THEATRES. KING'S THEATIM—MOZART'S delightful Opera, Il Flauto Magico, was performed, for the first time this season, on Tuesday, and repeated on Saturday evening, neady in the same manner as k was origi nally represented last year. Madame BELLOCHI was in excellent voice, and Signora Coßal sang with more than usual energy. The Duke and Duchess of GLoucerrzu were present, for the first time since the demise of the Ring. COVINT-GA ROM—A new Musical Romance, called Henri Quatre; or, Paris in the Olden Time, was produced at this Theatre on Saturday night, for the first time. It is founded, as may be inferred from its tide, on French history ; and we have scarcely ever witnessed any dramatic entertainment which, on the first representation, gave such unqualified satisfaction, in almost - every paqicular, to an un usually large audience.—The following is a List of the principal of the Dramatis Persona: Henri Mr. MACETADT. Sully Mr. EGERTON. Crillon Mr. HUNT. General D'Aumont. Mr. FRWCZTE. Eugene de 8ir0n..... • Mr. C. Kans.:. Frederic St. Leon...—. Assort. ....... ...... .... . . Mr. J. Jonsurrows. Moustache..., Mr. Awl'. Jocriase Mr. lAsecne. Gervais. Mr. Dvatisre. Finceau Mr. Bastgcussa. Germain Mr. Cowls. Florence St. Leon Miss STEPRENS. Clotilde de 8ir0n..... ............. Miss BRUNTON. Louisou Miss M. Tam The curtain rises upon a view of the St. Denis road to Paris, with Paris in the distance. The villagers, headed by Jocrisse, conic-in singing, in celebration of an Anniversary Fete, in which Cervais is to represent the King. Jocrisse is newly married, and his clownish gaiety is full of the dance which he has com posed in honour of the day. The next scene is in General d'Aumont's house, and Florence, in love with Eugene, gives way to her feelings in graceful poetry: AlR—Florence. Tell me, my heart, why morning's prime Looks like the fading eve— Why the gay lark's celestiA chime But tells the soul to grieve? The heaving bosom seems to say, Oh, hopless maid, your love's away! Tell me, my heart, why summer's glow A wintry day beguiles— Why Flora's beauties seem to blow, And fading Nature smiles? Some :zephyr whisper, in my ear, Ah, happy maid, your love is near! The scene returns to Joerisse and his peasants. Henri, at tended by Selly, and both disguised as troopers, come in to as certein the popular feeling. Gervais, who WAS to have per formed King at the Fete, has been captured by the Leaguers, and the vacant throne is offered to the trooper, who is acknow ledged to have some likeness to the sign of Henri's head, over Jocrisse's door. Henri delights in the frolic, assumes the chair, elects Jocri;se's pretty wife as his Gabrielle, and between ex citing her h ush and's jealousy, Sully's hood-natured remonstrances, Luison's smiles, and the universal admiration of the peasantry, paws an extremely busy time. The period is the siege of Paris, aml Henri is disturbed on his throre by its orii inal master, Gcrvais, who has escaped from the Leaguers, and returns with the news that they have retreated in confusion. Henri sends Bully for intellivrice, excites the suspicions of the peasants by his agitation at the news, and is collared by Jocrisse, as an enemy is the good cause. These occurrences afford a fine opportunity, of which she writer has well availed himself, for developing the ge nerous and amiable attributes of Henri's character--his magna te's:lhp, courage, gallantry, good humour, and clemency. The man interest, however, does not lie in the character and ad ventures of the King, but in those of two French Officers, Eu ree and Frederic, and containing the illustration of a perfect and most heroic friendship. This friendship is cemented the more strongly by a duel, in which Eugene is the aggressor, and in wounded. Just previous to the rencontte, an order had at- vied from the King, appointing Eugene to a most important service, which Frederic, knowing his wound had disabled him fro n acting, undertakes, in his name, and achieves with honour. Th affair is kept a secret from the King, who is about to con fer marks of distinction upon Eugene; but his natare is too noble to receive them, and he confesses not only the act of Frederic, but the duel preceding it, which the French law then punished with death. He is thrown into prison, and condemned to die the following morning. Eugene there recollects that the mar riage of his friend was intended to take place that evening with Lis sister, Clotilde, and that, without his signature to the con tract, his happiness would be delayed. The jailor, an old sot= dier, a friend, and the instructor of his prisoner in the military art, confides in his honour, and suffers him to leave the prison on his parole. He repairs to the cliateeu of his uncle, unites his friend to his sister in marriage, without revealing his situation, returns to the prison to meet his sentence, and arrives jut in time to save his aged keeper from ruin. n his road, in pass ing through a wood, he is enabled to save the life of the King, who had been attacked by a banditti, and that act, when deve l-eed, leads to his pardon and union with Florence, Frederic's Sis:er, to whom he had been tenderly attached. The progress of these events, which are very clearly unfolded, keeps up a lively interest for the fate of the principal personages, *and a strong curio sity for the result of the situations in which not only they, but the minor characters are placed. The dia logue is Net. natural, and comic, seasoned by a large infusion of smai t jests, and pungent repartees.—Macy READY played Henri admirably. C. KEMBLE*S En. gene de Biron was equally excellent. The honest hardy veteran Moustache was. personated by FAY'. CETT to the life. J. JGSINSTONE, who is engaged'at this Theatre, played O'Donnel, an Irish Officer in the French service, perfectly true to nature. Ltsrou represents an important fool and a jealous husband (Jocrisse), in his own rare and happy manner.— Ilis pretty and coquettish wife was very prettily sus tained by Miss M. TREE. That Lady was encored in a little song to the air of froules vous danser Ma demoiselle. Master LONGHURST, a child between eleven and twelve years of age, sung a duet with • Miss STEPHENS, in a very pleasing style, and was en cored. The scenery was singularly beautiful. The curtain was dropped and the Piece given out for re petition amid universal and rapturous approbation. The Piece is said to be written by Mr. MORTON. THE PARK.—The fineness of the weather yesterday drew together an immense concourse of persons, com posed of the grave as well as the gay. Fashion now begins to display itself in colonts ; but the sombre hue, in the carriage costume, continues to prevail. The broad-striped black silk boots, fringed and laced at the sides, were universal among the belles of fashion. What few shoes were w.rn, are not so high in the instep—it is an improvement, adding grace to fashion. The line of carriages extended to Oxford street, from half-past three to nearly six o'clock.—A vast number of foreign coronets were displayed ; and not a few cabriolets. The Duke of WELLINGTON ap peared in the throng; but his Grace was not re cognized. Yesterday, the Duke of WELLINGTON gave a grand dinner to the Foreign Officers of distinction, now re sident in London. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF XING'S BENCH, APRIL 51. THE KING V. HUNT. The LORD CHIRP JUSTICE—I suppose, Mr. Hunt, you have come to move for a new trial ? Mr. Humr—l have, my Lords • I have come to move fotia new trial in the case of King v. Hunt. The LORD Cam JUSTIC* said, it was now too late to take the matter into consideration to-day. - Mr. Hunt might move on a future day ; it would be without any prejudice to him. Mr. Hour requested that •their Lordships would have the goodness to name a day. The LORD CHIRP JUSTICE said, it was probable that the Gentlemen at the Bar had many motions to wake ; and on one of them mentioning that there were above twenty on the list, his Lordship named Wednesday as the day ou which the motion would be heard. THE KING V. HARRISON AND WOLSELEY, BART.. Mr. PEA itsoN moved for a Rule to shew cause why the verdict obtained in this case should not be set aside, and a new trial granted. LORD CHIEF Justice—Are both the defendants in Court. Mr. PaansoW—Sir Charles Wolseley is in Court, my Lord ; but Mr. Harrison is not ; he is in custody. Mr. PEARSON proceeded—The ground of the pre sent motion originated in the summing up of the Learned Judge who had tried the cause; and he was fully aware, the Learned Counsel said, of the deli cate situation in which he stood when treating upon such a subject. Under these circumstances he should avoid all general remarks, and should confine him self entirely to two particular points in the Learned Judge's charge, which had appeared to him, and to his Learned Friend (Mr. Park), especially to call for the attention of the Court. No doubt there had been, upon the trial, a misconception in.the mind of the Learned Judge, but that misconception had pro duced a most ruinous statement of facts, and com ments no less ruinous to the cause of the defendants. It had beef, swore upon the trial, the Learned Coun sel continued, by a person of the name of Johnson, that Sir Charles Wolseley had uttered these words— he (Johnson) standing at the time among many other persons, at a short distance from the hustings— " Be firm and unite your strength, for in three weeks the great struggle will be made and ended,"—words of alarming import, and calculated to make a deep impression upon the minds of the Jury. It had ap peared, however, during the examination of the wit ness Johnson, who was a very young man, that he had concealed these expressions from all the world until a fortnight before the time of the trial, at which period he had related them to a person named Bullock, who, at the time of the trial, was in cus tody upon a charge of felony. Upon Johnson's cross-examination, the Learned Counsel continued, he had been unable to remember the order , in which the different speakers had addressed the Meeting ; he conk' remember no other expression used either by Sir Charles Wolseley or by any other, person ; but still he remembered, very accurately, the words in question. The same witness had also stared, that he had been present from the beginning of the assem bly-..that he had witnessed all the proceedings— and that he was confident that Sir Charles Wolseley was the first person, upon that occasion, who had addressed the multitude. Now, in this latter asser tion, Mr. Johnson had been contradicted by every one of the witnesses called for the prosecution. All the witnesses who bad been present at the Meeting, had concurred in stating, that before Sir Charles Wolseley even appeared, Mr. Harrison had spoken for a considerable time. In contradiction to Mr. Johnson's other assertion, with respect to the . words, two witnesses had been called for the defence, who, from their situation as Newspaper Reporters (and one of them had attended for a Ministerial paper), anxious to catch at everything important, would be likely to know what attually did take place. One of these Gent:emen had stood, upon the day of the Meeting, within three yards of Sir Charles Wolseley, and the other close to him ; and both of them nega tived- the use of the words imputed ; both of them asserted that no such words had been employed ; and that, if such words had been employed, they (the witnesses) could not but have heard them.— ( In addition to these facts, the Court should be told, that no other witness called for the prosecution had corroborated the statement of Johnson. When he used the word " corroborated," he (Mr. Pearson) did not mean to confine himself to the literal expression; what he meant was, that no witness had asserted, or even insinuated, that thbse expressions, or that ex pressions of similar import, had been employed- by Sir Charles Wolseley. It was fit, Mr. Pearson con tinued, that he should state to their Lordships, that during the summing alp of the Learned Judge (War;. ren), he (Mr. Pearson) had not hien present. He had, however, no less than tea affidavits, as to'tbat sum ming up ; or perhaps it would be mere regular if he read the Learned Judge's observations from the notes of his friend (Mr. Park), who had been with him in the cause. The Learned Judge, in commenting upon the evidence, had said, " The evidence in contradict tion is nothing, because the witnesses only say that they did not hear." There was a wide distinctidin Mr. Pearson thought, between the saying, " These witnesses did not hear the words," and saying, as the witnesses had said, that no such words were used, and that if they had been used, they must have heard them. Such was the only evidence, as it appeared to the Learned Counsel, by which any man, however innocent, could disprove or negative words imputed to him. The Learned Judge, indeed, towards the close of the evidence, had stated that it was not ma terial whether the words in question had or had not been used, because they formed but a small part of the case; that, however, he (Mr. Pearson) thought' would have been a question for the Jury ; and surely such words must form at least a material part of every case in which anything was to depend upon the intention of the speaker. There was another cir cumstance of no less importance, to which he would request the attention of the Court. All the witnesses who had been called for the prosecution, all at least who spoke upon the subject, had stated, that about three quarters of an hour before Sir Charles Wolseley had joined the Meeting, a most improper assault had been made upon a Constable, or Peace-officer. In his address to the people, Sir Charles Wolseley had said something about Spies and Informers. That expression had not been used tilirstarll4 bout after • the assault in qttestion had been committed: and yet the Learned Judge, in his summing up, had said, Sir Charles Wolseley bid them beware of Spies and In formers;, and you will see how well his words were attended to, " for a constable ie almost killed ;" thus impressing upon the mind's of the Jury that thoas sault upon the constable had been the effect of words which had not been uttered until an hour after that assault had taken place. It was his duty, Mr. Pear son continued, to state, that the circumstance last mentioned did not appear upon the notes of his Learned Friend, Mr. Park ; but it was-stated in all the affidavits. Without entering into rzrgument, which would then be out of its place, it was clear, Mr. Pear son added, that a Jury, after a long trial, occupying the greater part of two days, must be unable to re member all the circumstances of the case, and that they must rely upon the summing up of the Judge to refresh their memories;' and it was impossible, in the present case,. but that the statements and obser vations to which he (Mr. Pearson) had alluded, and which had no doubt arisen from misconception on the part of the Learned Judge who had tried the cause, must have produced upon the minds of the Jury an impression unfavourable to the defendants. With that statement he would leave the case to the consideration of their Lordships. The LORD CHIEF Jus•rlCE.—Perhaps, although it does not appear upon his notes, Mr. Park may re member the observation as to the Spies and Informers? Mr. PARK said, that the impression upon his mind while the Learned Judge was summing up had been, that he had mistaken the order in which the circum stances had taken place. What his Lordship had said, however, had not been sufficiently clear and dis tinct to establish beyond doubt that a mistake had been committed, or to justify him (Mr. Park) in in terfering. The opinion, he thought, of any person present, must have been that there was a mistake of that description. The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE (after a conference with the Judges) said, that this was a case in which, whe ther the present application were granted or refused, the report of the Learned Judge who had tried the cause would come before that Court. There was great novelty in the application. It was the first in stance, within his Lordship's memory, in which an application for a new trial had been founded upon a particular passage in the summing up of the Judge. The Court had no objection to grant a Rule to drew cause; but that Rule must not be the means of delay. He (the Lord Chief Justice) did not mean to insinuate that any delay was meditated ; but it was the duty of the Court Co see that none occurred. Would the Learned Counsel who had made the motion be ready as soon as the report came in ? Mr. PEARSON said that he had no doubt he could, if one day's notice were given to him. The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE.—NO doubt that may be done. Mr. PEARSON wished to know whether the affida• vits ought to be filed ? The LORD CHIEF Jos-rim—The affidavits should be laid before us for our own information; but you cannot expect them to be answered, because we can not try what the Learned Judge has said. - The se cond point does not appear upon the notes of Mr. Park, or there would have been no reason for filing the affidavits. Mr. CHITTY appeared for Mr. Harrison, and con curred in Mr. Pearson's motion. It was arranged that no affidavits were to be filed except those in support of that point which did not appear upon the notes of Mr. PARK. CHESTER, APRIL 21.—Mary Jones, the woman mentioned in M4lnnis letter, which we gave last week, is not his sweetheart but his aunt. M.lnnis se veral times confessed that he was a great enemy to the Constitution of the Country, andhad a perfect hatred to all its Great Officers of State. The reason he as signed for not communicating to the Reformers his design of shooting Birch was, that he despised them, and thought them too contemptible to entrust with the secret. There is little doubt but that the sentence on Bruce will have a favourable commutation. It is but fair to state, that his conduct in jail has been ex emplary ; and there is no doubt of his innocence' as concetd with the crime of M'lnnis. Ntwoact.—Considerable alarm was excited in the neighbour hood of Newgate on Friday night, in consequence of shouts and screams which proceeded from within the prison, and which, at first, led to a belief that an attempt was making by some means to rescue the State Prisoners from confinement. Crowds collected in front of the Jail, and for some time the utmost anxiety prevailed. At length, however, the tumult subsided, and it turned out that it proceeded, not from the State Priso ners, but front the female convicts, who, from no assignable reason, commenced breaking the windows and uttering the most dreadful exclamations. Mr. Brown, with the utmost prompti tude, took measures to allay the riot, which he was only able to effect by handcuffing some of the meat refractory, and removing others to a different part of the Jail. Saturday morning, forty of these women, who were under sentence of transportation, wete sent off to the hulks. Fessous Daivaise.—About halt-past seven o'clock on Satur. day se'nnight, an interesting young woman far affranced in pregnancy, was crossing High-street, in the Borough, opposite the front gates of St. Thomas's Hospital, with a bundle in her hand, when an extra-coach, from Chatham, drove furiously for the . City, with twelve sailors on the top, and the off-leader knocked down the ill-fated female, after which the fore-wheel at once passed over her, the hinder wheel resting on her body. The coachman now lashed the horses, - aud, dreadful to relate, the woman was killed en the spot ! Hereupon the body was conveyed to the Hospital, when the Surgeons opened it, to pre serve the unborn offspring, and actually found the infant to be alive! The babe was given in charge of a nurse, but it lived no longer than till Tuesday morning last.—On the same day, an Inquest was held; but, owing to the want of sufficient evidence, the Coroner adjourned the Court till the Thursday following, when it was accordingly held in the said Hospital. One of the witnesses now stated, that she was crossing the street at the same time with the deceased, and saw her knocked down; the coach was driving at a furious rate, whereby the life of the wit ness was exposed to imminent peril. Another witness gave in evidence, that, on the evening of the accident, he was waiting at the corner of York-street, in the Borough, when the coach man was driving at a forious rate, which induced him to expr ess _ _ his fears to a person with him, that some mischief would be done; witness had hardly uttered the words, when he saw the coach suddenly stop; he instantly ran to the spot, and saw the poor woman extricated from under the wheel; after the de ceased was carried away, witness ran up to the coachman, and remonstrated with him, when he used abusive language, and endeavoured to flog en his horses; the coachman had never left his seat, but evinced the greatest indifference. On this witness being questioned how be ascertained that the coach was driving at a furious rate? be answered, he had been a coachman seven years, and was convinced that the coach was running at the rate of twelve miles an hour at the time of the accident. Other witnesseridentified the coach and coachman which caused the fatal accident, and confirmed the evidence as to the wanton conduct of the offending parties. The Coroner summed up the whole to the Jury, who returned a verdict of Wi/ful Murder spina the coachman, and fixed a deodand of M. on the coach: : CLEMCA4, iNitLEIGENM CAMBRIDGE, APRIL n.
