This piece. which in the days of KING was so very sits ,tractive. has slept for some year•. Its revisal was received last night by a full and fa►hionable house with every mark of satisfaction and applause. It was admirably performed in all its parts...so well, indeed, as to leave the most fastidious critic liitle to complain of. Mr. W. FARREN played the part of Sir John Trolley, and we never witnessed H more rich, a more correct, or a snore Nowell piece 4 .1 acting. Oue would .suppose that Ihe character was written for Mr. rastaan.--Nir ✓ohn Trolley is one of those testy old gentlemen of the old school Mr. FARRIER is so diStlllif WOW! for repre senting wills truth and spirit. —lle has lived in the country it life of ease, ►imphcity. sod virtue, but is dragged up to visit his relations in Loudon, where he is grieved and disgusted at the vanities and vices of the town—every object excites his auger or his sorrow, from the new tied tail of his man Davy, sip to the atrocious fopperies of his mimeo, Lord Minikes.—Throtgliont Mr. FA MIEN sustained the part with the greatest ability, and met its every scene with deserved 'applause. Lord 'Walken was acted by Mr. RICHARD JONES—he personated the empty and dissolute sprig of• nobility w.th truth and spirit; the air of easy impudence with which he beard the reproaches of Sir John Trolley, when discovered with Miss Grub, gave a clear view of a shameless and worthless coxcomb. Mr. EMERY leisytil Davy, the country servant—Mr. FARI.EY play(' Jessamy ; both filled their places with great merit; and Mr. ABBOTT'S Colonel Area was justly applauded. The part of Miss 'reship was played by Miss BRONION with easy roil with unaffected grace, yet with a force that was sure to leave H steep impression livoind. Ws. GIBBS, sit Lady Manikin, was much applauded, and deser vedly. INSOLVNNT DF:BTORS' ACT. A Meeting was yesterday held of the Inhabitants of the Ward of .:as' 111)nard, at the Chinch of St. Gregory, for the purpose of considering the proprii ty of petitioning Parliament to prevent * relies/al of .lie Insolvent Debtors' Act. At tiAelve o'clock the chair was taken by Alder man J. J. SMITH. Mr. Huacomse then proposed a series of Reso lutions, the object of which was to she*, that thr operation of the present Act was most injurious to traderr,and that the principle wee also had. Mr. BAILEY seconded tle Resolutions. Mr. SLADE admitted that in the details of the Insolvent Debtors' Act many amendments might be made ; but he Contendtd that its principle was just, and founded on reason. He said that the real view of the question was, to look at the state of the law before the passing of this Act, and the present state. Oil the former occasion the gaols were crowded with debtors, who were only discharged by repealed Acts of Grace. Mr. Goovvira and Mr. BAILEY contended, that the principle of ao Act which worked so badly in its operation could not he good. Mr. Iluacomac said, that if the Act were to be continued, it must be to keep up a place for a lawyer. After several verbal amendments in the Resolu tions, they were carried, and Petitions founded upon them ordered to be presented to both Houses of Parliament. SPARRING, There was a benefit at the Fives Court yesterday fur Neste. From the pains which had bees taken to assure the politic of the treat which Ci Davis, Cabbage, and young Nicholls, the Bristol men, would afford, it was expected that the Court would have been well attended; but it was the wry reverse, it being the general opinion that Neste was not entitled to a benefit, as be had received 1001. for beat. ing Oliver by • dames blow, and refusing to fight again. The western nursery, however, have now no men equal to the London ring professors, of their weight. The only sets-to of interest were those is which the Brim. tol men we,e engaged. After Lennox had commenced with Mason, the first set•to was between West Country Dick and young Nicholls, in which Dick had the best of some ruffian. ing bouts. Nicholls hits from the elbow, and is far from effective. _ _ _ Neale and Shelton—Much wu expected from this set-to, but Neate sadly disappointed the amateurs, as he made a very lame bout of it. Shelton placed must of his bits, and drew claret from his adversary's mouth, and kept him at disadvantageous work, until he ins wore oat with piping. Shelton, although not a first-rate sp rrrrr r bad every thing his own way. Scroggius and Cabbage.—This' Was the best and the only good match of the day. The men are nearly equal weights, and they have often been on the pointlof being matched. Their attacks upon each other Were manly and effective. They floored each other with hitting, and turned to again like real good ours. Science was not resorted to, but it was bit for bit until their performance drew down thunders of applause trots the asseesiblage, and Ninnies from their pockets. Cabbage pocketed the roats, but Scruggins thought it was not ganileinanlp, and - refused to do so. Neate and Harmer sett*, but it was a complete bar league, by giving the head for Neale to hit at for the purpose of stopping or parrying. • Of the new performers Cabbage is the best, and the only owe of any peon.. ; he was challenged by Scroggins, and it will no doubt be a fight. Neste realised what was expected, and be takes no notice of Sutton's challenge, but is resolved on returning to the West to Hope bullocks rather thsu risk the colour of his feathers in auy mere prize fights ('I Davis, who is challeuged by Reynolds, did not make Aw appearanee.—What would the Chicken have said of his etioutryinen ?

Mr. RouPELI.. at the rising of the Court, asked his Lordship for his judgment in this case. The Loan CHANCELLOR—” It dile, not staid for my judgment. As well as my recollection serves me, it stood over for the purpose of my re ceiving further information on the questions so dis pute between the parties." Mr. liourata.—" The question that we ask your Lordship to give your judgment on, came before you in the way of an appeal from the dec.- sion of the Vice-Chancellor, his Honour having allowed an exception to the Master's report, sod ordered that Mr. Waters shuuld pay the sum of 8.0001. into Court, being part of the purchase money fur the Opera-house." The SoLIicITOR-GENERAL, Counsel fo► Mr. Waters, said that stoat win was merely a matter of Recount. and it was impossible tor his Lordship to decide the question without the accounts were lolly entered into before him. _ The LORD CHANCELLOR—" I expected that the Solicitors of the parties would have furnished one with their calculations. for I confers I do not under stand the question, and without their assistance it is probable I never will." Mr. ROUPELL—" The question on which I asked your Lordship's judgment is not a mutter of ac•- count, it is merely for your Lordship to approve or disapprove B.f the decision of his Honour the Vice- Chancellor." The LORD CHANCELLOR —is I may he accused of dulness and wont of appretliaision, and I err.. taisily plead guilty to both charges, as it relertris to the Opera-house, for it is the most incomprehensible cue that ever came before me, but I know of no mode of getting rid of it except giving up a whole day, at some period that will not interfere with the buoineva of the other suitor' of the Court."

Ike DUKE of BEDVORD P. WHITE. This action was brought for the purpose of de ciding whether the Noble Duke was ectitled to re ceive a toll of 4.1. per sack, on every sack of po tatoes packed in Covriit-garden Mat ket. The seal Plaintiff was the lessee of the Duke. the Defendant is a salesman of respectability. The action brought WAIT the Act of tbes3d ofthe King, for the regulation of Covent-garden Market, winch Act re. served to the Noble Duke all tolls that he had been accustomed to receive, previous to the pitying of that statute. It was proved by 'mums wit. tames, some of whom had been connected with the suarket, for 50 years, that they had always paid a toll of 4d. per sack, for pitching, exposing to sale, and potatoes in Corelit-garden Nlas ket. Whereas] individual leased a regular shed iii the market, the toll was not demanded—but those who pitched their potatoes outside of what was called the boundary-stone, had always been actua. Wined to pay toll.
