On examining the body the neck was found dislocated, a severe contusion over the left eye, the cheek quite livid and the eyelid slightly cut. The J ury'returned a Verdict, that the said John Macdon- aid was found dead on a certain marsh, called Mackenzie’s Marsh, with ‘several wounds and contusions .which occa- Sioned his death, but how or by what means, or by whom they were inflicted, no evidence thereof appears. The decea- sed has left eight children. After the Verdict had been recorded, the Jury stated to the Coro’nerkthat they felt satisfied the deceased had been thrown from his horse and his neck dislocated by the fall, as-his track could not be traced nearer to where he lay than thirty or forty yards, which convinced them that he had re- mopnted his horse, and that the horse was known to be a v1c10us one.

Charles Youna‘ (the President) delivered, to a crowded audience, last \Vedntiasdav evening, an interesting lecture upon Public Speaking, and afterwards favoured his audience with several specimens of ancient and modern oratory. The learned lecturer said, thatthe ancient orators principally excelled in exciting the passmns and swaying the multitude to their will, while the modern orators endeavoured chiefly to persuade, and to carry conviction to the minds of their auditory ;—that the one style of speaking was that of passion, the other that of reason, and therefore the more superior and effective. The Rev. Mr. Patterson will lecture next \Vednesday Evening upon Philosoply, its history—ancient and modern systems of philosophy contrasted—Com. AMATEUR THEATRE—This resort of amusement was opened on Tuesday évening last. The Parquet and Gal- lery wage both crowded to excess, by an audience, most of whom attended more in expectation of being amused with the mistakes of V the Amateurs, than of being gratified by the style of their performance. But they were vastly dis- appointed, if such were their object, for the acting was highly creditable to the spirited young men who have undertaken t this enterprise. Where all did so well, it would not, perhaps, be invidious to mention the excellent acting of the Warlock, in in the Melo-druma, and of Simon, in the Farce—~two charac- ters directly opposite in their natures, but yet performed by the same individual to the life. Also, the superior style of acting of Andrew, and of Smart, whose Jolly Beggar was sung with much spirit, and well conceived. Sandie and The ladies appeared to be 'much more at home in the Farce than in the Drama. ~ But let them persevere, and they may yet rival a Siddons or a Foote. The Theatre was fitted up very tastefully, and the Scenery was really beautifully executed, and did great credit to the painter, Mr. G. Milliier. The music was the best we have heard here for some years.

All these circumstances Conspire to spread over the theatre a dangerous fascmation, Under all this ’ show of harmless mirth and inn. at gratification, however, are concealed the most destructi evils—the most deadly poison. This mix- ture of a little good with much evil—the interspersing of a few correct sentiments with that mass of moral poison whose only effect can. be to call into active ex'ercise the depravity of the heart, towether with the countenance and support of a few estimable, and, as far as worldly virtue goes, excellent persons; all tliis'biitserves as a lure to draw many to the same for payment.

And are not these blasphemies and impurities listened to with gay and careless indifference, if not with applause and admiration? What can these things mean, but either that sin is not that abominable thing which God hateth, or that He will not require it, or that he hath forgot— ten, and hideth his face, and will neVer see it? What, Sir, must be the eject of such scenes, but to familiarize the mind to the'thought and practice of Sill ?—-to Weaken the sense of its deformity and danger—to break down the remaining scruples—to sear the conscience—and t0 embolden the hesi— toting youth to commit it with daring presumption and with a high band? It is the sure tendency of the tlieatfe to cause sin to be considered rather as a thing to he laughed at, than as a great and dreadful evil, to be constantly hated, and feared, and fled from. Nor is this the whole, or_ the Worst—— sin is,not only made a mock of, but is glorged in, and espe- cially the sin of licentious prqfligacy.
