COVENT-CIARDENTILEATRIte•••Mr.TERRY last night
strade his second appearance, on these boards, as Lord
Ogieby,in the Comedy of The Clandestine Marriage, the
character in which ••he made his debut, a few years
Since, at the Haymarket. Mr. T.'s performance of
this very arduous character, demands our warmest
praise. The applause, in every scene where Lord
Ogleby is concerned, was incessant. MisseCoorce's
Fanny Sterling was extremely interesting. The rude
vulgarity of Mrs. Heidelberg, and the malicious vio-
lence of Mit; Sterling, were well pourtrayed by Mrs.
DAVENPORT and Mrs. GIBBS, Mrs. KENNEDY made
her second appearance in the part of Betty, and ac-
quitted herself well. The House was well attended.
Lieutenant WALLIS, the friend and companion of
the unfortunate Captain WRIGHT, who arrived a few
days since at the Admiralty, from a dungeon, in
0-hich he was confined in France, was first Lieutenant
of the VINOEJO, at the time of the capture of that ves-
sel on the French coast. On his examination, the se-
verest threats were held out to induce him to crimi-
tate Captain WRIGHT ; and although he was not
versed in the French language,
.he was repeatedly
threatened with the torture for his ignorance. On the
murder of his lamented Commander, he was deprived
of his parole, and instantly placed in close confine-
ment, in a prison at Verdun, situated on the river
aiese. After two ineffectual attempts, he at length
succeeded in extricating himselffrom this 'disagreeable
situation. The entrance :o his dungeon had two doors,
each with a separate lock, which he was compelled to
pass before he could reach the outer wall. By the
means of f,lse keys he was enabled to overcome this
difficulty, and scaled the wall of 5U feet in height,
with the help of a knotted rope. After exneri-
encing many difficulties, he reached Bruges in safety,
and got from thence to Blankenburgh, where he
obtained a boat, and wan taken on board the CoRN.
WALL, Captain OWEN, and reached Dover on Sunday.
—He represents the Tyrant as being universally de-
tested, and ascribes his protection entirely to the nu.
=emus guard that daily attends the person of this
destroyer of the human race. Provisions of all kinds
are exceedingly cheap. The generality of the Eng-
lish prisoners at Verdun were well, but from the
Cheapness of spirits, of a very inferior quality, many
of the seamen had severely suffered.
The report of a mutiny in the French Fleet at
Toblon, We understand, is unfounded. The circula-
Mrs of the report had probably received an erroneous
account of a fact in the following letter (from an
Officer of rank in our squadron), and the Admiral's
barge had, by mistake, been converted into the Ad-
Mira' himself :

" Although we are seldom more than twelve
tnglish miles from the French Admiral, he has not
the civility to send a Moniteur. A few day; :tinct
twenty-nine Pattern: brought out the Rearneldmiral't
(Violette) barge, finely carved and gilt, from his chip,
the Commerce de Paris. From them I received the
inclosed account of the enemy's fleet, which corre-
sponds exactly with my own observ.ttions, and the
official Report of the Admiral :
" They state, that the flag-ships have not more
than 600 men on board, and that number is reduced
by drafts weekly for the army. They occasionally come
out sixteen sail of the hie and ten frigates, and when
the fleet is out of sight, make a show of chasing the in-
shore little squadron. We are almost tempted. to try
their force. Their ships are magnificent to behold,
and, in fiim weather, not ill handled."
