- There is something curious in the infirmities of
theatrical people, which are in a great measure de-
pendant on time and place. It has happened more
than once lately that a theatrical Syren has been
unable to perform her duty on the Stage, and yet
has been very able to exert her vocal powers fur the.
entertainment of private partieS.

A very whimsical figure of an avant courier, it
seems, attraaed much attention at the Opera-House
Masquerade last week, and was highly diverting
to the' company. One half of the face represented
M. TALLEYRAND: and the other half Mr. TIER_
KEY. lie wore a cloak of Loyalty, and a cap of
Libertj, but neither fitted him. The mask was as
entertaining in what he said as in his appearance,
delivering an odd mixture, consisting of loyal sen-
timents, addressed to those whom he affected to
consider as monarchical in their principles, and of
jaobinical zeal to those whom he treated as friends .
of dernocrary.

ROWING 'MATCHE'S.TiIe London men are not
satisfied.with the issue of their 'late contest with
the Gravesend men. A new match is making up,
in which the same six Gravesend men who rowed
before, are to he matched against the three men
who did not give in, and three others of equal abi-
lity. Another match is on the tapis between the
Greenwich and Woolwich BOatmen and those of
Gravesend.

It is said that a German ProfcsTor, in a latte work,
has represented Billingsgate as.'the oldest :School of
