CUMBERLAND'S BRITISH THEATRE.

We have been greatly pleased with a numbel
of this useful little publication, containing tilt,
" Highland Reel," a farce by O'Keefe, headed
with a frontispiece of Miss Foote, in the cha-
racter of doggy McGilpin. There is mucl
softness and delicaq of finish in this engrav-
ing, though, as far as resemblance goes, it is fai
from being complete. This, however, is the
painter's defect ; the engraver has done ample
justice to his work, for nothing can exceed Hit.
wavy richness of the feathers, or the freedom and
natural grace with which the tartan embroider\
is executed.

DURHAM ELECTION.

(F 1631 OUR, Owl; cORKESPONDENT.)

DURHAM, JAN. 2G.—The rumour that there would
be a county meeting called, relative to the Repre-
sentation of the Palatinate, amounts to nothing.
Had the thing been seriously contemplated, there
can be no doubt that the local papers this week
would have contained a requisition for that purpose.
Indeed, as I stated in my letter of this day se'nnight,
every thing goes to spew that Mr. Russell, of
Brancepeth Castle, will be Mr. Lambton's succes-
sor. The Newcastle Chronicle, of this day, says—
" We have every reason to believe that the report
which has been in circulation, of its being the de-
sire or intention of a Certain Noble Baron (Durham)
to influence the ensuing Election for the county of
Durham, is without foundation. We believe the
result will bear us out in the assertion that his
Lordship will not, in even the most remote way, do
any thing to cause even a suspicion that be enter-
tains a desire to interfere 1-7ith the independence of
the county." How has it happened, by the bye,
that the Hon. Ex-Member, in his Address to the
Durham Freel:olders, signs his name John George
Lambton, on the 18th instant, when the patent
creating him a Baron appears in the Gazette, with
the date of January 17th ?
