Sir,-Seeing it this day,-reported in Parliamentary debates that I hiad been insane, wvith insinuations that my coinduct, yesterJay, in the lobby of this house, had-proceeded fronx something of the kind, will you allowv me to assure my friends and the public, through the medium of your paper, that I never was in such a stat,, nor ever more free from mental disease thjan now.

I i no vey esyto get damned at a summer theatre; but the author whove hemay be, succeeded mnost unequivocalIy. Madame V`estri an ~r. Liston were seen with great pleasure in The Lord of the Afanor. Mlr. 'Vlining, and MVr. WVest, and several other last year's performers, were seen too. In the musical way, there were two "1first appearances"--a Air. Huckel, and a Afr.Afelrose. Air. ffuckel (who played the part of Rashly) showed talent-at the Sans Parcht Theatre some yeare ago, in Yorkshiire characters; hut he has very little qualification in the way of a leading singer. Mr. Melrose is a gentleman who appeared a seaon r to ao a Drry.ane Heseems to need tuition very geneall, an wecan carely ongatuate him- on his success. In aminr dgre, terewer on ortwoother dcblntants, who, as the hras is,"exrtedthemelve tothe utmrost ;" andI their Ye- spetiv fiens i te fontf he oue were not behindhand with teinactivity. The entertainmwents of the evening concludedt with the ac called rish out of Water; buttele strength of the Hay- market company is not yet in operation, nor can. it be, indeed., while the patent theatres continue open. It is pity that some arrangemenlt should niot be entered into, which would l'ut an end to these dif- ferences between the win'ter and summer theatrical establishments. Both sides must be losers by the contention. In partictilar,-the pa- tent houses (under the heavy charge. at which they stand) cannot he likely to derive muchi benefit from ke6ping open throughout the year. Mladame Ronzi do Begrnis takes hier benefit at thleKinlg's Theatre on Thursday. The opera selectedl for this occasion is Rossini's Donna del Lago, and it is said tlhnt, by a special ag-ree- ment with themanagers, this is to be its only performance for the samson.

The intelligence was circulatedl with suich despatch, that by nine o'clock Upper Brook-street was lined with carriages belonging to persens. of distinction, anxious so ascertain the- truth of the reportL From inquiry, we hear that Mlrs. Ball was still alive, but had a very restless nightup to four o'clock on Satuydav morning, when she fell into a sound sleep. At 11 o'clock on Fritlay.highst, SirHenry Halford, Air. Burtin, the French Physician, MrY. Elsegoda, and Mlr. Clarke, of Saville-row, met together, and pronounced her out of danger. At-ongIst the inquirers on Saturday morning were his, Majesty, through Sir Henry Halford; the Duke and Duchess of Glocester, the Dukes of York and Richmond, L-ard andI Lady Woldehouse, Lord Cholmondeley, Count and Countess Tankerville, and a vast number of others of the nobility-~Evenig paper.

HON ESTY RE WARD KD.-A feW nligts ago a gentleman hired a hackney-coach, andl, after being tdnven so several places, paid and discharged it, On cleaning his coach the next morning, theea3achman found a packet-book, containing bank-note-s to the amnount of 1,0401., which he took to the Hackney Coach Office. The gerntleman being sent to, gave the coachman 1001. for his hionesty. MAUAr.uBOaouGH-sTXtE,ET...Yesterda,v two foreign gentlemen came to thiis office, and made an applicatio'n to F A. ROE, .Esq., the Presiding Mtagistrate, for his advice or assistance hiow to proceed under the following interesting circumstances :_- Mlr. Lewis Fogle, one of thte gentlemen in quiestion, who stated himself to be a Sicilian by birth, said, that he was the father of the exteaordinarychlil, called the Sicilian Dwarf that lisa lately been exhibited in London, and whose sudden anXtmelancboly death has thrown Ainm,elf and his wife, the child's mothier, into tihe greatest grief. ir. Fogle said, that he has for a considerable time past re- sided in the city of Dublin, where he holds a professional situation in the musical departinent of the Theatre Royal ; and, until a short time ago this child resided with Itimself and Iiis wife- in thiat capi- tal; but,mavingithere become acquainted witha meinber of tlheme- dical1profession, aDr.6Oilligan that gentleman represented the cli- mate of tnat couintry as too cold for ihe child's constitution, which wa.s thesi beg.inning to lie rather impaired, andi recommendedl the imnmediate TeCmoval of the childI to England, as a imore congenial air, and, if that change did not produce the desired effect, ultimately to remove her to the continent ; and the doctor professed to tak'e such a peculiar interest in the heaIth anid welfare of the child, that lie offered hiis service to accomipany hter on her travels, and pay the necessary attentions to her health, prToTided the parents would con.- sent to. hlia exhibiting her during the Acort staty they were likcely to make in London. The parents, from their professional engage- men ts, being pmrecludea fromn the possibility of acrompan ing their child, and having the utmost confidence in th talents anti ntegrity of Dr. Gillig~n, they consented to.tIese terms, the miore particularly as the doctor represented that his object in exhiibiting the child was niot so much the gain, likely to arise from it, but that, as a Man Of science, he was anxious ihat such an extraordinary phenomenon should not be lost to the physiological world. Dr. Gilligan ac- cordingly set out with the child, andI arAried in London about two months ago, where-he hired lodgings- for himself and his- in- teresting charge in Duke-street, St. James's,, and resided there until abouit a fortniaht ago, whien, unhappily, the childI died. This mielancholy event Dr. Gilligan never communicated to the pa- rents; nor indeed hiad thiey heard any thing from him since his de. parture from Dublin; and( thle tidings of their interesting chiild's death they only learned through thi mnedium of the public pa-pers whiceh reamhed Dublin. Mry. Fogle said that the sudlden account of her chjitd's dleath threw the mother into the most melancholy and agonizing grief, arid he himself set off instantly for Lond(on, withi a view to take charge of the child's remains, and have them poperly interre4l. He arrivedI the night before at the Saracen's Oled in Snowv-hill, whiere he is at present stopping, and immnediately went to the house where he undertstood by the public papers the child wvas exhibited at in Bond-st reet, and there he was referred to the address in Duke-street, St. Jamnes's; butt on hiis makin~ inqira this latter place for the doctor, he was infornied that tne day after the chiild's dleathi he disappeared, taking the remains with him, and has never since returned, fleavinig a debt of 251. due at the hiouse for lodgings, &c. AllIhis exertions (MIr. Foghe said}have failed to pro- cure any intelligence of the doctor's destination, or lhow he has dlis- Posed oi' the remains of hiis chiild'; but he hias been informed that Dr. Gilligan was lieard to say-in the lifetime of the elsild and while it was being exhiibited, that some members of the Colle'ge of Sur- geoni had offered, if aniy mistbrtune should occur to cause the child's death, to give him 5001. for thie remains, for the pur. Poses, of dissection and the use of t'he College, to pat amiongst, thtir collectioni of extraordinary instances of the wkims and freaks of Na. ture. Under these distressing circumstances, Mlr. Fogle entreated the magistrate's adlvice. 1Mr. RoE, who seemed to sympathize warmly with the anxious feelings of Air. FAe who was deeply alfecte'd during his apl?pica- tion, siaid, that he regretted extre,mely that he hadl not, he teared, anvy power to render him assistance for removing the remains of his chid,articularly as Dr. Gilligrin wasnot forthcomning. The great pr.bability- was, that if the child's remiains were disposed of for the purposes of the College of Surgeons, that dissection had taken place before this timne; but lie (M1r. Roe) would advise ilr. Fogle to ap., ply to the parish authorities where else chiild died, whose duty it was to see that a coroner'sinqucstwas held upon any.person meeting with a sudiden death, as this child was represented to hiave dLone. -Mrn Fogle said, thatheunderstood the child dlied in a coach on its way fromnthe exhibition-roori in Bond-street, to Dake-street. in coit-, sequence of cold wbichi it catghit. The child was never suibered by her parents to go at all into the air, unless well wrapped up. Zi. RoE saidi he should be very glad to hear that Air. Fogle had recovered the Tzemaisms oif his child, anid that his feats about its ;dis- section were iunfourided. AMr. Fogle thanked ttIe magistrate, andi assured him, that he be- lieved if it should turn out that the child's remains were thus dis- posd o,itwold avea mstserouseffctupon thle mother, whose lastinjuctio to im ws tolet er hve oe look atither dear child befre t ws cnsinedto he art; ad lie intendedl to haive taken thereminstoIreandforsht prpoe.Thie mother;4as doatingly atrectionate in her dispoIsit-io-n "and manner,as die as beauif'uj i her person and form, and diminutive in her stature. Mr. Fogle then left the office with hit friend, to proceed to the pa. rish oSfilers, whose addcress nr. Roe communicated to them.
