IRELAND.

DRURY-LANE THEATRZ.—An apology was made last night for the absence of the Gentleman who was to have made his second appearance in Hamlet, and' it was stated to be owing to indispwitiosi. This we hope and believe to be the only cause of the disap- ' p4intrnent which was suffered, as his exertions on Thursday evening seemed indeed to have exhausted him extremeiy. In this emergency, Mr. HAMBLIN ascended from the rank of Horatio to that of the , Prince, the usual indulgence of the audience having been duly solicited. He went through the character in a manner which reflected considerable ccredit upon 4,4 him. The House was thinly attended.

Cart (related to the man of that name who fought the Game Chicken) and D. Crap- Sher, took plase, at Hartley Row, Hants. Rousso I. Crowther placed a direct flush bit upon his adver sary's ear, and it was returned by a tic-up body hit. Crowther retreated, and after placing another kit, be was thrown. S. Cart received three heavy hits, and the returns were dex terously avoided ; but in making a third blow, Crowther received a heavy hit on the body, svhictrfioored him. 3. Cart made play, and his adversary seemed to feel the ef fects of the last round, by keeping his distance, until pressed against the ropes, when he fought himself out `-la-Randall, and much goodness was shewn en, both sides, but strength gone. Cart had the best of it, and he 'threw his adversary a heavy fall. Two to one on Cart, whose head was much mangled. 4. Crowther had got second wind, as it is technically termed, and be hit his adversary's features out of place, and floored him by a body hit. 5. Both were much exhausted, and it was a tedious round, but Crowther darkened his adversary's right eye, and left only a glinimer of sight in the other. Both went down in a close, and Crowther was backed at three to one. a. Cart made a gallant rally, bit the want of sight prevented fromAoing much execution- He lammed his adversary's left jaw by a right-banded blow, and hit out two of his teeth ; but Crowther fought at points, and he beat his adversary by blinding him. Cart was hit six times on the head in this round, and he was floored by a closing hit in the wind, which gave vic tory to Crowther. There was a second battle, for a purse of five guineas.

W01,11/tEN and Mr. Justice M A R SHALL , whe at , after live usual farms had been disposed ef, the following Gentle men were sworn of the Grand Jury Lord Vise. Beigrave, lisruman John Basket-vine Clegg, Esq. Sir' Rd. Brook, Bart. Jos. Green, Esq. % Richard Congreve, Esq, John Hoskin Harper, Esq. Ed. Corbett, Esq. • Bell Into, Esq. W. Wilson Currey, Esq.

Randal Wilbraham ' Ea+ Jos. Wylde, Esq. Birkenhead Clegg. Esq. At a quarter plst one o'clock, Mr. Justice MAR.. SHALL addressed the Jury in a speech, of which the following is the substance :—He began by lamenting the extremely crowded state of the Calendar, which contained the names of no less than ninety-seven pri sone: s ; and this influx of crime he attributed to the consequences arising from the system of delusion which had been so long practised over the country by mob orators and itinerant vagabonds. A number of desperate adventurers, sacrificing the pursuits of honest industry, had suddenly started from obscurity to subveit the Institutions of this mighty empire ; 'and at a period; too, whea its career of glory had at tained its highest splendour. They supposed, in the depraved vanity of their hearts, that they could sub stitute a better form •of Goi , ernment than at present existed ; and this delusion they practised on the un thinking and unwary. Their design, it was clear, was to effect a sanguinary revolution, and write the new Constitution in characters of blood. Reform in Parliament was their watch-word—it was their ma gical nostruin for curing all the diseases of the State —to convert thieves into honourable men—to make the rich poor, and, of course, the poor rich. It could not be denied but what some degree of irregularity had crept into the system of our representation; but then the very principles of the Constitution were such, that they purged away their own impurit:es ; and at no period whatever in our national annals' did there exist more rational freedom in this country than it could boast at present. Our Constitution was the envy of Europe, as it was the pride and glory of Great Britain ; and let it be understood, that if once impaired—if once gone—it is gone for ever I and, af ter our best blood had been shed in its defence, it would be succeeded by a reign of democratical ty rants and military despotism. A Court of Justice, perhaps, was not the best i place for political subjects ; but he might be permitted to say, that from the first dawn of our Parliamentary privileges, in the reign of Henry the Third, or rather in that of his son, Edward the First, the constitutional rights of the people had been gradually improving, in proportion to the extension of intellectual knowledge ; and some of the wisest and best men that ever adorned the country were of opinion that the Constitution at pre sent in existence was sufficiently democratical. The.. Learned Judge then took an eloquent survey of the triumphs achieved by our invincible fleet and armies, and adverted to the right which the People possessed to meet and petition their Representatives ; they were expressly supported in it by the law of the land ; but how was this right used, or rather abused ? Why, the dissatisfied and discontented began to organize the crowds which they had collected to their own vile purposes, and speedily their real objects were ' developed, which were to overthrow the Government, and root up all that was good and venerable in the country. Such Meetings, therefore, were incom. patible with the safety of the country and the well being of the community. Such Meetings were not like those which the law protected ; they were in terrorem poruli, and therefore illegal. On an occa. sion which occurred some time age, the Magistrates of a neighbouring County (Lancaster), executed a painful duty with a promptitude which does them in finite credit, characterfited by temper and modera tion! His L3rdship paid a high compliment to the Magistrates and Gentlemen of Cheshire, for the pa triotism and public spirit they had evinced in forming corps of Yeomanry to meet the exigencies of the times ; and slightly adverted to the charges against M'lnnis and ethers for shooting at Birch, and the in dictment against Harrison and Sir Charles Wolseley for sedition, stating the law as it -affected their re spective cases. Several sums were recovered against the HUndred, by persons residing in Macclesield, for the injury they sustained in their property during the late sedi tious excesses in that town. Jane Hesketh was convicted for having in her pos. session forged Bank of England notes, and sentenced to fourteen years transportation. Josiah Nowa was convicted of robbing the Liver. pool mail coach of a box containing gold and silver of the value of £1,400. His trial, which rested en. tirely on circumstances, bit those of a very strong description, commented about half-past ten o'clock, and did not terminate till four, when the prisoner was found Guilty.—Seven years transportation. Though the city is full of strangers, few persons were in the Court, and during the deliveiy sof - the charge several left it. - The trial of Sir Charles Wolseley win not come - on before Monday, and that of Mr. Harrison on Weil. nesday next. • The Egerton party preferred a Bill yesterday against General Grosvenor,- for a riot and assault, during the Election, which was thrown out by. the Grand Jury of the City Sessions' Court. • Sir CHARLES Woi.szury has taken private apart. inents during his stay in Cbesteh Bullock and Johnnn, two of the principal witnesses against Sic CHARLES WOLSELEY, at Chester, were, on Wednesday last, taken up, and are-actually in the New Bailey, for robbing a poor man of lOs. in cop. per ! This circumstance has given great joy to the people of Stockport. . esterday - Mr. MAI:QV/AIRING, late Magistrate of Worship -street, took his seat as Magistrate at Marl borough-street Office, in the room of Mr. BAKER, now Chief Magistrate at Bow•street. As a cart ♦was going through the Borough this morning, about seven u clock, near King -street, with some long bars of iron in it, the - rattling noise of the iron frightened the horse of Mr. Bonn, of the Maze, who was dismounted, and falling on his head, re. ceived so much injury, as to be carried home in 4 senseless state. 1 4N : 40 , . -
