DRURY-LANE. The attractive bill of fare issued by Mr. BiSROP, drew a very numerous audience to this Theatre last night.—WEßeit's Battle of Waterloo was repeated with great effect. His Overture to Euryanthe was finely exe cuted, also a selection from his Preciosa (now getting up as a Drama at Covent-Garden), which is a very clever composition. McnoLsow played a Concerto on the flute, and Kiesawarroa a fantasia on the violin, in a very superior manner. Da BEGNIS and his amiable spouse delighted the audience. BRAIIAM gave Total Lelipse, with matchless expression and feeling ; his Bonnie Lassie was, as usual, hailed with rapture; Miss nAtirioN sung 1 diana care to tell exquisitely. In the third part, Mr. BRAUASS sung the following national song, with uhcommon energy and feeling. The volume of voice which he threw into the ad lib. passage, at the words, " The Navy and the Army," equalled his happiest efforts in his " Scots tuba ha'e." Though war no more, with ruthless band, Spreads g room and terror round, Be not forgot the gallant band That Albion's glory crowned.

Yesterday, a man, who stated his name to be Marti* Ana, and that he was a master smith, in a small way of business at Harrow, came to Bow -street, and said he had to claim the protection of the Magistrates for himself and family, and his property, against the violence of a great number of the young gentlemen at Harrow School, who had for several days past assembled about his dwelling, with bludgeons and other weapons, and not only threatened violence to him and his son, but had actually demolished part of his house. Mr. Misutut,t, the Sitting Magistrate, who appeared to regard surfs an accusation against such an establishment with considerable surprise and sorrow, ordered the complainant to be sworn, and desired him to tell the whole of bis story, and to be careful to adhere to the truth. The complainant then made a statement of the transaction : Last Friday afternoon, as he and his son, a youth of fifteen, were at work in their little shop at the foot of Harrow Hill, a party of the young Gentlemen, then passing along the road, began to amuse theniselves by throwing stones at the pantiles with which his shop is covered. Some of the pantiles were broken by their so doing, and his son very naturally, but very presumptuously, called out to the young Gentlemen, " What are you at there?" To which the young Gentlemen, each for himself, very sphitedly replied, " As my —!" The young blacksmith ventured to tell them, that they had better not throw anymore stones, or he would report them to the Head Master, Dr. Butler. " A row ! a rout!" shouted the young Gentlemen to some of their companions higher up the road; and In a fen minutes the shop was surrounded by twenty or thirty of them, who demanded that the lad th. mlei be delivered up to them. The blacksmith had taken an opportunity, during the go 'during, of hiding his son behind the forge.belluws, and the young Gentlemen went away for that time, declaring they would give him a " good &kin," whenever they caught him. The blacksmith, • knowing their temper, sent his son to London next day, in order that he might be out of their way, and so escape the " licking" they had promised him ;„and it was well he did so; for about four o clock that atrkrnoon, upwards of fifty of the young Gentlemen cattle down tn 4 isis shop, each armed with a thick stick or bludgeon, and demanding that his son should come out and be " licked." He assured them that be had sent his son to London to pay his coal bill. They told him it was a He; and were proceeding to search the premises, when an alarm was given that one ot' the Masters was coming along the road, and they instantly went away in different directions—some of them biding their bludgeons ander their coats, and others throwing their's away into the hedge on the road-side. Several of these bludgeons were picked up, found loaded with lead. The blacksmith now thought it was high time to seek for some protection, and on Monday he sent his wife to make complaint to Dr. Butler. One of the young Gentlemen was punished in conse quence of this complaint ; and the same afternoon more than a hundred and fifty of them again repaired to the blacksmith's shop, armed with bludgeons as before. The blacksmith saw them coming, and took refuge in the public-house, opposite his shop. The young gentlemen surrounded the public-house ; and the blacksmith appear ing with the landlord and others in the passage, some.of the leaders cried out, 0 That is the -- who told tales! Turn hint out. that we may batter out his brains, and make an end of him !" So saying. they attempted to rush in, but the landlord closed his doors, declaring that they should not enter his home, and in the midst of the clamour, Dr. Butler and the Rev. Mr. Evans ap proached the spot on horseback, in returning from a ride. The great body of the young gentlemen ithmediately scampered off towards Ihrrow, but the blacksmith came forward from the house, and claimed the protection of Dr. Butler and Mr. Evans. The Doctor instantly rode after the young gentlemen, and having overtaken them, he addressed them on the impropriety of their conduct, and threatened that if any of them interrupted the blacksmith again, he would instantly expel them from the school. This threat allayed the storm for that night, but on the following afternoon (Tuesday) thirty or forty of the most determined among them, stW armed with bludgeons, and one of them with pistols, surrounded the black smith's house, and actually broke into it in search of his son ; whilst others again surrounded the public-house, demanding that the father should be given up to them, and deelaring that if they did not batter his brains out now, they would some future time. Mr. Manson:4 told him be might rest assured that he should have protection. The worthy Magistrate then gave directions that thy. intormation, as taken in writing, should be enclosed to Dr. Butler, the H e ad Master, and that Ellis, one of the principal officers, should be the bearer of it, with directions to act as circumstances alight require. Ellis set off with the complainant fur Harrow, in the course of the afternoon. THIS DAY. A number of highly respectable persons attended at this Office this morning, with the expectation of h-aring an examination of the young Gentlemen (belonging to the above school), concerned in the outrdge at Harrow, on the family of Mr. Jones, of that piac,!.— Ellis, the Officer, on his arrival at the village yesterday afternoon , proceeded immediately to make known the purport of his visit, which seems to have struck terror into the whole school, and t.) have created no small degree of alarm in the breasts of other per sons. While Ellis was engaged in making inquiries into the affair, and taking the necessary precautions to bring the offenders to jus tice, Dr. Butler and the Masters of the school had a consultation, ' and eventually Mr. Junes was sent for, who accurdingly attended at the schoaL The nature Qf this interview the Officer is un acquainted with, and the only fact that he csuld state was, that Mr. Jones, on his return; told him, that he was satisfied with what had been done, and be (the Officer) need give himself no farther trouble in the matter, at the same time declining to give him any information relative to the arrangement of it. Thus situated, Ellis bad no alternative but to return to town, which he ac cordingly did; and on entering the office this day, shortly after twelve o'clock, Sir RICHARD Brame eagerly inquired what he had done in the matter?— Ellis said, " It's all settled, Sir Iticnaan." Sir iticsman Busetz--" Settled! how cats that be' That's very strange Ellis then informed Sir RSCIIAIRD of the above facts, which drew fitin the worthy Chief Magistrate sonic strong expressions of dis• apprnbatien ut the result. lie declared that nothing in the world was haulier from his thoughts than the having so great an outrage *• hushed ;" and regretted that the Officer bad suffered such a course to be pursued. The complainant he considered, in particu tar, was very much to blame in the course he had pursued, fur really public justice required that some example should have beer made, aid he trusted the matter yet would not rest kete. ROYAL UNIVERSAL INFIRMARY FOR CHILDREN. The Ninth Anniversary of this truly etcellent Charity was celebrated yesterday, at the City of London Tavern, Uishnpsgate•street, when nearly two hundred persons sat down to dieter, the Right Hon. Jost GARRATT, Lord Mayor, and President of the Institution, in the Chair. His Lordship was supported by Lord BOLTON, CRARLEs BkRCLAy, Esq. V.P. ItoRERT HEDGER, Esq. Dr. CoPLAND, Dr. VETCH, C. N. PALMER, Esq. the 'ter. Dr. KENNY, etc. &C. Numerous and praiseworthy as the charitable insti tutions in the Metropolis are, there is not, perhaps, one which is directed to a moie important object. or which affords the opportunity of ding 'so much good at so little expense as the 'loyal Universal Infirmary for Children : this will be at once apparent when we state, that although it was only instituted in 1816, and may literally be considered as an infant establishment in more senses than one, yet, in nine yens, it has dispensed its blessings to nearly 60,000 children, the offspring of indigent parents. Of whom there have been cured and relieved 55,220 Have died r ,255 • Have been vaccinated 2,291 Are at this time on the Books and under cure 602 Of these 13,000 were relieved during the la , t year, at an expense of only £5OO, or little more than nine pence each. What father or what mother knowing this, and possessing the means, will deny support to such a charity, when for one guinea the donor may annually rescue from twenty to thirty of the afflicted children of his necessitous neighbours, dependants, workmen, ser vants, and labourers, from the ravages of disease and premature mmtality ? nay, by such well-timed liber ality, the progress of disorder would, in many children, be entirely stopped, and the disorder itself cured . ; and in others, the seeds of future suffering and disease would be eradicated by the timely exertion of professioeal skill! This Institution, which was founded by the late belie volent J. B. Davis, and is under the immediate patronage of his Majesty, directs its efforts to the cure and prevention of diseases among the Children of the Poor, in London and its extensive Suburbs, and has re duced, upon a very large scale, as the Bills of Mortality shew, in every district of the Metropolis and its adja cent villages, the number of premature deaths, under twelve years of age, which annually occurred previous to its establishment. Experience has strewn that the Metropolis abounds with objects, under twelve years of age, that requite to undergo surgical operations, and who frequerstly cannot gain admittance into the Public Hospitals until their cases have become aggravated by delay. It is therefore proposed to make a provision for this class of sufferers, in the Infirmary lately erected on the Waterloo-bridge-road, for tle reception of Sur gical Patients into the House, as toms as the funds will possibly permit. Hence this Charity now partakes of the nature of an Infirmary, as well as of a Dispensary —the former for Surgical Cases—the latter for the ad ministration of Advice and Medicines, in every case (with the exception of Small-pox) within the Physician? province. It is also one peculiar feature of this Institution, that it is open in cases of danger to a first application for relief without recommendation. Such is the Institution !t, friends met yesterday to support. The Lotto MAYOR entered the *twin about half-past five &cluck, and dinner was immediately served up in the style of excellence usual to this - establishment. The cloth having been removed, Iknedietus sit Dais was then sung by the professional Gentlem e n p resent. Maws Loan MA then p " The Health of the Royal Patron of the Institution, The ng."—Tbree times three. Anthem--" Clod save the Ring." The following toasts were then drank—" The Duke of York, Vice-Patron; the Doke of Clarence, and the Royal Family." Glee—" Now the bright mailbag star." " Army and Navy."—" Rule, Britannia." The LORD MAYOR then begged leave to propose to the company a toast, which be was sure would meet with their unanimous approval. The Institution, the Anniversary of which they were then met to celebrate, needed no eulogium from him. When be reflected on the great objects proposed by its benevolent founder, and when he considered the extensive benefits which bad already been effected by the operations of the Insti tution, he could not but look forward with a confident assurance that its prosperity would progress, and its usefulness be more widely diffused. No less than 60,000 children had been the objects of the care of this Cha rity in the course of the shot t period of nine years, and this wbeu its means were limited, and its _power of doing good consequently small. The loss which the Institution had recently sustained by the death of the benevolent founder of this Charity, must be seriously regretted by all. He felt, however, convinced, that great as this loss was, still the Institution would not be suffered to become less extensively useful because de prived of the assistance of that good man, Dr.J. B. Davis. When the number of children annually born in this great metropolis, the offspring of poor persons, for whose benefit the Institution was intended was consi dered, it formed a strong ground for upholding the Charity; but there was another ground. The health of such a large metropolis as this depended much upon the circumstances of its inhabitants. Where the houses were so very numerous, and the population so dense, many diseases were likely to be generated ; and it therefore became a paramount duty on those who could afford it to endeavour to preserve the health of the lower orders, and thereby secure the whole of the inhabitants from those serious effects which too fre quently occur in large and crowded cities. In refe rence to the state of the funds, he would not disguise the fact that the Institution was labouring under diffi culties. The contractor for the building had kindly suffered eleven thousand pounds toremain at an interest of only three and a half per cent for four or five years. The sum of '2,0001. however, would enable the Charity to pay off this debt, and also the loans, amounting to gether to about 6001. which had been made without any interest being required. He therefore hoped the friends of the Society would not allow their exertions to abate, but to apply themselves earnestly to the sup port of an Institution which was in every way worthy of being supported. He begged leave to propose— " Prosperity to the Royal Universal Infirmary for Children." The toast WAS drank with much applause. Song—" My sin fireside. -Mr. Uroadhuist. The LORD MAYOR then read a letter from his Royal Highness the Duke of York, expressing his regret at not being able to attend at the anniversary dinner, o w ing to other very pressing engagements. The health of Lord Bolton" was next given. His Lordship shortly returned thanks. Glee—" When winds breathe soft." " Charles Barclay, Esq." who returned thanks in an able speech, in which ha made a powerful appeal in behalf of the limitation. Sheriff Brown"—Who returned thanks. "Song—" Londou Improvements."—Mr. Fitswilliassu Charles Nicholas Palmer,bq." Thi. Gentleman begged toetptess his thanks kir the honour conferred on him, and to propose the health of their highly-respected President, the Lord Mayor. He had the. honour of hi< Lord-hip's personal friendship ; and he could safely affirm of him that he was worthy of being the presiding Magistrate, over what it might be our pride and our boast to call the Metropolis of the World—where all things were to be folind conducive toluman happiness, and where too, he would say, every thing was to be found that could alleviate human mi sery. It had been stated that this Institution was much in debt, but it should be recollected that humanity was also much indebted to this Institution. If every Gen tleman present would determine to get 10 or 15 friends to become subscribers of each, he was sure that at the next anniversary they would have the pleasure of hearing that the whole of the debts of the Institution were paid off, and that the Charity was proceeding , in its benign operations without anything to impede its way. He begged to propose— " The health of the Right lion. the Lord Mayor."—Drank with great applause. His LORDSHIP, in returning thanks, stated that the Charity had increased beyond even the most sanguine expectations entertained of it, and called upon the company to exert themselves to procure Members. The health of Thomas Lett. Esq. who returned thanks. The memory of Dr. J. B. Davis, of whom it was justly said, that in feeding the lamp of chalky, be exhausted 'the lamp of life.— Drank in solemn silence. The following toasts were then d r ank— The Chaplains, the Medical Officers and the Secretary of the Institution, with thanks far their exertions. The I:ono MAYOR and several of the Gentlemen around him shortly afterwards left the Chair, which was taken by W. Hwoaa, Esq. who presided during the remainder of the evening. The donations and subscriptions received during the last year were read by the Secretary, and amounted to upwards of 4501. The evening was enlivened by some excellent singing,' , and the dinner and wines did credit to Messrs. Peacock and Terry, the proprietors of the Tavern. CATHOLIC EAI A NCIPA 110,V. .. The following k an official copy of Sir F. BURDITT'S Resolutions. 1. That it appears to this Committee, that by certain Acts passed in the Parliaments of Great Britain and Ireland respectively, certain declarations and affirmations are required to be snide, as qualifications for the enjoyment of certain offices, franchises, and civil rights therein mentioned. 2. That such parts of the said oaths as require a declaration to be made against the belief of transubstantiation, or that the invoca tion or adoration of the Virgin Mary, or any other Saint, and the sacrifice of the Masai as used in the Church of Rome, are supersti tious and idolatrous, appear to this Committee to relate to opinions merely speculative and dogmatical, not affecting the allegiance or civil duty of the subject, and that the same may therefore safely be repealed. 3. That it appears to this Committee, that in several Acts passed in the Parliaments of Great Britain and Ireland respectively, a certain Oath, commonly called the Oath of Supremacy, is re quired to be taken as a qualification for the enjoyment of certain offices, franchises, and civil rights, therein mentioned. 4. That in the said oath aid•declaration is contained, that no fo reign Prince, Person, Prelate, State, or Potentate, ought to have any jurisdiction, power, pre-eminence, or authority, ecclesiastical or ariaritual, within these realms. 5. That it appears to this Committee, that scruples are enter tained by his Majesty's Roman Catholic subjects, with respect to' taking the said oath, merely on account of the word " spiritual" being inserted therein ; and that for the purpose of removing such scruples, it would be expedient to declare the sense in which the said word is used, according to the injunction issued by Queen ;!:;:ttolt. in the first year of her reign, and recognized in the Act of the fifth Of her reign, ,"d which, as explained by the 57th of the Articles of the Church of England, Imports Lnerely, that the Kings of t►is realm should govern all estates and degrees cylninitted to their charge by Gon, whether they be ecclesiastical or temporal, and restrain with the civil sword the stubbcrn and evil doer. 6. Thant is tin opinion of this Conuniuee, that such act of re weal and explanation should be accompanied with such exceptions and regulations as may be found necessary for preserving unalter ably the Protestant succession to the Crown, according to the Act for the further limitation of the Crown, and better securing the rights and liberties of the subject, and for maintaining inviolate the Protestant Epi.copal Church of England and Ireland, and the doc trine, government, and discipline thereof; and the Church of Scot laud. and the doctrine, worship, government, and discipline thereof as the same are by law respectively established. Mr. CARRUTHERS, a Scotch Missionary in the Crimea, has been the instrument of converting a number of Tartars, who intend forming themselves into a distinct colony.

The late Mr. Simco, the antiquarian book.eller, be queathed his valuable collection of prints, &c. to the British Museum, upon condition of the Trustees paying his family 5001. which the latter declined doing, con ceilillg them to be overvalued. They have since, how-' ever, been sold by auction for upwards of 9001. The Gamekeeper of the Honourable FREDERICK WEST, having shot a hare one day last week, near Denbigh, carried it home, a considerable distance, be fore he thought of removing the entrails; when be proceeded to perform this duty, the first object present ing itself, to his great surprise, was a young leveret, quite alive, and so far capable of imbibing nourishment, from milk and other food, as to insure its perfect re covery, although, upon examination, it bad received one of the grains of shot which had deprived the little animal of its parent. Last week an accident occurred, which had nearly proved fatal to Lord .1 . :ORRINGTON. His Lordship was leaving his seat (Yote's Court) in a gig, when the horse was startled by a passing waggon. The horse of the gig ran upon a heap of stones, and threw his Lordship out, and the wheel crushed his hat and tore it from his head. Fortunately, the wagoner stopped his horses in time, or from the situation an which Lord TORRINGTON was thrown, the wheels must have put a period to his Lordship's existence. A general 46 strike," as it is termed, has recently taken place in Maidstone among the journeymen mechanics. The carpenters have obtained an increase in their wages from 225. per week to 245. the plumbers from 225. to 245. Thee are the wages to which they were reduCed in the late period of low prices: The bricklayers ask for an increase of from 245. to 275.
