imperious wife; and their sweet and naïve daughter
Kitty. Not to speak of the other subordinate personages of
this clever and exciting story, the lurly, brutal, school-
master, Singletrees, and his gentle usher, Prior, are sketches A
that will remind the reader forcibly Dickens.—Evening
Paper.
HER MAJESTY'S CUSTOMS.--13LYMOUTH, FEB. I.
For many years past deputy warehouse keepers of customs
have been stationed at the various Royal victualling estab-
lishments, into whose :custody have been delivered all cus-
tomable articles for the use of the Dural department ; but as
the Lords of the treasury consider that on the delivery of
such goods from one department cf Government to another
there is no occasion to continue ;he services of such an
officer, their Lordships have ordered the discontinuance of
the deputy warehouse keeper et the Royal William
Victualling-yard, Stonehouse—a measure which no doubt
will be extended to other victuallilg establishments in the
United Kingdom.
PRINCESS'S CONCERT-RDOM,--On Thursday night
Mr. Laurent gave a fourth gran' dress-ball at these rooms.
As the evening progressed, and the attendance of visitors
became more numerous and crowd:d, the ball-room presented
a very animated and lively appearance, a testimony, without
doubt, that repetition had not carried these entertainments to
flag, or become diminished in mularity. The dances were
well-selected and numerous, and apparently enjoyed by the
company with excellent zest.

[ADVERTISEMENT.]—A L.fe Guardsman, one of
the Heroes of Waterloo, Cure( of Rheumatism by Hol-
loway's Ointment and Pills.---Mr. Thomas Branton,
landlord of the Waterloo Tavern, Coathata, Yorkshire,
was afflicted for many montls with rheumatism and
rheumatic gout ; his legs were dreadfully painful and
disfigured with colours of every hue, frightful to behold;
for ten weeks he was wholly amble to walk. The treat-
ment he received from several medical men, not only
failing to do him any good, bit leaving him, in fact, in a
considerably worse condition. At this juncture Hollo-
way's Pills and Ointment weie resorted to, and by their
sole means he has been rested to health and strength.
