lAN UNREHEARSED SCENE IN THE BRIGHTON
THEATRE,
A curious scene occurred in this theatre on Wednes
day evening during the performance of the comedy of
" Still Waters Run Deep," in which Mr. G. Vining, as
Captain Hawkesley, animadverted in an unmistakeable
manner upon the conduct of the editor of the Guardian
in reference to the criticism which appeared in that paper
i. of that day. In the course 3f the performance he re-
marked, "Swindler as I am, adventurer, ruffian—l
- might be something worse—l might even sink so low as
to become the editor of the Guardian—that butcher, who •
makes his paper a dramatic slaughter-house ; and such
a critic, before going to a theatre, should swallow half a
box of antibilious pills." At the conclusion, when being
led off the stage handcuffed, he observed, " I'm going
2 across the herring-pond ; if justice were done the editor
1 of the Guardian he would have to accompany me."
After the piece was over, Mr. Vining, beingloudly called
for before the curtain, explained to the audience that the
editor of the journal in question had for many years been.
in the constant habit of abusing the theatre, and every
' one connected with it. That a paragraph bad appeared
that day, " cutting him up" in Capt. Hawkesley, a part
which be had the honour of performing before her Ma-
jesty, and for upwards of 150 nights in the metropolis,
B with the highest encomiums from the press, and some
of the most distinguished literary men oft he day. He
- concluded his address by entreating the audience not to
put any faith in what appeared in the columns of the,
Guardian, for that it was invariably false —that the
s editor of that journal had been burnt in effigy upon the
stage on which he stood—that he had been publicly
horsewhipped in the streets for abusing an actor in a
part which he never performed—and this be urged, not
for his own sake (for having passed the ordeal of a Lon.
don audience, the editor of the Guardian could not pens
, sibly injure him), but for the sake of his brothers and
sisters in the profession who could not, for local reasons,
- defend themselves from his unmanly attacks. The ad•
dress, which created much amusement, was received
with vehement applause.

IViIIRDER IN NORTIIIIMBERLAND.—On Friday Mich .1
Cawthorn, a pedlar belonging to Warden, was removed
to Morpeth Gaol upon a coroner's warrant, charged with
the wilful murder of Mark Cunningham, a mender ,af
chairs, a native of Durham. Those two men, with other 5,
had been drinking in the Sun Inn, Hexharo, on Wedne
day night week, when a quarrel arose about cheating r it
cards, and Cunningham had struck at Cawthorn. Co) r
Hingham had afterwards retired to his lodgings on Ba t-
tle-hill, and had been followed by Cawthorn, who h: id
resumed the quarrel, and in the middle of the alterm.
tion had pulled out a large knife, with which he had
stabbed Cunningham three times in the lower part of
the bowels. The wounds were pronounced by the smv
geons to be deadly, but the poor fellow, being of an ea),
ceedingly strong constitution, was enabled to sustain
life until Tuesday, when inflammation [supervened, and
he expired in great agony,
