CITY MARKETS--(TWO O'CLOCK.)

The recent failures in the SUGAR, trade have tended to
shake confidence to a considerable extent, and in the Colo-
nial Markets this morning an indisposition was felt to do
business. The general inquiry was, wEether any more
houses had been compelled to suspend their payments ;
but as far as can be learned, no fresh disasters were made
public up to the middle of the day. The delivery of Plan-
tation Sugars from the West India Docks last week was
about 3,000 casks, but as there were landed above 7,600
hhds., the stock has been increased to 56,204 hhds. and
4,053 tees. Prices of Sugars this morning are nominally
lower. A parcel of Mauritius was offered to-day at 325.,
which a short time since cost 38s. per cwt.
Ruar.—Prices'Eontinue as last quoted, although the de-
mand for home consumption and exportation is pretty ex-
tensive. For the former 404 puns. and 23 !aids., and for
the latter 340 puns. and 29 hhds., were delivered last week.
The stock yesterday was 28,279 puns. and 2,146 }Aids.
The transactions in COFFEE, as indeed in all Colonials,
have been suspended, or nearly so, by the failures noticed
above. Coffee may be quoted from 2.. to 3s. per cwt.
lower than the highest prices lately obtained.
In SPICES there is scarcely any thing doing, the result
of the large sales next week being awaited for before specu-
lation is indulged in.
Oie.s.—There are no further advices from the fisheries.
Oils are rather dull at the former prices.
Corrosr.—The large sales of Surat and other Cottons
announced for the latter end of the week rather check
business. In prices there is no variation of consequence to
be noticed ; they are firm, however, on account of the
unfavourable nature of the intelligence respecting the crops
in America.
Tate TEA TRADE.....A few breaks of Congou are in de-
mand, at about id. per lb. profit, which is the only altera-
tion since the sale. The clearing lately has been very
large. The declaration for the December sale of Teas is
expected to be issued to-morrow.
RUSSIAN PRODUCE..-+The delivery of Tallow last week
was 2,568 casks. The stock has been increased to 19,296
casks, against 24,269 casks, the stock at the corresponding
period of last year. The stock of 'fallow is expected to
be much encreased on the final settlement of the war in

COVENT-GARDEN THEATRE.

That in the depths of despair there is yet hope/
was never more evinced than in the auspicious open'
ing of Covent-garden Theatre last flight. The
storms of adversity had overcast, and nearly over'
whelmed a scene more fraught with joyous reook
lections than almost any other place of public anifOr
ment. But as Covent-garden owed so much already
to the family of the KEsrous, we trust that it vi"
yet owe much more, for the sunshine of prosperitf
has again burst forth with beams of promise as ollegrii
ing as unexpected. Mr. C. KEMBLE has come forgOr
with a devotion which the lovers of the Drama
not too highly appreciate. But for him, the fallen
tunes of the theatre would have sunk never to 11:-,
again. He has, individually, cast his all upon °it'
success of an undertaking, from the hazard of wbic
more prudent, but less generous people would 115',''

others hesitate to adventure, may succeed in 1'1,16

the prosperity of the Drama as conducive 1
our national character—and that Mr. CHAO'S:

cordial—the enthusiastic—the universal and long;
continued welcome with which he was cheered 06
night. It was the proud expression of true Eogliss
feeling, worthily bestowed, and appreciated b)
heart too full for utterance.
In order to insure success, so far as persofi
exertion and personal sacrifice can go, Mrs. CND'
KEMBLE has returned to the stage, and her &or'

I (From the Morning Chronicle.)
The success of Miss F. KEMBLE was most decided ; we
never witnessed a'dOut of a more gratifying description.
She carne forward under many advantages of parentage,
relationship, and education, and we should not have been
surprised if we had found her an exceedingly Well-taught
young lady, with all the mechanical parts of her profession
thoroughly got by heart, and going through her part with
as touch eclat as could be obtained by good instruction.
We are happy to add, that we found her much more ; and
that she gave the strongest indications of original talents,
Which, we have no doubt, will raise her to great eminence
the profession she has chosen. We do not pretend to
LI y that she is a perfect actress in the outset. We should
be sorry if she were so, as it would indicate that sort of
dramatic precociousness which, in nearly all instances, has
teLnlioated in disappointment. We therefore rejoiced that
she had faults : they were faults which seemed in some sort
j to arise from those very abilities by the display of which
she, is to confirm her reputation. She is very young, but
her Person is beautifully symmetrical—
" In growth a woman, tho' in years a child."
symmetrical—
Ilex stature is about the middle size, and her face with
much snore expression than ordinarily accompanies such
regularity of features. Her complexion is decidedly dark;
and at she were a dress of white satin, simply but ele-
gantly made, it was not set off to advantage. Not a few
in the house fancied they saw in her a strong resemblance
to her aunt, but we could not discover it : once or twice,
indeed, her action and attitude reminded us of Mrs. SID-
, n°Ns, particularly when she replied " Amen !" to the
Nurse's recommendation that she should give up Romeo
for Paris. Her voice is unquestionably like that of her
mother; it is full, clear, musical, and capable of delicate
hatomation. The error into which she was most prone to
fall was not rendering Juliet sufficiently innocent and
girlish ; but of course this objection only applies to the
earlier scenes : she seemed too much impressed with the
notion that she was performing tragedy, and that
.it was
therefore necessary to be stately and dignified. In the
balcony scene she only erred once in this respect, but all
the test denoted that simplicity of heart which, knowing
no guile, suspected none. Her action in this scene
Sod others was graceful and unrestrained, but perhaps
a little superabundant. The interview with the Nurse
had the additional recommendation, that it trusted to
it
171 f without any stage trickery, such as is resorted to
nearly all the Juliets we ever saw—Miss O'NEIL
not excepted—of dropping at once on the knees,
turning
the back on the audience, and looking up in
the old woman's face. One of the most difficult parts of
elPlay is a subsequent scene, when Juliet imagines that
a °Theo, and not Tybalt, is dead. She is obliged to stand
i„„:ng the whole time she is receiving the dreadful tidings,
e have often wondered that a chair or a sofa is not
itnutdrodWu_
mit 'et! for her relief. Miss F. KEMBLE, with greatthusi et/t' assumed the air of petrifaction at the news, and
twall4 sotne degree escaped from the difficulty. The
nio„°wing of the sleeping draught is always, in our opi-
sh: overacted, especially the descriptive part of the
cerl h, where it begins, " As in a vault, an ancient re-
el:tin*" She did not avoid this fault, and perhaps she

It was

`a had little or nothing to do ; but the sound of her
peeo„ which is just as sweet as ever, revived a thousand

eyebrows and eyelashes, which are extremely handsome,
give them a power of expression admirably adapted for the
stage. Her voice is flexible, and of considerable volume,
and her utterance so perfectly distinct that her lower tones
are always audible and effective. On her first entrance
she seemed to feel very sensibly the embarrassment of the
new and overwhelming task she had undertaken. She ran
to her mother's arms with a sort of instinctive impulse,
and almost immediately recovered her composure. From
that time, although there was occasionally something
like timidity in her manner, there was not the slightest
portion of awkwardness, or even of that want of
sell-possession which might have been well pardoned
in so yonng an actress. Her first scene with Romeo
was very delicately and intelligently acted. In the garden
scene, she gave the exquisite poetry of the part with a most
innocent gracefulness, and acted quite as well as she spoke.
The scene with the Nurse was full of delightful simplicity ;
and here the easy portion of the part, that which makes it
a favourite with young actresses, ends. The girlish timi-
dity which characterises Juliet before the influence of the
" inauspicious stars" which shape the destiny of her leve is
fully felt, then gives way to the irresistible sway of the
raaater-spirit that domineers over her soul. In the scenes
which ensue, when a more powerful and agitating passion
is to he expressed, and where the real strength of the actress
is tried, Miss KEMBLE rose with the part. The scene in
which the Nurse communicates to her all the horror of her
situation— Tybalt slain, and Romeo banished—was acted
with great force ; and the manner in which she broke off
the conversation, when the weak-witted old woman ad-
vises her to marry Paris, was marked by a natural dignity
of look and gesture, which made it one of the most striking
and felicitous parts of the performance. The " Amen" to the
Nurse's imprecation on herself, and the passage beginning—
" Well, thou bast comforted me marvellous much,"
were among the most certain indications she gave of pos-
sessing the true qualities for success. She acted that ex-
tremely difficult scene in which the soliloquy before she
swallows the Friar's potion occurs with extraordinary
energy, and in the last scene she was no less excellent.—
Upon the whole, we do not remember to have ever seen a
more triumphant debut. That Miss KEMBLE has been
Well and carefully instructed, as of coui se she would be, is
clear; but it is no less clear that she possesses qualifica-
tions which instruction could not create, although it can
bring them to perfection. We shall have probably many
future opportunities of returning to the subject, and unless
that should happen in this case, which never did in any
other, that an actress whose first essay has been so excel-
lent shall prove less so on future occasions, it may be rea-
sonably expected that Miss KEstar.E will prove a great ac-
quisition to the dramatic strength of this theatre, and that,
too, in a line in which it has of late been remarkably defi-
cient. Mrs. C. KEMBLE played Lady Capulet. The
part has been thought to be nothing, because it has com-
monly fallen into the hands of those who have made no-
thing of it. Those who have seen it played by such an
actress as this, may be said to have seen it acted for the
first time. Mr. C. KEMBLE appeared for the first time
as Msrcutio, and played it admirably. The Queen Mob
speech was given with a humour and whimsicality that
Were by so much the more agreeable that they were free
from the gross buffoonery and exaggeration with which
some actors, whom we " have heard others praise, and
that highly," have interlarded it. The whole character
was very ably conceived,—mirthful and manly, and with-
out the slightest tinge of Lurd Foppinyton in it. Mr.
Warms: appeared as Friar Lawrence, and gained more
credit by the sensible and clever manner in which he exe-
cuted this part, which has been mistakenly thought to be
an inferior one, than he has in some more distinguished
characters. The play was powerfully and effectively acted,
and was loudly applauded throughout.

good ; the words did not rattle out of hia meuth as if he
knew nothing of their meaning and value, and when he
tripped once in his deli►-ery, he recovered himself with
astonishing adroitness. A modern critic, and the best of
the race, has well said that when JONES plays Mercutio,
Sum:sr-EA IRE'S words drops from his lips like a shower of
bad sixpences.

(From the Morning Post. )

The name of KEMBLE was exercised with magic-like
effect at this Theatre last night. Plunged into difficulties
almost overwhelming, Mr. CHARLES KEMBLE exerted his
best strength and influence : his wife returned to the stage,
his daughter made her debut, and a brilliant and overflow-
ing audience was the consequence. This was precisely as
every friend of the Drama must have wished. The name
of a family which has for half a century contributed so
largely, and with so much distinction and honour, to the
most rational and intellectual of our amusements, ought not
to be u'ed in vain, or to be heard without cheering and
liberal encouragement. On this occasion it met with en-
thusiastic support, anti those who anticipated a display of
hereditary genius were happily confirmed in their kindly
hopes. 'I hat the difficulties of the Theatre have been most
alarming there can be no question, but however desperate
they may have been in their character, or however dis•
tressing to the Managers, we can hardly help rejoicing in
their occurrence, since they have been the immediate cause
of giving to the stage another KEMBLE, and one too who
promises to enhance rather than to depreciate the unrivalled
reputation of her family. With the debut of Miss FANNY
KEMBLE too, we are inclined to date the disappearance of
the distresses of the Theatre, and therefore we shall make
no further mention of them, but content ourselves with
expressing a hope that that young lady's introduction
to the stage will only be one of many acts of good
judgment on the part of the Manager. Miss KEM-
BLE in stature is like her mother, being rather
under than over the middle size ; but she possibly may
not yet have completed her growth, being, as we are
informed, and as she really appears, not more than eighteen.
Her form, however, is rich in beauties. 'The contour of
her throat, neck, and head, reminded us forcibly of Mrs.
Sthnorts : and her arms have that roundness and capability
of majestic action in which her aunt was so entirely un-
rivalled. In her countenance Miss KEMBLE partakes more
of the beauties of Mrs. SIDDONS and the expression of
JOHN KEMBLE, than she does of the features of her father
or mother. Her brow is like that of all the KEMBLES—
Iofty and full of deep expression ; her eye is finely placed,
dark and powerful; her nose is sufficiently prominent to
give a good profile, and to add to the effect of the other
features ; and her mouth has much of the character of that
of her great predecessor, Mrs. StnnoNs, being capable of
expressing tenderness, scorn, and triumph, in all their
depth, bitterness, anti lofty joy. The general character
of her face is dignity; it is plainly and beautifully traced, al-
though she has hardly yet attained the state of womanhool
Her voice is equal to every demand that even Tragedy can
make. It is powerful, rich, and has great variety. It
has none of the poverty of her uncle's in particular pas-•
sages, and little of the monotony of her aunt's in level
speaking. It often resembles her mother's in sweetness,
and is capable of declamation without any of the evidently
acquired facility of her father's. In the peculiar expres-
sion, however, for which each of her distinguished re•
latives have been celebrated, they are likely still to stand
unrivalled. Without challenging the triumphant declama-
tion and the agonizing bursts of Mrs. SIDDONS, Miss
KEMBLE has an ample field before her, wherein she may
gather

" Golden opinions of all sorts of men."

(From the Morning Herald.)
Covent-garden Theatre commenced the season last night,
under circumstances most flattering to those who have
taken an interest in supporting it. We are happy to say
that the debut of Miss FAN NY KEMBLE was successful,
and that she bids fair to be an ornament to the stage, and
to transmit the hereditary honours of her family. Her
person is interesting, her face expressive, and her voice
one of the sweetest we have heard. She played with
soul and feeling, struck boldly at once into the spirit of the
part, and made every important scene tell from the force of
her own instinct. Though evidently accomplished in the
business of the stage, we have seldom seen a young lady so
clear of the embarrassment which the constant recollec-
tion of it occasions. Her action is charming, criticism
might find fault with it for being too redundant, but it is
always suited to the occasion, and its energy adds much
to the force of the impressive scenes. Her manner is ori-
ginal—at least no imitation of the KEMBLE style is to be
distinguished. Her voice is said to resemble that of Mrs.
SIDDONS, but it is evident, though she brings to the stage
all the assistance which the instruction of her accom-
plished family could give her, th it her own nature is
strong within her, and that she is an actress by the force
of her own feeling. We dread speaking too favourably of
a first appearance, but in this instance the promise is more
than ordinarily encouraging. Mr. CHARLES KEMBLE
played Mercutio for the first time, and released the cha-
racter from the frivolity which has generally been attached
to it. He pourtrayed it as that of a man of wit, of re-
finement, and of the world. His description of Queen
Mab was full of force ; and he disclosed a powerful pic.
ture of the effects of imagination. The part was taken in
the right key, and it is an instance of the good taste and
judgment of the performer.

KEAN made his sixth and last appearance on
Wednesday night at Edinburgh, in the character of Ham-
let. KEAN'S personation of the character was in his very
best style. At the close the plaudits were enthusiastic,
and immediately after the curtain dropped, he was so
loudly called for that he found it necessary to come for-
ward and make his acknowledgments. His remarks,
which were evidently quite unpremeditated, were to the fol-
lowing effect:—" Ladies and Gentlemen—l feel particu-
larly flattered by this mark of your kindness. It has ever
been my study to cultivate the good opinion of an Edin-
burgh audience—perhaps more than any other part of
the world—because I believe that warm friendship
and enlightened feeling are distinguishing characteristics
of the inhabitants of this city." He concluded by express-
ing his sincere thanks, and retired amidst renewed ap•
plause. KEAN has drawn excellent houses from, first
to last.

An actor of great celebrity, who has no aver-
sion to tipsy revelry, on Saturday night, quarrelled with a
supper party of bon vivants in the Strand. After a
scuffle, in which he broke a pane of the window that
opened into the street, they forced him to make a precipi-
tate exit. Shortly after he popped his head into the
broken pane, and exclaimed—" Gentlemen, I see through
my error, and humbly claim your usual indulgence." A
loud laugh ensued, and the performer was restored to the
honours of the sitting.

Ten thousand copies of each volume of the
Waverley Novels are published at Philadelphia on the same
day they are published in Edinburgh ; proof sheets, as they
are worked off, being regularly sent there by the Author,
by the swiftest sailing vessels. A large profit is realised by
Sir W. Scorn in consequence of this friendly intercourse
between the English and Transatlantic publishers.—

THE POETS' GOLDEN AGE.—A fashion
once prevailed of writing poems in the form of hearts,
altars, pyramids, pillars, and other fantastic devices. Now-
a-dabs, they are written in the form of large quartos, and
have been set to the tune of 3,000 guineas ; so that if we
have not gained any thing by the exchange, it is evident
the audio's have. " I will soon repay you these five
guineas," said a borrower, " in some shape or other."
" Do so," replied his friend; " and let it be as much as
possible in the shape of five guineas." Were we to lend
a two-guinea quarto poem, even by the Poet Laureate him-
self, we should beg to be repaid as little as possible in the
same shape.

On Saturday a waggon of Mr. JOHN PE R REY,
No. 183,480, overladen with immense boxes of marble, in
proceeding over Westminster-bridge proved too much for
the horses, when the shaft-horse suddenly fell, and the
check caused the front-box to fail on the poor animal, by
which both its thighs were broken ; and, after lingering,
it appears, two or three hours, it was killed. Accidents
of this kind with two-wheeled carts are common occur-
rences, and are, unhappily, passed over without censure;
but nothing short of the most gross negligence and cruelty
could occasion such an accident with a waggon with four
wheels.

One of the buildings in the interior of Lam..

being quite rotten.
