Ministers to guard against the recurrenee Or such

As the evils hitherto -experienced by'the service,
&on the trill-orgoixation and inefficacy of the Army
.Medical Depirtment, are principally to be ascribed to
the incapacity and inexperience of tha perons fre-
quently vested with the controul, we shall first offer a
few hints on the powers and qualities which the Mem-
bers of a Board should possess, which :s intended for
the direction aftfie medical affairs of the army. The
nembers selected for a Medical Board should be men

of disinterested minds,• of strict integrity, much pro-
fessional• abilities, and of great military experience
acquired by long service in various climates and situ.
ations ; they should be men of independent principles,
.devoid of and superior to all party-influence they
should consist of at least three persons, and should al.
ways act as a conjunct body. It has been said that one
man is sufficient for the direction of this department;
but whoever is acquainted with the variety and great
iisiportnnce of the duties, will readily see the difficul.
ties an individual would labour under in the discharge
of so momentous an undertaking, independently. of the
dangerous consequences which would more likely
follow from the corruption of an individual in paws',
compared with one or even two members of a Board.
Every order, instruction, or communication given or
issued ly the Board, should be in the name thereof.
The members should be specially appointed by his
. Majesty, and they should not be liable to be affected
by political changes, nor by ministerial or other in-
fluence.
The individials of this Board should:hi entirely
devoted to their duties, and they should not be per-
rnitted to follow any other pursuit!, professional or
.otherwise, of whatever nature, lest it should interTere
with or influence the discharge of their public func-
tions. The* salaries should bu-tdequetely sufficient,
but they should pot leitpy- any other pi** of profit

A heavy fall of snow commenced on Saturday last,
and has continued, with little intermission, every suc-
ceeding day, accompanied by a strong gale, a great
part of the time, from the North and North West.!
The quantity of snow that has fallen in this neigh-
bourhood is so great, that in many places the road
has been rendered perfectly impassable for caniages.
The mail and other coaches from York, have not
reached this place since Saturday last. The Doe-
caster coach, by way of Howden, which should have
come in on Sunday night, arrived here yesterday.
On Sunday, and the four following days, the bags,
with the mails from York, were brought in between
ten and eleven o'clock each day, on horseback, from
York, the mail guards having to ride eighty miles each
day, through the snow, with the mails ; one of them
was so severely fatigued, that he lies at Bishop Bur-
ton, very dangerouily ill. In the neighbourhood of
Market Wei&hton, the snow was drifted so much as
to be level with the hedges on each side. The fall
of snow appears to have confined principally to
the Eastern part of the coast : the South and Western
mails arrived each night at York, at pretty nearly
the usual time, as did also the Carlisle and Newcastle
mails; but those from Whitby and Scarborough were
not received for two or three days. A greater fall of
snow, in such a short space of time, has seldom been
witnessed : and the frost, particularly on Saturday
afternoon, was uncommonly intense. We have not yet
heard of any serious accident, by land, in this neigh-
bourhood ; but we are sorry to say, that the damage
sustained by the shipping, not only upon this coast,
but also upon the whole of the East and South East
coast, has been very considerable."

Friday last his Royal Highness the Duke of
GLovcesTEft arrived at Doylsiord House, the beauti-
ful seat of Governer HASTINGS ; and on Saturday
morning his Royal Highness charged horses at the
White Hart Inn, Chipping Norton, on his way to
London.

convoy.

BRZAD.—This day there being no Court of Alder-
men, the LOKI, MAYOR, after inspecting the returns,
ordered it to remain at the present prices.
The Alexander, Arstnis, a very valuable ship,
laden with cotton, supposed to have been lost, east up
yesterday. She arrived off Portsmouth about nine
days ago, when a tremendous gale came on and drove
her over to the French coast, and she has been eier
since endeavouring to reach the Downs, where she
has at length arrived. The Captain states, that whilst
on the enemy's coast, he perceived several British
ships driven on shore.

On Suoduy the Serpentine River in Hyde Park was
crowded with skaiters, spans, and spectators. Some
confectioners having obtained permission to take ice
from that river, they invariably take it from the sides
and although it soon gets frozen over again, yet, of
course, it must be much weaker than the centre, and
in consequence several incautious parties were le; in ;
but were soon got out again without receiving any
other injury than a good ducking. One of the p.
consisted of siz, among them were four young
genteelly dressed ; they were let in above their mid.,
; their screams soon brought nurnerouslassistants,,
but as soon as it was discovered there was no dangly.
a considerable liugh was raised at the unfortunate

Ladies

Yesterday the Serpentine River had a most beauti-
ful appearance, being entirely frozen over ; a number
of people attended at an early hour and erected stalls
on the ice ' • chaira were also placed for the accom-
modation of those who wished to hire skaites ; there
was also a good supply of hot mutton pies, and gin
and gingerbread in great abundance, to the gratifica-
tion of the holiday folks, who were very numerous.
A young man of the name of Stevens, servant to
Mr. TIDBAT, of Charlotte.street, Portland-place, was
sliding on a pond, at Paddington, yesterday, with a
youth, eight years old, his master's nephew, hold of
his hand, when the middle of the pond was unfrozen
near to which the slide ended. Stevens saw the dan-
ger, and in disengaging the boy from Wm, to prevent
both approaching the hole, he fell within two yards
of it, when the ice broke and let both into the water.
The servant perished, but the boy was saved.
, A young man, named Younger, was drowned on
Sunday in the Park, and two boys in the Hampstead
Road on Saturday, from similar causes.
About two o'clock on Sunday morning the 18th'
inst. a most dreadful fire broke out in thehouse of John
Green, in Newbegin, Mahon, which in the coure of
a few minutes made a very alarming progress, and,
from the nature of the building, being chiefly wood,
and covered with thatch, threatened at first consider-
able mischief to the adjoining close and other build-
ings, which are principally built of the same materials.
By prompt assistance, the flames were completely sub-
dued, without spreading farther than the above-men-
tioned place, which was entirely consumed.
It Wednesday evening, a young woman, in a
black velvet pelisse, and in other respects genteelly
dressed, who was in the two shilling gallery of the
Haymarket theatre, suddenly fell backwards, appa-
rently in a strong fit ; she was conveyed out to Mr.
Hastings, the chemist. adjoining the theatre, who
used his endeavours a long time to recover her. but
in vain. She was then taken to St. Martin's Work-
house, where she has lain tver since speechless, sup-
posed to be occasioned by a lock jaw. She has not
yet been owned. -

made by her previous performance ; in the fast act,
particularly, she appeared to great advantage. The
applause which she received was unbounded. Mir ,
performances, we understand, are merely trials Lefore

return to Glasgow with the brightest feather in a per
pformees cap—the approbation of the Met tin
benches. Mr. Pon was the substitute (or Mr. Coons,
in Pierre, and even with alloy the play was very
well received. The pantomime of Mother Coale fol.,
lowed, with its usual success. • The first of the new
scenes was the Ruins of the late Covent Garden Theatre.
Views of Drury Lane Theatre, Opera House, Hay-
market, Paris, 13ourdeaux, Amsterdam, Venice, and
Petersburgh Theatres, were then introduced, and had
a very good effect. They were succeeded by an ele-
gant scene, representing the intended new Theatre.—
It was a square building surrounded with piazzas.—
The house was crowded to an overflow.

DRURY-LANE —Little did FOOTE think, when he
made Sir Thomas Lofty, in the Patron, write a drama
called " Robinson Crusoe," by way of a burlesque,
that a production with that title would really appear,
and under the hands, too, of a dramatist like Sum-
DAN. This, however, was the case thirteen years ago ;
and yesterday evening the piece was revived, with
many alterations, and acted to a very numerous audi-
ence. It is an entertainment exceedingly superior to
the comment class of pantomimes, not only in the Har-
leguinade, but in the serious plot which prcedes the
endowment of the fantastic hero. It is divided into
two acts, of which the first is an interesting little bal-
let, the production of the late Mrs. SitiounaN. That
tasteful and judicious authoress seems to have made it
her particular care, to preserve as much of the original
story as could be conveniently dramatized; and we
are reminded of DE FoE's affecting narrative by, a
thousand little circumstances that would have escaped
as ordinary writer of Pantomime, such as Friday's
adoration of the gun, the furniture of the hut, the con-
struction of the boat, and the appearance of Crusoe's
live stock. Mr. D'EuviLLE was ,imple, natural, and
affecting in his representation of Crum ; and Mr.
LAURE.NT, who personated Friday, played exceed.
ingly well. Mrs. SHARP as Co/am.l,inc, and Miss C.
Batsrow as Cu/rid, were extremely pleasing in their
respective styles, and the piece went off with very
good effect. The great powers of the Drury-lane
machinery are chiefly reserved for the last scene of
the pantomime, in. which a very brilliant and airy
orchestra of cherubs and cupids advance and recede
from the bottom to the top of the stage with a light-
ness and ease very much in unison with the appear-
ance of the clouds that are supposed to support them.
The gods and goddesses are here machinery indeed. •

THE BEVERLF.Y HUNT.—The Beverley Hunting
Meeting has terminated most brilliantly. The hounds
have had a capital week's sport. On Monday se'n•
night, after running two foxes to ground, they found
a third, which.they killed, after an extremely sharp
and good run. Tuesday they killed their first fox in
25 minutes ; after which they found again in Holder-
nos, going the best pace for an hour and a a half;
when, owing to its coming on dark, the fox heat them.
The huntsman's famous grey horse Holderness, and
many others, died in consequence of the severity
of the run. Thursday they killed a fox handsomely,
but owing to the badness of the weather, without
much sport. Friday they met at Dringnoe, where
they found immediately, and had a most capital run
of an hour and twenty minutes, the last five of which,
they viewed their fox, but he got to ground in
earth at Rise ; notwithstanding the severity- of the
run, not one hound cut of 24 couple was wanting
when the fox got to ground. This uncommon good
week's diversion terminated by a most brilliant and
splendid ball and supper, given by the Members.of
the Beverley Hunt CM. All the beauty and fashion
of Beverley and the neighbourhood were assembled.
At one o'clock ISO persons sat down to a sumptuous
and elegant supper. After the champaigne had gone ,
briskly round, the dancing was resumed, and the corn-'
pang reluctantly separated at six in the morning.
A lUDIARLABLIII Fox.CHASE.—A few days ago, as
a gentleman was coursing under Blodv.-ell Rock, near
forthywaen Lime-Works, he unkennelled a very
large dog-fox, of the greyhound species and, having
two couple of beagles, they pursued him through the
extensive covers near that rock, to the summit of
Llanymynech-hill ; but, being very hard run, he
made a short turn, passing through the Gorwell
eovery, and along the banks of the river Trunet, near
to the village of Llanyblodwell. The beagles then
approached him so near, that he was under the ne-
cessity of taking the road for Llanddu : and leaving
those covers on the left, he returned, much fatigued,
to near the place where he was first started. He
then went through a large cover, called Cowman's
Ruff, and to Llanymynech-hill, and, in a lime quarry
there, he s:opped for his little pursuers, who, having
ran him in view under that hill, opposite the village
• of Llanymynech, he ascended a craggy rock, and got
into a subterraneous passage of great length, formerly
worked (as it is supposed) by the Roman miners.
.Bold Reynard, being somewhat warm, could not long
'remain in so close a confinement, but had the auda-
city to make his appearance at the entrance of the
passage, and fought his way out, in defiance of the
beagles, and two greyhounds, which he had beaten
before ; and taking a direction the same way back,
"for a considerable distance up a narrow precipice in
another part of the rock, he had no alternative of es-
caping, but by throwing himself down a declivity of
the rock, a little flyther on, at least forty feet high,
without apparent injury. He then ran near to the
turnpike-gate of Llanymynech ; but, being met by a
canal boat, which made 'him alter his course, he ran
over the Stair Cerrig-hill, (where he took another
prodigious leap down a rock), and along the turnpike
road to Oswestry : and, having stopped a few mi-
nutes in a. small close near Llyncklys, the beagles ran
lint in, view for a considerable way, and he was taken
alive, after a hard chase of more than four hours,
with littleliwermission.
