GEORGE LTA Lt., Rig. Chairman. The CII.IIII.IIAN hritfly explained the obiaet of - the 'Meeting, after which the Seertt icy read the Report of the Committee. The elfalltUAN then said, that the Committee bad neither been ne 4 ligent nor iii.ttentive to the interests O: the Ship-owners, and if any Gentleman far any exclamation of aly part of the Report, he would..frel happy in affording them every in or mationin his ',Owen, —tie wished t.) di' ect Limir attention to the Maritime .

The CHAIRMAN EA d, the reduction 'in the 'rates of pilotage was eel tainly inadequate to their expectations. There were in all one hundred and thirty•five Pilots Who did duty in rotation, and the amount of each man's earning was from 110/. to 1201. per annum. Such a remuneration was net tro great, but the number of Pilots ought to be reduced, which, of course, would les len the per tentage paid by.thc Ship-owners. This Go vernment alleged, that if they lessened the number of Ps:ots in time of peace, there would be, in the event of a war, a scarcity of Pilots to give security to the naviga tion. If that were the case, on his opinion, the expense ought to be done by the nati , h. Alter s )nie funt,er ks, he moved that tie Report be adopted. The motion was afterwards seconded and carried.

He then moved a vine lot thanks to his Mdti,ty's Government fur the as.is ante they bad affords d the Shipowners. Mr. NIARSHALL, in seconding the motion, observed, that there never was an AdruiniAration so muck nu oled to the gratitude of the Shi,-,-owners as tire pre sent, which Lad she:ten an anxious .93lic;tude to Promote their interest in every po,sikle war, Mr. YOUNG, in a short spetch, moved, that Masters of Ships be recommended to purchase Mr. Hume's %Volk, which was carried unanimously. Mr. URQUHART moved, that Mr. Manning, one of the Bank Ditectors, be elected Vice-President, in the room of Rowcroft, Esq. deceased. The motion was then put and carried. The CHM RM A N said that he had just received a lever from Mr. Manning, one of the Bank Directois, which ha begged leave to read, as I e was ceitain it would he gratifying to the Meeting to learn that things were nog really so bad as some had supposed— (ticar,/war! and Read !)—lt was as-follows: " Stlit am sorry to say it is not in my power to attend the Ship-owners' 3lreting, as every moment or toy time for the last few days has been devoted, together with my colleagues of the Bank, in endeavouring to devise means to dispel the terrible and unaccountable pole which has pet vaded the mercantile world.

Misi Anastasia Dolt, Miss Caroline Rasa St. irb.ins, Mistress Wl nifrol- If atling:xi S,”tirr.ni*, and a worshipful Justice of the Puree for the county of Cermarthen, were brought belOre Sir ILK:name LINNIS yesterday, from Coreet.g.srden watclnhouso, charged with riotous and disorderly concloct in saloon of Drury-lane Theatre, and with beating a constable and other persons belonging to that Theatre. The facts, as they were detailed in evidence by a number of witnesses, appeared to be thus : Some time idler the clone of the performances on Wednesday night, the constables and boil-keepers were alarmed by a tremens duos uproar in the'salom, and instantly proceeding neither, they found aheniet ad the fights eating ei-ted, and Miss.Anastasta Bolt and Miss Caroline Rosa St. Alb..ns, c:ateing each orbit- very tu riously in the neid-t of a ring of Gentlemen and Ladies, autone wholit were Mrs. Winifred Watlington Sparrow, and the before mentioned Justice of the 'Peace for • the county of Carnisrthen.— The lights bad been ly • ell put nut, tied the Ladies were squalling, and the Gentlemen were bawling " Go it!" and the swirling about was tremendous; and the mirrors of the saloon weir in jeopardy ; and the saloon itself was much tenadalized by the uproar —so much so, dun it was more WU' a hear-garden than a splendid apartment, bred up, at a great expense, for the express accommodation of Ladies of easy virtue. Tne constables itnine finitely proceeded to disentangle Miss Caroline Rosa Sr. Albans i front Miss Anastasia Pont—in the hope that such disentenglement would induce tln: n hole bevy to bait—hut in this hope they were Altogether mistfiln.n—for when, with much difficti:ty and some danger, they had disentangled the Ladies its questi.ln, the uproar still continued, though why or wherefore nobady seemed to knos.v. At length the constables resolved to employ a hale physical toter in the removal of all the Ladies from the premises—naturally con cluding that the oe:talent - in would follow them as:neturally as the blue-Lot:le flies follow anything they take a fancy to. ACcordingly they proceeded so to do; but whilst they wele descending the stairs, each constable laden with a cue; le of Ladies—or " with two pieces a piece," as they expressed it--une of them (Nettleton) was knocked down, and grievously •beaten by the Gs:sidemen ; and Miss Carbline Itosa St. Albans took skit' opportunity of - knocking down one of the box-keepers,, who lead imprudently --ventured to assist the constables. What followed immediately open this it is impos-ible to say exactly ; but in conclusion, Miss Anastasia Bolt, Mass Caroline Rosa St. Albans, Mrs. Winifred Wallington Spat row, and the Justice of the Peace tot the county of Camaro:en were all sanely depesited in Cove:it-garden watch-house ; and Net detail now deposed, that at ie,st on,: of the beauty: lie'reeeivCll w ay inflicted by the hst of the .le-tics of the l'vare. 31141 Al.astasia Beek pleaded is her detente, that spa h eil only stood up in her own Science against the jealousies and aggressions of Miss Caroline Hose St. Altaao,; and a. 1101 W Of the witnesses on the other side could gainsay that plea, S:r iticttAltil ordered th it she should be ditcharzeit. Mrs. Winifred Wailington sparrow, a matron who attends the saloon to sure-lintel:a the interests of Steven ladies who practise under' bee especial pa:rOnige, pleaded that "on the distressing occasion in questimi, she exerted her utmost influence to make everything comfortahle ;" and, as nobody knew anything to the con trary thereof, Sir If ei HAM) recommended Mrs. Winifred Watling.' ton Sparrow to LIVIALC herself to d.ght with all convenient speed ; and she did so. Miss Caroline Ilava St. Albans, alias Mrs. Masculine, a MO of colour, and said to he the " uursci moiety" of a West of Raigland Magi:trate, offered nothing in her defence but a rita . r.'Mati she o as ordered to hod hail tor knocklogdown the boa-keeper. It now came to the turn of tart . Justice or l'eace to defend self against the charge of having *tau& the cuustable; and 'be said hr thought the const.ble must b.: mistaken. "'Pray, Sir, are you a resident ut Loudon r Baia Sicliteitiato. " No, Sir—l am from Wale's," a. plied the Justice sat Peace-- " I ant a Nlagistrate of the county of tnarmartheul and of course the . last mail in the ivt.sid to snake a - col/stable—lndeed i do nut think it piKaihie I should strike hint.' Ihe constable repeated that he did strike him; and that he not only ;truck himself*, but encouraged otha.rs to strike hint whilst he was down, by crying " Go it :" " Really, Siz," said Sir It. Mame, " this was a strange scene for a conservator or the public peace to take such a part in !" The conservator an the public peace repeated that he really thought the constable must be nustaktn; but Sir Mena VD told hint the as sault was positively sworn to; and however sort y he night be to see a Justice of the•Pcace in such a situatiuu, it was his duty to hold him to bail to answer it at the Sessions. A Dorms slisraire—A tall Irish Gentleman, of rather bibaci. out physiognomy, was brought up from the same watch-house, charged with having assaulted dlr. Kelly, the brother of Mr. Krely, of Covent Garden Theatre. sir. Keely was passing through Broad-court. Bow-street, late on Wednesday night, when the tall Irish Gentleman caw running after him, and, sazing him by the collar, said—" you little rascal— you've prigg'd my umbritta 1" and, so sayitig; he shook Mr. Keely so furiously, that the sleeve of his coat was completely separated from the body thereof. The tall Irish Gentleman was a total stranger to Mr. Keely—he had never seen him before, and therefore he was utterly astonished at this str?uge attack. Just at that moment, two ocher Gentkmen came up, and seeing Mr. Keely under the abovententioned • disagreralbe operation, with an umbrella in his hand, they offered to hold the umbrella for him, in order that he might the better defend himself. Mr. Keely took the offer kindly, and having entrusted then with his umbrella, released himself from the uncomfortable grasp of the tall Irish Gentle Man, and rave hint in charge to the watchman ; but when lie looked round torthe . two other Gentlemen, he found they had bolted with his umbrella. So that it clearly appeared that the tall Irish Gentleman had mistaken Mr. Keely for a thief, and Mr. Keely had mistaken two thieves for a couple of Gentkmen. However, the tall Irish Gentleman afterwards manifested great Contrition for his mistake I and, as his friends had come fot ward to remunerate him for the tearing of his coat and the loss of his um• biella, he did nut wish to prosecute. And therefore the tall Irish Gantkmatt was discharged. lIATTON-GARDEN. DARING DuRGLARY —Yesterday Thos.
