the week, and it was hoped she would have passed a
good night; but, abodt eleven o'clock, she again re-
lapsed, and passed the night chiefly without sleep.
" The Physicians Were up almost the whole night,
and this morning the following Bulletin was issued :

" Throughout the whole of the day, and up to

seven o'cloac this evening, no alleviation of the symp-
toms had taken place, but her MAJESTY was, if any
thing, rather worse. The Princesses did not take
their accustomed walk, not did they receive any visi-
tors. The PRINCR REGENT was the only member of
the Royal Family, who visited her MAJESTY, and he
arrived at the Palace, from Carlton-House, about six
o'clock, and remained to dine with the Princesses.

" Sir HARRY HALFORD was under the necessity of
leaving the Palace fora 'short time, in the afternoon,
in order to visit the Princess SOPRIA, at Windsor,
and he had not returned, up to seven o'clock, though
he had been eipected before six.
" The PRINCE REOINT'S horses are ordered for
half-past eight o'clock, to return to Carlton-House."

" The Quaint had more sleep last night than the
preceding night. Her MAIRSTY continues much the
same to-day as yesterday. (Signed)

Friday the Right Hon. Mr. Secretary GRANT ar-
rived at Dublin Castle.
HANS HAMILTON, Esq. and Major-General TROT-
Tan, are among the late fashionable arrivals in Dub-
lin, from England:
The Ball at Lucan, on Monday night, was most
fashionably and numerously attended. There were
nearly two hundred persons present. The Duke of
LEINSTER and his amiable and lovely Duchess were
amongst the-first arrivals in the rooms, as well's the
latest to depart. The .dancing commenced about
eleven. The Duchess opened the Ball, not accord-
in to the habits of our modern dandy Ladies, who,
after dancing a few couples, seat themselves, con
smote, in a corner, until a new dance begins. Her
Grace, contrary to this dandyish custom, never sat
down until the set was entirely finished. The supper
and accommodation were of the best description, and
the company? did not separate until a late, or rather
an early hour.
A person passing through Alnwick, and observing
upon a door ", Haswell, surgeon, &c. remarked, that
that gentleman's name would bees-well without the IA

Ws r death of a late gallant Admiral, was followed the
lonsuing moroing with a scene somewhat ludicrous:
A brother Officer having engaged to call on him at
an appointed hour to walk out, well aware of the
scrupulous punctuality of his friend, being a little
late, when the servant presented himself at the door,
,hurriedly said to him, " Well, is the Admiral off ?"
Yes, Sir," said the poor man, "he gone r That's
odd," with in aspiration, answered the Officer, "for
he promised to wait for me !"
Sir W. W. WYNNE, Bart.'s famous horse Piscator
won, at the Shrewsbury Races, on Monday last, the
sweepstakes of 120 guineas, and the Wednesday fol-
lowing, he won the gold cup, valued at 100 guineas

Berwick for London, the first shipment of that kind
ever made at that port.
DRURY-LANE THEATRE..--The Tragedy of Romeo
and Juliet was performed, for the second time this
season, at this Theatre, on Saturday evening. Mr.
H. KEMBLE was again favourably received in Romeo.
'The new Juliet met with increased applause and en-
couragement. She displays the essential requisite of
feeling ; and even where her execution fails of due
effect, she spews a just perception of what is capable
of being effectively given. She executed some points
in the garden scene with force and delicacy. Miss
WITHAM, from the Bath Theatre, made her first
appearance in the character of Rosina, in the Opera
of that name, and was most favourably received.
Her voice is extremely sweet, clear and flexible and
her style of singing very easy and graceful. Of her
pow-er it may be sufficient to say, that she was en-
cored in the song of " Whilst with village Maids 1
stray," and repeated it apparently without the least
fatigue. A Gentleman also made his first appearance
in the character of Renville, whose claims to notice
are not of quite so high an order. His voice is agree
able, but he evidently wants practice. The rest of
the Opera was filled as usual, and received with ge-
neral applause from a very numerous audience.
Mr. KEAN arrived on Saturday night at Drury-
Lane Theatre. He drove up to the stage door in a
post-chaise and four, and was welcomed by many of
his brother actors. When Mr. KEAN left Paris, he
proceeded to Secheron, close to the Lake of Geneva,
and thence to Mont Blanc and to the Convent of St.
Bernard, where he and his fellow travellers were en-'
tertained in the most hospitable manner by the Prior
and Monks for a day and night. Mr. KEAN, observ-
ing an old spinnet in one of the apartments df the
Convent, opened it and played some little airs, which
he also sung. This highly delighted the Prior and
Fathers, who pressed him much to lengthen his visit.
Thence he returned to Paris, where FALMA again
paid him every attention in his power, and performed
his principal characters, which Mr. KEAN was so de-
sirous to see.
IMPROMPTU....-011 Mr. BRAFIAM, the Actor, being
mistaken, on his arrival at Manchester, for the Grand
Duke MICHAEL:
That BLOW& for Mrenwres Grand Duke should be teen,
Is a thing neither strange nor remote;
For, don't we all know, and the fact it molt plain,
Ile's a loan of most wonderful note I 16 a.
