manufactured twelve pairs of scissors, the smallest ever

SLAVES in I:lnternat.—The following account of
the meritorious conduct of the Slaves oa the Brothers
and Woodlands plantations, the property of JAM=
MslunoY, Esq. of Glasgow, during the late revolt in
Demerara, is highly satisfactory. The letters are from
Mr. BUCHANAN and Mr. HAIRY, of that Colony, and
also from the managers of these estates In the ab-
sence of the managers, who had been called away to
join the militia, as soon as martial law was proclaimed,
the Slaves on these plantations armed themselves with
such weapons as they could find ; and, When the rebels
approached with flaming torches to set fire to the build-
ings, most courageously defended their master's pm-
petty, resisted and repelled the furious attempts of the
assailants, and in which contest some of them, particu-
larly the Chief Drivers, who headed the gangs, were se-
verely hurt. After having beat off the insurgents, and
reserved not only their master's property, but their
own, from destruction, they continued to carry on the
labours of the plantations the same as if the white peo-
ple had been living among them. Such conduct
will, we have no doubt, be rewarded by their generous
proprietor, and receive the thanks of the Colony, as an
inducement and encouragement to others to follow their
example, should any such melancholy occurrence ren-
der their exertions again necessary."

THE THEATRE&

DSURY-LANE.
Last evening the Tragedy of Virginias again afforded
MACREADY an opportunity of exerting his energies in the
Roman Hero, and the applause was commensurate to the
excellence of the actor. TRIM!, WALLACE, and Mrs.
Wear, acquitted themselves with all their wonted abi-
lity. The Cataract of the Ganges wai the Afterpiece.
It is now completely established in public favour, and
will, doubtless, have what is called a rain. Hitherto the
House has ove►rf_oeoed every evening it has been acted.

COVENT-GARDEN.
The Coniedy of Errors was performed last night
with much applause. Miss Ettotr was the reptesenta-
tire of Adriana, and was rapturously encored in two of
the airs allotted to the part. Miss TREK was no less,
successful in the character of Lucian ; and the Opera
altogether went off with infinite edat.
