The Opera of La Soissesso wan hissed throughout. The dnap etabaiers of the audience was priiicipally directed againet Medium Cnlh,ii, who, whenever she ap. peered, was saluted with groans and whistles, and cries of tt off!" and .other noises and recta matious of the O.P: school. Of the *well 11111111bcr of Ladies present, several left the Theatre. Ears attuned to the delicate airs of halloo melodies, could ill bear the horrid and discordant din, which ' continued the whole ef the night, to the conclusion of the Ballet, when it burst out into ar tuul tumult' and riot. We have more than once noticed the pre railing discontent which has marked the perturb.' of the season, since its commencement at tins House, occasioned by the growl iniscauduct of that miser able Mausger, Mr. Taylor. Season lifter season has the bolero Opera, uuderthe auspices and direc tion of that was,, been falling tuns decay ; but, on the opening of the present season, it rapeseed to have reached the last stage of imperfection. The pieces brought out were wretched. The magical departmeut was worthy of the pieces ; and. al though Veraris and Deithayes, as dancers, possess merit, their carnotite were inefficient, from the want of taste and genius in the constriction of the bal lets. Here was the true and only canoe of the growing discontent on the part of the public. It was a just cause, and Mr. Taylor was well aware of it. He could loot expect that there was to be no end to the patience of his subscribers, and that ha would be antlered to draw such immense sums from them iu subscriptions, withoue say adequate return. They were accordingly assured in puffs and para graphs, in the Newspapers devoted to his service, that pieces of extmiordivary merit were in prepara tion—that artists of extraordinary merit, and par ticularly a first-rate singer, from Rotterdam, we suppose a Dutch Lady, were engaged. and might be soon expected to make their appearaoce ; and, to crown all, they antionneed the arrival of Madame Catalani. to resume her place. In the mean time • system of espiostsaire was established within doors. The British subjects, who dated to express their disapprobation in the Italian- Theatre, were marked mad proscribed, and a plan, thus form-- ed. to exclude all freedom of thought, and independence of principle, from the Theatre, by ctsriverting it into a receptacle for tits patient slaves of the Manager. In the proscribed list.the extent of which is said to be coireiderable. was the Pere/fusee. an inmate in the family of the Duke of Queensberry. one of the most liberal Patrons of the Theatre. This Gentleman, who hat Ii en previously upon the free list, presented hisitell as amid, but was re fused admittance, and informed that his name eras erased from the books. 'flies disappointed, he procured the Duke of Qweentberry's ticket, but that also was dishonoured. l e thee' offered money, but with no better succese. The mighty dictator of the Opera-House had placed hem on the proscribed list, and, neither lore or money, sou ; let or charm, could mitigate hi, sentence, or tempt time faithful door-keeper to violate the positive instractions of his master. A siege of this sort could not have been so long maintain ed without attracting notice. Among those who happosed. to arrive. while it was going for ward, were Sir Godfrey Vi'tbster, and several other men of hellion. who soon became se quainter' with the binry. They were, at the seine tune, apprized of the extent of the proscription, end told, that it aver Lord Yarmouth should offer himself, he would be refused admittance. The knowledge of such eurineirsue, insolent, and in:o. lerable conduct, on the part of this iniscrahle. ungrateful Manager. who owed every thing tt the public favour. soon found its way in', the inte terior. and in proportion as it became diffused, the discontent increased, until it broke out, as we have stated, in absolute tumult and confusion. The Manager W;l4 repeatedly called for, but no Manager appeared. The Pit, full of indignation, rose. and. clearing the ()rehears. darted upon the stage.where a posse of 300 gentlemen were *non assembled.— Mr. Weil, the Trecturer. stood forward to answer for the absent and invisible Manager ; and, as a pa nacea, assured the audience, that Madame Catalani should be immediately engaged. Now. mark the. insolence of this promise.-edt reams, then. that Mr. Taylor thought that all the discontent, rind all the disapprobation expressed since the mencement of the 'mean. would have horn avoided by engaging Madame Catalani. The audience received this overture with becoming spirit. Madame Catalani ought to have been en gaged, from the beginning, upon the most liberal terms that the Theatre could afford, and her transcendent merits entitled her to. That was her proper place. But the spokesman, ow the part of the audience. answered, that it had ceased to be a question about Madame Catalani. That of fence was now ithsorbed in u much more important question; the public were insulted by a gross and arbitrary act of partial exelueien ; Ned the public must have redress. An orator, on the pert of the invisible Manager, we believe, Colon(' O'Kelly, re plied, that the Opera-House was a Subscription- Tneatre, and not one to which the public had ad- Initialler promiscuously ; and, of course, that the Maritger was at liberty to exclude such part of the public as he thought proper. This attempt of jus tification only Mereseed the storm. It is. indeed, ridiculous to contend, that a place of amusement, conducted us the Italian o,eera has been for nearly twenty sear (the late Opera-House was, we believe. homed dowu in 17ri9) as a place of ause t esu eo s, where the pee& have paid their money at the door, and been admitted without risecrimination, precisely in the way orCovent-garden and Drury-laue,should now, for the first tune, plead th e p r i e u eguia e a jr i m :, coucerir ; and, above all thiags, that the Meaner should dare, not only to reduce the audience to a .elect csmnsittee, but to a select commutate , ' of his own choosing, to tie exclossoa of some of his most generous friends and liberal patrons. Much end warm altercate)°, of course. ensued; and Mr. Reed was given to uudeatand, that nothing but a com mete and satisfactory public apology, and promise of r !dress for the grove injury sustained, would sn ,,sfy the public, sad this %idiom delay. Here again 'he frends of the invieible Manager interfered. urging, that Mr. Reed, as an egret without in stroctione, and °illy coraioG forward on the spur of the occasion, in the atinanitiallie abode* of the Maa hager, could not enter into aynitive undertaking for his employer. This argument was not without effect, and it was accordiskgly agreed that Mr. Reed should couvey to Mr. Taylor the asatimeots of the public ; which were, that he moat make a full and public apology, for the and stowar.: rentable insult offered to th e purir before tomor— row night, accompanied, at the same time, with a satisfactory assurance of reform cud senendineutw And with that assurance ou the part of Dir. Rued. uproar relaxed its violence, and the pattiei began to separate. To-morrow night is, of course, looked fothard to with great anxiety. We hope to be able twannounce, by that time, that Catalans is engaged on liberal terms, that other shins of OW Dent are shortly to make their appearance; for, as one swallow does not make a summer, the public, who pay Of bo profusely to Mr. Taylor, ought not to he ratistied with one great actress; and, above *, all, that Mr. Taylor has made a full and public apolo 4 y. correspouding with the gross, andacioaab anAt scauthslum. insult which this miserable ingrate hos given to the public. A MONriTER. On Salurilry last, about seven o'clock is dial ev g. mi Elisabeth Shelia, a servant to Mrs. wha resides at the Queen's Palace, was returning home, she was attacked by • tall man, is a long dark great cost. near Davies -street, Berko. ley-square. The villain struck the yonag woman in the era with a sharp instrument made like • lancet. The misfortunate sufferer. who is nineteen years of age, proceeded to Miss 01 1 1 . worthy's house, in 11i11-street , Berkeley-squires where she received every attention, and was takes to the Queen's Palace ; surgical assistance was lm. mediately obtained, and. upon examining the wound. it was found the instrument had peuetrated to the very time of the arm. CHARGE OF MURDER. On Monday night. Mr. Ralph Bowden . , p oser of His Majesty's ship Ruse, statilied Mr. John klnagie, master's mete of that *hip. at +lse Wheat. sheaf Coffee-house, Porton'. of - which wound he soon afterwards died. Mr. Pringle had been I ou board the Rose, as commanding °Seer, with di. rectious ont to leave the ship; instead of whack he enticed Mr. Bowden to go on shore. They walked to the Halfway-teases together, and etairarde went to the Wlseaubsaf, at shoat sieves o'clock et s l ight, to drink some grog. Prink mid he wield not leave the boom till he had had supper, and em, dered stunt: accordingly. Bowden eget out of Use home, with a supposed intention of golog es beerds he. however. returned in about five soutetak wed. finding the deceased at supper, belmaiteitemileet to sit down to partake with him. eeillW 'MINN were in the adjoining boxes of the cake-06in; tied were witnesses that no angry words peeped Demme them.
