unfortunate business of the Qneen's :" the Nobility,
who were the chief support of the Theatre of Brigh-
ton, having been detained during the greater part of
the summer in London. When he was arrested, his
property was all taken in execution, and the theatrical

, commence" of mimic state, which hail cost him more
than 2000/. were thrown into lots by the Sheriff, and
sold for less than 601.! Ile was, at the time of this
I sale, " fretting his hour" within the ;calls of the

an agent. His schedule stated, that lie hail had ten
children to support ; but he admitted that the young
lady who is engaged at l'ovent-garden supported her-
self by her own talents. There appearing. to he no

difficulty could support himself; however, to the sur-
prise of all lie stood it out, and %%as carried to his
chair, not bring able to move. After his leg was fo-
mented for some time, and some cordial given to him
he recovered.
