DRURY-LANE THEATRE. A new tnelo-dramm, is. two act., entitled, Tile Turret Clock, was produced at this Theatre last right, The scene is laid in Spain. The follow mg is r rketeli of the plot :--Dlr. Ns LET. an English officer, is iu love with Lereum, the daughter of Bassani°, a rich merchant. The young Lady, apprized of the approaching arrival of now Alrarez. whom her father insists she shell merry, agrees to elope with her English lover.— The plan for this purpose is comtnunicated by Iloselle. her timid, Mrs. A Lsoe, to Mr. H•astir, the servant of the lover. on their way through it neighbouring forret, mid is overheard I;y a banditti who infested it. The leader of the banditti resolves to personate the loser, a n d to carry the voting lady off, fur the sake of her jewels. Nvor the house of Baxsanau they fall in with and attack Aleurez, who is saved lit tire Ere:Milt "Hirer; and the father. to %hew his uruto ode for this service. insists upon deteining the latter to plrtAke of hie hospitality. The turret clock mow strike. Icrier, the hour appointed for tlw elopement. The lover is unable to effect his escape foots his host, and the Captain of the banditti fills his place, and carries off his mistress. The flight of Lerena he ing soon discovered, the lover, with the rest of the tinnily, go iu pursuit ef her. Chance brings him to air Mu, iii which he finds the Ceptaiii of the banditti, who had robbed the young lady, mill abandinied her in the forest, proposing to sell a pearl necklace. part of her ornaments, to some tiavel!ing merchants, wl lie met there. He challenges the necklace, and temuses the robber ; they fight, the robber falls, and it is supposed is killed. The lover is seized and carried off for trial. In some of the earlitrr scenes we find the M eanie of Seville has died, and all the citizen* having declined to accept the office, it devolves, by the law of the place, on the first stranger who enters it. This chance happens to Lerena. who, after she had been abandoned in the forest by the robber, woollies male attire. and proceeds to Seville.— Rather than betray her seciet, she accrete the office, and is scarcely invested with it. wheu her lower is brought before her for trial. The robbery being no justification of the alleged murder. the stew Alcatle is in a state of great emberrarponrut, from which she is relieved by the entrance of the robber, whose wound fortunately did not prove mortal. and who is brought there on a charge of having robbed the most to which 110 had been carried after the tight. The father of the young lady also makes his appearance at the same tune, and identi fies his daughter's necklace. The young holy also discovers herself, and her union with her lover be come* certain, in pursuance of a promise suede by her father on the first discovery of her eloiwniesit. The plot of this piece. altlionli complex, is clear, and develupes itself naluially. It is uni t* ly progressive, and fixes the attention by the variety of its ineidests and situations. With snore than ordinary life and hustle, the acene never flags for a moment. The dialogue is sprightly, with few pretensions or attempts at wit. The part of the widow of the late Aleade of Seville, a sort of Ephrsian matron, personated by Mrs. HsaLowe, has some good points, which she love with effect; and Mrs. A ',sue infused into the little part of the maid of Lerena all the interest of which it is susceptible ; she was arch and sprightly, but chaste and delicate. Iveas, Nlr. HARLEY, and the other performers, acquitted themselves very well. The scenery is handsome, and the dresses are superb, but there is nothing captivating in the poetry or the music. The piece was heard throughout with uniform eye laicise, and astununred for repetitious. The house displayed a full and fashionable audience.

There was not w single liiinesl Counsel iu Court, and only four Barristers outside of the Bur. His Lordship called oil Mr. IllonNit to move, which he did, hat it was only a motion of course. The business of the Court was then at a stand. The LORD CUANCELLOR did not express his approbation at not being better attended, but rose hastily and retired to his private room. The King's Counsel having come into Court, his Lordship returned and resumed his seat. APPEALS. GITTENB C. Wr661., The LORD CHANCRLLOR—" I do not think it will be necessary !Or you, Mr. Wetherell, to reply in thin came lt is an appeal from the judgment of his H the late Vice-Chancellor. As Friday will be a holiday. I will read the will in my closet on that day, and give my judgment on Saturday. The only material question. as I take it, is, whether a legacy of 7,0001. with the payment of his debts and funeral expenses, left by the testator charge able on his freehold and leaotholti rotates, part of which he disposed of before his decease, can now be chargeable on his residuary property. His Ho nour decided it was. However I may differ from that opinion, allow me now to remark. as I did in ■ similar case, that of Booth, that my differing in opinion from loin, or reversing his judgment, does not take away from the merit of the Judge. My own judgment may be brought before another tri bunal and reversed ; and if on, I would say they were right ; that they acted conscientiously ; and at the seine time I could put my hand to my breast and say, in differing from tnem I acted from the raw motive. This Court, formed as it is of three component parts, each acting conscientiously from his own experience and feelings as a Jude,g one part cannot he offended by another dif fering► from it. Perhaps, it is necessary that I should say thus much. as I understand these are ■ number of similar appeals to come before me, I will consider each of them as ►f judg ment never had been given in them, and as if they were only mentioord iii Court for the first time. This cannot give offence. We must all recollect the case of the Duke of Lancaster, as reported, that three Commissioners sitting where I how sit, and men of the first legal abilities, and also of in tegrity, gave judgment that was reversed by the first Lord Chancellor that sat here. Ite the cases of wills, t h at Learned and enlightened Judge, the late Master of the Rolls (Sir William Grant) whose resignation must be always considered a pule lie loss, laid it down as a law, which 1 have strictly followed, that you st mint judge from the teuour of an entire a ill, the specific meaning of a testator, as to an individual bequest; amid from the little 1 have seen of the instrument before me, I perceive the testator has guarded every species of his property, by having devised it fur certain purposes ; even his residuary property he has disposed of to meet legacies to hr paid weekly to relatives, and to provide for their funeral expenses, to relations who certainly had wearer consanguinity to him than his other legatees. It certainly has been most ably put by Mr. Horne, as he does on every UCCatiloll whet. atitireb.ing this Bench, that if the testator meant that his debts and funeral expenses should be paid out of his residuary 'property, he must also have intended that the legacy of 7,0001. should come out of the fund. The reasoning is good, but it is contrary to law, for if the debts of the testator were not mentioned in the will, his creditors would be entitled to be paid out of his personal estate. I will read. the will, and give you my judgment 011 Saturday." Judgment postponed. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, WrsTmisrma, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 2 The Court this clay went through the Crown Paper.
