SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
(RECEIVED THIS DAY.)

GORTON R

QUEEN'S THEATRE.
Last evening Mr. Hudson Kirby represented the chlei
ratter of Sir Giles Overreach, in Massinger's play,o
A New Way to Puy Old Debts. The performance of
moots
very difficult character was admirable, and was
14
perfect and artistical than his representation of Halot,,
on Monday night. We have seldom seen the avarioi°:,
knight so well represented, and it is evidently in ebb
ratters such as these, in which great energy is requir.ia
that Mr. Kirby excels. His representation of Sir GS,.
last night was powerful in the extreme, and through
";,,,
latter scenes of the play he was greeted with entbusisiji'
bursts of applause. The characters of Justice GO'S
and Wellborn were exceedingly well played by r.
Manders and bfMr. Parry.

THE LITTLE BOY, FRANCIS KELLY.---011 .• • 0
nesday last, under the head of Bow-street, we gavetts
report of a case which came before Mr. Jardine. hole
I/ e
that of a little boy who, having run away from Ws hold
in Bristol, came up to London on foot, and ',vas foil
0,
sleeping in a door-way in the Strand. The, little fell°
was sent about his business, and told to walk back aggire
to Bristol, he being at the time
'without food, and withret
out a farthing of money to find him any. The report `e The Sun has attracted the attention of several hutcs.„ll
persons who' have called upon our reporter at 13°-ro
street. One lady came yesterday to ascertain wilt,
the boy was to be found, as she would willingly "ma%
him down to Bristol, she being resident there.
No:-,,p
count, however, was taken of the poor little fellow,
v",
he was sent about his business without a question be!Xls
asked as to where his parents lived, and how h'e
dire
tended to get home, The lady appeared very much(bre
appointed, and expressed the great regret she
',eh at 4' manner in which the case had been disposed of

ACCIDENT AT THE CITY IMPEOYEMENTS NBA'A - i. GENERAL POST-OFFlCE.—Yesterday afternoon an se;
dent occurred of a frightful and alarming nature,;ys
Maiden-lane, at the rear of the Goldsmittaf ComP° yo Hall. A number of workmen were ergaged in reno

Grimsdalc, Bishopgate-street, was drawn up on an j„Ty manse pile of rubbish, and the carman, in recklefs7d
endeavouring to turn it, capsized the cart and sin% into an excavation of 12 feet in depth, in which neqiit
a dozen men were at work. The horse and cart fell v1)30
fearful violence, knocking down several men, but„ Wof
