This Th eatre•opened on Saturday evening for the
'Winter Season, with ComttAx's-popular,„ Comedy of
si-hi Bull. The cast of characters was the same as
formerly, with the exception of the Ilott.suralle Mr

Mr. Dc CAMP. The part perfectly well soiled to
Mr. WALLAcies powers, and the play derived crinsi.

mers were
old
on their several enteirby ,the au-
dience as old favourites, espe,nally DowTou. JottN-
wows, WA-LLACK, and Mrs. GLoVEIt. The Farce of
the Adopted Odd gave Mr. Baimcv and Miss KELLY
an opportunity of successfully exciting their taiews.
Both met with a flatteting reception. but especially
the latter, whose chaste and animated performance
caused the plaudits which welcomed her inn her en-
trance to be often repeated in the course of the ewer-
'Aliment. Mr. KENT made his first appearance in
Spruce, and gave great importance to this trifling cha-
racter. his figure and person, as well as his•gtneral
planner, seem well calculated to raise him to a better
walk than this in the drama. The audience was a
numeictis.one, and as elegant as could be expected
at this season of the year; aup the performance was,
on the whole, such as did credit to the stage manage.
went.

In the Insolvent Debtor's Court, on Saturday, the•
caw Of Professor LLOYD, which had been brfme the
Court seven successive times, was at last finally set-
tled. Serjeant RUNNINGTON decided that although
there appeared highly improper conduct on the part
of the Doctor, there was no appearance of gross
fraud, and therefore ordered him to be discharged, on

paying cogs, and giving security for the payment of
a debt to Messrs. Rundle and Bridge.
A singularly fatal instance of the effect of fright
occurred in a hop-ground near Canterbury, in the af-
ter noon of Monday last. A boy named Hortop, in
taking up a sack upon which a bull-dog was lying,
the animal sprung at his throat, but the boy lifting
his hand to protect hirus.l-, it seised and lacerated
h:s arm, when a woman or the name of Brooks, who
was indisposediat the MOTTleilts was so much affected
by the sight, iron) conceiving that the boy thus at-
tacked was one of her own children, that the circula.
%ion of her bliod was impeded, and she died in con.
sesuence early en ‘Vednesday morning. Tne poor
woman WAS toe wile of Robert Brooks, * labouring
man residing in Canterbury, had been the mother of
eighteen children, and has leis seven, the youngest
only five weeks old.
The walls, which have been laid open by the Strand
Bridge al crowns, do not display any very remote
kusanship ; they are of brick, prodigiously strung,
and of considerable extent; the buttresses and window

casements are of stone, and extrendely solid in their
comtruction. The style of building is that of the
early or middle part of the sixteenth century. when
brick became generally used in architecture, and when
the low pointed arch was succeeded by that with the
obtuse angle at the top. In the extensive range of
windows which those ruins expose, there is only tine
which appears to partake of a more ancient character.
it is nearly twine the size of the others, and has souse
vestiges ot those ornamental compartments and sob-
Oivistnns which belong to what Sir CHIMTOPIIIIt
WILIN calls Sammie architecture, a style very emit-
Mon in England for ages after the Crusade. Except
• in this iingle instance, the ruins partake of that plain
and mixed style which was introduced into England
ran Italy, in the reign of Hume VIII.
Awn Arrnmon.—The only genuine Anti-Attri-
tion is sold at the Patentees' Offiae, No. eo,Charing-
Cross, near the Admiralty, London ; and, by their
appointment, at • most Coachmakers, innkeepers,
Cu,tch and Waggon-Offices, Ship-Chandlers, Iron-
mongers, Cutlers, and Shopkeepers, in the United
Kingdom. That fpr which a Patent has been eb•
taxied is known by the King's Arms being on the
Boxes, and the directions being signed "W. D. Bel-
tvny," to counterfeit which is felony ; all other is
spurious, and hurtful to machinery ? is a fraud
upon the public, and also gm the patent ; but, by the
use of the real Anti-Attrition instead of tallow, oil, or
grease, the public save in some cases more than 12
pounds out of 1;: ; fin it has, been most satisfactorily
proved by Mr. Smith, of Gaythorn, Manchester, that
tene ounce, which costs about 6.1. is quite equal in the
working of machinery to eight pounds' weight of
tallow, which costs Gs. B.f. and Sir James Ferguson,
Bart. of Kilkerran, North Britain, has proved that
one quarter of a pound weight of the real Anti-At-
trition, which costs about yai. 6d. is more than equal
to six Scot; pints of oil, which .costs 111. 12s.—The
Earl of BreadAlbane's carriages frequently travel with

pulling off a wheel; and the carriages of the Duke
o( Buccleugh, Marquis of Tweedale, Marquis of
Queensberry, Lord Castlereagh, Mr. Wellesley Pole,

one priming or the Ettent Anti-Attrition.-

The Duke iißeaiitort has a waggon that has travelled
*OO miles with One Printing. l'he Wakefield Stage
Wagon, from London-% all, has gone Three T:ines
from London to Wakefield, and back, a distance of
nearly 1200 miles, with a single Priming, which costs
less than.ls. ;Mews. Elliott and Co.'s Drays, &c.
are now all worked with the Anti-Attritioni which
gives the greaten satisfaction, on account of the vari-
utis advantaLes experienced tbeirby. Mr. Hust wick,
of Hull, has a Stage Coach that went 12 times from
Hull-to York, and back, with a single application.—
Messrs. Roscoes and Co. of Holywell, hjve a Steam-
Engine of 42-hors; power, which has worked Five
Months with less than £lO worth of the Anti-Attri-
tion, and without any thing else to the Piston or Bear-
ings, in which time it would have consumed upwards
et six times that amount in Tallow only. Messrs.Pi es-
vin and Dean's Steam-Engine, at Manchester, of 32-
norse power, works still longer, and derives 6iHiil-tr
advantages. Numerous other proofs of the begehts
to be derived from the application of Real Anti-At-
trition may be seen at the Patentees' Office in Lon.

Box. Many Carriages are known to travel upwards
of Fifteen Hundred Miles with One Priming, and in no
J,ite is there a less saving by its use than The;e Hun-
dred per Cuss. besides saving Wear and Tear, Time
and Labour, and being the cleanest article in its work-
ing that ever was invented to pram d e effects of
