FEMALE DUELLING.—.An American Paper, hue ly received, contains the following atticle—" We understand, that last week a point of honour was decided between two Ladies, near. the South Ca rolina line. The details of this grand affair have not yet reached town. It is said that the cause at quarrel was the usual one in such cases, viz. Lore. The Object of the rival affections of these fair champions was prese n t on the field, as the'nintniii arbiter in the dreadful combat. lie had the grief of beholding one of the suitors for his favour fall before his eyes. She was wounded ; bin, we un derstand, not mortally. The et hole business was man.teed with 'all the inflexibility and decnrhin Lsually practised on such ,occasions. The con queror was to be immediately married to the in nocent second, conformably to the previous condi tions of the duel."

R.E. To THE EDITOR. "Stit,.."-Mr.qtap' has complained 'of a paragraph which stat, s he was in the Boxes of Covent-Gar den Theatte, ou one of the nights of riot, and he is pleased-to attribute the offensive article to the Manager'of Covent-Garden. If by the Manager, he means the humble individual who signs this, 1 be g to assure bun he is in error ; and I 11111 sorry he who knows better should make no distinctiotrs between the Ntmager and others who might have made the'communication. Mr. by his own *hewing, came into the Boxes, with an intent to address the audience, if nn opportunity had offered—not of lies own free-will, but sent by tile Sub-Commillee of Drury-Lane. This disagreeable employment !hould have taught hint that it is possible an acting Manager may be obliged to do what he knows is not right. So that even it he had thought I did write the article in question, fellow• feeling should have restrained him from bringing me before the public in the capacity of Macager. Once for all 1 disclaim it ; as Ido imputhig.to Mr. Hay any thing 'improper or un gentlemanly ; so that I sincerely wish the Sub- Committee may still confide to . him the task of addressing• the midi( Nee at Covent-Garden Thea tre (it they think it decorous to continue this innovation), and that the Prompter,' the Under Music Copier, and other subordinstes, may no longer be permitted to disturb their Rival's house;' for certainly they have manifested, that they do not know it, well 'how to eonthaet thenvelves.' The town twist tinrely think it indecent, and highly digirespeetinl to them, for one Theatre to semi persons into the other to in erfere. 1 be lieve -no well commiasion would ever be affered to me by the Propt ietors to Covent-Garden ; but I ion. free to eonfut4-, if such cotild be 'attempted, I would resist the outntl•ite at all hazards—for it I appeaktl ih the !owlet boxes. of Drury-Lane, ior the pisrpose of addressing or-disturbing the au dience, I should expect what I should he con vinced 1 deserved—to be titroed out with con tempt am„ Sir, your humble servant, • JOHN FAWCErn Theatre Royal, Covent-Garden, Monday, March 3, 1317. • LORD ESSEX. AND AIR. HARRIS. Di tit y-lane Theatre, .March 3, 1817. The Sub-Committee . of Drury-lane Theatre, ac cording to their resolution, expressed in their last statement to the public, have hitherto refrained from observing on the many personal attacks which-- have been made upon •themindividttally or c o ll ec tively ; but in justice to a Noble Colleague, upon whom an mitounded attack lists been made, upon the authority of Mr. Harris, senior, in sever rat papers of to-day, they tech themselves torcea to publish the statement inside to them by that N9l.llst V n ersoage Slanli-ope-strert, narele tsl7. Stn,—HaVing seen a letter from Mr. Harris, in the News pipers this day, in which I am personallyand eery improperty Minded to, I take the liberty of inclosing yon a private letter, which I received front Mr. Harris on Saturday, too tate to answer by return,of post, in which he alludes to my visit to him "as avoteettly for the purpose of establishing an ho nourable and friendly understanding between the two Thea tres," for the purpose of laying it before the other Member` of the Sub-Committee, to whom aluno . .1 now consider any explanation is due. They will take such steps as they may deem expedient, but for myself, I never will suffer the intemperate or improper comities - of any inilividnal to draw me into almblic contro. versynpon matters solely private. I beg leave to assure the Gentlemen of the Sub-Committee that my visit to Mr. Harris Was '' not upon any theatrical subject ohatsoeVer;" it was purely an tceidental and friendly attention in my ride from Dropmare to Cashiabitry. I ham: Out the slightest rircullection of any conversation' having taken place upon the subject of Mr. T. Cooke's en gagement; hat fIS Mr. Harris states that some conversation did ensue relating to the Theatre, I min readyto4dmit it with this reservation, that it could only he a general expression, that 1 tnn.er would sanctioq .any unfair proceeding between the two Theatres. I must also add, that until I received Mr. Harris's letter on Saturday last, C never was aware of any transaction rela tive to Mr. T. Cooke, as connected with Covent-garden Theatre. I am, Sir, your obedient Servant, ESSEX. C. W. WARD. Eqq../Sreretary to the Coutu.ittre - of Druty-lonv Thcatre. In addition-to this statement, the Sub•C'ommittee think it only necessary to remark, that whAterer were the transac tions relatinz to the engagement of . Nlr. T. Co9ke, they were conduoted by the. Hon. Douglas Kinnaird, and thesmly act of tbefjoinutittee, as a body, on that occasion, was ing the engage•meu►t,.Wben that Gentleman tepotted to them that be had concluded it. i t is stated, that Mr. 13onth's terms at the c o vent.Gartien Theatre are precisely the same as therwere to have been at Drury-La:Lc, vjzt ,N iue,-anil ter' pounds per week tor three *emus. lAI PERIAL PARLIAMENT.

Their Lordships' judge ment upon the former cause was indefinitely post potted ; and upon the latter till Wednesday. Two . private Bills were brought up from the Commons by Mr. Dndale and others, and read the :first time:, The Annual Acconnts from the East India Dock Company were preiented by Mr. Farrell, and laid_ upon the table. The Earl of LAUDBRDALE presented a Petition trom the Borough of Brechin; in the connty of torlar, in Scotland ; and one or two other do cuments of a similar description, but the purport of which we could not distinctly collect below the bar. HABEAS COIMIS ACT StISPF,tikON BILL. Lord HoI.LAND, after briefly adverting, to the Amendments made by the Counnous to thist and aftimadvetting oo the great uncontrolled power•the measure tended to vest in his. Majesty's Government over the liberties of their fellow sub jects, expressed hiS, wa s h to be explicitly lama-l ed, either ,by the Noble and ,Lvarned Lord on ehb Woolsack, or , wine other Learned Lora, how the law would stand with respect to the well-known right of the,sobject to petition either his Sove reign or the Legislature : that is, whether those persons who Were detained in custody under the Hill, should it pass, were to be debarred frOni their rights of addt essing, in the humble form of Petitioo, either their Sovereign or the Legislatare Of their country. This Was what he thoucht. the 1-loose and the country had a right to be inforne-' ed of; and, as to the Noble and Lent ed Lord on the kAloolsack, he was sure of his rendine,s to give every information in his power en u inject of the kind. The Loan CtrAtiCP.LLOR %visited the Noble Lord to be more explicit as to his eplestion. Lord 110t.Lattp stated that his question Was, whether the, persons detained limier the Act hail not a right to petiiion, or whether they were to be &bat red from the exeteise of that right ?

The Lag!)
