Tit E Cotedy of The i Sitspiciotsi linsband last night
introduced 'Capt. CAULFIELD to the ,Public in the
•Charader of Bilogel' at this Theatre. We whit
this gentleman had kept to the part of Hamlet,' in
which he displayed great merit, till he became
more accustomed to the Stage. The pathos and
elevation of tragic sentiments give energy to
:the deportment, or possess the mind so much, as
o renderideportment an object of subordinate con-
sideration. But in Comedy the demeanour is more
likely to attran attention ; and it isalways ex-
peeted to be easy, if not graceful.
Capt. CAULFIELD was not wanting in a proper
conception of the part ; and if, spirit were the
only requisite, he would have repeesenteci it very
well. His spirit, however, was not. under the regula-
tion of judgment, but "was a kind of wild im.
petuoSity that,hurried him through the part, and
nude allits various situations appear the same.
His of ion .was by no means recommended by ease
or grace. He twisted his body about in a kind of
gawky negligence, that did not mark the Man of
l'ashion, or the Man of the Town. hanger is a
sort of Town-Rake, of which we have richv few,
examples, but the prevailing feature of the part is
drawn from life, and the change of manners has not
banished it like the character of Foppingtsn, but
it is still understood, and has at least a fixed dia.
rafter on the stage. Spirit, however, has always
a strong influence upon the 'audience, and, iherefore,
Capt. CAULFIELD excited much ipplause, though
'we cannot think that it W:l5 :the doe 'tribute to any
prominent excellence.

Mrs. H. joHrtsTorr, why we know nor, was
put into the part of Clarinda, instead of Miss
MARRIOT. Mrs. H. Joutistoti is an improving
young aaress, but Clarinda is far above her stand.
ard, Instead of the well-bred ease, and spirit of
a Woman of Fashion, she gave us the giggling
gaiety of a Country Hoyden. The House was very
well attended.

THE third Concert was given last night, under
the direaion of the Earl of UXIIR togE, who pre-
sented a rich Seleftion to THEIR MAJESTIES, the
Pk I NCESSES, 'the PRINCE of WALES, and a very
numerous assemblage of the Nobility and Gdntry.
Mrs. BILL INGTON was unavoidably absent, from
indispoSition, mid Mrs. HAKR.I:;O N, who has not
sung in public for some time past, came forward,
we understand, by desire of 'the Diretiors, at
an hour's notice,' and without any previous re.
hearsal she sang " Pious Orgies,''' a Duet with
Mr. BARTLshIAN, the beautiful Glee of 14 0
Nanny," harmonized by Mr. HARRISON, and the
introduelion to " the Horse and his Rider," in a
very capital style, and/received that degree of ap.
plause, and marked resped, which her talents and
charafter entitle her to. •
FIR LION andIiAaTLEMAN exerted themselves
very successfully, and partiettlarly enraptured the'
audience in " God Save the King,": which was in.

thing more of him, than that hell'ad-taken a similar,

so injurious to the Plaintiff, that he lost the'situa-

for the purpose of restoring him 'to tlvit eittlation,
that this adion was brought ; for the Plairitift.did
not Tribute to the Defendant, who' was a reipetiable

men of the Banking.house, from which these 'words
were alledged to haNeotiginated, was heard to :;ay,,
that there was no irregtdarity whatever in LISA..I

A Motion was made in the House of Representa-
tives of the United States of America, on the 29th
of December, •by Mr. Gik AY, That a Committee
be appointed to inttlire into the expediency of pas-
sing a law, tendering all persons for ever incapable
of holding any office under the government of the
"United States, who should at any time hereafter be
concerned in any Duel, either in sending, carrying,
or accepting any written er verbal challenge." But,
on being taken into consideration' on the 3 rat, it
was rejetied, on the ground that Congress had no
Constitutional right to prescribe the qualifications
of public officers.
A person named Warner lately lost himielf in the
woods on the bank of the Ohio, anti continued in
that stite for twenty-two daysf when he was found
by some hunters. During tyat period he jived on
the buds of the sasafras.tree, a pole-cat, and a wild
pigeoe ;.the latter he eat raw. Havitig lost one of
his sheet, he way stung in the foot by a snake, and
was obliged fur several days ro go on
,his hands and
knees.
A young man,. named Dav, was on Thursday
apprehended at Saffron Walden, and committed to
Chelmsford gaol, charged with various burglaries.
Several articles of dress, &e. which he stole from
Mrs. Trench Chiswell, of Debden Hall, hemade
presents to his ,sisters ; and some provisions, which
be stole from A.Mr. Bunton, having been found in
the possession of his father, the old man has likewise
.been committed for trial ; the two daughters, and
another son, are bound to appor as evidences agains
their father and brother.
A melancholy accident occurred a few days since,
Scalford, near Leicester. The house of a Mr.
Holmss having been repaired, a chaffing-dish, with
ignated charcoal, w:,is put into the female servants'

adjoining roam on going to bed, and to leave their
door open ; instead of which, they kept it in their
room, and shut the door. In the morning they were
found in a.stattot sufrocatiim, and one of thetn ex-
pired in chteounie of the day.

TP THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
Feb. 4, 1803.
YOUR rtgaril for the lives of His Majesty's Sub..
,beets will induce you to give a place to this Letter.
which is written purposely to excite a greater degree
of caution on the part of those who have the direc.
tion of the Mail Coaches. The interest of the can.
cern, as well at the common interests of humanity,
calls for it, since the frequent 'accidents that happen
seem likely to bring this mode of conveyance into
disrepute. Little more than a fortnight ago, four
young Gentlemen, going to school, were overturned
in the Mail Coach near OXford, and narrowly es.
eaped.with.their lives ; and an accident has since
happened to the same Coach, on its way to Shrews.
bury, by which the Coachman was violently thrown
from his box, and other mischief done.
It seems highly necessary to make the Drivers of
these Coaches responsible, under a heavy penalty,:
for the safety of their charge ; and to levy it striCtly,
in all Cases of serious accident. As they are paid
with .a liberal hand, both by their employers and
by the passengers themselves, they have no excuse
for negligence ; and a constant sense of responsibi.
liry duly kept up, And enforced, would not only pt.
cite greater care in driving, but make them more
attentive to those casual impediments on the road,
which, for want dearly notice and representation,
often remain for a considerable time, to the great
danger of carriages passing in the night.

We learn from Dumbarton, that on Friday the
4th instant, a case was decided by His 'll,l4jesty's Jus.
aces of the Peace fur that county, of considerable'
importance •to the manufhauring interest of this
Country„wherein Messrs. WILLIAM STIRLING and
Sons, of Cordale and Dalguliurn Printfields, • with
concurrence of the Fiscal, were Complainers, and
certain Operative Printers were Defenders. The
Complaint was. founded on the Ad of the 39th and
4oth of His present-Majesty, cap. zo6, for " pre.
venting unlawful Combinations of Workmen." In
the course of the Trial it . was clearly established,
that a Combination, consisting of apprentices as
well as journeymen, had existed for about a year
past, and extended to-every printing,ground in
England, Scotland, and Ireland. The. Combination
bad for its objedoo transfer the regulation of prices,
and management of the hands, from the masters to
the operatives. To accomplish this purpose, local
distrids were established, regular meetings held, at.
tended. by Deputies horn each field, and Officers ap.
pointed for the general management of its affairs, and
who maintained a regular correspondence with the
leaders of the different distrids throughout the king.
dom. By the regulations of this AsSociation, any
member who conceived himself in the smallest de.
gree aggrieved by his employers, or who ryas offered
by them any price for his work which :he considered
inadequate, was direded, instantly to leave "his em.
ployasent, and was frOm that moment entitled'toie.
ceive from the public fund an allowance of ras._per
week, until he should find a master elsewhere who
would accede to his demands. Such member was
also entitled to a pass, sired by the Clerk .and
Steward of the district in which he was employed,
certifying that he hod lOU proportion to-
wards the general fund of the Society, which pass
insured to trim the good offices and friendship of the
operative printers -at any printing.grouod its Eng.
land, SCotland, or•lreland ; whereas any person ap.
plying witheiet a pass, even if be shuuld be offered
employment by. the masters, would be so ill reated
end 'abused by his ahapmates, that he could not pos.
silly continue at his work. These facts,' with
others of a similar kind, being proved to the satis.
fanion of. the Couit, the Defenders were convicted
upon the statute, two, of them' sentenced. to . three
months, and two of thern, on account of some fa.
vourable circumstances, to one month's imprison.
meat. Ceorgr AliFailane, grocer in Dumbarton.
Cletk to the district, was also committed- to pritton
for, three weeks, for gross prevarication upon. oath,
and contempt of Court.

, The, following, curious account of a Dutch exc.
cation is given In a letter from, a Gentleman at
Rotterdam
.14 I was one of the manyAhat attended, yeskr-
day, before the Stadbouse," three hours in the cold,
to see a Murderer decapitated. But, to be sure,
such an obstinate man never was seen! He would
not sic a moment still. - The under-officers and
diemlastr persuaded him to he quiet. But, no ! his
head went f one shoulder to the other, for all
the world la a Chinese Joss : two. Do/nit:is (pulgo
Parsons) !then attempted to preach him into patience,
persuading him, or at least attempting. to persuade
him, 4at the operation, being momentary, was
attended. with very little pain—but the obstinate
fellow would not, even believe the Domini: he was
•placed near the hillock of sand, but would not
kneel down ; the sob.ofEiiers attempted to place
him and to bend his knees ; but as snon'as ,one was
bent, the other was straight, and (vice wrsa. He
was then,. with ditlieulty,• blind.folded,.. and bound
dovvn ici a chair; but he shook himself and the chair
about, worse than a man labouring.under a violent
fit of the tertian ague.
• 11 In short, the culprit was determined not to lose
his head, as prescribed by law.- One of the Ma.
gistrates stepped out of the window Of the Stad.
houses on to the scaffold.—Bot, alas ! monies
partliriunt," it was 'labour in vain. The fellow
would hear nothing he had to sapr-on the tnelan.
choly subject. By this time the mob was immense.
Tbe little
:circle of thief.takers, executioner, &c.
around the man, looked very foolish at each other.
To shorten this extraordinary story, which I
humbly think merits t be handed dawn to poste.
rity, the obstinate dog gained Isis point, and went
out of this 'transitory world With,• his head on :
instead. of being beheaded like a Gentleman, they
hung him, as he deserved, like a Dog. I think our
neighbours, the French, would have beheaded sO in
the time that was lost by' our Dutch Artists in
considedng about it.''

Two Chairmen were last week fined .10$. 6d.
each, and dismissed from such employment by the
Magistrates of Edinburgh, lor refusing to carry a
