But there has of late years been introduced in the Public Journals.a mode cif reporting which is highly offensive, and ought to be discouraged. It seems to have been. the purpose of some of the Reporters to try What fun they could extract from the examinations .before the Magistrates, and rather to give Itztmorous tales than faithful ncrounts of what occurs . The vitiated taste of • the Public has. induced them to admire these Yvtive narrative4.l not considering the dan gerous consequences - Of a facetious air to criminciNhand rendering the culprits entertaining Petformers. We imire. often been surprised that the Magistrates have not positively interdicted Such reports. Such a. prohibition might be expected from them, consicietiiit‘g the grave and important °lca with which . they aili.intrusted. Fair and impartial reports are higfily beneficial to the Nuhr Ic, and such reports, therefore, ought `never to be suppressed.. •We w ill that suppose Report ers wire to employ themselves. i n giving accounts of 'the Sermons that are delivered in the. .several Churches of the Metropolis, and should embellish those accounts with some of those humorous sallies with which they heighten their narrations of proceedings before Ma t g.strates—sur e ly they would only excite dis lost in the public at - large ; but it should be • considered that character, .and even life, is often "noected in the case 'of examinations before Magistrates, and that many innocent people are nut only exposed to the mortification of up "Pearing in a„. public Court, but, whatever ' M il be t h e i ssue , h a v e , perhaps, by the levity of the Reporter, a ludicrous stigma ,attached to them through life, wherever (hey are known. It is full time, therefore, for Al a g.atrates to put an end to the offensive prac 11ite in question, and to render their Courts what te Ought to be, tribunals of decency, as well as itistice and impartiality. COMMERCE WITH SOUTH AMERICA. Number of ships wk - tit:6 .

It is supposed by an intelligent merchant, who kept this t i e ldtter, that the 60 vessels from Baltimore carried upwards of 41 thousand barrels of flour, Or more than went from the idler three ports together. Be further supposed, that the 44 R Late amount of flour shipped from the United States fo r south America, during that year, exceeded MO thousand bar -I.'ll.

DauttY-LANK.—After the performance of Simpson and Co., a new Piece was brought for ward under the title of The Enchanted Courser, or the Sultan of Curdistan. The following is a sketch'of the Fable : " Alninlek (Mr. NITALLAcK), the Sultan of Curdistan, a ma gician, who has ascended the throne by the murder of his brother, the late Sultan, feeling his power insecure, determines to sustain himself by the alliance of the Princess of Caeltemirc (Mrs. W. W£s•r.) Alnialek is bound to the evil spirit, but the condition of his aid -is, - that no violence shall be used for obtaining,the Princess ; he brings the enchanted courser, who has the power of flying through the air, as a purchase for her hand, . but is rejected. He finally carries her off by violence upon the Hying horse, and is pursued by . the Prince qf Persia (Mr. PEN LEY) to his fortress in the mountains of Curdistan, where he is slain." The subject of the Piece is taken from that admirable store-house of youthful delight, The 4rabian Nights' Entertainments ; but the Author, or Compiler, has not strictly adhered to the ori ginal, nor was it necessary, if the deviation could heighten tlw dramatic effect. It is, however, evident that on this occasion magnificent scenery was the chief object, and that the dialogue was in tended merely to connect the several exhibitions in such a outliner as to give scope to the performers, and some a ppearance of consistency to the story. In this respect the Manager has done his utmost to gratify the public, for a greater assemblage of splendid scenery we have never witnessed, and the whole, with the destruction of edifices, bat. ties, &c. &c., passed oil with surprising correct ness, considering the variety and complication of the movements. The acting also, but particu larly that of WALLacx, Hanceir, and Mrs. W. WEST, gave powerful support to the story, such as it is. There was a very numerous audience, who seemed to be liberally inclined to al low for the expellee which must have at tended the preparation of so varied and magnificent a spectacle, though there certainly were no strong claims to admiration on the score of novelty. The Flying Courser, from which so much was expected, manifested no supernatural powers, and if we were to attempt to trace his Pedigree, like the Newmarket He ralds, we should hardly, so far as Poets:/ is con cerned, find him allied to Pegasus. When Mr. WA (JACK came to announce the Piece for repeti tion, the mingled tumult of friends and opposers prevented him from being heard ; but as the noes did not predominate, it will probably be more successful when brought forward in a more coin pactiorm by the abridgement of processions, &c. 'she Musical Festival which took place in the Theatre at Edinburgh on Monday last was at tended by all the rank and fashion in that city and its vicinity. We have no room for particu lars to-day, but we shall give a full account to morrow. Sir GEORGE SMART was the Conductor. BRAIIASI, Miss STEPHENS, the DE BEGNIII, VAUGHAN, BIILLAMY, Miss GOO/MALL, Tan a Arr., &C. The whole went off with correctness and energy, and excited universal applause. Tom KING, the original Lord OglebN,in CoL MAN and GARRICK'S Comedy of The Clandestine Marriage, was the Manager of Drury-lane Thea tre for many years. KING'S losses at play obliged him to quit London, when he was succeeded in the management by. Mr. KEMBLE. Some time afterwards KING returned to the London Stage, but never to the management. This veteran actor died poor, at his house in Store-street, Bedford square. DODD, the Comedian, was an ardent collec tor of old plays and tracts relating to the Drama. After his death, his valuable Dramatic Library was sold by Leigh and Sotheby, in York-street, Covent.garden. GEORGE STEEVENI, openly, affected great friendship for Dodd, but he was jealous of his literary and theatrical acquisi tions. The writer of this paragraph was pre sent at EGERTON'S Auction-rooms, in Scotland yard, on the last day's sale of WATSON and REWS library, when the celebrated Hamlet was purchased by Mr. KEMBLE, and the Romeo and Juliet of 1599 was bought by IVIALoNr. On the same day the Duke of Itoxuu ROUE purchased the.splendid first edition of SRAKSPEAII E'll works. At the close of the sale, STEEVENS exclaimed to INTtcot. and MALONE, from Macbeth. " This is a day trifles our former kuowings." When the quarto's were coming on, STEETENS said to Donn, who was near him, " The hour of lattack approaches"—" Yes (replied the Come dian)--I think I'll take the road." Newcastle Theatre was let, on Saturday last, to Mr. Nicholson, father-in-law to Mr. Ray mond, of Leicester, at a rental of 3001. per annum. MR. FAUNTLEROY.—About seven o'clock yes. terday evening the London Grand Jury entered the New Court and presented five true bills of indictmept gai fist HENRY FAUNTLEROY, for forgery. It is now placed almost beyond a doubt that the trial will take place at ten o'clock to morrow morning, and that if any application should be made to the Court on the, part of the assignees to postpone it, such application will certainly prove unsuccessful. The defence of Mr. Faunt,leroy‘ will he conducted by Messrs. Gurney, Alley, Brodrick, and Phillips. It is understood he has been served with notice of the time — apporuted for his trial by the Bank soli citors. The man who played the flute, by some acci dent broke it, while in the orchestra of Covent-garden Theatre. Enwil.t; running into the Green-room, cried out---" Poor fel low, poor fellow !" " What's the matter, my dear EDWIN " cried Alm WI:1111. " Why, Madam," rejoined EDWIN,. " poor Mr. - has just split his wind-pipe. While Dr. FRANKLIN was at Paris during the war, he happened to mention at table that he had but little Madeira wine, upon which an Ame. rican guest sent him three dozen. A f ew days afterwards, this Gentleman was thrown into the Bastile, and confined there several weeks, without the least intimation of what he was accused. After some time, a bottle of wine was brought to him, and he was asked whe. ther he knew what wine it was, and was or dered to drink it. He complied, and answered that he believed it was some of his own Madeira. At length he was released, and then he discover ed thilt Franklin had been taken ill soon after he received the present, and the suspicious French emissaries imagined that this injured gentleman had been hired by the English to poison the Doctor.

' Is it the eye that beams with fire, . And glistens brighter fbr the tear; Whose glance can kindle young desire, Vet leave its victim to expire, Without one pitying look his wither'd hopes to cheer ? Is it the cheek, where dwells the smile, Enshrin'd within its roseate fane ; And play the tyrant for awhile Whose radiance serves but to beguile, And clothe in double gloom refusals wintry reign ? Is it the portal of the soul Whose op'ning leaves like rubies glow ; Where dwells, within the heart's controul The power that arbitrates the whole, Cheers with the beams of joy, or clouds with hopleless woe?

THE EAST LONDON WATER-WOEKS COMPANY V. THE Poons • -nATE OE THE PAILISH Or ST. MAEY, STuAT- FOltD, BOW. Mr. SCARLETT, who was retained specially in this•ease, in formed the Court that the parties had agreed to refer the matter to the judgment of Mr. Alderson, with a view to a permanent arrangement upon the subject. TWO other similar cases, in which the same company were appellants, were disposed of in like manner. -- ST. JAMES, WESTMINSTER, v. ST. LURE, CHELSEA. This case turned upon the question, whether the pau per, Elizabeth HOUMA, was a legitimate or an illegitimate child. It appeared that the child's father, whose name was Holland, had lived with her mother under the name of Campbell, but was at the time married to another'Woman.— Ile had a !mule for Mrs. Campbell, and passed -its:her hus band, but he was never married to her. After hsr death, he had her daughter educated at a boarding-school, as his legiti. mate child, and took her home to live with him uqtil she was ff years of age, when, in consequence of her disagr,eeing with Mrs. Holland, he quarrelled with her, and she was Oldlged to seek relief of the parish. This being proved by the father him self and another witness, the Court confirmed the Order. • BRIGHTON V. ST. PANCRAS. The question in this case was, wh et h er th e twcro.Youngeit of four children, belonging to a Mrs. Holding, were to be pre: sinned to ba the children of her husband, J. Hording, or not ; as, in ease they were, then, and not otherwise, they were enti tied to a settlement with the other two children and their mother at Brighton. 'lt was stated by Mrs. Holding, that Holding went to Ame rica about 12 years ago, since when she never saw him but once for live minutes about live years ago. Front that time to the present she has never learned what became of him, nor does she • know whether he is living or dead. For the few years last past, she lived with a man named John O'Hara, now dead, and passed in every respect as his wife. 11cr two younger children are 2i years, and 11 months old, and O'llara was their father. Mrs. Holding's son, anti two women who had lodged for a considerable time in her house, swore, that since before the bitth of these two children they never saw any . persoir'ltOnte near her as her husband but O'Hara. . It was contended that this was not sufficient proof in law of non-access on the part of the husband ; but The Cot; ire was of a different, opinion, and allmvedthe ap. peal subject, however, to.a ease. 3lost of the appeals having b ee n di s posed of at four o'clock, the CIIAIUMAN directed the remainder to stand oror until to. morrow. lIRENTFORD-BRTME. • When the Court Was about to call on some licensing pet', tions, Mr. 11111.1. s rose, and called ,the attention of his broth e r .Magistrates to a matter of some importance. fly the terms.of the contract for building lirentfolci:bridge, it was agreed to sup ply. the best granite from Aberdeen ' • instead of .which, that which had been supplied was admitted to be of a very inferior description. Having been one of the ftwmer Committee, he felt he' owed it as a duty to the public to bring this matter under their notice, and not allow the county to be imposed upon. After a few observations from one or two other Magistrate', they agreed unanimously to re-appoint the foimer Committee, and refer the matter to them to report upon.

Mr. ADOLPHUS applied for a licence on behalf of Mr. Ham mond, for a new theatre at Hackney, for' musical entertain ments, ballets, and burlettas. The petition was signed by some of the churchwardens, overseers, and inhabitants of the parish ; but as it had not been signed by the minister, nor sub mitted to the select vestry for their approbation,, the Court suggested the expediency of withdrawing the petition ; which was accordingly done for the present.
