JOHN WILKES, Hes. Secretary. • SURREY THEATRE. We again visited this charming and well. conducted theatre list evening, and were highly gratified at seeing a very crowded audience; the house, we th.tik, was as full as on the first night, but infinitely more select, consequently we had a better opportunity of •ystrecialiat the merit of the pieces, and we must do Mr. Dianne the justice to acknowledge we were never more pleased and de lighted. Belisarins would do honour to theboards or either of our nalional theatres ; we do not recol lect a piece prodtkced by them possessing more general interest, clearness and strength of lon guage, or better acted. The great scene is the sine in the second act between HUNTLEY, Miss 'F•vtoa, and BENGOUGII it is completely new and original, most powerfully effective, and % we will venture to assert, the performance of it is equal to any tbiog we have at present on the stage. The third act rises with an intensity of interest, which keeps the spectator's feelings alive to the last moment. It is most splendidly and carefully got up, and we hope Mr. Mama will feel his reward, by a continuation of such brilliant" houses as we saw last night. Peggy Larkins fol lowed, and was received with roars of laughter and opplesse througl:out, and when the curtain fell the audience gave three cheers. A correspondent informs us, that on New Year's day his*Grace the Duke of NORTHUMEEELAND displayed his usual liberality, in giving at the Duclieis's new dairy rooms, on the backs of the Alu, to his workmen and labourers, consisting of about 200, a dinner of roast beef, mutton, plum pud dings, &c. together with several butts of strong ale from the Castle. His Grace condescended to pre• side and dine at the table, and carved plentifully to his numerous guests, whilst the Duchess and several other visitant ladies, waited on the company with officious politeness; after dinner, whilst the Raggons were going round, several appropriate image were sung, and !toddle drunk, and after opeading the evening with the utmost conviviality, the highly-gratified company orderly departed to their respective homes, tosuring their blessings oat their liberal benefactors. Such as had families were ordered to attend the next day, to clear the loaded benches of their fragments, and to drain the butts of their contents. Ills Grace also or dered a survey to be made amongst the poor who needed blankets mid bedding , coals, &c. in order to their being supplied with tose necessary articlte, in this inclement season. It is stated by Lord Bouttnottoan, in his le. marks on the History of Englund (page7o), that the discontent of the natiun tens sufficient to have given that unfortunate and usided Prince, RICHARD 11.. such a warning as might have induced him to abandou is Ministers.. , But they," says his Lord " persuaded him that they suffered for his sake: that the out of his enemies was to dethrone HIS, by disgracing them; and whilst all the trou bles of Ilia reign were due to his support of them, they made him believe that they watered fur exe cuting his orders, and maintaining his authority. Nay, they represented to him, that by.accusing the Ministers. a was plainly slims that he believes the Nosereign incapable of governing, and that the readiest way to discredit a Prince is persuading his subjects that he makes use of ill Ministers." Friday morning a letter was received at the Custom-{Dose from Lieutenant WHITE, R.N. Imorcting Officer of the Preventive Water Guard at Wexford, elating that a smuggler. called the Leather Legs, has lre.o totally lust near Cansore Point, and all :lauds perished. This vessel had landed part of her cargo,, which, through the acti vity of Lieutenant ‘VIIITe. has been seized, and safely lodged in Wexford Custom-house.

COURT OF tint's BENCH, Gunotuzz, WSDNIBIDAT, JAIIII/6110f 10. Before the LOAD CHIEF JUSTICS tad C*lllllllo* Jwriss. This being the first day of the adjourned sit bogs, his Lordship sat at Nisi Prise. WELDON V. BALCOMDZ. This was an action for money had sad received. Mr. Gnaws' stated the following facts to the Jury :—The Plaintiff' in this collardC4ptain in the East India Company's servic4V iwa n the year. 1809, intrusted the Defendeed..who was • mercantile agent resident at St. Helen. with 120 bolts of Bengal canvass, with direetkows to Pell it by public auction, at a price which he limited; but if the canvass would not fetch that price at St. Helena, he was to send it to Mr. Anion. the Plaintiff's agent at the Cape of Good Hope. Eighty bolts of canvass were sold agreeably to the Plaintiff's directions, but' the remaining 40 holt., instead of being sent to the Cape of Good Hope, Were, by the Defendant, seat to a Mr. Hall. an agent of his own, at Rio Janeiro, and sold there. Au account of sales, stating the net proceeds at 121/. Se. 2d. was rendered to the Plaintiff in 1810, and an order given to receive the money from Mr. Hall, in England ; but the Plaintiff had never been able to find Mr. Hall, and had not received a shit-. ling of the money. Under these circumstances the Plaintiff brought this action. to recover the amount of the 40 bolts of canvass front the Defendant, as he had not complied with the directions of the Plaintiff in the mode of disposing of it. The Plaintiff's instruction., dated May, 1509. and the account sales, dated 25th August, 1810, were put in; as also a letter of the Defendant to the Plaintiff, dated sat September, 1819. Mr. MARRTATT, for the Defendant, contended, that the Plaintiff's instructions had been complied with. it being necessary, for the purpose of getting the canvass admitted to entry at the Cape of Good Hope, that it should pass for Portuguese property, and to that end it had been shipped by the De fendant for Rio Janeiro, to be sent from thence to the Cape. He admitted that Mr. Hall, to whom the canvass, with other goods of the Defendant, was consigned, had soil the canvass, and never account ed to the Plaintiff, nor paid over the proceeds to him ; but neither had he paid it to the Defendant, and therefore if the Plaintiff could claim for this canvass from the Defendant, he submitted that the form of action should have been hover, and not money had and received. The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE said, he had great doubts on the subject ; bat as the case presented itself now, there did not iippesr to be any thing to leave to the Jury ; he should therefore neasarit the Plaintiff, with liberty to move to eater a ver dict for 121/. Si. id. the balance claimed. He thought that if the canvass were sent to Rio Jane iro, on its way to Mr. Amnon. at the Cape of Good Hope, under the Plaintiff's directions, it was so sent for the purpose of contravening theiffavigation Laws, and the voyage being illegal, the Plaintiff could not recover. If it were sent for sale to Rio Janeiro. as the best thing that could bottom for the Plaintiff's interest, then Hall must be consi dered as the Plaintiff's agent, and he could not re cover against this Defendant. If the canvass were sent to Rio Jeneiro on account or the Defendant, as the account sales stated, then the action un doubtedly should have been trover. The Plaintiff was accordingly called. The Contr was afterwards occupied in trying causes of no public interest. OLD BAILEY, I -•1111/ARY 10.

Hall being knocked down in Charles-street; just before it he saw the Prisoners come out of the Coach and Horses public-house, in Charles-street, sod go towards Drury-lane ; there was a third men standing in Drury-lane, facing Charles-street ; he also knew that man, but he is net in custody; he heard one of the three whistle ' , and observed the man in Drury-lane shove Mr. Hall ; the Prisoners pulled him into Charles-street, threw hint down, and struck him with an ash stick ; the third man then went up to the Prisoners, sod said something, but what it was the 'item did not hear; on which the Prisoner Wootten held up his hand, and it was then the watch was taken from Mr. Hall, as he saw the seals hanging from Wootien's hand ; the Pri soner Bullock was the person who had the stick and struck Mr. Hall ; he knew it was an ash stick, for he had often seen it before with Bullock. He had not the least doubt but the Prisoners were two of the men who knocked down sod robbed Mr. Hell. On his erase-examination, be said be did not give any information to the police offices of tbe robbery, as be was afraid of the Prisoners doing him a mischief; he pointed out the Prisoners to the officers from amidst toasty OWN/. fikl oddment, in ofiicesonotedetbet be apprehended the Prisoners, from the description of the lest wit nese, and took them to the Spread Eagle public house, in Broad-street, where the boy Margate pointed them out, although they were mixed with other persona; os searching the Prisoner Bullock, he found on him 11. 16s. to silver, and the gold watch which he produced.

He knew no watchmaker of the name of Thomas Anthony in Loudon. There had been a complete new face pot to the watch since he saw it last, and number, what is called new christening . a smack. which might be dote in 12 hours, but with all the alterations he had no doubt it was the lame watch he repaired for Mr. Hall. Henry Savoury, another watchmaker, corrobo., rated the testimony of the last witness as to the identity of the watch. Mr. Hall was again called. and said, he had no hesitation in swearing that the watch produced was the same that he had been rubbed of. The Prisoner Wootten. in his defence, said, be he could prove he was in another place when the robbery was committed, and that the boy Margate ought not to believed, as he did not understand the nature of an oath. The Prisooer Bullock said, he purchased the .watch fur 81. los. They called two witnesses to prove an alibi, but their evidence was contradictory, and they also had, on a former occasion, stood at the bar, and been convicted, one for receiving stolen goods, and the other fur house-breaking.
