DRURY-LA NR.

The old Comedy of Love wakes a Alen ; or, ne
Fop's Fortune, was let night revived at this Theurer
after a lapse of several year 4, with considtre le sums,
Mr. W. FARREN played his old part, Don Lewis, Id.
mirably ; he was throughout a great suppin to the
Comedy. JON es gave the part of Cfodio all the advartqs
it could receive; it has been in the hand. r.t poop,
WOODWARD, and LEWIS. and lest nothing of its ob_
parterre by being entrusted to their legitimate %itchier.
Comma personated the loving Student Carlos wi h much
ability and discrimination ; and Mrs. W. WEST and
Miss E. Tau are also entitled to praise fur their mitres
in the Comedy.

COVENT. G A ADEN.
The Tragedy of Whelk am acted a numerous
audience at this Theatre last night, when the part of the
Moor was sustained by Mr. KLAN, with all the dept
of passionate vigour which marked the moretriumphint
period of his career. with occasional instances of total
feeling and felicitous execution such as were worthy
of his tame, and highly gratif)ing to all who witnessed
Iris exertions. These were not only observable in his
celebrated third act, but the fearful workings of the
passion after it has taken full possession of his soul,
up to the consummation of its terrible catastrophe, was
finely, and often most powerfully delineated. Mr. Kw
was supported by Mr. WARMS in logo, and Mr. /Canals
in Caul°. The former of these performances has Ire-
quently merited a qualified commendation, and upon
the latter the whole voca,sulary of compliment and
panegyric bas been deservedly exhausted. There is
another piece of acting in this tragedy, at the sam
Theatre, which, though seldom noticed. is excellent is
its kind; we allude to the Roderigo of FARLEY. Mess
JARMAN was the Desckniosur, and Miss LACEY played
Emilia with considerable force.

The Tragedy was followed by The Barber of St-
olle, rupported by the same cast which has given it
a renewed popularity at this house since the commence-
meat of the season.

BRIGHTON MUSICAL FESTIVAL, 0cr..39.

The first day's performance of the Grand Musical
Festival, in aid of the Funds of the County Hospital,
took place yesterday morning in the new Charch.of
St. Peter's, on a scale which had never before been st.
tempted in this county. The bills announced that lag
performers, exclusive of the principal singers, would
be employed : and, from the appearance of the orchew
tea. we should imagine that the promise was fulfilled.
The morning's performance was, of course, entirely
sacred, selected from the usual sources. The first part
included the introduction and opening of the Detliqat
Te Dem, the Overture and Dead March in Saul, with
HANDBL's Funeral Anthem, and Bovca's Duet. Here

rest and beautiful chaste mariner by which the regular

racterises all her performances of sacred music; BRA-
MAN followed her is l otal Eclipse. from Sammie—a
specimen of pathetic musical declamation in which he
is unequalled, and which he never sang better thin ne
this occasion. Gralias Agimus was sung by MAJan.e
CANADOIII immediately afterwards. and though the
transition from HAMM to GUOLISLIII was 5 .newhdt
abrupt, and rather marred the effect, the esecution of
the sir was highly creditable to the singer. Mr. Pitt-
tars sang a composition Irons Si, 181'11/MK% Maids-
giving exceedingly well; and the first pact concluded
with the magnificent march, air. and chorus Irian

perfection the extraordinary flexibility of voice with
which he is gifted. 13111411.111 exerted himself with great

unusual degree, in a selection from lIATDN's Smogs.
in which she and Mr. PHILLIPS sustained the leading
parts. But the most brilliant gem, not only of impart*
i but of tee whole concert, W 45 Miss Paroles air float

refined taste and pathos, is probably without a parallel
in music. The effect of the concluding line, 0 righteuus
iistivehthy Will be dome, must be heard before it can
be appreciated. Laos splendid Gloria concluded the
performance, which appeared to give universal satis-
faction,

THE EARL OF W;NCHUSEA.

-~-- .

On referring to the last edition of ge Burke's Peerage
and Haronetageo" it will be seen that the present Earl,
George Finch-Hatton,. came to the title on the de-
mise of his cousin, the late Earl, who died (loathe 2d
day of August, 1826, 44 when the honoun devolved,"
to quote the above authority, 6, on George Finds-
Ritiop, the present Peer (eldest son of the late George
Finch-Hatton, Esq. of Eastwell-park, io the county of
Kent, by Elizabeth, eldest daughter of the Eail of
Mansfield ; which George Finch-Hatton, was son and
heir of the Hon. Edward Finch, Esq. M.P. for the Uni-
versity of Cambridge, in 1727, fifth son of Daniel,
second Earl of Nottingham, and sixth Earl of Winchil-
sea, who assumed the additional surname of Hatton, in
compliance with the testamentary injunction of his ma-
rernal aunt, the Mon. Anne Hatton). The present Earl
of Winchilsea has one brother and three sisters, namely,
Daniel Heneage, in Holy Orden, married, in 1825, Lady Louisa
Greville, second daughter of the Hon. Fulke Greville and Louisa
Countess of Mansfield.

Marquis of Exeter. The motto—" Virtu' tutissima cassis. '
