, A Letter from Liverrol,datedjune 24, states—
" The Tragedyof The Revenge was performed here
last night. The chataaer of Alonzo Was sustained

by Mr: BARRYMOR E,and of Zanga Mr.COOPER.'
In the last scene of the Play, where Alonzo stabs
himself with :the dagger
.which he had previously
wrested from Zaqa, p')or BARRY MORE realized the
scene. • -It-was a real African dagger, a favourite of
Mr. COOPER, and the same: which he always uses
ict itaing Zanga. . Mr. BARRYMORE, not aware of
this, struck himself violently with the dreadful
weapon, and instantly fell upon the stage. As he
lay upon the stage, he called out softly for help,
saying, "I am wounded. It is a real dagger !"
Fur a few seconds, the Performers stood motion-
less from terror. At length some one cried out,
" drop the. curtain," and an alarm was excited.—
Some of the company ran from the house, others
flew to the stage to gratify their curiosity. Among
these were two medical gentlemen, who gave their
assistance. Upon examination they found that the
dagger took a slanting diredion across the lower
ribs, which it passed over, and lodged in his belly,
in which it inflicted a wound of about an irch.—
He lost a great .deal of blood ; it flowed over the
stage. The wound was dressed upon the stage,
after winch, he. was carried home, faint with the
loss of blood."

The ruinous Bridge in Hyde Park is to undergo
a thorough repair----next century.

Sunday se',nnight, as John Griffiths, of Lanmadock,
near Swansea, was walking on the sea-shore at
Whitford, he perceived a package floating on the
water, which he of course took up, and upon exa.
ruination it was found to contain vouchers to a very
large amount., letters of advice, various drafts, and
notes of hand, apparently cancelled, abstracts of
tenders, and other pap:.rs, mostly dated Fort St.
George, 13,nnbay, aod Madras. They appear to
belong to the executors of the estate of Arthur
Cuthbert, Esq. and, it is conjectured, had he'en lost
from on board an East India Ship; but notwith-
,
standing the long time they must have remained in
the sea, the papers are but little injured. A de-
scription of them was forwarded to a house in Lon.

COURT OF
COATES F.I. SYLVESTER DOUGLAS WILSON'.

Plaintiff is the tailor who has been e I syt
ed by the Rifle Corps, under. Car in? Co, ke the
Defendant is a young Gentleman of the Pdy Glee,
said to be nephew to a Noble Lord, aid a son of. a
Mr. Wilsor, Music-master, in the Hain,nertnith
Rood.

Mr. GARROW, for. the Plaintiff;, said, that tia'g
Anion was brought for six guineas and 4.1 half, being
the expenee of the Uniform in this C rps. ad-
rpited, that if the plea of infancy sh:uld be set up,
he could not shew,that the Defendant was of mr,
tore age, but he contended, that in the present cit.-
cinnstances of the titn:!s, a Military Station was the
scene of duty for every young mm, and that there,
fore this Uniform, being necessary during exercise
and inspetthm, must be placed in that class ot ne,
cessaries for •which he was liable by law. He.
added,
,that if the Lawyer's Corps, under Colonel
EttsxiNE, were to be deprived of all the hardk
youths under age, it would be reduced to a skeictoo,
suited only to excite the ridicule of the common
Enemy.
Mr. ERCKINE, for the Defendant; said, that the
father had offered the payment of the DAendant's
debt to the Plaintiff,. without Costs. The Mien-
dant was a Ver,y
,young man, of between sixteen aild
seventeen, annhe Learned Counsel was ready to
grant, that, in the event of Invasion, the preroga.,
tive extended to exaffing the every
bodied man in the Country : He did ia,r, therefore,
me-Arr to say, that his Client was notliable ,o serve,
under certain circumstances'; all he contended foe
was, that he was not liable to the present de.nrin‘L
—He had been supplied with the ordinary Deli
dress ; the charge now made was fur the Uinform.
of Parade, which did not seem to fall within the
'class of necessaries adverted.to by his Learned oe.c
ponent.

1,10 ELLENBOROTIGH said, that submitting to
inspeaion by His Royal Highness the Commander
in Chief, or others under him, was a part of his
duty in his military capacity.. This was the dress
of the Corps on such cNasions, and it secniNl. as
important as a cap and gown at the Universi,y-,:
which in law are c Insidered as neccssaries.—Vet%.

COURT 'OF COMMON PLEAS, Jusz

WALKER V. D'EGVILLE.
• This was an affion of assault ,brAght by the
Plaintiff; who is a Copier of Mo:ic, against• the
Defendant, who is•the principal Ballet Master at
the Opera House. - The transac.qion froth which the
a&hin arose, happened on the 6fli of March
Mr. BARROW opened the plea,lings, and
Mr. Serjeant SHEPHERD stated, that Walkt.r, the
Plaintiff,. is a man or a weak and sleral,'r trathe—«
D'Egville. is extremely robust and strong ; anki. hcs.
would refer him to, and, recommend much to his
considerat'On, a passage in Snakspeare, •

" "ris glorious to Possess a giant's str,:ngth,
" But tyrannous to use it like a giant,"
He was not.instruaed to accuse him with having a,ca
tuaily
inflicted blows on the Defendant; but a very
,painful and injurious assault may* committed with,
out- any adual blows. The Plaintiff said, he would
shake the life out of the Defendant—and in truth he
shook him to such a degree that the poAr mrtn's in,
testines received very seri:us injury, and lie has suf.
feted severely in his health ,in consequence of it.
When a man is shaken like a phial of medicine, and
all the ingredients of his inside arc jumbled together,
it may be productive ,of very fatal elftd?,. The
Learned Serjeant said, that Walker, in the grasp of
the Defendant, was like a shrimp. in the clutches of
a lobster. He has not been able to pursue his busi.
ness as before this injury was infliaed, and he h,ped
the Jury would give him that compensation which
the Defendant. ought spontaneously to have offered
before this cause came into Court.

Lydia Hall was the first witness produced. To
explain the mariner in which D'Egvile ;.hook
Walker, she seized the Crier of the Court, who
stood near her, and seemed inclined to give an exalt
representation of the assault, to the no small 'amuse.
merit of the bystanders, but he prudently shrunk
from her Amazonian grasp Serjeant SHEPHERD
asked her, is
.Walker a feeble Finn ? A. 0, yes,
very puny, indeed. Is Mr. D'Egville very stout ?
A. 0, yes, I believe so ? he is rite gentleman who
plays Hercules.
Other witnesses were produced in corroboration
of Lydia, and to chew the weakly state of the Plain.
tiff's' health.

On behalf of the Defendant, Mr. Serjeant BEST
addressed the Jury, by stating that the .Defendant,.
like most strong men, was very good-humoured.
He insinuated that the nervous attacks to which
Walker was subject` might be produced by dram_
drinking ; and asserted that D'Egville only laid of
him by the collar to make him do his duty ; for
there was a sudden change in the Ballet on that
night, and of course a requisite alteration was to
take place in the music, which it was Walker's
duty to attend to and transpose—for Madame
Parisot, Madame Deshayes, and Mons. Loborie,were
taken suddenly ill. Walker, instead of attending to
his duty as desired by his superior officer (the Ballet-
Master and present Defendant) was skulking
when he was brought back nolens volens, lest the
audience might take umbrage at the change of
entertainment, especially if something gratifying
were out substituted.

. •
For the Defendant • were produced Mr. Lewis
Simonet, Leader of the Band of the Ballet Music ;
Mr. Jewell, Treasurer of the Opera-House ; Mr, ,
Michael Kelly, and Mr. De Winter, for whom Mr,
Michael Kelly interpreted.—The Jury found a vt.r.
tha for the Plaintiff—rol. Damages.
