POOR EMERY. Yesterday the Committee received a most gratify ing and kind letter from his Royal Highness the Duke of 'form. inclosing a draft for £5O. His letter ex pressed in very feeling terms a sanguine hope that the Committee who are conducting the Subscription will not close their labours until a sufficient sum is received to make a permanent provision for the whole of this distressed and surviving family. Huonas BALL, Esq. sent £25 for a box; HENRY Batarrro, Esq. 10 guineas, and JOHN SOANE , Esq. 10 guineas. COVENT-GARDEN THEATRE. There never was a more splendid demonstration of genuine sympathy—of heartfelt sincerity, the ap pearance of which is sometimes but vainly assumed by that mawkish kind of sentiment which exhausts itself in words, than that which this Theatre exhi bited last night. The House was literally filled to the ceiling—pit, boxes, and galleries overflowed, and when the mind reflected on the object in view, it was surely no mean gratification to behold them so thickly tenanted. They seemed like a fairly-proportioned building, in which, though the lower parts were more highly ornamented, yet all contributed to its strength and effect. The whole scene was calculated to excite the hest feelings of the human heart ; there were on the Stage, Actors from almost every Theatrical Esta blishment in the Metropolis, all united for one sacred purpose, all testifying their respect for him who had once been their " own familiar friend." The Play selected for the occasion was the admirable Comedy of the Rivals, the characters in which were supported by some of the most talented and esteemed favourites of the Public ; ii is therefore needless to descant on the merits of the representation. The veteran Mum- DEN played Sir Anthony Absolute with wonderful effect. After the Comedy several songs were given by Madame VESTRIS, Miss POVEY, and other cele brated vocalists, in their usual style of excellence; and a duet was performed by Mr. BocusA and M. Puzzt on the harp and horn with a brilliancy of exe cution which delighted the audience. The Entertain milts concluded with the Operetta of Belles without Beaux, which was exclusively represented by Per formers from the English Opera House, headed by Miss KELLY, Who had here an opportunity of dis playing those tender feelings which she can express so well. It is needless to add, the audience was highly gratified; indeed, their bosoms could not have been filled with other than pleasurable emotions. They recognized the Performers with cordial warmth, and greeted them with loud clapping of hands, " which had hearts in them !'"Ehe following Address, written by Mr. Geonce COLNIAN, the Younger, was spoken by Mr. BARTLEY : Friends of the Muse ! who in a polish'd age, Support the Morals of our British Stage; Who, when a Public Favourite gives birth To feeihrls of respect for private worth; • 'With generous and equal ardour scan The merits of the Actor and the flan; • Need we, to-night, express our grief?—or tell Sorrows, in which you sympathize so well: Poor EMERY is gone! who lay'd his part, Each day he breathed home to the very heart, True to the Drama's, 'as to Friendship's call, 1k charni'd us—fur 'twas honest Nature all. • How oft, when scarce an effort would appear, He drew the giant's bow of Genius here ! Seem'd like a random shooter in the dark, But never, never fail'd to bit the mark : Various his range—hut, in the peasant vein, 0 We ne'er may look upon his like again." 'Twas his, well studied in the rustic school, To shew the arch, the vicious, and the fool ; 'Twas his, with matchless kimour to pourtray The Lumps, and Dartflie Dilemmas of his day ; 'Twas his, in Tyke, with Truth's resistless force, To fill the lowly villain with remorse ; "Fuss his to feel, too, with becoming pride, How Talent can support its own fire-side ; Till, in his prime, alas! of life bereft, Life's dearest objects shelterless were left. Patrons of Genius! Guardians of Distress! Friends of the Destitute, and Fatherless! For you, his Widow will her prayer repeat ; Fur yOu, his grateful Children's bosoms beat; And may his spirit now look down and view The succour they obtain this night from you! IlAYmAnitzz.—Last night Miss PATON re-ap peared in the character of Susanna, in the Marriage of Figaro, and more than realized the high hopes ilich her debut had excited. Some dissatisfaction was excited, inconsequence of the delay before the commencement of the Opera ; and at the rising of the curtain Mr. lASTON came forward and said— " Lames /au GcxnrmEN—Can it he necessary to make further apology for the delay, than to state that I was the cause of it, Laving only just come from Covent-Garden, where I contributed n:y humble assistance at the benefit for the relief of the family of poor FZIEIIY This simple appeal instantly restored perfect good humour, and the piece went off triumphantly. Yesterday, a plasterer, of the name of Hill, fell from the top of a four story scaffolding, it Kentish Town, and was killed. He has left a wife and three children. Friday, at the Guildhall, Exeter, a charge was made before the MAYOR against Mrs. Street, mother of Misi Drusilla Street, of an attempt to poison her husband, subsequent to the elopement of which the Public have already heard so much.—John Bennett,. shoemaker in St. Sidwell's, deposed, that he called on the defendant to borrow seven shillings; she said she could put him in a way to get twenty pounds; he asked how ? and she replied, 46 By poisoning my rogue of a husband ;" she shewed him some white stuff mixed up in a tea-cup, which she said was arsenic she got to poison rats with, but she did not think it was strong enough, and gave him money to go to Mr. Reeve's to buy some more. He went and asked for some arsenic to poison rats; Mr. R. told him aux ibomica was better, and gave him some. While this deposition was making, the defendant cried bitterly, and exclaimed—" LanD have mercy upon me r A conversation then took place between the Counsel and Attornies, on the amount of bail necessary., Mr. Street said he feared he should be obliged to leiveEieter, to . besafe from his wife: Mrs. Street (in great agony), " I won't . injure him—l won't injure Elm a his point." It was ultimately agreed to take the bail of two persons -in £2OO each, for her ap pearance at the Sessions to answer the charge.—(Shag: borne Mercury). • •4 •/1.• POLICE. - Manstrotabitsn.—Yesietday, hlr..Edteartt Gerrit, M-broker, appeared at the Justice-room, his assignee and solicitor having given their undertaking, on Saturday last, that he would be to answer a charge preferred against him by Mr. f p o i rt u li nk co e t t l:ing , of Cannon-street-road. timber-merchant, fot a having pledged with a banking-house a bill of eachange, drawn 'by W. Plunkett upon, and accepted by, Thomas Marsh, for the pay ment of £3O, and another bill of exchange, drawn by W. Plun kett upon, and accepted by, John Reynolds, for the payment of 971.145. which were deposited with Edward Harris for a special purpose, as the brolter and agent of W. Plunkett. The f acts stated for the prosecution were briefly these :—Mr. Plunkett having, on the 15th of April, occasion for cub, applied to his friend Mr. Marsh, and chewed him the bills alluded to, which Mr. Marsh advised him to tender to Mr. Harris, who was in the habit of discounting bills. Mr. Plunkett put the bills into the bands of Mr. Marsh, for the purpose of getting cash for them from Mr. Harris, who said he could not discount them, but offered to cash Mr. Plunkett's acceptance, drawn by Mr. Marsh, for the whole amount, if the two bills of exchange were left as collateral security for the payment. This arrangement was agreed to, and Mr. Harris cashed the proposed bill for 971. 14s. This bill became due on the 30th May, but there re. mained a balance upon it unpaid for two or three weeks. The whole sum Was, however, now paid, but the two bills left as collateral security had never been returned. In fact, Mr. Plun kett had, to his astonishment, been arrested upon one of the bills which lay at one of Mr. Harris's banking-houses as a pledge for money advanced to that gentleman—a practice which existed extensively in the City between banking-houses and brokers.— This cenduct of Mr. Harris was represented as in violation of the 52d of Geo. 111. cap. 63. which punishes persons convicted of embezzling , secreting , or pledging for their own use, bills in trusted to their care, with transportation for fourteen years. The Solicitor for the prosecution said he should prove, by the clerk at the banking-house, that the bills were, to all intents and purposes, pledged for the service of the defendant, and that he had got money upon them before the bill for 971. 14$. bad been dishonoured. The case having been postponed in order to arrive at this cer tainty, yesterday a number of Gentlemen attended at the Justice Room, while Mr. ALLEY appeared as Counsel for the defendant, and a full investigation took place. It appeared that Mr. Harris has been very extensively engaged as a bill broker, and that he had been in the habit of borrowing large sums of money at dif ferent banking-houses upon securities such as are mentioned above. Unfortunately he became a bankrupt, pending the deal ing with Mr. Plunkett. The Solicitor for the prosecution called John Sulgrave, cashier at Barnard and Co.'s, No. 50, Cornhill. Witness stated, that Mr. Harris had an account with his house as well as at other banking-houses. They were in the habit of advancing money upon loans to him, and had extensive dealings with him. The bills attached as securities were left as pledges on such occasions. The LORD MAYOR supposed that if a bill-broker were to offer bills to the amount of £lO,OOO, the banking-house would lend half the money upon them. Mr. Sadgrove said, that entirely depended 'Ton circumstances. On looking over the securities for money advancKl, be found an item of two bills of the description spoken of. Upon one orthose bills he believed Mr. Plunkett had been arrested. Mr. Attn . said, the matter was very easily settled, and de sired the bankers' hooks might be produced, hy which it would soon be seen that ncthing had been done with the securities until the bill for £97. 145. was dishonoured, and Mr. Harris became a bankrupt—an event which completely tied his hand. In fact, the securities had not been left at the hankers until the evening of the 30th of May, on which da , . the bill alluded to was disho noured. • ;Mr.- Alley added, that he expected in such a case the banker would have attended himself. The Cashier stated, that the books did not contain any parti culars of the bills, and he could not say whether the securities had been pledged on or before the 30th of May. Mr. ALLEY said there was an end to the case, as far as re garded his client. The Loan Maros said, that the defendant stood completely exonerated from the charge of having violated the Statete. A ruffianly boy was brought before the Loan MAYOR, charged by a serjeant of the Guards, serving at the Tower, with having used language towards him in allusion to the late horrible trans action which was detailed at Marlborough-street Office. A mob had collected In consequence of the conduct of the young rascal, and some hooting commenced; but the serjeant seize/ him, and determined, whatever attempts might be made to rescue, to drag him off to the Police. The LORD MAYOI wished that the serjeant had laid his cane as smartly on the prisoner's back as he could, and was about to commit the boy to prison, when the parents interfered and pro mised amendment. The boy cried bitterly, and the serjeant spoke in his behalf, and had him discharged. UNION-41ALL.RIOT AT A FUNERAL.DiZtAPeat on was brought before R. J. Cif AMBUIS and L. B. ALLEN, Esqrs. charged with having been concerned In a riot at the funeral of William Inwood, a fisherman, of Lambeth. _ Seagrove, the sexton. of Lambeth church, stated, that on Tuesday afternoon last, as the body of the deceased, William Inwood, was proceeding for interment in Lambeth Church-yard, a mob of persons collected and followed the procession ; and on its arrival at the Church-yard began shouting and hallooing. The witness was assaulted with the most horrid language, and the mourners were pelted with mud, and with great difficulty en tered the burial ground, the gate of which was instantly closed to exclude the mob. However, some of the ringleaders scaled the walls of the Church-yard and interrupted the Minister in the service by loud cries. On the return of the procession they were again pelted with nand. The prisoner was one of the most active of the rioters. The widow of the deceased described the prisoner as having been conspicuously engaged in the riot. The prisoner mas held to bail, and committed to prison for want of sureties. Warrants have been granted for the appre hension of others concerned in the disgraceful outrage. QUEZN-SQUARZ.—Yesterday, Stephen Lanford was charged by James Morrison, a private in the Foot Guards, with abusing him near the Barracks at Constitution Hill. The complainant stated, that on Saturday evening be was on duty, when the pri soner uttered the most provoking and abusive language towards him, calling him all sorts of infamous names. The prisoner ex pressed his sorrow for what he had done; he said he was a little in liquor at the time, and trusted that the Magistrate would look over his offence. The worthy Magistrate (Mr. Iltynsroan) observed, that it was his bounden duty to protect individuals like the complainant, and it was most scandalous that they should have applied to them such disgraceful language as the prisoner had used; but as the prisoner had expressed his contrition for his offence, he would suffer hinnto be discharged, provided he could nuke his peace with the soldier. The parties then with ' drew, and amicably arranged the matter. .HATION43ARDEN.—FALsz ALaass.—Sunday night the greatest curiosity was excited, and various conjectures were afloat, at a light being observed by the watchmen and passengers, in St. James's church, Clerkenwell. The general idea was, that it was some supernatural being paying its nightly visit to th e edifice. At length the circumstance was named to the sexton • and he, having possession of the keys of the church, proceede d In com pany with several others to ascertain what it really was. On opening the doors of the church all was very silent, and, with fearful steps, they explored the interior, when, on searching the Vestry, they were dreadfully astonished at a loud snoring; and, on further inspection, they found the fire alight, and two wo men very comfortably seated in chairs, fast asleep. They were instantly roused from their slumber, and called upon to account for their being in such an extraordinary place at that hour in the night, when it turned out that they entered the church to hear a funeral service in the afternoon, and, having fallen asleep, were locked in, and did not awake till it was quite dark, and they had found out the coal cellar, and the tinder-box, by which means they ignited a fire. They were taken to the watch•house, and yesterday morning were brought to Hatton-garden Office, where they related their adventure to the Magistrate, and there being no reason to doubt the truth of their statement, they were discharged. • The Commissioners of Customs have reported their belief that there has been no clandestine importation of fureign corn.

Idsiority fur Sir W. :441ww, —ls. • • , SUMMER ASSIZE& EXETER, AUGUST John Chapman, agea27, was tried upon a chat's of having murdered his wife, Sarah Chapman, on tba 20th of May last. _ _ _ Mr. STEPHINS stated the case for the ptosecution. The first witness called was James Oxenham, who lives in the parish of St. Pancras Wick. He knew the prisoner and his wife, the deceased, and he knew alto a man named Robinson. On the 20th of May last he saw Mri. Chapman and the man named Ro binson together, drinking at a public-house on the Mayor:lly road, between six and seven o'clock ht the evening. After drinking some ale together, they went away, smd.preweeded up the road, arm in arm. The witness, at about thirty yards from them, met the prisoner, John Chapman, running, with a gun in his hand, and be looked in such a " wished," or mad waT, that the witness was afraid to stop him, for fear he should take his life. The witness had only time to ask him where he was going? to which, as well as he could recollect, the prisoner re plied-1, lam going after my wife, and if she does net come back I'll shoot her." Shfirtly after the prisoner had passed, the witness heard the report of a gun, and saw his wife fall to the round. He was prevented, by the interposition of a bush, from seeing the prisoner. There was no difficulty in taklisg him. He seemed as if he had come out of a mad-house. Cross-examined by Mr. Wtwasts.—The prisoner had been married nine months, and appeared to have great affecdon for his wife. He worked very hard, and made nine days a week, to provide for her. He appeared at the time in dreadful distress of mind, and scarcely to know what he was about ; and when same one said—" John, your wife is dead I" he said—" Is she? Who has killed her?" Grace Chapman stated, that on the evening of the Seth of May last, she saw Mrs. Chapman and Robinson together on the OVls worthy-road, about a quarter of a mile from Oxenhanis house. She saw, soon after, the prisoner, John Chapman, with a gun in his hand, come running up to his wife. Ile asked her to oome back ; when she replied, No. He said if she did not come back he would shoot her, but she disregarded him, and turned her back to walk on with her paramour Robinson, when the pri soner fired, and she fell Cross-examined.—The prisoner appeared in a higher passion than the witness had ever seen him in before that moment, for he was in general a very quiet and inoffensive man. Mrs. Chap- man touched her paramour by the arm, and said, " Come along, Robinson ;" and she fell dead. William Lloyd deposed that, on the 20th of May last, he met the prisoner running on the Oldsworthy road, with a gun in his hand, and foaming at the mouth, and looking like a aaad dog. Witness saw him touch his wife by the arm, and endeavoured to persuade her to come back, but she said she would not, and went on saying, " Robinson, come along." The prisoner levelled at her, and shot her dead. Cross-examined—Then had been a sham wedding that morn ing at. a public-house, between Robinson and Mrs. Chapman, over a broom. The witness saw the prisoner come in whilst all this was going forward, and in tears ask his wife to come back, promising her that, if she would return to her home, he would forg've her everything. She sat with her arms round the other man's neck, and disregarded all the solicitations of the pri• setter. When the prisoner had done the deed, he foamed•at the mouth, and his face was as white as snow. Several other witnesses were examined. The prisoner, in a written defence, stated that he was driven to distraction by the infidelity of his wife, and took the gun to frighten her back, but did not know that it was loaded. James Baker, den. knew prisoner six months; prisoner was a vet y kind and inoffen.ive man ; very kind to his wife ; he always, on a Saturday night, gAve his money to her. James Baker, jun. examined-Lives at Pitworthy; has a corn chamber, with a door, fourteen feet from the ground ; saw the prisoner, on the 20th May, jump from it, like a madman ; there are stairs another way ; he had a gun in his hand ; it had been charged the latter end of March ; Henry Cory charged it. Pd *ones had the privilege of going into the corn-chamber ; he usu ally slept there. Mr. Justice RICHARDSON, in charging_ the Jury, said, that the deceased came to her death by the act of her husband there could not be the slightest doubt. With respect to the law," said the Learned Judge, a a person who is out of his mind is by it deeMed in capable of crime, because incapable of reason. But you must distinguish between a high degree of pas sion and decided insanity ; for the law does not al low the same indulgence to a person under the con troul of a furious passion, nor allow the plea of an absence of reason from that cause to mitigate the offence; for every man is bound to curb his passion, and the law allows no man, however great the pro vocation, short of a blow or personal violence, to be come the executioner of his own vengeance, and to deprive another of life. In this painful and distress ing case, some parts of which it is impossible to hear with dry eyes, it is evident that the unfortunate prisoner had very great excitation,from the bold and shameless infidelity of his unworthy wife; but if, notwithstand ing, you should be of opinion that he set out after her, being under the influence of jealousy, the most deadly and irresistible of the passions, with a loaded gun, with intent to shoot her, then, I am afraid, you must, in your duty, find the prisoner guilty of murder."— The Learned Judge then read over his notes of the evidence, and observed, if they should think fiom it that the prisoner had set out with the gun, as he stated, not knowing it to be loaded, but that he had levelled and pulled the trigger merely to frighten the deceased, but not intending to kill her, then they would find him guilty of manslaughter. If they thought him devoid of all reason at the time, and absolutely mad, they would find him not guilty. If, however, they were satisfied that lie went with the gun and shot his wife under the influence of a blind and furious passion, then, however great might have been his provocation, they must find him guilty of murder. The Jury deliberated for about ten minutes, and returned a verdict finding the prisoner guilty of Man slaughter.—The sentence was, that the prisoner should be imprisoned and kept to hard labour in the jail of this County for the space of one year. Mary Gibson, aged l 6 years, a beautiful girl, stood charged with the capital offence of maliciously set ting fire to some houses, the property of William Matthews a,nd Ann Searle, in Staverton, on the 21st of March last. The first count of the indictment failed, inasmuch as it did not state the tenant's name who occupied the cottage; on the second, it went to the Jury, by the Learned Judge's directions, to say, whether they could believe a girl like the prisoner cotald be guilty, from the evidence they had heard, of wilfully setting fire to the houses stated in the in dictment? and it they did not, of course she must be acquitted. All that had been said was, that she had thrown a lighted stick into the pig -sty, by which two cottages were burnt down ; and that, when questioned as to her having committed the act, she said, bursting into tears, lam sorry for itl" and again—a 0, if they had sent me but to London, this would never have happened r —words, said the compassionate and feeling Judge, I think too vague to convict the pri soner of this dreadful charge. The Jury instantly acquitted her. AUGUST 4. John Raddon, an unfortunate maniac, was charged with having, on the 2d of May last, at Stoke Dame rel, cut with a razor, or some sharp instrument, the throat of Mary Raddon, his wife, with intent to mur der her.
