GOLD AND SILVER COINAGE.—During the
twenty years preceding 1810, there were coined at the
Mint—of gold, 21,493,6401. 3s. 6d. ; of silver,
1,2161. 15s. 2,1. In the twenty years subsequent to
1810—of gold 45,387,4231. Ss. 4d. ; and of silver,
9,149,411/. 4s. Id.
The Brestois states that it is intended to
substitute iron wire ropes instead of the usual cordage in
the rigeing of the Government ships, and that this change
will effect an annual saving to the amount of between
300,000/. and 400,000/.
On Saturday last, the good citizens of York
were much amused by the progress through the streets of
a sergeant of the Scots Greys, attended by a trumpeter,
both in full uniform, who ever and anon, after a flourish of
the clarion had eared attention, made solemn proclama-
tion, cautioning the tradespeople, &c., not to give credit
to any of the corps above the amount of one day's pay.—
York Courant.

SUDDEN DEATH.—Yesterday (Sunday) a
woman in the house No. 4, Wbitefriar-street, after drink-
ing a tumbler of punch, lay down on a bed which was in
the room, and expired without showing the least symp-
toms of death. There was another woman in the room,
who thought she but slept until her pale and motionless
countenance created ber suspicion, when she ascertained
this awful proof of mortality.—Dublin Evening Mail.
FOREIGN TRADE OF NEWCASTLE.—Mr,
W. .Aasr,raorro has gone to London, as a deputation
from the Chamber of Commerce of this town, to represent
the claims which Newcastle possesses to be admitted as
one (if the outports to trade' with Indil anti China, now
that his MaaEsTv's Government have decided that those
trades shall be thrown open. We are happy to hear that
there is every prospect of the mission being successful. We
know that a determination prevails here to take advantage
of the liberty, if it should he granted to this port, with as
little delay as possible.-- Tyne Mercury.
COVENT-GARDEN THEATRE—An experi-
ment, and not a remarkably successful one, as the emptiness
of the house incontestably proved, was last night essayed
here. The tragedy of Othello was performed, the part
of the Moor by an individual of Negro origin, as his
features sufficiently testify, who calls himself AL,DRIDGE,
and who has been facetiously nick-named " the African
Roscius." Mr. ALDRIDGE'S Othello, with all the advan-
tage of " hic niger est," wanted spirit and feeling. His
accent is unpleasantly, and we would say, vulgarly foreign ;
his manner, generally, drawling and unimpressive; and
when, by chance (for chance it is, and not judgment),
he rises to a higher strain, we perceive in the transition
the elevation of rant, not the fiery dignity of soul-felt
passion. His performance in the third act—that over-
powering act—was weak. 'The" mile!" which is music
in itself when delivered by an actor of even ordinary
vice and judgment, was miserably feeble. A few plaudits
followed it, but " the judicious grieved." It is, however,
our duty to state that Mr. ALDRIDGE was extremely web
ieceiv,(l. Mr. WaitnE's logo evinced far more than an
average portion of merit, but, like almost all whom we
have seen in the character, he allowed the villainy of
logo to appear too much on the surface. We were greatly
plea-ed with Miss E. TREE'S Desdemona. In the early
scenes her manner, playful delicate, confiding, was
quite in unison with the feelings of one to whom
the annoyances of life were as yet unknown ; but
the picture changes; and the harrowing grief which the
altered temper of the Moor creates was described by INliss
E. TREE with painful fidelity. Her acting was very beau-
tiful in the scene where, in contradiction to the Moor's
most rudely-couched accusation, she asseverates ber in-
