A STLEY'S AMPHITHEATRE.

The grand new Easter Spectacle at this most en-
tertaining little theatre was the Storming of Serin-
gapatam. It was very splendid, and the acting of
the horses alone—who are really such promising and
industrious performers—was quite sufficient to en-
sure it a favourable reception. The dresses were
appropriate—the thirty-seven new scenes splendidly
Oriental as the most fastidious Nabob could re-
quire, and the combats, and military and equestrian
evolutions, well fitted to support the established re-,
putation of the Theatre, in that peculiar department.
The plot of the piece takes in the whole of the cir,
cumstances which preceded the siege of the important
fortress of Seringapatam, and which terminated in
the death of Tippoo Saib, the capture of his sons,
and the total destruction of those powers which were
then leagued against the British East India Company.
Itsgreatest merit is to be found in the clearness with
which it leads us to the final catastrophe, for speak-
ing of it with reference to more complicated dramatic
pieces, we might be justified in saying that it formed
little better than an apology for the introduction of
the characters and the display of the scenery and
evolutions. The Duke of Wellington, who was
engaged in the whole of this war, and who was left
in command of the fortress after its capture, is ina
troduced to us as Colonel Wellesley; but we are
unable to proclaim the representative of his Grace
as affording any promise of those high attainmcri:s
which have since raised him to such distinction in
the Cabinet and the field. Colonel Wellesley, how-
ever, like his companions -in arms, did that duty
bravely and zealously which the author imposed
upon them, and the curtain fell amidst the explosions
of the ruined citadel and the applauses of the spec-
tators. We should not omit to mention among the
catalogue of novelties at this Theatre, the achier-
ments of the little horse Butterfly, who springs
through three hoops and over three horses at one
jump, and shows himself what Domine Sampson
would call a " prodigious" genius.
London, England, 1829-04-21

lay aside the distinguishing uniform of the Day-'
police—we mean the blue coat and red waistcoat,
which can be of no other use when they parade the
streets than to serve notice of their approach upon
the thieves, and thus enable them to get out of the 1'
way. We would ask what would be thought of the
sagacity of a farmer, who, after having takes great
pains to set traps in his field to catch vermin that
swarmed, to the great injury of his crops and
poultry-yard, should hang out signals to frighten
the vermin from running into the traps, amd
so perpetuate the nuisance which he seemed anxi-
ous to destroy. He would certainly not pass for
a man of very bright parts, or much practical
shrewdness; and, probably, his neighbours might
doubt his claim to an ordinary portion of corn.
mon-sense. Yet the absurdity of the farmer's
conduct is rivalled by that of a Police esta-
blishment, which sends out men to catch thieves,
and at the same time takes the best means of adver-
tising the thieves to keep out of their way. What
is the consequence ? The thieves commit their de-
predations with perfect security to themselves, in
our streets, in the day-time, as far as the regular
police are concerned, and it seldom happens that one
of them is apprehended, sinless the passenger whose
property is attempted is himself active, and fortu-
nate enough to lay hold of the fellow while his hand
is in his pocket, or to be able to raise the neighbour-
hood on him in fresh pursuit. When a gang of
thieves go out plundering street passengers in the
day-time, they have scouts on watch to give
them notice of the approach of the " red-
breasts," whose scarlet waistcoats they can, of
course, discern at a considerable distance, so
that they may take themselves away with-
out any great hurry from the quarter
threatened with the visitation of justice, to some
other place where the work of plunder can go on
unmolested. Instead of proceeding in this way, the
police-officers ought to mingle with the crowd with-
out any thing to distinguish them from ordinary
passengers. If these- persons should be particularly
known they ought to adopt every sort of disguise
that may conceal their own movements from those
whose operations it is their duty to watch and coup•
teract. By acting in this manner, which is only,
indeed, what common sense points out—they would
prevent a great deal of the scandalous depredation
which now takes place with impunity, under the
noon-day sun, in the streets of London, and also
would infuse a wholesome terror into the thieves,
who would be continually under the dread of sur-
prise and sudden capture.—Morning Herald.

COBURG.

This theatre was last night crowded to excess, itt
consequence of the announcement of the two new'
Easter pieces, the Money Diggers, or the Devil's
Ship, and Peter Bell Me Waggoner. Both were
interesting, and full of incident, hut the best of
the two was decidedly Peter Bell, in which Mr.
DAVIDGE wrought a powerful effect on his audiences
by the spirit, energy, and perfect nature of .his per-
formance. Amongst its other claims to a share of
the popular patronage of these holiday times, this
theatre has to boast the advantage of being splen-
didly re-embellished; and it certainly presents .a
tout ensemble of elegance and taste for a minor esta-
blishment. A set of beautiful allegorical paintings,
which do credit to the pencil of DAMSON, ornament
the lower circle, heightened by ►medallions of fluted
crimson velvet, and rich gold mouldings. The rest
of the house presents the prevailing colour of warm
French white, relieved with green, enriched with
burnished gold. The ceiling is newly and elegantly
painted, the boxes are newly papered, and every
thing exhibits an air of neatness, novelty, and
beauty. After the two new pieces, Undine was
repeated, and received as before by the loud accla-
mations of the audience, a tribute which it deserves
by its extraordinary splendour and interesi.

ENGLISH OPERA-HOUSE.

Monsieur PELMET sustained last night the part
of Harpagon, in MOLIERE'S well-known comedy of
L' Avare, with a success equal to what might have
been expected from an actor of his great eminence
and versatility. The scene in which he gave vent
to his despair, on discovering that he bad been
robbed of his treasures, was marked by extraordi-
nary animation, and elicited the most rapturous al),
plauses. Two new vaudevilles, each in one act,
followed, under the titles of Caleb and La Prineessc
de Tarrare. The first is founded professedly on
some incidents in Sir W. SCOTT'S " Bride of Lam-
mermuir," but the leading features are cramped and
distorted, so as scarcely to be recognized. Both,
however, were amusing, and met with a favourable
reception from the audience.

GRAND PEDESTRIAN FEAT.

Thomas West, the new champion pedestrian, started
from the Artillery Arms, Vauxhall-road, exactly at 20
minutes past eight o'clock on Tuesday morning, to per-
form his undertaking for walking 42 miles per day back-
wards, in ten successive days, with the exception of Sun-
days. He is backed at 50 sovereigns to 40, and is to fulfil
his engagement in 13 hours every day. On his arrival at
Brewer's Green, Pimlico, about three furlongs from where
he started, he happened to fall over one of the plugs in the
open road, by which accident he unfortunately cut three of
the leaders of his left hand ; but, nothing daunted, he
continued his progress till he reached the Waterman's
Arms, at Wandsworth, where his hand was dressed by
Messrs. Johnson and Lloyd, surgeons, whence he pro-
ceeded with his arm in a sling on his journey, and accom-
plished his first day's walk in eleven hours and three
minutes, being within one hour and fifty•seven minutes of
the specified time. During his course he was greatly an-
noyed by the pressure of the populace, on account of losing
the toss for the ground. West has an uneven road, but is
still confident of winning. Betting is at present against
him, and may be quoted at about 5 to 4. Yesterday
mottling he started at the usual hour, in high spirits.

MURDER IN FRANCE.

The Court of Assize at Paris was occupied
for three days last week with an extraordinary
trial for murder.

A pock-butcher, named Man, living in the
Rue St. Jacques, had a wife who brought him a
dowry of 2,000 francs, with assured expectation
of property to the value of 10,000 francs at the
death of her father. This woman was not only
unable to read or write, but possessed so little
capacity, that she was only one remove from an
ideot. Bellan treated her ill, and inspired her
with such dread, that she durst not complain of
his ill-treatment. On the 28th of June (M. and
Madame Bellan living at that period in the Rue
des Recollets), she went, according to her custom,
to take a walk in the evening on the banks of
the Canal at St. Martin, which was near her
house. She was joined by her husband, and
they went to a wine-shop and supped together.
After supper they were proceeding along the
bank of the canal, when on a sudden Madame
Bellan fell into the water, by accident, according
to her husband's account. Her shrieks brought
three coachmen to the spot, who took her out of
the water, and to whom she declared that she
had been thrown in by her husband. Bellan also
came up, embraced his wife, expressed great joy
that the accident had not occasioned her death,
and offered the coachmen forty sous for their
trouble.

WINCHELSEA V. WAUCHOPE.

Mr. HORSE resumed his arguments in this part"
heard motion, which the Learned Counsel had 110
concluded when we left.

VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT.
The VICE-CHANCELLOR was engaged the whole
morning in his private room, hearing a motion re•
lating to a Ward of Court.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH.
ALLEGED LIBEL ON THE LORD 'CHANCELLOR.
THE KING V. FISHER AND OTHERS.
On the ATTORNEY-GENERAL being called OD by
Lord TENTERDEN, he requested the indulgence of
the Court for a few moments for Mr. Sergeal.
WILDE, who attended for one of the defendants 10

this case.
Mr. Sergeant WILDE then stated to the Court
thot this rule was obtained against three persott
Mr. John Fisher, Mr. Robert Alexander, out;
Mr. .John Matthew Gutch, for an alleged libel
on the Lord Chancellor, purporting to have
been published in a newspaper called the
Morning Journal. He informed the Court that
he appeared on behalf of the defendant (Mr'
Gutch), with a view to postpone the application to
make this rule absolute till Monday. He had an af-
fidavit, which stated that the defendant Gutch had
resided in the country, and had taken no part in the
management of the paper. lie, in consequence, ha
no participation in the publication of the alleged,
libel, which he had first heard of by the report el
this application in the newspapers. He had come
to town the instant he had heard of it, in order to
make inquiries respecting it. The Learned Se'
React believed that on Monday next he should be
able to show circumstances with respect to the de'
fendint Gutch, which would induce the Court to
think, whatever might be their opinion on the
merits with regard to other persons, and even if he
were considered legally liable, that his case we°
entitled to considerable distinction from the others.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL replied, that as the of'
fidsvit stated that Mr. Gutch was indisposed, he
would not oppose the enlargement of this rule; but
as this term was drawing to a close, the terms which
he must impose were, that in case this rule we°
made absolute against the defendant (Mr. Gutch) or
the other defendants, that fact should not prejudice
the right of the prosecutor to have the indictment
tried immediately after the present term. He un-
derstood, however, that his Learned Friend (Mr.
Barstow) was instructed to move for a similar exten-
sion of the rule for the other defendants.
Mr. BARSTOW observed, that he was not so hi;
structed on behalf of Mr. Alexander, but on behalf
of Mr. Fisher.

The ATTORNEY7MENERAL—Then as nobody aP'
peals on the part of Mr. Alexanderol must prepo!e
that the ride be made absolute against him, and 01
so doing, I must state, that it is not with any 01.!
to prejudice him that I now do so, but only that I
may have the opportimity of imposing the salve
terms upon him as on the other defendants.
The COURT then ordered the rule to be made
absolute with regard to Mr. Alexander, and to beet'
tended till Monday next with regard to the defend'
ants, Mr. Glitch and Mr. Fisher.
London, England, 1829-06-25

like all public men, to the tribunal of the public.
He has laid down the canon that all parishes
with a population equal to that of Bardney
ought to have double service performed in them
in the day, and he cannot enforce that rule in
one case, and depart from it in another, without
laying himself open to the charge of partiality.
I►n these days a public man, if he would be
esteemed, must show that his conduct is regu-
lated by some intelligible principle. It will not
be contended that the country have not an inte-
rest in the character of the heads of an Esta-
blishment of which the object is to preserve the
morality of the nation pure—an Establishment
which consumes so much of the income of the
kingdom. It is very well for a witty knave, like
Sir John Faistoi; to object to compulsion ;
but it will never do for a Bishop to say cava-

lierly, " I will not be compelled to act impar-
tially—if you, Mr. Wray, had not insiited on
my dealing out the same measure of justice to
(.)thers which I have dealt out to you, I might
have done so ; but nothing upon compulsion.

Loss OF LIFE IN BATTLE.—The following
is a general estimate of the losses sustained by the English
army, under the command of Lord WELLINGTON, from
the time of his appointment to it, in Portugal, until peace.
In the campaign of 1808, 69 officers and 1,015 men fell ;
1809, 243 officers and 4,688 men ; 1810, 78 officers and
624 men ; 1811, 429 officers and 7,384 men ; 1812, 816
officers and 11,030 men ; 1913, 1,025 officers and 14,966
mat ; 1814, 400 officers and 4,791 men ; 1815, 717 offi-
cers and 9,485 men. Total, 3,807 officers and 54,283
men killed or wounded. This total does not include the
Brunswickers, llanoverians, Portuguese, nor Spaniards.
It is remarkable, that at Salamanca the proportion of the
killed to the combatants was 1 to 90; at Vittoria, I to
74 • Waterloo, 1 to 40 ; while at the battle of the Nile,
the ratio was 1 to 96 ; at Trafalgar, I to 41 ; at Copen-
hagen, 1 to 32.

NEWSPAPER Dismercm.—We have again to express our great
obligations to the spirited Proprietors of The Sun," by whose
extraordinary exertions we received yesterday afternoon, a Second
Edition of that Newspaper by Express, containing a very full and
evidently a very accurate report of the important Debate in the
House of Lords on Thursday night, on the second reading of the
Roman Catholic Relief Bill, up to the time of their Lordships' ad-
journment, half-past one o'clock yesterday (Friday) morning.

(From the Warwick General Advertiser of Saturday, April 4.)
THE SUN.—We feel a peculiar pleasure in acknowledging the
great obligations we are under to the spirited Proprietary of " The
Sun," not only on this but upon many other occasions. The De-
bate in the Lords, on the Catholic Relief Bill, was not adjourned
till past one on Friday morning; it was printed in " The Sun," at
considerable length, sent down to Birmingham, by Express, and
brought to us a distance of more than 120 miles, by the up-Mail,
at seven the same evening. Labour and expence, which are in-
surmountable barriers to others, are but stimulants to their exer-
tions.—The same Paper was received at Birmingham about one
o'clock.
London, England, 1829-04-17

SILK TRADE.

Mr. COURTENAY brought in a Bill to irn
pose certain duties upon the importation of Silk
Goods, and to allow a drawback upon the exporta-
tion thereof.

Mr. FYLER said, he should give no opposition
to the Bill in this stage. He was only anxious now
that it should be printed, in order to afford the
country an opportunity of knowing its details; and
he should certainly hereafter give all the opposition
in his power to the principle of this Bill.
The Bill was read a first time, and it was ordered
to be read a second time upon Tuesday, the 28th of
April, and to be printed.
The other Orders of the Day were then disposed
of, awl the House adjourned at Half-past Six o'clock
to Tuesday se'nnight, the 28th of April.

WHIST EXTRAORDINARY.

A game at whist was played a few evenings ago, at
Brampton, the singularity of which is worth recording :
The winners scored eight by honours in the first and
second deals, losing the odd trick each deal ; the third deal
they gained the odd trick, the honours divided ; tip& fourth,
fifth, and sixth deals, they held four by honours each deal
(losing the odd trick the fourth and fifth, and gaining the
sixth deal), making twenty by honours held by one party
in one game before they could win it, although good
players.—tLeamington Spa Courier.

A meeting of Noblemen and Gentlemen of
Ireland took place yesterday at the Union Hotel, Cockspur-
street, his Grace the Duke of LEINSTER in the chair, for
the purpose of considering the propriety of convening a
public meeting to take the necessary steps for erecting a
statue in Dublin to his Grace the Duke of WELLINGTON,
to commemorate his late measure of relief to his Ma-
jesty's Roman Cath&ic subjects, when it was resolved to
call such a meeting at the London Tavern on the 2d of
May. The Marquis :of DOWNSIIIRE and several other
peers and Com Owners were present, as well as Mr.
O'CONNELL. Mr. PIERSE MAHONY undertook all the
necessary arrangements for carrying into effect the inten-
tions of the meeting. Times.

EXPLOSION OF POWDER MILLS.--7,4Ve

some miles off) of the corning-house of Ramhurst Powder
Mills, situated about two miles from Tunbridge Town,

employed at the time, were killed on the spot. One of
the name of WALKER, has left a wife and six children—,

THE FANCY.

DROWN AND DOBELI, FOR 206/. A SIDE.—The second
deposit in the above match was to have been made good
last night, at Spring's, the Castle Tavern, Holborn. At
10 o'clock the stakeholder informed the company present
that he bad new the pleasure to announce to them that
Brown's money for the second deposit was duly posted in
his bands, and observed at the same time, that it gave him
pain to be under the necessity of acquainting them that
Dobell had, by the advice of his friends, found himself
compelled, on account of his present bad state of health, to
decline the fight, and to submit to a forfeiture of the 101.
he had already staked at the first deposit (which was
claimed accordingly on the part of Brown, who was en-
titled thereto according to the articles); but he still hoped
the match would be renewed as 80011 as Dobell recovered
his health, and that they would be then gratified by a fair
and jolly fight between the parties.
DEAF BURKE AND FFUMAIJRICE, FOR 251. A SIDE.—
A deposit of one sovereign a side bad been put down
previously wtween these parties, and Reuben Martin now
came forward to malie good the remaining V. for Burke,
whilst the backers of Fitzufaurice paid up his proportion,
to make giod the first deposit of 51. on both sides. The
principals eilig both present, retired then to a private room
with the stakeholder to draw up. and execute the articles
of agreement.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

TATTERSALL'S.

The settling on the last week's races occupied a very
considerable portion of the afternoon, and some tolerably
large sums passed. The losses on the Riddlesworth and
Claret Stakes were serious ; the last- named race was much
talked of, and Chiffney's jockeyship highly praised; so
certain was he of the race, when at the Duke's Stand,
and so exactly had he calculated the capabilities of hie own
and the other horses, that seeing his brother there, he ex-
claimed triumphantly, "All right, Will—l have it safe
enough." He has since been offered 3000 guineas for
Zinganee, but we have heard that circumstances prevent
the sale of the horse.—The betting yesterday would imply
that Lord Sligo's horses are improving, as they were both
backed to a considerable amount ; so were all the princi-
pal favourites. The odds closed thus :

DERBY.
4to 1 agst Matron (taken) 15 to 1 agst Will-o'-the-WisP.
6 to 1 agst Morris Dancer 18 to 1 agst Windrush
Bto 1 agst Camel (9 taken) 22 to 1 agst Post Obit

7 to 1 agst Varna 20 to 1 agst Augusta
20 to 1 aget Seraph.
Many of the above come out next week in the 2000
and 1000 Guinea Stakes and the Newmarket Stakes.
The respective favourites are Patron, Green Mantle, Pau-
line, Morris Dancer, and Clotilde, but there were no de-
finite odds.
