THE THEATRE. 1/4,OVEWNG A RDEII.—MiSS BAKEWELL, a Lady well known in polite circles, and whose connexions, we understand, are highly respectable, last night made her first appearance at this Theatre in the character of Mrs. Haller. On her entrance she was so much overcome by her fears that it was s ome time before she could collect firmness 811 inCieht to face the audience, and then her . ° ° ice Wa s ren d ere d so tremulous and feeble that i t t w as impossible to hea r w h a t s h e uttere d . 4 'we'ver, when she was sufficiently recovered i° proCeed in her part, it was obvious that hewvoice was p l eas i ng i n tone, though hardly her enou g h f or so l arge a Th eatre. As r seif,possession increased, it was evident rain her deportment that she had been used to e.legant society, and that she had a just concep tion of the part which she had 'assumed.

Indeed, we should not be sur- Pris ed to see her very successful in genteel ;ornedy. The terrors that oppressed her at fi rst seemed to linger through her whole P‘e.rformance, but it was, notwithstanding, cre ttlitahle to her judgment, as well as to her :risibility.

The connexion of the gorget, gauntlets, tassel, brasses, cuipcs, cuirasse, and r leg armour, is accomplished in the most finished style, and al lows the free use of the limbs to the wearer.. The casque and beaver are unique and elegant, though we are of opinion that a plume similar to that worn at the Coronation would render the tout-ensemble more complete. It is both light and elegant. The ability shewn by the Cyclops employed proves that the art, so far from being lost in England, is now in the highest state of perfection, aA we might venture to challenge a com parison with the immortal suit presented by Thetis to her in dignant son, at the siege of Troy.

Council was held yesterday, to consider the pi l opriety of present ing- an Address of Congratuiatibir to his'Alajest'y upon his safearrival in these realms ,after his Majesty's visit to the Continent.. This being the first Court held since the'Lottn iNtAyoft's accession to the Cis'ic Chair, 'his Lord ship .read an Address to the Court,' in which he assured the Court, that it was .his ardent wish in all their future discussions, that the utmost liberty of sentiment might be exercised consisteut.with the established rules which formed the real dig nity of the Court. In . his humble endeavours to perpetuate the character of that Court,, as the first in. the. M a gistracy of the. kingdom and the leader and example of all others.; he should despair of success if he could not . rely .on the assistance of many gentlemen whom he had the pleasure of seeing before him, who had attained t knowledge of the law,, , dn& constitution of that great 'metropolis. lie" looked fOrward with confidence to their advice and assistance, as well as to the candour of the - Court at large, and he trusted he should not look ADDRESS of CONCIRATULATION td . IighIAJESTY. 01.in1Am, in rising to move•ilie Resolu tion which he was about to 'submit to the Court, said, if he ccultranticipate any thing in the shape of an objection to 'as motion, he should. deeply regret that it had mil been placed in better hands ; but when he • considered that the Court - was ''only . called iipart to :.offer a marl . of personal' respect to the Hio-vereign- of the country, ,he took it for granted that thoSe who differed InoSt with his Majesty's Government Would be the:most ready to take ..this opportu nity of expressing. their concurrence., ,Though he would .neveisaerifrCe the right of impugning the measur e s o f hi s Majesty's Government when ever they dese r v e d t o b e impugned, he dePre- rated any attempt to mix up the personal . charac- of the Sovereign with the character and co duct of his Ministers. He was quite sure that these sentiments would be reciprocated by every gentleman who beard him", because it was one of the fundamental principles of the Constitution 'iat the King could do no wrorig, and any at- tempt thererore to mix up the personal character of the Sovereign with the conduct of his Govern ment, must be a direct violation of that principle. precedents were wanting in support of the measure which he was about to propose, he was persuaded that the Court would not hesitate to establish a precedent on this occasion for carry ig up an Address of Congratulation to the krone, when, after a long, erduOus, and per lons journey, our gracious Sovereign had retur ed to the bosom of his country in a state of healt__ peace, and safety. There was no want of pre. cedents, however, to sanction this proceeding, for in the reign of George the . First, before the Court of Common Council interfered so much with political matters as it had since done, the, Court of Aldermen, nevertheless, went up with an Address of Congratulation to the Sove reign, on his re t urn from his foreign4ominions ; and in the reign of George the Second,.the Lord Mayor, Aldermen, -and CoMmOn Council pre= seated a similar Address to the King on his re turn from Hanover. Ile apologised for taking up SQ muck of the time of the Court,,but, before. he sat down, be could not : help expressing.amish that there had been but one Address owthe pre sent-occasion, and that the Court of Aldermen had not separated themselves from the great body of the Corporation on a question, with regard to which there could not possibly be any difference of opinion. He feared that by this proceeding a feeling might be created abroad, that the Court of Common Council were not prepared to go the whole length with the Court of Aldermen in their expressions of loyalty and 'attachment to the Sovereign. He was perfectly ready to ac knowledge the right of_ the Court of Aldermen to carry up separate Addresses to the. Throne, on great political questions, in which they might differ from•the Common Council, but upon' the present occasion it was impossible that there could be two opinions. Ile mentioned this merely as a matter of personal regret and sorrow, not doubting that the Court of Aldermen had their reasons for the proceeding which they had thought fit to adopt, and that their judgment was much better than his own. It was unnecessary for . hirn to insist on the loyalty which characterised the whole Corporation and City of London ; and if any thing were wanting to prove it, he .need only refer to what passed on the LordAlayor's Day, when it must have been obvious to every one of the Illustrious Honse then present, and even to his Majesty's Ministers themselves, that his - Majesty possessed not in his dominions, men • more determined ta- uphold his sacred person, and to maintain the true honour and dignity nf the Crown, than the Citizens of Londrm. The worthy Membei. concluded by moving, that the Court- present an . Address of Con Era t u l a tiO rt to his ‘. Majesty, on his 'safe arrival in these Realms, after his visit to the Continent ' Mr. Ex-Sheriff .\‘ ILLIAMS, iu seconding the Resolution of his Worthy Friend, observed, that he was .not in- the hhhit of making long speech e s, for his experience.in that Court had - thtivineed hith that theY had, a tendency rather to bewilder than enlighten the'Gentlemen who heard them. He assured the Conk; that if he had received any mark of , -,honour or approbation:fromhi s - S'ia vereign, it was not upon.thataccount that herose. on the - present occasion ; for no man who knew him coUld.suppose that any pecuniary advantage or public honour could tempt him to barter away his political principles. He was anxious that this Corporation should be the first public body in the kingdom to congratulate his Majesty on his return from a hazardons.'and fatiguing journey ; and as, his Majesty had.'been received with the most heartfelt expressions of attachment •both in the sister kingdom and in . his Hanoverian dominions, he trusted that this Corporation would not be behind any part,of the kingdom, in con'. veyiiig to the foot, of the Throne the assuran ce s of their true, sound, and constitutional loyalty, reserving to themselves, as Britons ought always to reserve, the right of freely examining the con duct, and scrutinisin g the principles of hi s Ma jesty's Government. The King was the first and highest branch of the 'Constitution and while he hoped, on the one hand, that the people would never be wanting in the loyalty and attachmeni which were due to MS sacred person, he trusted, oil the other, that the' King would never forge) that his best safeguard Was in the hearts,.and af• fections of a free and'happy people. Mr. FA YELL trusted that whatever difference of political opinions might exist in that Court, it would always maintain its character for. true loyalty and respect to the person of the Sovereign, ' accompanied at the same ,time with a Constitu tional vigil ance and .jealeusy with regard to the measures of Administration. He hoped they would always be, alive, and feelingly alive, to every great question in which the interests of the country were concerned,, and especially to all questions which involved;rtheir own character • and honour. If th e Resolution could be supposed in any degree to commit that Court to an appro bation of the. conduct of his MajestY's Ministers, he should have. - felt it • necessary to make some observations ; for - though he did not wish to charge the .Government with , having offered an intentional slight to the Corporation of London, yet circumstances had recently occurred which gave some cOlourfOr suppOsing that they had been treat: ed With disrespect. lie trusted the RepresentatiVes of that great city would institute such an inquiry into the circ,urirstancesto tivhich he'alfuded, as would ultimately rescue even the Ministers of the CroWn themselves from such a . suspicion.L- As to what had fallen from the Worthy. Member with regard to the proieedings at the Lord Mayor's dinner, he could .not help observing, that .the Corporation of _London evinced as'sound loyalty and attachment to the _person of the So vereign, when Earl Grey Visited them, as in the presence of the Marquess of LondOnderry, though in saying this he meant nothing invidious to that Noble Marquess, who was his fellow-citizen of Londonderry. Mr. DA vi ES expressed his warmest concurrence in the sentiments which had fallen from the Mover arid Seconder of the Resolution. Mr. PATTEN said, it certainly was not his in tention to offer any objection to the motion ; at the same time he felt it his duty to observe, that the Court would better shew its loyalty to the Sovereign, by voting an Address of Condolence to his Majesty on the late unfortunate events.— (Cries of " Question.")lle agreed in the ob ject of the Resolution, namely, that of assuring his Majesty of their loyalty, but he differed as to the mode of evincing it, and he maintained that the Address ought rather to be one of Con dolence than Congratulation. The question being loudly called for, was then put, and the Resolu tion was carried unanimously. Mr. OLDIIAM then moved that a Committee, consisting of all , the Aldermen present, and one Member from each Ward,. be appointed to pre pare the Address. The Resolution was agreed to, and the Com mittee being appointed, retired to prepare the Address.—The CoMmittee having agreed to the Address, strangers were ordered to withdraw, and it was understood the Address submitted to the Court was carried rem. con. 'THANKS TO THE LATE LORD MAYOR. Mr. Deputy WI:701)EL, after some prefatory observations in praise of rhelate Lord Mayor, moved a Vote of Thanks for his public conduct during his Mayoralty. • Mr. FAVELL said, he felt great pleasure in seconding the motion. He considered it an honour to the Ward to which he belonged, that it gave to the City of London a Chief Magistrate who so well supported the dignity of the Situation, arid the ho nourand privileges of the City. He heartily concurred in every word of the Address. The late Lord Mayor was called to the discharge of hiS important duties in times of no small difficulty, and maintained the dignity of his station by exhibiting upon all occasions mildness without weakness, and firmness wittioutob stinacy. lie proved to - demonstration that a constable's staff was not only the most constitutional, but the most effectual Means of preserving the peace of the City. Mr. OLDHAM hoped this Address would be carried unani mously, and that the Gentlemen opposite would not by their si lence give any intimation that they dissented from it. - Mr. ti.•1)Exoll was sorry that any such remark had fallen from the Hon. Gentleman opposite. For his part, he could see no -sign of hostility to the Address. For he considered the late Lord Mayor entitled to their thanks, for the great attention he had paid to his'imblic duties, which he discharged in the most huMane and proper manner. Mr. T. N.. Wis4.l AMs supported the Address, •and spoke of the late Lord Mayor irilerms of the highest approbation. The Address was unanimously carried. The usual purse of fifty.guineas, with - the thanks of the Court, were then vetcci to the late Lord Mayor's - • • SPECIAL JURORS. • Mr. Alderman WAIT umax said, he merely rose to,mention a circurnstanee to the Court, which appeared to him of great importance. It was not his intention to make it the subject oea motion. A report had.bean macle.to the Court souse years back, respecting the mode in which a liSt of Special Jurors was formed. It appeared that Special Jurors 'were placed on the list by the Sheriff, the Solicitors, or the Deputy Sheriff; • /t wseisthen de. 'dared to be the duty of the Members of the Common 'Council to make a return-for their respective Wards of such persons as they judged fit to sit as Special Jurors, and a n. , SolutiOrl to that eirect was agre , d upon lately, Ile did not know:whether such returns were made now from all the Wards, tnithe considered it a great dereliction of -duty not to haVe matte die . returns up to ritl Michaelmas day last. Until they were made, the Seceary and Sheriff could not place the names on the list, ; so that the old - list was still continued.: Independence and intelligetfce he consi dered the proper qualifications.for Spe'cial juror. The Corn-' mon Council should take care that in the different Wards, the person's rcnirned were such as earned on that fair proportion,of bUsineSs from which the requisite degree of intelligence and in dependence might .naturally be expected... ; -Ile hoped no time would be lost in making out the returns, and delivering them ' to the proper officer. After a desultory conversation, in-which the propositiOn of the Alderman' was supported, and its expediency avowed, the Court' occupied itself at some length in the consideration cf Report froni the General Purposes Conlin ttee, and recemniended the approptiation of some pr, raises in. Ahternsanbury as a tens- . `porary Court of RcqaeSts; which was finally agreed to.— Adjourned. - - - CORO*ta's INQuEs.r.—An Inquisition was held yesterday before Mr: ST I Ri.i NO, the barrister, son of the Coroner for Middlesex, tit the Plough, Kensall-green, a short distance. from" Paddington ; on the body of Martha Snail-Ars, the daughter of llr. Saunders, of that place, whose death was occasioned by taking a quantity of fly powder, in mistake, as it supposed, for moist sugar. It .appeared from the testimony of a Gentleman of - the foculty, that' he was sent for to attend the deceased, who- he wax intinmed had taken: poison. Ile went imme diately, and found the little sufferer, a very - interesting child, .labouring under the •,most severe indisposition. The effects of Hisonons ingredients had operated yery,powerfilly upon the stomach, the interior coat of which, and also the bowels, were .very, much inflamed; antidotes, Viersi administered, but the poison was so,rapid: in its effects,. • that'all , attempts to counter act it prove& ineffectual. The mother, of. the- deceased child stated, that • &tiring a temporary absence from the parlour on. , 'Tuesday,. the deceased got upon athair; and reaChett from - a cupboard a paper containing a quantity powttEir;. which had been purchased at - a druggist's for the purpose of making into a lotion to poison th e flies.
