" Mr .

Babxeey . —This lady , -who was for many , years a brilliant ornament of : the tragic stage , died on Monday , morning , at her residence , Ko . 11 , ¦ "Woburn-square , after a severe and protracted illness , which lasted for seven years . Her disorder was a general paralysis , but her consciousness was perfect np to tbe moment of her dissolution . The deceased was formerly Miss Smith , who , m 1806 , made her first curtsey to a London audience in Old Covent-garden . During the very first season of her prosperous career , Mrs . Siddons returned to the store , and on the same boards ; and the best proofof Mrs . Bartley * 8 genius that can be given IS , that they played alternately .. dftcta and Jane Short

    without detriment , to the fame of the younger actress . On the destruction by fire of Covent-garden Theatre ,: in 1808 , Miss Smith accepted an engagement on iondon terms in Dublin . She remained in Ireland for three years ; at the end of which period she made her second appearance at Coventgarden , in 1811 : Here she remained , first , foremost , and without a rival , until . 1814 , when she transferred her services to new Drury-lane . Soon after eke became Mrs . Hartley , the / wife' of the excellent comedian . Mrs . BarUey died in the 65 th year of her age . She who numbered Joanna Baillie and Sir "Walter Scott among her warmest Mends and fondest admirers , ¦ . and who was summoned to "Windsor Castle and Buckingham House to charm the ' ear of royalty by her incomparable elocution , can have been no ordinary-. woman—no . ordinary actress .

    MobmittjstheBaskhupiciCoubt . —On Friday nig ht Mr . William Atkinson , the respected messenger in Mr . Commissioner Evans * court , 'expired at his residence , ^ 7 obdside lodge , Norwood . : The deceased wasin his fifty * niiith year , and has left a -wife , but no children ,, to deplore his loss . Be had been a messenger from the time of the court being established , under Lord Brougham ' s Amendment Act , in 1832 , and is said to have amassed considerable property . His successor , pro teni ., is Edmund Dubois , bis late clerk . Tho grim iyrant has thus swept off' three official assignees , a messenger , and nearly a dozen messengers' assistants , within a few months . - . ' I

    ExiEAOBniKiBT Case . —Asingularoccurrence took placeon'the llth iust ., on the Eastern Counties Bailway . -Two gentlemen were travelling in a se ^ oond-clas 3 carriage , when , at one of the intermediate stations between Colchester and London , a welldressed lady " about" twenty-six , with an infant apparently-about two months old , stepped in . She stated she -had been travelling in a first-class carriage , but being taken ill she did not like remaining alone . One of the gentlemen proved to be a Mr . -a surgeon , from the nei g hbourhood of Bury St . Edmund ? , who intimating his profession , inquired the nature of the lady ' s ilbess , she replied by attributing it chiefly to the " fatigue of travelling and weakness , " which was borne out by the delicate

    and . pallid state of the countenance ; . Of course , every attention was paid to the invalid and her child by the travellers—wholittle suspected the stratagem their fair and interesting , but deceptive companion -Was about to . play upon them—the lady several times expressing a fear that she might let fall the baby , which had been nursed by both the gehtle-Hien , and also laid upon the seat . "U pon arriving at the terminus she begged to have the child taken out , which-wa 3 done by Mr .- —— , while she went off the platform in gneat of a servant ; she expected to meet herewith a . carna |[ eJ During this time the other gentleman - —r- of-Liverpool , was engaged

    -wiUi his luggage ; -the' lady was no more to be seen , and ' pursuit proved useless . The consternation , of the g entleman at being thus burdened may easily be imagined . Ultimately the child was taken to a friend's , whose wife discovered about its little person a letter / containing two £ 10 Bank of England notes , requesting that the child might receive every caie , and expiessmg an assurance that it would , if the possessor of it could know the anguish and circumstances of its mother ; and if a certain advertisement were inserted hi The limes ,-with , the address of those who had charge of it , all would ultimately be maderight . The child was expensively dressed . > - -. - -- :- ; ; '¦¦ = ¦; - -.--- ^ - ¦> - ¦; ' <• :- ¦ ' .-
