THE THEATRE.

DittnY-LAE.—The Merchant of Venice was
represented here last night. , AS KEAN first esta-
bikhed his reputation in Shglock, we have only to
observe that his merits were the same, but his
peculiarities i•aither increased. His pauses were
much longer than heretofore, and he sinks into a
familiarity by no weans consistent With the sit tut
firm of the character. For instance, last "light,
when his revenge is disappointed, on the exposi-
tion of the Venetian law by Portia, and he ought
t have appeared Overwhelmed by surprize and con,
ste►•nation, he said " is that the law ?" with as
much calmness and ease, as it he had been asking
the hour of the day, ot• any 'other insignificant
question ; and his long pause, and fixed look at
Gratiano, and bitter frown at Bassrznio, when he
finally quitted the stage, were wholly inconsistent
with "- the downright violence and storm of pas-
sion " which must be supposed to have agitated
his mind on the frustration of his revenge, the
loss of his fortune, and the horrible necessity of
becoming a Christian. But he is an actor of ori-
ginal merit, and we Censure with reluctance.

A MoNsi•att.— Two young Ladies; named
EVERR+T, residing in NottingliaM Terrace, were
utonly attacked on their teturti from a walk-up
t.fe New Road, • near the end of Baker-Street
North, on Tuesday evening at desk, by a fellow
.dressed like a gentleman.- He first obtroded ppon
them with inip&tin,nt importunities, which the
Ladies rejected ; and to get rid of him they called
open a friend fur a tete minutes. On their icaving.
the fellow struck one of thema blow in the front
of the face with a stick, which laid her prosttate.
The screams of the sister brought Turnbull, one
of the toll collectors, to the soot, bat the ruffian
had escaped. This is not the first wanton assault
of the kind he had committed, and as his person is
well kudten to the.Mary-le-boneOliicers, we hope
to hear of jlistice overtaking him.

MORE or LORD ERSKINE'S BROoNlS.—Matthew
Mason appeared yesterday to answer a summons
issued against him under the Hawkers' and Ped-
lars' Law, 50 Geo,. 111. chap. 41. Mr. HARNETT,
the Solicitor for the prosecution, stated, that the
present information was filed at the instance of
Charles Cook, one of the Inspectors of Hawkers'
Licenses, against the present nominal defendant
Matthew Mason, for earring to sell, and exposing
for sale, birch brooms, without having obtained
a license, as required by the statute, and the facts
of the case he world prove to be as follows : that
the brooms in question were manufactured upon
the estate of Lord Erskine by his workmen and
servants, and afterwards by his Lordship or his
Steward, sold by wholesale to Mr. David Mason,
one of his Lordship's wholesale broom merchants,
who, by himself and his servants, hawked them
in carts about the streets of this large metropolis ;
some he sold to his customers, and others to any
casual passenger milling to purchase.
The Defendant was attended by his Solicitor,
who said he would, on the part of his client, prove
that the Defendant was not hawking the brooms,
but was delivering them to a prior order. But inas-
much as he was not then prepared with sufficient
evidence to prove that fact, he requested the Ma-
gistrates to postpone the hearing to another day,
when lie would' come prepared to give a full an-
swer to the present information ; and the Solici-
tor for the prosecution consenting to this request,
the case was ordered to stand over for another day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

/-1:01tSE CHAUNTING.—John Pywell, a than of
dashing appearance, was charged with fraud, in
obtaining money at that which is technically
'termed horse Mounting, that is, in other words,
making up horses for sale, which are not worth
one tooter of the value they seem to be. The
prosecutor, Mr. Gimlets, a Gentleman of fortune,
residing at Kingston Villa, was attracted by an
adverefsement in a Morning Paper, by what he
conceived a bargain, and he repaired to the given
address, where horses were to be. sold, the pro-
perty of a Gentleman going abroad. On the sth
of July the prosecutor purchased three horses for
1501. and a man of the name of Jones appeared as
the owner of them, who stated that they belong-
ed to a deceased Captain Lovett, of the 50th re-
giment, who died an insolvent, from the wounds
he received at the battle of Toulouseo. Jones gave
the pedigree of
.the horse Noble, as bein,; one of
Steady, out of the Waxy filly. The prosecutor
'gave 101. earnest money, and having purchased
the horses, agreed to pay the remainder on the
followiog Monday ; but on his going to the stables,
a Lady, who was represented as Mrs. Jones, stated
that the horses had been removed. The horses were
found at Chandler's, the Red Lion Livery-stables,
Gray's Inn-lane, as_ the prosecutor thought ; but
when his groom went there,. he found a stal-
lion only, a part of the purchase. The stable
was stated to have been taken by Mr. Tapley, a
horse-dealer, and the horses were stated to be-
long to :he prisoner. Mr. Gorden, previous to
this, had paid 1121. for the horses, and then his
servant was informed that Mr. Jones, in riding
one of the horses out, had got a nail in his foot.
The prosecutor was satisfied with his apparent
.bargain on inspecting the horse. Without enter-
iog into a mass of evidence, it turned out that
one of the horses was sold to a Lady, and Char-
ters, the servant of the prosecutor, proved, that
the horses had been removed front the Black Lion,
Water-lane. The principal fact to prove a con-
nection between the prisoner and Jones, was that
he was privy to the removal of the horses by his
hand-writing to the livery stable keeper, He for=
bore to enter into further particulars at present.
Jones, agains! whom the evidence chiefly applied
on this day, is in a lock-up-house for dent. The
prisoner %vas taken off the coach by Thomas Foy,
returning trout Woburn Fair. There were other
charges of a similar nature, which were not enter-
ed into. A Col. M`Lochlin had a charge to make
on the next occasion, as.had also Miss.Naughten,
who bought the chesnut mare, The prisoner tvas

DR. ITARDING.

In our last we concluded the voluminous report
of the Commissioners appointed to investigate the
alleged abuses in the. Convict department of this
city, and our readers are now able to appreciate
the motives.of the writer of a paragraph whit')
lately appeared in a factious London Print, and to
which we adverted a few posts back, We confi-
dently appeal 'to their judgment, whether any
mind, howeverpreverted, could torture auy pas-
sage of that report into the slightest imputation
on the character or conduct of Dr. HARDING.
On the contrary, the investigation of the subject
most be regarded as reflecting the highest credit
on both, for it appears from the. report that there
existed among some of those connected with the
ingniry, a disposition by no. means influenced by
partiality to that Gentleman, and that, in rob-
lag the subject to the bottom, if •they could dis-
cover the smallest ground fur accusation aaahrst
hint, there would not be
.much reluctance iu bring-
ing it forward. Yet be has passed through this
()Ideal not only without injury 'but with honour.
'There have been, however, rumours circulated,
that Dr. 11. had been deprived of his appointment
Physician to the Convict Department in this
city ; but to the mortifica,ion of his caltnitniatorS,
Ire have the pleasure to state, ,that lie Onfiriues
to iiii that importiint office, 'the duties Of Which
he In so long discharged with equal 'credit to
bintsclf and advantage
.to the public.--(Cotk-4d-

the property upon them, and were committed for
re-examination.

Coici's annual Sheep-shearing, at Holk-

NA I'IUNA 1E17.4.L5.

We resume the subject of these gratifying
cords of the National 'ft-inn:ph) during the late
War, because they will tend to perpetuate the
meniury of events that, under the protection or
Great Britain, who owing t:) her firmness anil,per-
severance, while the other Governments or
rope were obliged, iu tern, to submit to a law.:
less Con queror—by that firmness and persever,
auce, occasioned•the deliverance of thetil all. • We
lately suggested the propriety of inCroducing the.
Head of Bw,NAPARTE Among the Serivs, as the
Fallen '!grant Coll9rillltCd 30 conspicuous a fi4tire
in the memorable History of the most impoi taut
transactions that ever took place in Ihe civi-
lized world. Tile ingeniOus and enterpriziug Pro-
jector has., we find, adopted our hint, and has
introduced an admirably executed Medal on the
subject. One side presents an exact and spirited
Profile of the defeated Despot, around whose head
is inscribed " NAPOLEON .13UONAPAUTE." The
other side gives a beautiful. representation of the
BELLEROPHON, which received him, awl another
British vessel in the distance. The mechanical
excellence of this representation, with respect to
the vessels and the waves of the sea, exceeds all
praise, and is fully equal to any' of the lormer
parts of the Series. On the other stile, in the circle,
is inscribed--" Surrendered to H. B. M. S. 'kik-
ropbon, Captain MAITLAND:" and beneath is
XV July MDCCCXV."
We repeat our former assertion, that nothing
of the _one nature more. bcautiliii and strikilig,
in this province of the Arts, has ever been seen,
and we may well quote the lines of the Poet on
the occasion :

" The Medal, faithful to its charge of fame,
'0 1 hto' chores aa4 ages hctas eate'o folio sod name;
" in uric short view hoblected to our rye,
" Gods, Fttny'rors, licrues, Sages, 13cautins, he."
The Poet proceeds to say—
" Oh! when shall BRITAIN, eormious of her claim,
" Stand emulous of GRLEK and ROMAN Lime,
" la liviog Medals sea her Wail enr.ll'd,
" And yanquisled ltealins atiplily recording goo'.

ARUNDEL M 2G.

The Duke of NoarotA is expected to visit the
Castle in the course of this week. Grare
also intends to admit the Nobility anti Gentry to
view the magnificent interior of that ancient 'and
structure, as soon as the grand vaintad
window is fixed m the Baron's Hall. The exten-
sive alterations and improvements at Arundel
Castle, which the late Duke carried on whit more
than princely expenditure, are ordered to he en-
tirely suspended. The present Duke has been Ili-
mitsishing the fine stock of .deer in the Parks, in
order to convert, a Meat putt of these noble du-
mains into small farms.
Further additional e.iscoveries of Roman anti-
quties, in a beautiful state of perfection, have
been matte at the villa of Bignet, Within four
miles of this town, which excites the cariosity of
a great number of travellers.
We are happy to announce the very flattering
agt knit oral report of the crops in the western Ili-
vision of this county, which is confirmed by the
general observations of the farMers residing along
the coast, the South Downs, and in the lertile
%Weald of SnsSeX.
The genial showers of rain, which have ro•
pi,osly fell for the last week, have nikaeolonsly
improved the Lsamias sown WhealS beyrotd all

the Oats do not promise well, and the crop ap-
pears thin and straggling in many places. The
Barley sowing is not completed, but the late rains

DREADFUL ACCIDENT.

CASTLEBAR, MAY 12.—A very distressing accla
dent, of an awful nature and deplorable extent,
occurred on the night of Friday last, at Nen-port,
in this County, and has involved. in gloom and-mi.
sery.almost every family in that town and neigh.
bourhooll It appears that some oft he young people
ofthe piece had associeted fur theporposeapei form -
inga play, and were accommodated with upper sloe
ry of a new horse belonging to Mr. Denis Holm),
to which.some were admitted upon paying a mere
trifle, and great numbers had gratuitous access
The consequence was, shat the floor was unable
to sustain toe crowd tliat collected, and the joists
gave way at the end of the room where the au«
dieoce was seated, those at the opposite end con-
tinuing firm in the wall— The whole company
thus tell down upon the second story, into a nar-
rower space than they had occupied above,and this
floor having also yielded to the weight, they
were precipitated into a gateway below. tiere as
may be well supposed, a dreadful scene ensued--
the gates were closed, and all was darkness, until
the frightful screams of those within alarmed those
abroad-. After some hesitation, and Subsequent
difficulty, the outside gate was btoken open, and
it was then discovered that three persons were
killed upon the spot, and nearly 100 injured in a
greater or less degree.
One of those who were killed in the house was
John Duff, Esq. late of Newry, a INilagistrete of
the County of Down and two of the adjacent
Counties, who retired, after his failure in a re-
spectable branch of trade, upon a visit to a friend
in this county, and was the occupant, at the time
of his decease (in the absence of the Rev. Thomas
Mahon) of the Glebe Cottage at Newport. This
Gentleman was much esteemed, and is greatly re•
gretted. He was very corpulent: on Friday morn•
ing,the day of his death,we understand he weighed
20 stone.

Another of the deceased was daughter to Lieut.
Kearns; of the 68th Light Infantry ; and the
third was Mary Philbin, daughter to a shoemaker
of the name of Sylvester. A woman, named
Murdangh, who has suffered an amputation of the
leg, and is otherwise miierably mangled, is, we
are informed, altogether in a hopeless state.
Amongst the wounded are, Mrs. Kearnsoeve
rid of whose ribs are broken ; Miss Davis, of
Mullawn, who has suffered in the same way ; the
Her. Mr. Potter, Protestant Curate; Mr. John
Davis, of the South Mayo Militia, and t‘vo sisters ;
Mrs. Archbold, who has her collar-bone broken;
Mr. James Wilson, &e. ,
