After the Opera last night, Mrs. Stop°Ns, who
sat with Lady 11A[ cou wr and a large party, in
the orchestra box at Drury-lane Theatre, was
introduced by Mr. ELLISTON into the Green-
room. She expressed herself delighted with
Miss %YU:SOWS unusually fine voice, -and said to
the fair debutante, that she had never seen so
much science combined.with such extraordinary
fine acting. Mr. CALcuAvrr, the Hon. GLORGr
E
LAMB, with several Members' of the House of
Commons, were enabled to pay their tribute of
applause to this distinguished young lady. Mrs.
SIDDONS was recognized during the. performance,
and was loudly cheered by the audience. •

shelter, with his suite, in'Rue Michalicre, where,

His company, while here, chiefly consisted of

has passed, during his last visit to this place,
without his receiving, by a Royal Con.rier or

important State PaperS, to the common mail.
The only improvement, recently .remarked
in BERGAMI'S parurc, was a pair of superb ear-

gracefully on the cape of his coat. As it ha
been ascertained that they are of EngliTh maims

conclusion of the trial, there has ,been ample
employment for 'the caricaturists, and their
sketches have been,and continue to be,lnirchased
with avidity, both by natives and foreigners.. The.
delicacy of the Freud' Ladies is as little shocked
at the representation, as that of the QutEs was
at the reality of persons and things- now publicly
exposed in a thousand places at Paris. Their
great stirpri7,e is not ¶the matter of fact, but the
sad indiscretion with which the matter Was ma-

raged by St. Caroline: The subjects of these
diversified. caricatures 'cannot, with any sense.
of decency, be noticed. The Curiosity of the
Parisians, on this wretched topic, seems inex,
t.:guishable. A publication, entitled " 'Dee
tort of the Queen of England," two volumes, 8-vo.
which appeared about ten days ago, has bad a
Vast circulation. The author gives•some singular

particulars of her 'MAJESTY'S early life, and no-
tices several of her pursuits and propensities while
at the Court of Berlin. Some of these are evidently
taken from the celebrated Mr RABEACS Letter•,
written in that capital, in 1785. lle next enters
into the principal points of the " delicate investi-
gation," and after giving the most material parts
of the evidence on the late trial, .he concludes
thus If there be not evidence quite enough

to prove her manifest and downright gailt, there
is unquestionably more than enough to convince
every unprejudiced mind that she is not inuo-

ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION ()1• COL MOWN'S.-

The following is a copy of a letter, dictated
by Colonel .Bnowsc, and addressed to a Friend
in London. The letter is signed by the Colonel,
and we are happy to 'observe it confirms thto
hopes that were entertained of his recovery from
the atrocious attack which was made upon hith :

NI/LAN, JAN. 15.—Yop will hare bran% I am sure, with
much concern, of ,the outrage which w•as offere,l Mt' at
place on the night of the Bth inst., on my return homelro►n
tlra Theatre.

" ain happy to say, that, thanks to skilful surgical treat-
ment, and the unequalled kindness of ►ny friends, I am mak—
ing rapid progress towards recovery, though not yet quit•
strong enough to leave my bed. The wounds in my head, OC
which three were tolerably deep, have suppurated well, and
are now healing fast. A discharge began the day berire.yes-
terday from that in the breast, which has operated mn,t
favourably, and has relieved me from a very troublesome'
cough and most acute pain. I am much weakened, Inn m
spirits are excellent, so that I hope in the course of 14 or 15
days to he able to begin, by easy stages. my journey to Ens-
land. Dr. Ciceri is rconbtful on this point, but I trust much
to a good constitution for strength•to perform it.

•
The Aolhoritie4 and Police here have used, and still'ely-
tinue every exertion to discover the perpetrators of this font
and cowardly deed. and the examination of twelve or thir-
teen pet,ons has given traces which they confidently expect
will lead to a discovery. For my own part, I think the itol!
.chance is,• that by and by one of the assassins will impeach
the other.

"The indignation which has been excited in all classes
this city, by this painful transaction, can be better imagined
than desci ibed.

" Yon are aware, that although I had my watch and. some
money about uic, nv attempt was made to rob me."

THE Aamy.—The following is the report of
the intended reduction of the Army :—The whole
of the Veteran Battalions ; in the three Regi-:
ments of the Guards,- all men under 'rive'-feet
eight high, in the three Battalions of the First ;
those under five feet ten, in the Coldstreams ;
and five feet nine in the Third Regiment.
The Mancho.ter. MercurN says----:44 We. nnaer-
stand that the. Earl of LIVERPOOL has stated, hi
answer to the inquiry of the Manchester Chartr.
ber of Commerce and Manufactures, as to the
probable•security of British property in,Naples,-
that he sees no reason why the state of, peace
which at present subsists between this country
and the kingdom of Naples should be interrupted :
_and that instructions will, of course, he given to
the British Agents and Authorities in thz:t•quar-•
ter, to afford 'every practicable protection -to Bri-
tish 'property,, if circumstances should appear to
require it."
Mrs. CotirTs, last week, on the anniversary cf
her Wedding-day, regaled with roast beef,•plumb
puddina and a liberal quantity,, of ale, all the
debtors and their families confined in the County
Gaol of Stafford.
Chian .AND- NEATE.—This match was off last
inight, by Cribb receiving a forfeit of 101. which
[ was to have been made 1001. on Wednesday

evening.
