[Morning Chronicle.]
THE QUEEN.
It has been the constant observation of the Pub-
lic, that the Bulletins and Circulars from Kew
have given very imperfect notices of the nature
or progress of her Majesty's complaint. While
tumour stated, from time to time, the private
opinion of the Physicians, that the Royal Sufferer
was fast approachi-ng the universal doom—and
that the cerninty of a general mourning put a
stop to all other manufacturos but that ot articles
in black, it was observed that no Prayers were
offered np to the Almighty in Our Churches for
her recovery, nor was it understood that site had
desired the spiritual consolation of any distin-
guished Divine. Indeed, it was understood that
on-n confidence in her strength Was at va-
riance with the opinion of her Physicians. We
have once or twice staled circunt,tances in her
case, that came to our knowledge, (Mkt tog essen-
tially front the account of the Court Reporter. In
like manlier we now feel it our ditty to state, that
on Saturday evening last her Majesty felt consi-
derable temporary relief by a small rupture of the
sk,n in both ankles, from which there has been
since a considerable effusion ot water. It was not
occasioned by any puncture, hot the effort of na-
ture-.---,nd, as we have stated, it had the effect of
affording temporary relict; but it too frequently
naiiiiriis 'I,IIA eveiCh Cirliks in the shin of a dropsi-
cal patient produce symptoms of more speedy
termination than the disease itself. ‘Ve fear that
her Majesty's malady is come to that stage when
the m4ist loyal, as well as filial. tenderness, may
pray for relief from her sti&ring:—Her Majesty
received, the week before last, a large packet of
dispatches from the Duchess of Homburg, and
ire itaderstand that but a few days ego she gave
orders to Iser silversmith to manufacture a sump-
tuous set of plate for a dejeune, together with se-'
veral articles of silk, as'preseuts fur bee favourite
Daughter.

Sometime ago we gave an account of the hos-
tilities which had taken place between, t‘vo Of the
petty Sovereigns of Germany, the Plince of
Schaumburg Lippe and of Lippe Detmold, con-
trary to the rovisions of the Act of Federation.
The Diet have thought this a favourable oppor-
tunity for a display of vigour, and, with the ex-
ception of the Plenipotentiaries of Bavaria, SaX-
nny, and the Electorate of Hesse, it passed sen-
tence against 'Lippe Detmold. Bavaria objected
to the Decree of the Diet, as resembling a judi-
dal sentence,.the meaning, of which is, that the
Diet, as a Body, has no authori,y whatever—
Saxony wkhed some mitigation in the expression
of the Decree ; and Hesse protested against the
Act, in which it disclaimed all participation.—
Such is the Grand Federal Assembly of the Ger-
mans, which, how any persons in their senses
could ever.think good for any thing„ is to us in-
comprehensible.

1101.F.N1 QUIS DIOERE FAI.SUM AUDEAT ?

LONDON,
MONDAY, AUGUST 31, 1815.

It is with no common feeling of pleasure we

inform our Readers, that we have received the

most satisfactory intelligence this day respecting

he state of affairs at Manchester. The Com-

wittee of refractory Spinners has broken up,

owing to the zeal, vigour, and discretion of the

Magistrates, who have taken five persons into

custody. Bail to the amount of 2001. was re-

quired for their security, but was not obtained.

Yesterday and this morning we received the
Paris Papers of Thursday and Friday last.—Those
of the former day are chiefly filled with further
details of the celebration of St. Louts.
From Berlin it is stated, that an eminent phy-
sician there, M. BIEsKE, set out on the 13,11 in-
stant for Carlsbad, to attend Prince BLUCHER,
who was considered seriously ill.

One of the Journals quotes the prophecies of Ma-
dame Da KRUDENER, stating that the year 1819
is to be rendered remarkable by the occurrence of
London, England, 1818-08-31

great events;

An article, dated from Into, the 12th inst. re-
iterates the hope that the Congress at Aix-la-
Chapelle will take into consideration the measures
necessary to put an end to the contest between
Spain and the Independents in South America.—
It is added, that ►he sailing of the expedition from
Cadiz will be delayed till the decision of the Al-
lied Powers upon this subject is known.—The
same account mentions, that a few days previous
an Independent privateer had captured a large
merchant vessel, within sight of Saint Sebastian,
and that two other privateers were cruizing with-
in sight of Bilbao.
It is said, that after the breaking up of the Con-
gress, the Austrian and Prussian Ministers, the
Prince de METTERNICH and de HARDENBERG,
will proceed to Frankfort, and remain there some
time, in order to arrange the affairs of the Ger-
manic Confederatimh

The following are extracts from the Journals
of Friday
" PARIS, AUG. 28.—The Duke of Wellington
had the honour yesterday of paying his respects
to the King. The approaching departure of his
Grace is spoken of.
" The Duke of Saxe Coburg is expected every
day at Rouen ; he travels in France under the
title of the Count de lienneberg.

" The celebrated Mrs. Mary Ann Clarke and
her family have arrived at Havre.
" The Duke of Wellington will, it is said by
some, set out this day for Cambray.
" The Princess de Montmorency died on Tues-
day last at Saint Germain-en-Laye, aged 85.

THE THEATRE'.

ENGLISH OPERA-HOUSE.—A new piece, of two
acts, entitled Amateurs and Actors,was represented
on Saturday last at this Theatre, stated in the
play-bills as " not taken from the French." The
plot is easily detailed : Dulcet (I)EARmAN), a
young man, who is a theatrical amateur, is in love
with Miss Hardacre (Miss LOVE), and contrives
to make her elope with him from her guardian,
Elderberry (BARTLey), who follows diem to the
home of the theatrical manager, Bustle (HARLEY),
who is to bring them On the stage. Elderberry
having traced the fugitives to this house, which
is frequetued by.ffing,a strolling actor (WRENct-1),
and his wife (Mrs. PINc(TT), who had separate''
from him, conceives that he is in a receptacle for
mad persons. The conduct of the Manager and
the Performers is so new to Elderberry, that he
is confirmed in his suspicions. Many ludicrous
and wNinisical incidents arise from this mistake.
At length, as usual, the Guardian is reconciled,
and the Lovers made happy. In the course of
the piece many allusions are made to the manage-
ment of Drury-lane Theatre, and some to the
Mlnagers, which appeared to be fully understood
by tire audience. HARLEY displayed Isis imitative
powers will) much success, particularly in an imi-
tation of MATHews, who was present in the side
boxes, and appeared to take it in good part.—
WiteNct-t also gave an imitation of KEAN, in drop-
ping suddenly front the salemn to the familiar in
the same sentence. Both of these imitations were
well received, and so was the farce altogether,
which is very creditable to the talents of its re-'
puted author, Mr. PEAKE, it'll.; and which was
announced for repetition, with the full consent of
the audience, by HARLEY, in the following novel
manner

.I..IDIFS and GENTS. our Farce is o'er,
Your kindness is intreatuth—
On Monday night, if you'll permit,
Farce will be repeated.
The Farce was throughout well supported by
all the Performers.

The following are the new performers engage,
Ott Covent GArtlen

Tragedy.—Mrs. Yates and Miss Somerville ;
the f,utner is said to resemble in voice, form, and
dignity, her great predecessor of the same name;
and M'ss Somerville has lind much practice and
experience at Liverpool, Bath, Birmingham, and
Cheltenham.

Iu
Opera.—Mrs. Dickons, who has had great
success both in France and Italy ; Mr. Hunt,
whose voice is said to be similar to l uclerlon's ;
Mr. Davies, a pupil of Lanza; and Mr. Pyne, late
of Drorv-lane.

Comedy —Mrs C. Kemble; Mrs. Hill, of
Bath ; and Mr. W. Farren, the representative of
Sir Peter Teazle, Lord Ogleby, and others of the
late King's parts, from Dublin. These, with
such established favourites as Miss O'Neill, Miss
Stephens, Miss Brunton, Mrs. Faucit, Miss Foote,

This gay Lord is another of those who would hare been

I have never observed any thincg in the character of this
Nobleman but. what is prOOr and agreeable. He has been
employed in posts of the first importance, wherein he has dis-
charged his.duty; and the honours he possesses are well-de-
served. He pursues no modern vices *, is regular in himself
and family, and very attentive' to all the decorums and pro-
prieties-of life. How then is it, that he is an object of such
general disapprobation ? and from whence does it arise that
be has never possessed a moment of popular esteem? He is
moderate in politics, the mild Ftiend of Government, and
hears himself with good manners to all. He has must cer-
tainly been a prosperous man, and envy Will follow prosperity
as well as merit. He is careful for the welfare and interests
of his family, and, considering the. number of his children,
his anxiety in making a provision for them is an addition to
his character.—His second son, I think., should have been
the of the —, both from his abilities and situation,
instead of the eldest. However, as the ——n pre-
ter.ed the present arrangement, I oiade no objection ; for I
really esteem him, and it is us fault of mine that be is not a
Marquis.

lam told that this noble LI,- understands the scavoir
vivre, as it,relates to the Table, better than any Mtn in the
Kingdom ; and that his own cook acknowledges the superior
palate of his noble Master. His Grace's Epicurean Frtends
profit, I doubt not, by his knowledge; and his gout may
trace its original, or, at least, its increase and violence, to his
skill in the culinary science The social disposition always
discovers something amiable; in whatever shape it may ap7
;war; and I believe this Nobleman to be a worthy character,
and that,he,possesses very friendly dispositions.

THE PENITENTIARY SYSTEM IN THE UNITED

STATES.

This System has been established in the United
States of America longer than in any other coon-
try. The following document throws more light
on the result than any other publication which we
have seen. We have subjoined an account, ex•
tracted front papers laid before Parliament, of the
• expenses of the General Penitentiary established
at Milbank, near London, by which it appeals,
that each person confined there costs the commu-
nity nearly forty pounds sterling per annum, .in
addition to the amount of his earnings, and with-
out counting the capital employed in buildings
and repairs. If it were true, as asserted in the
American Report, that the Penitentiary System
has a tendency to increase the number of offend-
ers, it would, in a pecuniary point of view, be-
come an intolerable burden to the nation, reduc-
ing the honest and industrious to poverty, ex-
posing them also to become offenders, and there-
by increase, in a rapid proportion, the mischiefs
of the system —We have heard that this system
has some advocates in this country. We should
he glad to see them answer, satisfactorily, the
American Report and subjoined statement.

[The Times.]

Accounts from Aix-la-Chapelle, of Monday
last, mention the arrival of the Duc d'Angouleme
in the afternoon of the same day. The ostensible
motive of his Royal Highness's visit to Congress
was to return the compliment of a similar nature
paid by their Imperial and Royal Majesties to the
King of France, On the late occasion. Mr. Baring
reached Aix-la-Chapelle the night before the
Due d'Angouleme arrived there ; and on Mon-
day a conference was held at the house of
Prince Hardenberg, on the subject of the
proposition made by France for an extension of
the term originally agreed upon for the discharge
of her pecuniary obligations. It was reported at
the date of our letters, that France required a
much longer time than had been already intimat-
ed ; a request, in which it was supposed that
Prussia would not acquiesce without reluctance.

The Private Letters from Paris, d!rted Monday,
report the closing price of the French funds
on that day at 69. 10. and that the;market was
far from being considered in an improving state.
A great sensation had, been produced by the fai-
lure of one of the principal speculators, who
was much relied on, and considered of high
respectability, but had proved unable to ful-
fil his engagements. The assistance afforded
the holders of the rentes, it appears, had not proved
so effectual as was expected : compulsory sales
were still very numerous, and produced a corres-
ponding effect on the market —(lbid.)

meeting. He had been assured, that for the last
month they had not taken, on the average, 1001.
per night. They ought to know whether this
•1 report was well founded, and therefore he pro-
posed to send for the Treasurer.
Several Gentlemen here obser,—.d, that they had
not the power of commanding j attendance of
the Treasurer—that it might be considered indel
licate in them to question, him—anal that it has
not to he expected he wovld:give them tin answer.
Mr. RoBINs knew very well he could not com-
mand the attendance of the Treasurer. He only
proposed to request him to wait on them. The
time for standing about delicacy was past ; the
Sub-Committee had not shown much delicacy
towards the New Renters, and plain questions-
must now be put, and plain answers to them üb-
rained. Of the Treasurer he expected an answer
as a matter of courtesy, and if it were refused, he
should be inclined to demand it as a matter of
right. He moved that Mr. Peake and Mr. Dunn,
the Treasurer awl Deputy Treasurer, should be
requested to attend the Meeting, to give such ex-
planation respecting the finances of the Theatre,
as they, consistently with their duty, could afford.
—The motion was agfeed to.
While the Meeting waited for the attendance of
the treasurer, a discussion took place on the ques-
tions which it might be proper to ask.
Mr. RoBINs said, his object was merely to as-
certain whether the receipts of the Theatre were
sufficient to cover its expenditure, and a question
to that effect was prepared in writing.
When the Gentlemen sent for made their ap-
pearance, it was read to the treasurer.
Mr. PEAK?. said, he did not feel at liberty to
answer the question.

Mr. ROBINS inquired on whit ground he de-
clined giving an answer ?

Mr. PEAKE replied, it did not appear to him a
question proper to he put to a person in his
situa-
tion. If it were put to those under whom he
acted, he should be happy to give theMeCting
any information which the Sub-Committee might
direct then servant to lay before the New Renters.
He was then told by the CHAIRMAN his attend-
ance was no longer necessary.
Some further conversation took place, and se-
veral resolutions -Were adopted, which went to
give the Trustees additional powers to act for the
benefit of their constituents. They were directed
to apply to the Sub-Committee, for information
relative to the finances of the concern, and it was
determined that another Meeting of the New
Itenteis ought to take place in the course of the
next two months.

A resolution was come to, directing all future
dividends to be paid to the New Renters' trustees,
as some sums of money, for the payment of which
provision had been made, were now withheld from
those who had not applied early for them, in con-
sequence of such monies having been paid into
the treasury of the Theatre.
To support these proceedings, a general sub-
scription of one pound from each Renter was re-
solved upon ; more than fifty pounds were in-
stantly subscribed ; and thanks having been voted
to the Chairman, the Meeting broke up.

," The Prince Regent did not visit the Palace
last night ; but a messenger arrived from Carlton
House, late at night, by whom a full report of
the state of the Queen was sent to his Royal
Highness,
" As the night advanced, all the most distress-

developed themselves with more than ordinary
malevolence, and the Royal Sufferer passed an-
other sleepless night.
" Towards noon her Majesty was more com-

remained throughout the rest of the day, to all
appearance, totally unconscious.
" The Prince Regent is just arrived, and is
giving audience to Sir F. Miltuan. His Royal

for his return to Carlton House at 11 o'clock."

WATCHMAKEftS.
LOrd OiSULSTON presented a, petition from the
Clock and L'Vatchmakers of the County of Ber-
wick, praying that the Tax if 41. Its. imposed
on dealers in plaie might not fre exacted from
them.
After sonie conversation on the subject of this
petition.
Mr. BROUGHAM expressed his 'slit-prize that no
notice had been taken by Ministers of the many
.complaints to which the attetiipt to exact this T'ax
had given rise. Two or. threep.e6tions had been
presented last year on the same subject. There
was no proportion between the value of the deal-
ings Of country Watchmakers and this heavy Tax.
Many of them might not sell a single watch in a
twelvemonth. This was but another instance of
Ministers whipping up old Taxes, when they
were ashamed to conic before the House to demand
new Taxes.

Mr. LAUSHINGTON said, that Government were
not to blame for enforcing a tax that existed by
law before they entered into office. It was im-
possible in imposing such taxes as the present, to
make a graduated scale to meet such cases as the
Hon. Member represented to be grievances.
Mr. linntic HAM Culltetided it was evident, from
what passed ►wen the law imposing a duty on
dealers in plate was enacted, that Mr. l'itt never
bad it in contemplation to apply this tax to watch-
makers, for lie expressly stated, that it would be
necessary that some small tax should also be im-
posed on them.
Mr. LoNo contended that Government could
only look to•the laws, and not to the intentions
of thn,e who proposed theta.
Mr. MONEY presented a Nrti•ion front Welling-
ton, in the County of Salop, against the practice
of emiloying Climbing Boys.

APPREHENSION OF HUSSEY.

This man, the supposed murderer of Mr.
BIRD and his Housekeeper, was apprehended,
as we stated yesterday, on Wednesday, at a farm,
near Woodstock, in Oxfordshire. While in de-
tention there he took an opportunity to throw
away a ring and a watch, but as it was suspect-
ed that he had concealed something, the place
into which he threw it was searched, and the
ring and the watch were found, He was brought
to town yesterday evening, and was sent front
Bow-street immediately to tb.e I-louse of Cor-
rection, iu Cold Bath-fields. We understand
that another ring was found in one of his boots.
The examination at Bow-street was a very short
one; no witnesses were in attendance, and the
committal is till Thursday next. It was about
five that Hussey was brought up. His answers to
the few questions asked him consisted in a denial
of his guilt, and an assertion that he found the
watch and rings. It was Vickery who stripped
him, and founil the second ring. A publican or
kVoodstock, who is also a constable, knew Hits•
sey from the description given by an Officer, who
was searching for him. The publican, on look-
ing for him in the town, saw him conic out of a
public-house, and go towards the fields ; he was
pursued, and taken in a farm-yard, near the town.

FURTHER PARTICULAttS.—PreViOnS to Hussey.*
being apprehended, he offered a note to be changed,
and on the landlord asking hint his name, he told
hint that it was Charles Hussey, which name in-
stantly entered into the mind of the landlord that
he must be tl►e supposed murderer of Mr. Bird
and his-Housekeeper, when a constable was sent
for, and lie was diet) secured, and both came with
Hussey to town. During the whole of the journey
lie was extremelystillen; and spoke but little. On his
being searched, some duplicates were found on hint,
from which it appeared, that- he had pledged part
of the property supposed to belong to Mr. Bird,
at a pawn-broker's in Tottenham Court-road. On
Hussey being asked how he became possessed of
the property, he said that he observed a person to
throw a bundle over the back part of the prem.ses
of Mr. Bird, which l►e picked up ; the property
which Ile bad pawned was pledged in the name
of Charles Hussey. A ring was also found se-
creted in One of his boots.

ENGLISH OPERA;

Mr. MATnEws, driven from .the Patent Thea-
tre, or disgusted into resignation, last night ap-
peared at this Theatre with a new entertainment
of his Own. The talents, the humour, and the
versatility of this Actor naturally excited general
curiosity, and the house, as might be expected,
was entirely hill. We cannot enter into a de-
scription of his whimsiCal and most diverting Olio,
but we fan assure the public, that the chief•dan-
ger to..which they will be exposed is that of in-
juring their riible.museles by an uninterrupted ex-
Mr. MATHhws opened the business by
shortly stating his attachment to the regular
drama, and to SuAkSPEARE, and observing among
other reasons for quitting it, that he wished to
avoid the suspicion of alluding to pat ticolar indi-
viduals in his representation of the peculiarities
of several bodies, as characters had been written
for hint chiefly to give scope to his mimetic powers,
and ae more might be written for hint with the
same view, he was desirous of avoiding the sits-
picion of being merely a mimic. Of this Su-Pi-
don, however, lie need not be apprehensive, as
it is well known that he is one of our best Comic
Actors, and in that capacity would have done
honour to the Stage at uny period within our long
experience. Mr. MN THEWS then proceeded to en-
ter tainitis audience with songs, imitations, &e. &c.
the whole constituting a most facetious miscel-
lany, which kept the audience •in a continual
,laugh from the beginning to the end. In the
course of his entertainment, he had same shrewd
hits at the public Journals, and THE SUN did not
escape a sarcastic lash on being an -Evening Paper.
The whole,- however, of these strictures were so
jocose, that he must be anvils:l and splenetic in-
deed who could be-offended, or who did not join.
the laugh. Altogether, the public have very sel-
dom had an Opportunity of witnessing so agree-
able a melange; certainly never from an individual,
and its general merit is likely to be so attractive,
that it is perfectly needless for us to express our
hearty wishes for his success.
