RENNET, of the Tribune, of his having, in company
with the Decade and Hydra, driven 35 sail o► Gun_
boats into a nook, near Cherbourg, and that, with

Earl STANHOPE has invented, and after much
labour brought to perfection, a contrivance applica-
ble to any musical machine played on by the finger ;
as an Organ, Harpsichord, or Piano ; by which the
music is printed by the mere (yeration of touching
the note, so that copies of the music may be multi-
plied as often as any tune is played over.
At a full Meeting of the Loyal Tarbert Corps of
Cavalry in Ireland, commanded by Sir EDWARD
LESLIE, Bart.Captain-Commandant, they all unani-
mously offered their service to any part of the King-
dom when called on ; and for which His Excel-
lency the Lord Lieutenant was pleased to return
them his most gracious thanks.

Mrs. MILLS, of Covent Garden Theatre, has
been for some time so much indisposed, that she is
in no likelihood soon to resume her professional la-
bours.

The new Ballet, founded on the story of The
Tempest, which has been long in preparation at the
Hay.market Theatre, is not to be strictly confined
to that Play, but is to be improved by all that can
heighten and diversify the interest of the Piece,
taken from the alterations of it by FLETcHEtt,
SUCKLING, and DR YD RN.
WKOUGHTON certainly resumes the management
of Drury. Lane Theatre next season, and it is a
trust that could hardly have been submitted to more
judicious and experienced hands.
BEATTY is the name of the little Irish Roscius,
who is now exerting his extraordinary talents in
Scotland. .His name alone will doubtless render him
acceptable to the natives of that country, as it is
endeared to them by the memory of a man distin-
guished Er genius, worth, and learning.
Lord GR ENV I L LE has shown his respeEl for Mr.
PITT, notwithstanding their political differences,
in dedicating to that upright StatesmA'n some Li...E.
ters on the subject of Education, written by the
late Lord CH in a style of dignified senti_
ment and moral energy worthy of his high charader.

The Earl of B- drove his Curricle to the
evening rout of Lady Lou tsA MANNERS, on Mon-
day last, in Pall-Mall: getting involved in the
crowd of carriages, he lost his temper, and dealt
his whip very ireely upon a contiguous Coachman.
The man bore this Lordly lashing for some time
with great patience, but lost his temper in turn,
and wielded his 'whip with such dexterity about the
angry Peer, that the latter was sorely convinced of
the truth of what the Poet says :

" A Lord oppos'd against a man, is In: a man."

The Ligurian Senate has, it seems, shown its
-clemency to an old offender, by changing the in-
tended punishment of death into imprisonment in
irons for fifty Jeans. The Senate perhaps conceives
that this offender is as long-lived as an elephant.
It is probable, however, that before a tythe of the
time has pzssed over him, the Ligurian Senate will
be Swept away by another revolutiolzat:y storm.
It does not appear whetl.•• the new Emperor of
France means to revive the cid Nobility of the
French Court, Perhaps, indeed, he may conceive
that now France is exalted from a Kingdom into an
Empire, the former orders of Noblesse would be too
low and vulgar for the Corsican Court.

Spoil Nc.—Last week a match was run between
Lieut. MOORE, of the Royal Navy, riding his cele-
brated mule, Muley Bey (got by Lord MILFORD'S
Spanish ass, out of a blood mare), carrying sixteen
stone, against Capt. STOKES, of the Hunts Militia,
on foot, over the turnpike road from Milford to
Haverfordwest ; which after a severe contest, was
won by the latter, notwithstanding the day was
very wet. Five to three in favour ut Mr. MOORE,
at starting ; at the end of the first mile even bet-
ting; and at the end of the third, 6 to 4. iia favour
of Capt. SroKEs.

On Saturday last, while Mr. COH EN, one of the
Jewish Rabbies, was preparing to officiate in the
religious duties of the Synagogue, he fell down in a
fit, and expired soon after. On Monday forenoon the
body was interred in the Jewish burying:ground at
Mile End, with great pomp and solemnity, upwards
of a hundred and forty cua,,:he fullowing the body
to the grave.
