- LIVERPOOL, JANUARY 29.

Mr. Huskisson's blends had a- private meeting on
Saturday, when a short letter was read by Mr. Balton,
hastily written by the Right Hon. Gentleman on Thurs-
day evening, stating that he intended, to be down in
Liverpool on the eve of the election at the latest. A
resolution was gassed, expressive of the satisfaction of the
meeting at learning that Mr. H. would be present,
nd a subscription Was entered into to defray the ex-
penses of bis election. Some of the Gentlemen present
declined putting down their names till they bad.heard
from Mr. Huskissoli an explanation of his conduct, and
they hoped that he would he able fully to vindicate
himself; bat they thought it their duty to hear him
before they committed themselves in to decided a
manner to hit support. .
. Since writing the above, we learn that yesterday a
letter was received hom Mr. Wainwright, of the Liver.
pool Office, stating that Mr. Huainan n ill be in Liver-
pool, to- attend the election, on TuOaday next, having
received permission from his phisician, Dr. Maxon,
to come down at the time, but on the espress con-
dition that the Right Honourable Gentleman should
previously retire to his seat at Butkus, and en.
titely abstain from !rosiness for a week.. The letter
adds, that Mr. Huskissoa has lately been overwhelosed
with public business. This letter emoted in the
wad a communication from Mr; Bolton, stating that
arrangements would be made for holding the election on
Monday, instead of Tuesday ; and as this notice would be
more .convenient to Mr. Huskisson, on the treilnd of,
public business, thete can be no doubt that 1l will
reach Liverpool in time for presenting himself before
his constituents on Monday next.--Lioerpool Adv.

DRURY-LANE THEATRE.

The
rst oeia
frthi. the musical performances, still popularly
called first of the musical performances, still popularly
called O although no longer possessing their
:haracter, was.given at this house last night, usder the
direction of t.fr. BISHOP. The selections embraced
almost every class and style, ancient and modern, sacred
and secular ; so that whatever other objections might
have been taken against it, there was certainly no
lack of variety. The principal performers were Madame
PASICA, Madame Fawn', and MX. BRAMAN, supported
by the talents of Miss GRANT, Miss Lova, Miss H.
CAWSZ, Mr. E. TAYLOR. Mr.Honsicasma, and two first
appearances by. Miss ATKINSON, and a Mr. MARTIN.
PASTA was in admirable voice throughout the night,
and maintained her supremacy its CIMORASA'S Deli
parlate. the Di tanti palpiti, and the exquisite duet
of Su !'aria, with Madame FICRON. The latter Lady
gave the beautiful aria Pergi la deara ornate, from
the Moses in Egypt, with great skill and effect. Besides
those pieces the sang a dashing Cavatine by COOKS,
and an Italian rondo, both well calculated to exhibit
her great facility, and the extent of her voice. The
'debutante, Miss ATIttIrsON, sang Angels ewer bright and
fair, with considerable success. Mr. MARTIN has a
tenor voice of much sweetness, and sang Lord remember
David so well as to obtain, the honour of an encore.
akanast gave his, stanza in God save the King, with
which the performance commenced, in a. manner which
convinced the audience that his powers were in their
best order, and prepared them for the treat with which
they were delighted by his after efforts. His rpging
'in Luther's flyinn was the finest possible example of the
sublime, as' far as it can be accomplished by vocal ex-
cellence. It-wasenthusiastically encored. He also gave
Manor's truly grand smut of the Battle of the Angels
with the utmost, spelndour of tone and execution.—
In the third part he sung a new spirited national air
by BustiorAsu'datory 01 OUT LORD HIGH ADMIRAL,
which was very favourably received by the audience.
The chief novelties in the compositions inttoduced Were
a fine &masts by_Hustatzt., and some selections, ably
performed by Mimi CAwsz, Miss GRANT, and Mr.
Talcum, from Mastut.'s Qiatorio of Joseph.

Dust thou despise the earth where cares abound 7

Beth with thine* upon the dewy ground?
Thy nest which thou most drop into at will ;
Those quivering wings composed, that music still!
To the lest point et vision, and beyond.
Mount, daring Warbler! that lotaprompted strain
CTwizt thee'and thine a sever-Calling bond)
Thrifts not theless the bosom of the plain ;
Yet might* the. seem, proud privilege ! to sing
All independent of.the leafy Spring
Leave to the Nightingale her shady wood ;
A privacy of glorious light is thine;
When& thou dolt pour upon the world a Hood
Of harmony. with rapture more divine;
Type of the wjse who soar—hat never roam.

fo the road, inquired of a person if any accident had happened.—
" Nothing particular, Sir," said the man, a Lady has lost her

The Bishop o! WINCH RRTZR held his fiat ordination
at the Episcopal Palace of Farnham on Sunday, whets fourteen
candidates for Orders were admitted. His Lordship delivered a

The birth-day nt his Royal Highness the Duke of
Sussex. which took piece on Sunday, when the Royal Duke en-
tered his Seth year, was celebrated generally throughout the king-

At the sailing of the packet from Lisbon on the 20th
Instant, Government workmen kid begen to erect in the Great
Square a magnificent 'tent for receiving the Puma Rainer OD his
debarkation. It is the sante as that which aterded abide and shel-
ter to his father, King Jens VI. on his arrival freat Brasil. The
Authorities of the capital an pesparing to receive the Infant with
expensive festivities and brilliant illuminations. No people on earth
are more 'avid) of their retiolcings, or prodigal of their money, on
such occasions. than the Portuguese. When Pinup 111. visited
Lisbon, soasedtinte after Idm secession, he was welcomed, though a
foreigner and an usurper, with . such magnikeent fetes, as not only'
Impoverished the Royal Treasury, but absorbed considerable
I funds collected to construct an aqueduct for supplying the city
with water.
LORD Roasoloar., whose speech at the British Catholic
Association excited so much attentioa lately, is father of me of the
Members jor Monaghan. His Lordship's mother, Me late Dowager
Lady Romerras, felt as differently front the Nob Lord on the
Catholic question, as could be well imagined. She was in the
Dublin Theatre on the Sight when the Orgasms; threw the bottle
at the Marquis WilLuisLars, and she subsequently appeared m a
witness on the trial of the rioters for that gime, to deny, on their
behalf, that any greater turbulence had taken plate than on occasion
of a common brawl in the theatre... Her Ladyship was, in one
word, a true. though not a sworn Orangewoman.
At the Lancaster Sessions last, week, Rehert Warbtick

Between the hours of two and three o'clock yesterdayl
'awning, a fire broke out in Mr. Smith's thrashing mill,
Marshall-street, Gallowgate; the cbnfiagrAtion was
alarming, and notwithstanding the prompt assistance
of the-Police and others connected therewith, it was not
subdued until half past five o'clock. The top flat also
of the adjoining premises caught fire, but from the
eigilance of the firemen it was soon got under. The
Superintendent of Police was extremely active, and
remained until the flames were extinguished. Torte-
'newly there was no grain in the mill at the time, only
a quant:ty of straw ; the grain being kept in a separate
granary. The mill, we understand, is insured.
Friday morning, about three o'clock, a fire broke
out in a coach shed at Portobello, near Edinburgh,
belonging to Mr. Ross, innkeeper, in which were three
stage coaches. The fire had attained such a height
before it was discovered, that all attempts at saving
any of the property were unavailing, the whole of the
coaches and the shed being consumed.
