COVENT-GARDEN THEATRE.—Last night
this house encountered the very unusual catastrophe, under its
remarked that
leave to have
present management, of having one of its novelties damned, and
deservedly. The peccant piece was a farce called The Baro-
thaellsethweerheearveinthneaewtss of the old
vet ; or, Female Society. We need not trouble our readers
with the detail of a plot which was worked out with an elabo.
rate but most infelicitously witless ingenuity. The house gave
e,d,,thaenfdarAthler.r
some unequivocal tokens of its disrelish for this production
during the performance of its first act. The

Low TIDES.—For these two weeks past the
tides have been so extremely low, that several vessels of the
largest tonnage have found a difficulty in getting down the
river after loading at the Broomielaw. They have never been
lower in the memory of man. The long continued drought, and
the prevalence of easterly winds, have been the cause of the
extremely low tides.—Glasgoto Chronicle.
