CO,IHT GA ID II N.—The revival of Percy:, yd.
terday evening was doubly welcome, not only on
account of the intrinfic merit of this admirable
Ballet, but for being the medium of introduetion
to Mr. Duaois, formerly of Drury-Lane, and long
the fupport of Sadlers Wells. His performance
of the Savage befpoke his pantemimical talents to
be of no mean defeription. Little MENA(IF ivas fo
diverting in Champanzi, and evinced fo m►tch zeal
and feeling, as to put the Monkies of the Lobby
coropleatly in the back ground.

THEATRE. DRURY LAN E.--Lail night, after ti;-
Tragedy of Mary Herz of -not', in which r,:rs,
POPE was the interelling reprefentative of the n.
fortunate heroine, and Mrs. POW E LL futtained u illy
much dignity and animation the part of .Qyme Eli-
zabeth, the old Burletta of Midas was revived ;„
very magnifiettit The (yens of Olympus is
one of the moll brilliant we ever beheld, and the
machinery of. the clouds, ci.ling as the Celefilals
afcend, is managed in the molt beautiful pi&n efritie
manner. The Gode are represented feated art.idti
the clouds, in full council. gujiikr, yuno, Nliarva,
remss, and the whole of the Dii Majares, appear
moll magnificently and -appropriately attired,
After Jaw has ezecuted his vengeance upon Apollo,
! and hurled him to the earth by a thunderbolt, he
refumes his throne, and the Celvltials afcend to the
upper heavens. For the execution of this move,
ment, a falfe Rage has been cophrated, the breadth
of the profcenium, and. very deep; which rifing, ele.
pates all their godfbips rn the-moll rnajeftic and
impofing man*. The clouds gradually *wailer
round them, and at 'aft they vanith altogether
from the tight of allonithed mortals. The la ft feene.
exhibiting Afereary and the Mule, was alfo very
beautiful. A number of rural y newly painted,

MRS. BAKER'S GALA.—MTS. BARER gave a
molt fuperb fete lan week at her house in Chichef:
ter. The elegance of her tine is well known; but
threxertions of this fair and amiable wido•.e,
year, for the entertainment of her numerous
friends, have furpaffed all her former ones—the
company, confining of all the fafhion in Clicbettcr
and its. vicinity, began to atremble about nine
o'clock in the great saloon : the musical amateurs
were here regaled with feveral pieces Of mufic,
perfumed by a choice band, confilting of two-
and-twenty performers, until a grand finale with
a full piece brought on the appointed time for the.
opening the India room. Here all appeared cro,
chantment; the room is, we underfland, the exaa
cou;teyp:at of the late Hyder Any's he:trice
Chamber, and is ornamented precisely in the fame
magnificent flyle, the fair honefs having hc;felf
taken a sketch of it on the spot. The bail V" S
opened with the favourite dance of " Co to du
Devil .and (hake yonrfelf." The Hon. ARTHUR
BINSTEAD and Mifs.WusaTtry led down, fa'
lowed by five and thirty couple, rich in youth,.
fafhion, and beauty ; the choiceft reirLtlimonts

.
enraptured affemblage that the enchantments of
India and China mutt yield to the more pleat

the Steward, beating the deceafed—the prifoner
was below at the time. The itrokes he received
were not fitfficient to occafion any man's death.—
He was not dragged about the deck after he had

'Witting-art:l to the conduct of the prifoner, he had

• Williatis Hunw was a feaman on board the brig
the minsing of 'the 9th, the Captain, by the
help of the-,Steward, -came up from his cabin to
order the hands on deek, as the weather was very
bad. The Ceiok waimilreng at the time ; tome.
body went atid:broteght him on deck, and when he
refufed tolmaloft, Jones and Willoughby gave
him fomelinpes.' But they were not detired to do
fo by the Captain or any body elfe ; and it was
not till ten minutes after that the Cook fell down
in a fit. While Willoughby was beating him, the
Captain came up to the companion, and detired
that he might not be beaten. The Witnefs was on
deck all the time,*and could know what pat Ted, and
the Captain never made ufe -of any of the expref-
fions ftvorn to by Gannon; but on the contrary or-
dered Willbughby to take the deceafed and rub his
temples with 'rusn,and put hien in a warm blanket.
The beating the deceafed got Was fo flight that
it could not injure him. He ufed to have an equal
allowance with the other feamen. The Captain
was, at the time, on !bort allowance himfelf. Every
thing was cooked in his cabin for the ufe of the
crew, and the deceafed *as to do duty as a failor
and not as a cook. • A few days before he died
the Captain gave him one of his flannel wailtcoats
to proted him from the weather. Malcolm Fer-
gutim did not Ilrike the deceafed at all, ne. was
he on deck at the time in queflion. Gannon was
on the fore. yard at the time, and Vincent, who was
alto on the yard, had a better opportunity of tee-
ing what was going on upon deck than the others.
Gannon bore a very bad charader. He was con-
fldered a etiranglefam: man.
Two Headboroughs belonging to the parifh of
St. George in the Ealt were next called, to prove
