THE THEATRES.

DRURY•LANE.—The Winter's Tale, which,
however improbable in its fable, is recommended
by the powerful charm of SIIAICSiAIteS command-
ing Muse, was revived at this Theatre last night,
and was attendtoll by a very numerovc audience•
Mr. MACRE/MY was the Leontes. His perform-
ance partook of his usual faults and merits, and
he was chielly successful in the last scene, when
his injured wife is restored to him. Mrs. Burls
was a very graceful and impressive Hermione.
She bids fair to become one of the essential
props of the London Stage. The humour
of Autolicus was well supported by MIN.'
DEN, who exhibited the various assumptions
of the pert with distinctness and ludicrous
effect. WALLACH'S Florizel found an interesting
counter-part in Mrs. W. WEST'S Perdiill. HAR..
LEY, who is never out of his element in comic
parts, nave diverting simplicity to the Young
Shephernd. The play was brought forward with
great splendour, and an incidental ballet emi-
nently contributed to relieve the serious passages,
and deservedly excited much applause.—lndeed
none of the Performers had reason to complain
of neglect.
COVENT-GARDEN.---WP hare nothing to add
to our former report of Macbeth, of which Mr.
YOUNG was again the hero last night, and again
acquitted himself with his usual energy and effect.
The Afterpiece was The Blind IJoy, in which Mrs.
CHATTERLEY displayed grea t feeling and skill, and
the whole of which was well received. We should
deem ourselves defective in common humanity it
we did not again recommen,d to public sympathy
Mr. DAYY, the Composer of the excellent cha-
racteristic music which accompanies this Piece.
He is now in the decline of life, worn down by
infirmity, and wholly unable to exert his talents
for subsistence, either in composition or perform-
ance. We have several times endeavoured to
draw public attention to this unfortunate gentle-
man, and other Journals have liberally followed
our example, but hitherto little if any relief has
been extended, and he is daily sinking more and
more into dejection, infirmity, and despair.

POETR, Y.

NOVEMBER.
'Tis night; the loud wind through the forest wakes,
With sound like ocean's roaring, wild and deep,
And in yon gloomy pines, strange, music makes,
Like symphonies unearthly, heard in sleep ;
The sobbing waters dash their waves, and weep ;
Where moans the blest its dreary path along,
The bending firs a mournful cadence keep ;
And mountain rocks re-echo to the song,
As fitful raves the storm the hills and woods among.

GENERAL LALLEMAND.— The New York
Papers mention the death of General HENRI
LALLEMAND, and one of the London Papers has
imagined that this is the one who projected the
Camp d'Asile at Texas. This isa mistake. The two
Lallemands(brathers) both held the rank of Major
General underßuonaparte. Henri, tier deceased,
was Gene:al of Artillery, and is_well known by
his work on that branch of war which was fa-
vourably received in France, and has been lately
adopted by the American Government as the;r
standard, and is used in o'4, United States Mili-
tary School at West Print. Henry Lallemand
married the niece of Girard, the rich banker of
Philadelphia. He remained very quiet in America,
his almost only absence from home having been
on a land speculation in Florida, immediately
on its cession by Spain. Henri was long in a
bad state of health, and was known to be, in
the spring of this year, almost on the verge of
the grave. He was much attached to and in the
society of Joseph Buouaparte, the ci•devant
tenant of the Spanish Throne, %1.. ho with his dangh7
ter, lives in an elegant style in Philadelphia,
under the name of the Comte de Survilliers.—
It was the brother of Henri, Charles Francis
lemand, who projected the refuge at the Camp
d'Asile for the French military. He was a GO.
neral of Cavalry in Buonaparte's Garde. It is
believed he is now in South America.

OLD PAWL—It was the privilege of OLn
PARK to escape six times •the infection of the
plague. He was born before printing came to
be in vogue, and had lived eighty years before
guns were fabricated in England. He witnessed
the first importation of busks, masks, muffs, fans,
and periwigs, for female use, all derived from
Italy, but by the English borrowed from their
French neighbours. Although deprived of his
sight, he retained his mental faculties, more espe-
cially the shrewdness of his apprehension, of
which a curiout, instance is given by his biogra-
pher. Being desirous to renew the lease of
his house for the third time, for sixty years,
for the benefit of his wife, who was about a cen-
tury younger than himself, he took occasion, when
his landlord was coming to his house, to desire
that a pin might be dropped on his shoe ; and
scarcely had the landlord began to enter into
conversation with him, than the wily old man
exclaimed," Is not that a pin I see there?" By
which artifice he hoped to make the landlord
believe that be had recovered his sight, and con-
sequently was not unreasonable in demanding
the renewal of his lease.

EXTRAORDINARY MATRIMONY. Yesterday
morning the village of Isleworth was a scene of
jocularity, in consequence of Mr. GOODMAN, a
grocer, residing there, aged 78, leading to the
Hymenial altar the widow GREENTREE, aged 76.
It is very extraordinary that the youthful pair are
minus the left eve, but what is most to be la-
mented, the young bridegroom has lost the use of
his left side. After the nuptials, the happy
couple started for Ilatnptou Court to spend the
honeymoon.

The Duke of GLOUCESTER has again honoured
m near Ring-
wood,ll. BARING, Esq. of So erly House.,
with a visit this shooting season; he arrived
there ou Monday last, and, as he passed through
the town, be was saluted by a merry peal on
the bells.
