• THE NATIONAL REGISTER. 146 COURT AND WORLD OF 1 ASHION. On Sunday, the following Bulletin of our vene rable and afflicted Sovereign, was eNhibited at St. James's Palace : " WINDSOR CASTLY., Nov. 16.—His Majesty continues nearly in the same state." If .the private accounts from Windsor are to be relied on, his Majesty is become so deblitated as scarcely to be able to leave his room. Dr. J. Willis has again been called, in. ONEINANO The accident which befel his Royal Highness the Prince Regent, last week, while dancing with the Princess Charlotte at Oatlands, was more serious than was at first reported. Two tendons of the toot, it is said, Were broken.—His Royal Highness still remains at Oatlands, but is so much reco vered that he is e4ected in a few days at Yoik House. The Princess Charlotte of Wales, it is said; is to occupy the apartments at Kensington Palace, on the removal of the Princess of Wales to Hampton Court. The Duke of CUMBPILAND will leave town in a few days, to take the coromand of his regiment. Two young Persian Princes are now in 1 Amami for their education, brought over by S i r Harford Jones, to whose care they were entrusted. They are the sons of the Prime Minister to the King of Persia, the eldest about IS, and his l;; ether 16 .ears of age. Government have taken for them a house in Half Moon-street. The Lord Chancellor has been unable to preside in the Court of Chancery for several days past, hay. ing been attacked with an erysipelas. He was consi derably better yesterday. Tlie Duchess of Marlborough con tinues in a ver y alarming 'state. Since her Grace's illness, she ex pressed a desire to see her eldest son, the Marquis of Blandford, whom she had not seen for these 18 years—when a happy reconciliation took place, to the great satisfaction of the family. We understand that Mrs. Jordan has separated her- KW from the Duke of Clarence, in consequence of an offence which .he has conceived at his Royal Highness's making an offer of his hand to Miss Long , The Duke, it is said, is to spend some time at Windsor, whence he proceeds to Portsmouth ; nor does he return to Bushy, till the final departure of Mrs. Jordan.—Mt s. Jordan has lived with the Duke one-and.twenty years, and had by him ten children, the whole of whom are living. Mr. Wellesley Pole, it is said, has been at length recognized as the received lover of Mks. Tylney Long, whose hand and fortune have for some time been the grand object of matrimonial ambition in high life.

On the final close of: the poll, there appeared upon the whole a majority of nearly 200 in favour of Lord ARCHIBALD HAMILTON, Who was accordingly dc aired duly elected. DRA MATIC REGISTER. LYCEUM. —....... 0 I am really at a loss to account for it, but positively almost every new piece appears worse than all by which it has been preceded. After the rubbish that was played six months ago, I did not think the ingenuity of man could have produced any thing worse. The gradations of wretchedness are inconceivably numerous, and though it appears to me impossible that greater trash can be furnished than that with which we are already fa miliar, I will not take upon myself to say we have yet seen their end. A certain number of stupid dialogues were on Wednesday gone over by the actors of this theatre, in a pointless thing brought out as a farce, under the title of 46 The Rtjection; or, ELvry Body's Business." This silly thiug contained nothing that was even tolerable in any part of it, and it was in the end so completely damned, that the managers have not as yet dared to play it again. The manner in which this piece was disposed of, wa; rather singular. As it e,eems to lead to 4 new system in this theatre, at lean, I shall transcribe the account given of it in The ilforiong Post, as the facts are there correctly stated at length. When the curtain was falling, Mr. lit.:ea mr came forward to ann , unce its ,eciut Performance, but was opposed by lo d cries of " No, No ! Off ! &c. as often .as be attempted to speak. Unable to give it out for this evening, without ap pearing to insult the audience, he patlied, and, while thus ap parently doubtful how to act, he was beckoned to the side, and left the stage. The audience now seemed to expect they were to b.: treated with some new stage trick, fur when he returned, a minute after, with a paper in his hand, they seemed unwilling to be and a t i t l e ovb, e t d o t h or i e l. ad At the isoonape paper s hewith c w o u h l i d c h b be e h h e a a rd db , e h e e n begged furni ~h e t d o . This was assented to, and he accordingly proceeded to read as 1 follows :--- 44 LADIES ANt GENTLEMZN, "To obtain your applause being alone the wish of the Mae nagers and Author, they desire to ascertain if it is your wish that this Piece shall be repeated ?—(Loud cries of " No ! No !" 44 0 . ! off .1" porn all parts if the Theatre.)—" If it is not, it be withdrawn."—(Cries " Bravo !" and universal s : ; „,,t s a irplause•) Mr. DECA M P was now retiring, whim he seemed to be in structed to put the question again, upon which he came fur -ward and said— " Will you then, Ladies and Gentlemen, allow me to say this Farce will he repeated ?" 1 lere the storm burst out again with all its former fury. Mr. cAme bowed, an.l retired; and the Piece, of course, is to be con,idertd as wit b &awn. . COVEN 1-GARDEN THEATRE. At this Theatre the only novelty of the week was the appear ance of M r. 13 a 0.% n nu x sT, from Sadler'sWells, in the character of Paul, in the mu,ical.entertainment of Paul and Virginia. was eaVuttlely ♦yell received, and his unassuming manner and pleasingly placid style of singing, entitle him to much praise. As the successor of INcr.r.ooN, however, it must be observed, he is lamentably deficient. He has neither the energy nor the harmony necessary to follow him with any chance of success. G.
