DRURrLAxE I iIEATRE

hr 7 ati::rcrr.4, a Farce, from the pen of Mr. At.
tikoH AM, watt Lit night piefented for the firft time,
at this Theatre. We cannot attempt any outline
of the plot, vei v little of which it p al•
though there is much whim and bottle in the part
alotted to BANNISTER. He is the fin of a very in-
dulgent father, an has fit:died himfclf Oupid almoft
with philolophy, when he is feized with a violent in-
clination to commence B.;reifier ; this he relinquithes
for the fake of glory in a military capacity; from
whence he makes a rapid trantition to botany. He
then becomes a Ztaker, for the fake of a girl, whom
he fuppofes " one of the faittfal," but in reality was
his tather's choice for him, and whom he had met
as a Savoyard at a Mafquerade. There is alfo a
La weer in the piece, a mere attempt at a copy of
Pansi,a, dellitute, however, of all retentions to any
thing like the merit of COLMAN't, pedagogue. The
piece went off wonderfully well ; it was excellently
pets. med, and what little muiic it has is pretty, but
not re-narkable either for its novelty or variety. Mils
DECAMP was the heroine. It was announced for re-
petititm amidtl loud appiattles.

We have authority from Mr. Jock's, of Balker-
(guar., to (late, that be is nGt the perfon implicated
in the late difagreeahle htifinel; which took place at
the Theatre on Friday night.

We are happy to fay, on the 3oth ult. a+ Norwich,
where the went for her accouchement, the Lady of Co-
VAnel the Honourable GODYRtY MACDONALD Was
fely delivered of a fine girl.
A Law, or rather an Imperial Ordinance, has been
pelted, by which all frifhmen, now in the fervice,
civil or military, of the French Government, are na-
turalized, and to be confidered, in every refpeft, as
Trench Citizens. Something more is faid to be in-
tended by this than is at prefent underflood. An
Englilh Gentleman, of the name of ELWIN, having
attempted his efcape from Verdun, and lacing direct-
vered, was fent to the dungeon of Bitchc.
_

Monday feinight a match for one hundred guineas
st fide, was decided upon Beverley Race-ground—
Lord BKOnKis'S chefnut horfe !vlarfct, agAinft Col.
Klxes grey horfe Ilefsle, one four mile heat. The
race was uncommonly well eontened, and won by the
former by only half a neck. The odds at flatting
were two and three to one on Kaltd. A great
number of ipedators were prefent. Another match
is to be run on Wedncrday next, one two mile heat.
On the edge of a (mall Rivcr, in the County of
Cavan, there is a itone with the following grange
infcription, no doubt intended for the information of
firangers travelling that way:
.N. B. When this (lone is ora of fight, it is not fate
to ford the River ! This is fomething fimilar to the
famous pofi crated by the direttions of the Surveyors
of the roads cf Kent Come years ago :--,"fhis is a
bridle-path to Faverfham ;if you can't read this, you
had better keep the main road."

The 79th is one of the regiments under orders for
embarkation ; it is on its march from Cork for Li.
merick. The 3d regiment are on their route from
Clzamell for embarkation—they were relieved by
the Both. The zgth will do duty in Bandon.
On Thurfday, the 14th inft. the Kincardinefhire
Volunteers, under the command of Lieut. Colonel
ALEX. BURNIITT, having completed their period of
permanent duty of 21 days at Montrofe, marched
back to their own county.
