THE THEATRES.

•
DRURY-LANE.-Mr. KEAN repeated his perr°:;
malice of Richard the Third last night at tgl
Theatre, with his usual success, and before a veil
numerous audience: The only change in the re;
presentation was the appearance of POPE in tb
character of King Henry,.WROUGHTON hayill re'
signed it from indisposition, and Powig,t, fr°l4
diffidence. Pon supported it respectably. • t
very proper alteration took place in the VI
Scene, whore the Ghbsts, instead of tising throiGl
trap-doors, appeared through a I:ind Of superure
tural light at the back of the Tyrant's couch. ilL'
effect was striking, and was touch more Wive;
'tient; for, in the former way, the actor ‘slt
obliged to toss about till the tr-9-doors weTe
e
drawn up, and he could securely run along t%
stage in the horrors occasioned by. his dream. T`l'
change was much applauded.

CORNWALL GEOLOGICAL SOCIETY.

At a period when the science of Geology is ad-
vancing with-unexampled rapidity, and unfolding
the 'system of the Earth's mighty structure, as
well as enlightening us on'the subject of its won-
derfnl:revolutions in past and forgotten ages, it
is- with pleasure we notice the establishment of a
Society under the above name,in the interesting
district of Cornwall. No part of Great Briiain
offers a finer field to the researches of the learned ;
and we will be bold to iwedict, that inquiriet fol-
'lowed up with diligence and intelligence-. in
.this
quarter, must greatly augment the knowledge of
the disciples of-\VERNER, and produce results of
'an .universal and most important nature. The
first Anniversary Meeting of the Society was
held at Penzance, on Tuesday, Sept. 20th, Lord
'DE DUNSTANVILLE (Patron) in the Chair, and
an excellent paper.was read by the Secretary, Dr.
nous, upon the recent formation of the Sand-
stone, which prevails on the Northern Coasts of
the Comity.—Mr. DAVIES GIDDY, Sir C. HAW-
KINS, C.: LEMON, E. W. STACKHOUSE, J. WIL-
LIAMS, jnn. and about 80 members, were present
on this occasion ; when Lord DE DUNSTANVILLE
held Out an expectation, that the PRINCE REGENT
might probably be induced to become the patron
of so truly national and honourable an institution.

. .
On _Monday was holden, at the Thatched House
Tavern, a Quarterly •Meeting • of the Naval ,Cha-
ritable •:.Society-present, Admiral Lord Rao-
STOCK., President, in the Chair ; Admiral' sir
JOHN COLPOYS, Admiral GUYOT, Lieutenant-Go-
vernor BaoWELL,. Sic. Twenty-five cases were
presented; one only rejected.. ylt will be highly
•-iratifyino.Z, to the friend* of this excellent Charity
to learn, that it has now to boast the proud name
WELLINGTON," as one of its noblest supporters,
It is much to be lamented that the Army has no
such admirable institution'to boast, as • tong ex-
perience has sufficiently proved ita happy effects
respecting the Navy.

UNION•IIALL.

Yesterday' Dates and Smith Were examined, on
a charge of stealing 31 geese, the property of
some persons, unknown. The officers apprehend-
ed one of the prisoners in the neighbourhood of
Egham, in a cart, with a -loaded gun, and the
.geese, and suspecting them to be stOien, made
enquiries, and
,ascertained that these two tnen
were in the practice of attending fairs. They ac-
cordingly repaired to Croydon Fair, and, from in-
formation they received, took,the other prisaner
into custody.—They were remanded.

Early on Sunday morning last, the house of
Mr. STEEL, baker, •Drury-lane, was broke into.,
and robbed of cash:. and wearing apparel to-a con-
siderable amount. The thieves had scaled two
walls, from Marquis-Court, which leads into Rus-
sell-court, before they 'reached the back part of
the house, and went in by the bake-house, from
whenCer they proceeded through a small trap-door
(which,a stranger could scarcely discover) and got
into the shop, and thence into the parlour, which
rile:, ransacked. They afterwards escaped, un-
heard, by the street door, Which they left open..

MANSION-HOUSE,

A man 'of-genteel appearance, between 30 and
40 years of age, and formerly a Captain in the
Eat London Militia, was further examined yes-
terday, on a charge of receiving various sums of
money under false pretences.
The prisoner was employed as to :AC attor;-
ney of Lyon's-inn, which furnished him with a
pretence of going among his clients, and using
the name of his 'principal,. for the purpose of re-
ceiving their written authority to recover debts,
and settling actions in their behalf, without the
knowledge or authority of his ellip)OrCr.
The Lott]) MAYOR said, he should' commit.him
upon the principal charge, viz. receiving a consi-
derable sum of money from a Mr. Brooks, of
Park-street, Mary-le-bane, as money due to a Mr.
Brown, of Peckham, of whom he obtained written
authority to receive the same, under pretence that
his master had sent him for that purpose. •
It appeared that prior to this transaction, pri-
soner had been discharged front his, employer's.
service. The prisoner observed that the receipt
of this money was in Middlesex; consequently.
the offence' was not within his jurisdiction. lie
was ordered to be taken to Marlborough-street.
He then -begged that a letter, which. had been
handed to his Lordship, containing the authority
of Mr. Brown, might he returned, as'material to
his defence. Search was then made, hut 110 such
letter could 1)( found ; this difficulty was, how-
ever, obviated by Mr. Brown agreeing to aduiit
the fact. Sent to iNiktilhorough-street.

GLJILDI-lALL.

- Richard Shi .was,charged by,Thos. Good-
fellow, an officer, on suspicion of felony. Pro-
secutor stated, that on Monday evening• he met
prisoner in Fleet-market, with, a large bag on his
shouldet, containing a .small cask. On asking
hint how he Caine by it, prisoner said he' received
it from a r.:rson vhoin he did not know, but who
Lad given hint 2s. to take it to- the White Horse
Prbsecutor then examined the bag, and
fon.nd it contained a keg of spirits, and prisoner
ha%ing no permit, b took hint (tithe Compter.
Prisoner said that he was porter to a house in
Milk-street, and that one of his masters was pre-
sent to speak to his character.
Mr. Scott- said the prisoner had long .been
their servant, and they had every reason to be.sa-
tisfiad with his conduct.

Being asked how a man settled in a house of
respeetahility could take such a job ? Mr. Scott:
said, he could` Only account for it, from knowing
him to be a saving man, and fond of money.
The keg-was then examined, And was found to
contain foreign brandy, which was sent to the
Excise-oflice, and prisoner was ordered to be
discharged.
Before he was discharged, however, the turn-
key of the Compeer advised Matthews
, to search
as it appcnred prisoner had something con-
cealed under .his clothes. The officer found un-
der his waistcoat a piece of India silk handker-
chiefs, and a 101. and 51: Bonk of England note.

The Aide'-.Man desired Matthews to fake tire
piece of silk to Mr. Scott, to know it it belonged
to hits and his partners. , On his return he told
the Court that Mr. Scott said it was not the:pro-
perty of himself or partners, they not dealing in
any such articles. He had since been to pti-
soner's lodgings, and he found• under his bed se-
veral more pieces of silk handkerchiefs. Prisoner
was renianded.

CADIZ, SEPT. 13.

" Although still without any communication
either from the British Ambassador Or Consul
.General at Madrid, on the subject of the late ap-
plications rnade front hence to the Spanish Govern-
-ment, for a renewal "of the pentission to export
British cotton goods to South America, we are'
now in possession here of a 'copy of a Royal De-
cree just published in Madrid, "prohibiting: entirely
and absolutelit the' importation, even into this
country, of ail kindi of foreign cotton manufac-
tmes, and alhiwing only the period of four
montbs-: from the 29th ult. for the sale and
consumption-A* the immense stock at present
.an hand, the greater part of, which has already
paid the ordinary heavy duties, not a penny
of which will he returned on re-exportation.
This occurrence, as you may readily conceive,
has struck us all with astonishment, the more
especially as .no communication on the sub-
ject has yet been made, either by the Ambassador
or Consul-General, for the information and go-
vernment of the British Merchants here. This
hitter circumstance, however, in' not manner af-
fects our thorough belief in the authenticity of
the decree, which will be attended with serious
evil consequences to our trade with. this country,
which- already, on almost every other point, la-
bones under disadvantages, but ill according with
that system of 'liberality which the services of the
British natiqn imperiously demand, and should
have had conceded to.it by-this Goveriment.!'

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

QUEEN-SQUARE.
STEALING' WET LlNEN:—Yesterday. Thomas
Bentley and David Roberts, two very young men
,and reputed thieves, were charged with haying
robbed Mr. Arundel, of Stafford-place,
of wet .linen, by getting into the yard where it
was hung out to dry. Bentley being perceived,
he was pursued so closely, that although he threw
the linen down an area, he was unable to escape.
Nothing but suspicion, from companionship, at-
taching to Roberts, he was discharged. The Ma-
gistrates regretted that a young man of good
education, and to whom a considerable situ) of
money had recently been lest, should give hiniself

DREADFUL OCCURRENCE

Extract of a letter from Manchester, dated
sth Dec. 1824 :—" A scene of almost unexam-
pled horror occurred last night, at one of our
Methodist Chapels. Some villains, for the pm.-
, pose of plunder, gave the alarm of tire. The
Chapel was very full—the effect was instanta-
nerms— all rushed for the doors, and in the con-.
flict, three persons were trod to death, and about
thirty dreadtnlly.hurt. Some of the perpetrators
of this calamitous affair were taken into custody."
ANOTHER ACdOLINT.---Oti Sunday evening last,
an immense congregation was assembled in the
Methodist Chapel, in Oldham-street, Manchester,
to hear the sermon about to be delivered in coin-
menioration of the late Dr. COKE, ~1 ho a short
time since died on his passage to India, for the
purpose of propagating the Gospel. While the
assemblage was awaiting the commencement of

" The tract in which the celebrated Cooke moved, is highly
interesting to our feelings. Forty years have nearly elapscd
since that distingnislred Navigator first explored the Islands
in the South Seas, and, after such 'a length of ti;ne, we may
naturally expect important Changes in the condition of the
inhabitants. This circumstance therefore,' *amongst many
others, ;mikes the Voyage before us very attractive. It
brings us minute tidings of people whom we had visited with
Captain Cooke, and subsequently with King and Vancouvre;
htid it narrates very particularly their present condition,
which Mr. Turnbull is enabled to detail, by the lenthetted
stay which he made amongst them."—Monthly Review.

THEATRICAL ROW :1.1

We have, already noticed in THE SUN the .riots
which 'took plate in the Dublin Theatre on Friday
night. S far frOni having re-urinated, these dis.-
graceful :sgenos have been renewed, As appears
from the following:--, •
" 'THEATRE-ROYAL.—On Saturday evening, a
partial • ai tenipt was niad`e" to impede the perform-
ance at.the Theatre, but as there were onlyA few
persons- in the House, it was not successful.
'`‘ Last night, we regret to say, the tumult was
more serious.- Tlie pliy Was Richard 'the Third,
in which Mr_litintlyperformed Richard. There
was considerable interruption during the Play;
but the'mot violent proceedings begun After the
falling of the eurtain;the call for the Manager was
universal, the audience being impressed with the
opinion that Jones showld „give such an ex-
planation in person as would satisfy them for the
•
disappointment on Friday evening. Mr. Jones,
however, dill not 'appear:- • Me. Rock, the Stage
Manager,. appeared as his substitute, but would
not be listened to. .

`.` The peformance of the After-piece was en 7
tirely put a stop to. The .seats were "thrn 'from
the side boNes,and thrown in upon the foot-lights
Many of the lamps were exting&shed awl brokeu;.
,s.ome of the chandeliers were broken. The stage
was covered with the lumber thrown upon it front
the boNes. Some Jarge, pieces' of wood were
thrown into the orchestra. It was with difficulty
the musicians escaped unhurt. The Sheriffs at
thiS time came 'forward and asked if Mr. Rock
would be heard. There was a general cry for
him to come forward—he appeared, attended on
the stage by both Sheriffs ; but the uproar was so
-great., that after several fruitless attempts to ob-
tain a hearing, they were obliged to retire=-n6-
thing would, do but Mr. Jones.

‘!-The audience appeared, the more irritated at
Mr. Jones's dedining td come forivard, as it was
known that he was in the House—he having as-
sisted shortly before to take some persons into
custody, who were charged with attempting to
,ereate disturbance.

" The tumult-at thisperiod assumed an appear.
ance so forMidable.that the Sherita found it abso-
Intely, necessary -to cleat the. Rouse—in doing
, .o,es-cannot too much.applaud the forbear-
,ance and good temper they .diTlayed. By their
good manageMent the House was, at length clear-
ed, withoutfurthermischiel., It-was with much
reluctance some of the Geniletnen would quit the
boxes without. getting' back •their money-....a de-
mand which we thought .1% little unreasonable;
seeing that the performers were all very willing to
go on with the entertaintneili. if-.they-were per.
mitted to do so."

STATE OF ANTWERP.

Haoun, JAN. 1.9.---By a person- who, notwith-
standing the strict measures of the Police, has es-
caped from Antwerp, we have received the follow;
ing particulars respecting 'the state (~f that town
to the- pith :—Antwerp, which has been consi-
dered-by.i..nonaparte, ever since he got pcv-seision
of Belgium, as. the most convenient` place for-fit-
ting cut a fleet, and which, in conjunction with
those of the United Netherlands, might consider-
ably annoy the. English, of which he the more
flattered himself, as the situation of all those liar-
boHrs is more northerly than those of England,
might have afforded him in time the means ofsharing
with that country in its trade in the Northern and.
EasteruSeas, or at least of compelling them to main-
tain such a number of fleets as_ Would be able. to
prevent the French ships from pUtting to ea.—
Antwerp, therefore, was by Buonaparte, with a
sacrifice of the other places, and at the expense of
all the adjoining inland towns, .in the month of
December, very lunch augmented in strength ;
even its fleet he caused 'to .be dismantled, to the
number of one-and-twenty ships of the line lying
in the harbour, and five ships in dock, of which
two three-deckers and two frigates were ready for
sea. Two of the oldest men of war are fast moor-
ed in the Scheidt, for the purpose of serving as
floating batteries. The fortications are in a
good state, and the present garrison consists of
about fifteen thousand men. It is composed chiefly
of young. inexperienced conscripts, of which the
gfeater part- having been compelled to enter the
like a gallnani.jdleft;nce.: the
garrison consists of the crews of the dismantled
ships, and among them are found all descrip-
tions of 'mime!), and many of them belonging
to those countries which have already thrown
off the French yoke, which may Of course, be
considered as no longer bielonging to France'..
The loss of the French in the actions of the
120 and 15th against the allied froops,, is consi
dered here to be about 3000, and three pieces of
cannon.
