HAYMARKET THEATRE.—A new five act
comedy was produced last night, under the title of The
Peer and Peasant. The play has merits, but certsinly
not sufficient to entertain an audience from seven o'clock
till ten. The performers did their utmost; but the audience
manifested considerable displeasure during its progress, and
were most pertinaciously resolved to drown all endeavours
to announce it for repetition.
Mr. HUME has addressed a letter to an elec-
tor of Poole, which has since been published in a provin-
cial Journal, in which he states that though he cal!ed
upon Lord ALTHonr to abolish the sinecure office of Go-
vernor of Londonderry (worth 1,2001. a-year), it has
nevertheless been conferred on Sir JOHN BYNG, who is
a candidate for representing Poole in the next Parliament.

WILLIAM BLOUNT, Esq., a Roman Ca-
tholic gentleman, has offered himself as a candidate for the
borough of Stafford, and has commenced a canvass. Mr.
Gnimnrrcx, solicitor, of Macclesfield, has tendered his
services to that borough.—Birmingham Gazette.
Colonel CHICHESTER, of Calverley, near
Tiverton, has, we understand, announced himself a candi-
date for Tiverton.—Exeter Gazette.

A correspondent states, that " Mr. ALLEN,
of Creselly, is actively canvassing the county of Pembroke,
with a view to oppose the return of Sir JOHN OwEN at the
forthcoming election."— Cambrian.

NON-RESIDENCE.—We were in hopes, says
a correspondent in a Midland county, of having a visit
from our Rector, who, though be derives an income of
5001. a year from the living, has only visited it three times
in fifteen years ; but we were disappointed, he only got as
far as the neighbouring music meeting, and then returned
to his stall.

CHOLERA IN MARYBOROUGH.—Extract of
a letter, dated Maryborough, Friday night :—"I am sorry
to inform you that the cholera has for some days been
raging here, and it is feared, from the impoverished state
of the greater part of the town, will prove very fatal.—
Fourteen have died already, the greater part of whom
were persons in comfortable circumstances; and I have
just heard that the Major of the regiment quartered here
(the 60th Rifles), and a servant of his, are both in a very
dangerous state. You could not at all conceive the alarm
manifested by every person here. Business, which was
not, indeed, heretofore very brisk, is now completely at
a stand, while terror appears to mark every counte-
nance, and those who have at all means are quitting the
town and scattering themselves through the adjacent coun-
try, leaving their less fortunate neighbours to abide their
fate.—Dublin Morning Register.
SUSPECTED MURDER AT SPALDING.—
We regret that we have this week to publish some parti-
culars connected with the mysterious death of an abandoned
and dissolute female, who has been suddenly called from
her career of infamy\ to meet her Goo ! The name of the
unfortunate woman is JANE BUTCHER, the wife of a
respectable mechanic residing at Market Deeping, in this
county ; she was married about eight years ago, but at the
time of her death was only 24 years of age. About five
months since she left her husband's house—little did she
then imagine it was for the last time—and went to Spald-
ing, and there cohabited with a number of navigators then
at work there. About two or three months ago, she be-
came acquainted with a man named WADE, living at
Spalding, with whom she continued to cohabit, residing
occasionally at his house for a day or two. Last Thurs
day night, about 11 o'clock, an old tnan, named Inn,:
SEYMOUR, a gardener, residing near Monk's-house,
Spalding, was suddenly aroused from his sleep by WADE,
who informed him that a woman was lying on the road
quite de id. SEYMOUR immediately got up, and accom-
panied Wane about 200 yards on the Bourne turnpike-
road, where a dreadful sight presented itse:f. A woman lay
there, stretched on her back, without cap, bonnet, or shoes ;
she was dead and cold, and life appeared ta have been ex-
tinct several hours. The spot where she was found was
within 10 or 12 yards of a stile leading down to the garden
adjoining Wanes house. SEYMOUR, suspecting all was
not right, observed to WADE that he had been dragging
her on the read, to which the latter replied that he had just
come home, found her in his garden, and thought she was
drunk, so he dragged her upon the road, but found her dead.
Cametoo, the active constable of Spalding, was sent for,
and arrived about one o'clock. He secured the prisoner,
and despatched a messenger for Mr. Catmatacx, surgeon.
Candles were then lighted, and WADE was asked where he
found the woman ; he pointed out the spot just over the
stile in his garden, but upon CAMPION examining the
path, he observed that something had been dragged upon
it from the door of a building adjoining the prisoner's
house to the spot where the body lay, and a pair of shots,
which the prisoner said belonged to deceased, was found
in the out-house. On the arrival of the surgeon, about
two o'clock, the body was examined, Lut no external ap-
pearances presented themselves which could justify a belief
that deceased hail come to her death by violence. Toe
prisoner WADE gave some contradictory answers as to
finding the body, which was then, by the surgeon's direc-
tions, removed into WADE'S house. The prisoner was in
a beastly state of intoxication. On Friday last an inquest
was held on the body before SAMUEL EDWARDS, Gent.,
Coroner, at the Lio❑ Hotel, Spalding : a post-mortem exa-
mination was ordered, and the inquest was adjourned until
Wednesday. Thus all at present remains a mystery.
WADE, the drunken paramour of the unhappy woman, is
the youngest of five brothers of abandoned habits ; two of
them have been transported, one executed at York, one
died at the time warrants were issued for his apprehension,
and the prisoner is the only one of the 8005 left ; be is
about 24 years old.—Boston Gazette.
