Da c TWEATHE.—Last night the Tragedy
Ade.;;Via, by M. G. LEWIS, was performed at this
Tim-Aire, to a very thin audience. It is a Play too
1%271 '
•a:o++n to require any observations; nor will it,
bedr the test of criticism. BOOTH, as Michael
and COOPLI{, as Loiliair, were as respectable
a, their parts would admit of. Mrs. W. WEST, as
acquitted herself with considerable effect.
The following passage, which was exceedingly well
ed by Mr. CooPEn, was applied by the audience
tr the hire per,ectiticn of her AIAJESTY, and hailed
kith tnniultuous .i;:plobation :

Nls.ssrs. W.-writ:JAN an.l WILLIAMs, the Sheriffs, re-
.•ctnp: the calling of a Meeting of the county of

p—a very ly,lt! step," and threatens them with
:13 ,piing some other n:easures if they persist in their
refusal. The Sheriffs' answer is so brief, that no
,bridgment is necessary. It is as follows :

St'a'—ht reply to yours of this day, we have to observe,
ree.ardie4s of a:;y menace, we shall continue to act from our
.773 e of public duty. We have given out answer to the Gen-
-nen who waited upon us, and we have neither time nor in-

—Nut I.llows a letter of the Major, in which he an-
nmulces hi., intention of applying to the Duke of
l',/RTI.A ND Lord Lieutena!:r of the County, and de-
srcs that the Requisitioqs, S:c. or authenticated co-
niay he sent to him by the Sheriffs. The She-
ll, reply. that it is not their business to keep copies
return lteltiisitions—that their conduct has been
strictly correct—that if a Requisition regularly and
.npuctably signed were presented to them, they would
rail the required Meeting ; and that what Major
CARTWRIGHT calls Requisitions, were so far from
:r.aiting this title, that they were in many respects
very iI regular, particularly in having the same names
mare than once repeated in the list of signatures, and
a containing names that are not to be found in the
Preclioltiers' Book.

ACCIDENT PROM FIRE-Antas.-- Dating the latere-
picings in Leicester-square, an accident °alined
which is likely to prove fatal in its consequences
Crumpton, tailor, residing in May s-buildings,
:lary-la-Bonne, after spending his evening near the
Strand, on returning home through Leicester-square,
while in the act of passing by a young man, who was
.:st about to discharge a large horse pistol, it burst
, rieces, which flew in every direction; part of it
creck Mr. Crumpton, who collared the young man.
..'he latter struck him at the time, Mr. Crampton%
ye being completely out of the socket. On disco-
•.::ing the dreadful state he was in, the young man
apprehended and taken to St. Anne's watch-
-..lse, to which place Mr. Crutripton was supported,
• ,ble to speak ; from thence he was carried to the
‘liJdleser Hospital, where he was put to bed, and
tiiends had no account of him until the following
e4y. The young man was examined at Marlborough-
ttl eet (he is a shopman), and was merely fined twenty
.shillings, under the Act of Parliament, for letting
oif the pistol. Yesterday the Magi-trate (J. E. Co-
N txr, Eq.) who convicted him, received a certificate
.rem the Middleset Hospital, acquainting him that
Mr. Crumpton was in a very dangerous condition.—
:t am-ears that a piece of the pistol, about one inch
• A quarter in length, entered the eye upon the
u• 1; ting• of the pistol; and yesterday Mr. Crumpton
• ent the painful operation ofhaving it extracted.
