POLICE. FRAUD UPON THEATRES. . _ TIOW:STREET.—Io the course of laSt :season vari, ous impositions, were pradised upon several of the performers . belonging to Drury-lane: and Covent . - Garden Theatres; for the purpose of .proc:fring ad- . mission: Our. Readers may : recoiled, person assuming the name:of - folvision was advertised.in the Papers, who - had frequently, under' pretence•of being a literary -. charaCter, and belonging to a, Alornin.gPaper, obtained possession of ,MisS•Dnn can's and Miss Mellon'stinfluenee. - These practices, however, have' 'beets. carried this season to: .a s;ill greater excess, and if not 'put a timAy . step to :by the attive' interference of the 'Magistrates; must end in very Considerable - loss to the perfortners in general,' vs we see exemplified in the fOllowing 'cirCutristance': —Yesterday ,It'qzinia Jenkins :and her sister, two girls, about twenty years of i&e, with an elderly woman, were brought 'before the 'Sitting Magistrate, •ID • charged with obtaining' benefit tickets tuider"false. pretences. Mr. Kernble, Mr. and Mrs. H.Siddcins, Mr. Brunton, -Mr. Hill', MisSDe . Camp's sister, and several other Performers, some of 'whom :had been. defrauded in thiS way; attended the investigation, It appeared, that on the loth inst. •a .note was brought by the PriSoner, Jernima; to MissDe Ca mp's lodgings, purporting to be Mrs. H:Siddons's corn= plimetv.s to Miss .De CarnP, requeqing.her to send, per the bearer, six box tickets. 'The yoringeiMiss De Camp went down stairs to - the Prisoner, .and having interrogated. her, was satisfied with her an swers, and delivered the tickets - accordingly ; she said Mrs. H. Siddons was hot well,. from the fall, she had got in-performing Sigisinunda a' night. or two before ; and when asked, if she - h - ad had:advice, or applied any remedy ? the Priioner answered, it was but a trifling . hurt, and would be soon' well again-, as Mr. Siddons had rubbedit with opodeldoc, or sothething ei that nature. • Mrs. H. Sidclons declared . her total ignorance of the. person of the Pris Oner, or of the transaaion it self, never:having authorized arty prie to do`so. . Mr. Brunton said, a similar application had been made to his' sister, also in the name of Mrs. H. Sid dens, for eight box -tickets . ), he answered the Priso ter Jemima, who brought the note, and suspe&ing soine'iMposition, refused to give the tickets. • It was further stated, that similar applications had been made to Mr. Hill, Airs. Martyr, and some others; in consequence of which an inquiry was set nn toot, and the Prisoners were apprehended. When called upon for their defence,. JeMirna Jenkins was the spokeswoman : she 'siiid,ishe was the daughter of a man who. vas formerly fAreibii to a cloth-shop in the Strand:but hart. het lived with, or seen her, father for some time. : She 64.1 her sister now resided at Westminster, acid worked for army accoutrement-makers ; that she had known the other Prisoner at a Mrs. Johnston's,' in the neighbourhood of the Theatres, through whom they used to get tickets for the play ; 'and being on that 'light in some difficulties, 'she thought of - going to the play, to drive away melancholy. Having, therefore, procured the tickets, She took the other . two POseuers and another 'girl- along with her to the pit. The elderly-woman confessed She had once, under false pretences, obtained possession of Mrs. Martyr's bones, but itver any benefit tickets; She 'further ad mitted having gone to the Play with the other Pri soners on the night in question,:but Wholly 'denied any knowledge of the manner in which the tickets were obtained. . _ . • - Jemima "Jenkins was then fully committed •to Newgate for trial, and as there was no.dired charge. against the other .two, 'they were. dismissed, after receiving a Viholesotne reprimand, and advice from , the Presiding.l 4 .yragistrate: The Office" was crowded with performers belong ing to 'both Much sport was produced at the ex ence of Mr. Kemble, who got into the Bar by mistake; and remained there during the eN.ami matioti. IIATTCN-GARnEN.---Yesterday four delicate fe inales were brOught before the Sitting Magistrate, by a reSpeaable:shoentaker in the neighbOurhood, on a 'charge of raising a riot in his house, and breaking ueveral paneS of glass in his shop-windows. It ap peared, that the Prisoners had each of them purchased a pair Of shpes on Monday at his . shop, for the purpose of .sp - Orting them at Greenwich. One pair tf the. shoe' ,happened to be too tight .for the Wearer,. and to make them ,easier; she cut the in side soles Chit of theth. This, however, was found not to have the• desired effect, and she yesterday, with her eomputiOns, returned to the shop, and in sisted on having the Money - back 'again. The shoe maker, of course; refUSed to comply with her request, and was finally obliged to send for a constable, and take her •and her companions before the MagiStrate, bUt net until they had broken several panes of glass. The M:igistrite required that they shtr.ld make compensation for the damage.; but the Prisoners, all .pleaded warmly at the same time, were de-, sirous Of proving to the Magistrate, that the shoes were too small, and refused to pay for the broken windows, its tOnsequence of which, they were all c :mnlitted. Iresteiday morning, Sarah Arthur,. an - elderly man,' emplo.etlby the Board of Works, was. seized 'with sua a violent effusion of blood. froM her 'right leg, that she a6tually bled to death. The Coroner's Jury, on a view of the, body, returned.a verdia— Died ty the vifitation (If god. .

COURT OF KING'S BENCH. (IRELAND.) Trial at Ni.Fi Prius,lefore . theilwi. JusliceOsizioxNE antl'a respeau - 41e Ar.y. KIRKIPATRICK-V. WELDE. This appeared to hat;re been a matter of a nature Calculdted to arrest the attention, of . the Manufac turers of this Country, in. .a competition -of. skill with those of England; also, to : involve A right 'goUnded on the Act of Union, respeding-,Duties on certain classes of the Cotton and Woollen Manu factures. The Defendant, Mr..Welde, Itas well-known oc cupations at the Custom-house, as Deputy Customer and Deputy Coilea& of the Port Of Dublin. The Plaintiff, an eminent Wholesale Woollen Merchant, did import w on the 14th of November, 1805, a quan tity of goods in . his line, denominated swansdown, toilinets, and Windsor cords. The two former were a compositiOn of 'Cotton and wool, and the. latter al ledged to be so, though an invention since .the. Union, and consequently ,by the Ad of Union, - as set forth in the Plaintiff's declaration, entitled to free titry, which the Defendant refused, claiming A 'duty of .1 0 per cent. ad valorem on all these ,ar ticlct, though the Act was given -up on the Regnla-. tions 'entered into at the period of the Union. Pre - - vious to the Union it was set forth, that toilinets being a 'mixed matter, did pay the established duty of 10 per cent. : as to Windsor cordohe Plaintiff stated, that it was merely an old species of tnanufac , t.ure, under a new name, and was critically no more . ' than what cordelains were before, -and became Con sequently exempt from the duty, and unequivocally entitled to free entry The Defendant, however, would not admit them, Several Witnesses were adduced, and particularly a Yorkshire lad, who pro fessed himself a Cloth-dresser. He merely proved, that he cut off patterns 'for sdveral places; which were produced'; these patterns he identified, but could not - ascertain whether they were mixed goods or not._ He never. heard. of the Union between, Great Britain and Ireland : he could not as - certain Whether the imPortation'of English goods wooly be injurious to the Irish Manufacture, though of eqt:al excellence, or' nott. On being asked whether he knew there were puddings in Yorkshire, or the con trary I He licked his_ lipS,. grinned, and answered in the affirmative:-`Witnesses were auduced to prove the practice of paying unv for goons sicniiar to those alluded to. Mr. Sheriff Blacker was examined as to, the ar ticles of •swinisdOwn and toilinets, which he had often imported previous to the Union—Windsor cord he had not : he believed that the duties on the two former articles were of vast importance to the Revenue, as they were in great demand in this Country. lie would not think it _politic to sup press the / importation of British goods inutile diately. Mr. GRADY, in the defence, expatiated on the testimony of a Mr. Weatherall, who said,- that ex a6ling, the duty of 10 per cent. faVoured the manu - faecurers of- this Co.untry considerably ; as, by ad- . Mitting the articles dUty free, the Country would be inundated with British goods. The Learned JUDG,E, in his charge, informed the Jury, that they had nothing to do with the policy. of the Legislature, as to the enacting of statutes or accommodations at the Union--their obje& was to-ascertain whether or not any stratagem had been used .to evade the existing duties, and-- find' 'aci cordinglj. • • The Jury retired, and, after some time, found a Verdi& for the Plaintiff. DARING ROBBERY.—Last Wednesday night, about. a quarter past ten, the long-coach which conveys nass‘mgers from the Mail-coach -Office, Dawson street, Dublin, to, the Packets, at the Pigeon House, was stopped by ten or more persons, armed with . .blunderbusses, pistols, and swords, at the other side of the Canal Bridge, near a lime kiln at the Low Ground, .who robbed all the passengers, about seven 'or eight. The villains obliged the passengers to come frum the carriage, and rifled them as they came out, commanding them to turn their faces to a wall that was near, immediately after plundering them;that they should not have, an opportunity of observing their persons. Lord Cahir and Mr. Geo. Latouche were two of the passengers. From his Lordship they took about 4001. and, it is said, 70 guineas , from Mr. Latouche. They robbed. the other passengers of money, and also carried off some light paCkages from them.. A small box, which contained some of their articles, was found next du at the Comm Ons of Kilmainham, to which pla i ce it Is supposed they retired after the robbery, .by go ing up the Circular Road, to divide the_ spoil. • LONDON : Vrintert by RICHARD HARRIS, of No. 4, Martlett-court, Bow-street ; and At the SUN•OFFICE, No. 11. ) , Strand a where Advertis,ments Orders fi Fioin the LONDONGAZETTE, May 27, 1806. . . , . -oJfice,,Alay 2 7 , 1806. , 61st Regiment'Of.Foo:, Major kredarick Barlow ,to be Lieu tenAnt,Colotiel, by purchase, vice Rudsdell, who retires.

When disorders, of the 'most malignant nature have either from hereditary causes, the luxury - or dissipation .of the age, crept as it were involuntarilyr. into our frame, it is of the utmost importance to those affliaed with them to _knew where to meet with a permanent and radical Cure.
