nERAL OF LORD NELSJII.

morning Lord Hoop, the Governor of
Hofpital, attended Lord , HAV/ILSBUILY,
in the Treafury, refpating the final at
for the ceremony of the remains of Lord
Lying in Rate. When it was fettled, that lt
nmence on Sunday awning, and continue
. day, Monday and Tuefday—The pro-
the Thames on Wednefday, and the funeral
Ice on Thurfday. The folemn proceffion
.. to move at ten o'clock oWThurfslay morn-
, from the Admiralty. Thofe who go in the pro-
/ion will enter the Admiralty by the door in the
ark. It is fuppofcd it will not reach St. Paul's till
wo o'clock.

A draft of the peculiar !lupe and turn of the Vie-
nltY, including her figure head, and every thing elle
ro complete the reprefentation, has been taken. From
his a handfome model, in miniature, has been formed,
tnd, if the defign (hall be approved of by the Board
:if Works, the carriage upon which the remains cf
he gallant Na Lao)/ ate to be conveyed from the Ad-
miralty to St. Paul's, will be forthwith put into the
hands of as many workmen as poffible, in order that
it may be ready by the appointed time.
No proceflion that has ever taken place in this
'country will equal, in point of grandeur and pomp,
that which will be difplayed at the funeral of Lord
Nitwit. _ . _

!Upwards of three thoufand perfons, in their offi-
ial•charatters, will appear in the cavalcade on the
ate?. All the public Companies' barges will be
orned in the Mon fuperb manner, as well as the
arges belonging to the Admiralty, &c. &c. On
the fecond day (the gth of January,) after the body
as been brought from Greenwich, the funeral cere-
mony will take place under the diration of the four
Heralds at Arvin. At the entrance into the City,
at Temple Bar, the'corpre *ill be met by the Lord
Mayor and Court of Aldermen, habited in full drefs
mourning, wearing their fcirlet robes; on the part
of the body of Common Cntmcil, a deputation of
'twelve will walk in the proceffion, each wearing a
full drefs fuit of black, under their filk mazarine
towns—the fervants of each body in their liveries,
wearing hatbands and gloves. Every Gentleman of
the Corporation, we underßand, will receive two
tickets of admrdion, one for hirofelf, and another for
a lady, into St. Paul's.
For the condu&ing this grand national tribute of
;efpeag, on the part of the City of London, there are
iv& Committees fitting daily ; one confining of the
Right Honourable the Lord ayor, Alined by (even
Aldermen and all the City Officers, for that part
of the procellion which regards their own body ; and
the other Committee fit daily at Guildhall, for the
regulating of that part belonging to the Common
Council. _ _

All the avenues lading to the water fide, on the
day of the procetl on. by water, are to be doted, to
prevent cartiagez from drawing down.

The crime of which Sir R. CA unit has been firoved
guilty, is the hone for which Admiral BYNG was fhot
—Error of Judgment. But the law, as it then flood,
was altered Coon after Admital Bran's fentence was
ut in execution.
A duel was to have taken phce, yefierday, in a
16eld between Brentford and Fitton, between Lieut.
'4 L—t, and a young Gentleman of Fortune, refiding
1
near Kenfingtan ; but the intentions of the parties
were &filtrated by the appearance of police officers.
Notwithaanding the advantage of infular fituation,
and the precautionary meafures adopted t the Ge-
neral Depbt for recruits in the Me of Wight, to pre-
vent defertion, many inftancesocco of too fuccefsful
attempts. A Correfpoudent fuggefts, to fruflrate prac-
tices of this nature, which are injurious to the fervice
and the public put fe, a that an order should be aired,
that fo loon as-a recruit is enlilled in any part of the
United Kingdom, he fliculd receive regimental flop
, clothing for his march, and be immediately deprived
of his coloured clothing or drefs, vhatever they may
I be, and an allowance by valuation given him by the
Recruiting Officer for the fame." This regulation,
if it did not altogether annihilate defertion, would do
away the exitling facility of it, by foldiers difguifing
themfeves in coloured clothes which they are now
permitted to retain.
The brave Tar, who appeared on the liege at Co-
vent-Garden Theatre; lalt Thurfday, was with Lord
No.sow at the battle of Tenerife, and likewife at'
1 the battle of the Nile, and at the battle of Trafalgar;
Iles name is Tunica: Jacitson. He has been many
I ) ears in the navy.

Lan week a larze calk, full ()fen, was driven on
, &ore near COW) coats. Thole who found it knocked
loot one of the end), made every one welcome to
drink what they pleared, and fetved it out plena.
fully to tbofe who brought veltels to carry it away. 1
;Numbers were lying drank, and others reeling about,
!the calk, the greater part of the day. One young
man who had lien amongft the groupe, went into
an adjoining field, where he fell afleep, and was
found dead next morning.
On the Bth intl. an unprovoked alTatilt was cont•
itted by a Gentleman of the name of WHEELER, on
a Mr. Lti a asam, in the Exchange•hall,at Hamburgh.

The former buck the latter a revere blow on the head
with a Rick, whim he was off his guard. The next
morning the aggrefor was arreßecl in his bed, and
taken before a Magißrate, who adjudged him to pay
a tine to the poor of too ducats, and to make an apo.

i With card players, as well as at many other games,
there is a very expreffive phrafe, ftyled, " Playing
I upon Velvet." in no intlaace, perhaps, is this
phrafe to Ri ;kingly applicable, as in the prefent rich
Lottery Scheme, wherein the holders of the &II drawn
five thoufand numbers are not only certain of gain ;
i but are playing alGi, during the whole time of the
Drawing of thefe numbers, on the Velvet, of partici-
pating likewife of every one of the Scheme's floating
Capitals. •
A thinly beggar, named Davis, who has been re-
peatedly patted to his parilli in Wales, was on Friday

(loaner SeCGon ; for perfitling in his mendicity, be.

iu; capable of labour, and it is probable he will be
sentenced to tranfportatioa, the penalty attashed to

COVENT GARDE) fitEATRE.

Lail night, after the Comedy of The Max of the
World, a new Melo Dramatic Pantomime, entitled
Harlegrin's Magnet ; or the Scandsnaviaa Sorerror,,lval
brought forward for the firft time. We (übjnin a
brieroutline of the Piece :
Nor, a poweiftil Sorcerer, has, with the aftiftance
of. infernal agents, made war upon the votaries of
Odin, with a view to get into his poffeffion the per-
fon of Fylla, a beautiful Princefs, of whom he is cla-
moured, but who detefts him, and is contraaed to
Harald, a young Knight, who loves and is beloved
by her—sthe Soiccrtar overcomes this youth, and or-
ders
him to be chained and expofed in a wild -foreft
to the mercy of the climate, the pangs of hunger,
and the rage of favage animals.
The Evil Deitiis who affift Nor, prefent him
with a magnet, enclofed in an enchanted coffer, and
tell him that if lie keeps it Cafe he may depend upon
polreffing the perfon of Fylla; this promife deceives
him by the very performance of it ; for the Prince!:
herfelf is in the theft, in a [late of fupernatural in-
fenfibility ; but the Sorcerer, not being (offered to
fee the magnet, is left ignorant of its teal worth and
character, and leeks in vain for the prize be unknow-
ingly has in his power.
Odin and his celeftial affociates, indignant at the
tyranny and temporary (needs of the Magician, deli-
ver the captive, Harald, Irons the dangers of the fo
reft, give him the form, and endue him with the
powers ufually attributed to the motley hero Hark-
gain, to the end that he may annoy and finally dif-
comfit the plots of Nor and his wizard companions.
Harlequin, by his &ill and agility, overcomes the
°Mules which lie in his way to the magic chef(,
and releafes the Princes from it, who takes the form
of Columbine, while Nor, and his attendant Curio,
are metamorphofed to the Pantaloon and Clown, as
a puniihment inflifted on them by their infernal mat%
tens for lofing the lady, and it is only by recovering
her and vanquilhing Harlequin they arc to regain
their proper ihapes.
After a routine of comic adventures milled
through various parts of RulEa, Siberia, and Crim
Tartary, the lovers are once more placed at the
mercy of their oppreffor, and re-condoled to his
abode, when the vengeance of Odin overtakes the
necromantic crew, and enclofes them in the coffer of
the magnet—the Hero and Heroine are releafed,
and their hands united in a fplendid temple (acted to
their great Protedor.
This pantomime is the avowed produaion of Mr.
T. DIBDIM. Its principal incidents are taken from
" Mallet's Northern Antiquities," and are adapted
to Itage reprefentidion with 4reat effett, under the
direttion of Mr. FARLSY. I'he fcenery is of the
moll fplendid order, and reflects great credit on the
refpetlive artifts. We particularly noticed a fall of
(now, the Roman Admiralty, and a fine equeftrian
(tattle of the Emperor Parse. Indeed, the whole
fccnery taken together, is fur.rior to any thing we
have feen for tome time. The tonfic is -the joint
production of Mt. W. Wait, the leader of the
band, and of Mr. DAVI% It is highly honourable
to the tape of thofe gentlemen. There is a iar
wildnefs in its competition, which is admirabqfiltited
to the piece that is its vehicle. The overture is un-
commonly pretty. Brava and Mils SSARLS were
the Harlequin and Columbine, and appeared to great
advantage. When a long, lung by SIMMONS, as a
Ruffian nsinftrel, (hall be omitted, the piece will be
perfed. That long was encored, though violently
°pooled.
The hook was crowded. The curtain fell
amiclft the loodeft applaufes, and the piece was an.
nounced for repetition this evening, with isniverfal ap-
probation.
