The License un der IA hich the Cobourg and Theatres of a similar ticEcription ate open to the'Peblic, is en annual one, granted under the authority of en Act of Par liament of the 25th of George 11. by a full Bench of Magistrates, of the County in which the Thea tre is situate, and expresses to he for the perform ,-,re of entertainmonts of music and dancing. Under this License the performances of the Co bourg:Theatre have been. invariably represented and regulated. Every piece brought for ward has b een s t u diously made the vehicle tor' the introdec lion of music and dancing ; a regular Ballet Com hea been engaged, together with many singers of the first eminence.

They have re peatedly sanctioned my performances by their pre sence ; and at all the Annual Meetings hitherto held for the purpose of granting a renewal of !tribe and similar Licenses, have never expressed the slightest opinion, that such performances have exceeded the limits of their License the con trary, they have invariably caused an insertion to be made in every renewal, that the same species of performance was to he continued as bad been repre sented the preceding season.

The otelo-dramatizitig-and periorming Of 'Richard the Third at the Cobourg, tor the purpose of thsplayittg Ibe great talents of Mr. BOOTH, is it scents, Ore- offence that has thus suddenly dra ten down the hostility of the major Theatres. For the doting this I had good precedent. he present Lts, seeot Drnry-laneTheatre,at the rime he retried he Surrey 'fbeat I e, meld-dramatized both Richard the Third and Macbeth, as well as many of the pieces - the Royal Theatre;. Richard the Third was melte-dramatized expressly for the Coboorg, with. additional musical scenes, and an immense reduc tion of matter, by Mri, MONCHIEF, who is regu larly engaged at Cobourg Theatre, to adapt ail such pieres as may he produced there. , 1 have no wish to persist in availing myself -of. any ma terial in the slightest manner. brie uging to the Royal Theatres, nor should I have done sO in trie present legal instance. bad it not been 'with a v i ew to gratify the Public witli as complete a dis play of MrlinoTtes fine t,:lents in Richard as the ha tore of my license perthit ten .1 wilimglywOhdraw if they consider its performance an itOtry.to, them ; but when they modestly ask me, late on- Saturday night, to withdraw a new Piece announced for reprrseotation on the- succeeding Monday---a Piece ‘,riiteti expressly for my Theatre, and in the prodoction of which I have expended a suns aut O tio tioa to nearly fifteen hundred p,.unds, as in the case of the Horded and Curititii.• the splendid success o[ which has their efforts, I sholild be wanting in every proper feeling of d uty to myself, and should be guilty of a breach of faith to the public, it 1 did not man fully resist so .unreasonahle a demand. The Magistrates under whose licences • I act are em powered by the Act of Parliament to license scenic representations at their own discretion ; they have done so at their mature and repeat ed -discretion ; and I fed persuaded they will not impugn their own judgments, or depreciate t h e ir own authority, by complying with the unjust and selfish wishes of the Proprie;ms, who having, by every species of illegitirnate representa tion, rope-dancers,jogglers, elephants, monkeys, dogs, and horses, lowered the dignity of their own establishments, deem eveiy effort of the minor 'Theatres to eationali - ee their entertaintnents an offence to the Goddess of Folly, and resolving to prove trite votaries of their reigning Deity, de noiince the efforts of intellect as a crime, call upon the constituted authorities of the country to check the growth of improvement, and, while a esoming to be Patrons ,and Proprietors of the Mama, prove its bitterest enemies. I regret the liorits of a - letter will not permit we to venture on the wide field of decisive discussion this subject opens ; but my adversaries maybe assured I come folly armed to combat all hat the sophistry of their legal advisers ; foutided on the precedents of leis enlightened times, may furnish them with ; and that, assured by the strong hold of custom, theesanetion of a discerning public, and the au thority under which I act, I am resolved to dis pute with them every itch of what I conceive to be my just ground of LI a f u rore ,commn nt'cation I Will essay to show, that whatever dis teesses the Royal Theatres may have talleu into, have been rather owing t o their own mism lunge ment, than any influence of the-minor Theatres. I am, Sir, your very obedient humble Servant, 3. GLOSSOP, Proprietor of the Royal Cobourg Theatre.
