after the tragedy pf Hamlet, which was supported by
the strength of the company, and received with geneal ap-
plause, the afterpiece of Life in London was repeated,
during the representation of which, an incident took
ia• e, which at first threatened to change this to ne of
frolic, noise, and nonsense, into something scions, if not
tragic. Jemmy Green had just purchased his orse 2:
Tattersall's and mounted him to try. his paces, when the
animal, to the great dismay of the tnebicians, and the
alarm of a numerous audience backed into the orebetora.
Jemmy however, (Mr. Rae) had the address to throw hi "-
self from the pony's back, before it made its exit, and the
accithnt was attend• d with no worse consequence than de-
noa.liing some of the glasses over the stare-lights. The
animal having been got on its legs, remained a quiet o spec-
tator of the farce till the end of the first act, w hen,
evident relief of the orchestra, he made his exit blindfolded,
by the door under the stage.
