Fens.--This morning Consols opened at 8142 for "'honey, and 81-2 for the Account, with numerous buyers at these prices. This day is the last for receiving money at the Exchequer to Make up the amount of the Dividends, which commence paying on the - 10th inst., and usually at this time a -great scarcity of money is observ- abl e , but the reverse is the-case at present, there being scarcely ever known so great a glut of Cash, as, is poiv the ThcCommissioners of th e Sinking Fund have been served all the week by the Jobber', which is a proof of the scarcity vt S'ock ; next fiktarter they commence purchasing 120.0001. S:ock every d a y ; the Monied men con sequently anticipate a further rise. The Public must, no doubt, be tired and dis gusted with the indecent proceedings of the BLACK DwARF and his rabble Myrmidons every day at Guildhall. We lament that the curiosity of our Readers should oblige us to give daily re ports of those proceedings, which are really a dis grace to the channels of the public Press, that ()tight never to be polluted by the sophistical de- • clamations of seditious Orators, oe to record the frantic howlings' of their senseless followers. The attack upon so respectable a character as Mr. Alderman CHRISTOPHER SMITH, seems to have deterred even the seditious Orators from proceed ng in their virulence against that Gentleman, and therefore, yesterday, HmHztes directed his rancour against Mr. Alderman ATKINS. We congratulate the latter on having escaped from the panegyric of such folly and ignorance. it might almost be supposed that this HITCHINS had some modesty from one circumstance that oc curred yesterday. Mr. Prmurs, the celebrated Irish Barrister, happened to be on the Hustings, end Hrrcntsts, tsishing for a lesson of eloquence, yeas anxious that that Gentleman should deliver his sentiments, which not being a Liveryman he could not be permitted to do, and which, it ap pears, tkat he bad no inclination to do. The LLACK Dwane maintained a prudent silence on the occasion, lest he might have been eclipsed by an Orator mote enlightened than• himself. It is a pity, however, if it were only for the sake of EITaHINS, that the learned gentleman could trot he allowed to speak, for otherwise the Hall might have derived a little relief from. vulgar clamour., lay oratory which, though perhaps soniewhat luxuriant and exuberant, wonld \ certainly have given IlitcHlNs some notion of grammar and gen lletnanly manners. 'ire are disappointed in what The British Press has said Ibis day in answer to Inc Sok of yester day. Tke Press demanded arguments from us nu the subject of the proposed Commutation of the Window Tot in Ireland, and we referred it to Hie letter of MT. HAOTTUnIiNE, ft) Ita•OWn col►itilnS, anti to the satisfactory rea!onint.l; of Th'e (Dublin) , • COrre.i p - oncleni, fUr . arittintitt . s, eunceivink it t►nine cessary to obtrude any of our ovrn,tiinat a subject of a local descrip4ion, ot) which a local judg ment trouhl, 'c'ourse, be better able to decide. The Press, h',►rever, with less rhat)liness anti caudoUr than might be exOected from its usual conduct; attempts to escape from the subject; and accuses us of having endeaoured to drao: anin vidi9uf distinction between the . advocates and op posers of the Proposition. We certainly con- • . , sitter the former its wise and loyal, Still hope that , • . the opponents will heroine so, on reflecting upon the real character and tendency of the propo s ed measure. That many of the opponents are good subject though mistaken, we have no doubt, but that some of them are men Who wish to fish in troubled waters may readily be supposed, as troubled water is the favourite elemetit of such fOlks. As among the noisy multitude who every day appear in Guildhall, there may be many misled by the sophistry, or inflamed by the harangues, of FACTION, while most of th em are, perhaps, a seditious rabble, who are either hired to create a disturbance, or find a sufficient reward in the opportunity of in sulting their superiors, and promoting every thing that may lead to the violation of order and the propagation of nischiet ; for we never can sup pose that--44te - Jurbulent troops, headed by the Black Dwarf, are wise and honest Liverymen, who feel for the honour of the City, and are at tached to the welfare of the Country.

H E AT R ES. COVRNT..GARDEN.-IWe Stratagem was followed, last night, by the new nelo-brame ,of The Youthful Days of Frederick the Great, of ,which we must reheat our favourable opinion,, and re commend to the Public as one of the most inteT resting, and well represented, works of the kind that we ever attended, to say nothing of its pleasing music arid its splendid scenery. The au dience, which filled the Theatre, folly confirmed our opinion, by abundant applause through the whole of the performance.' ENGLISH OPERA.—After a very successful sea son, _well merited on the part of the Proprietor, Mr. ARNOLD, and the Stage Minager, Mr. BART LEY, the Tbeatre closed last night. Mr. BARTLEY, whose general talents as an Actor would render it surprizing that lie is not engaged at-a Winter • Theatre, if the policy of the Managers were in telligible, delivered the following Address, which speaks so well for itself that we need add nothing on the oceasii:u, except to say that a good The-.I Attica! Company was provided, that the Enter tainments were conducted with the utmost regu larity, and , iliat we must join in regretting with those who admire an Institution reiilly intended to bring forward native talents, and support the character of the genuine 131ilTiStt OPERA, should be so limited in its annual career, while a foreign Theatre is •perinitted to be opened for the chief part of the year, and to render the purest Capital in the world, wilb all its imperfections, " LoNinon . , the needy Villain's gen'ral home. 0 The common shore of Pants and of Route.", " LADIEs AND GENTLEMEN—Theat Elea! Managers appear to have been allowed, by a kind of Charter, the privilege of ad dressing. you iu their own praise on the last night of perform mice in every seasnu, to boast of the exertions that have been ' used to escrit your favours, and to enlarge on the varieties I that have been produced far your amusement. It were of , little avail, hoivever, to remind you of these facts if they did out speak for themselves ; brit we trust that when the struggling . etiotts of this Theatre, under every disadvantag,e of a limited season and powerful opponents, are remembered, it will not be forgotten, that in the short period of four months no Jess than three full Operas and six Musical Entertainments and Operettas have been snbutitted to your approval—and, what is still more extraordinary than this exertion in your service, I and which, we believe, we may venture to state to be unprecedeoted—that out of all this number not one single instance of failure hits occurred. In addition to these novelties we may, perhaps, be allowed to re- I mind you, that no fewer than twelve revivals, or pieces new to this Theatre, have been brought forward. Many complaints reached the ear of the Proprietor concerning t lie want of accommodation for the numerous visitors to the boxes at the` second price. To remedy this inconvenien ce he I promptly devised the plan of opening the Great Saloon as a Shrubbery, and which we have every reason to suppose af forded universal satisfactioo, unless we except a celebrated critic, no less remarkable for his severity than for his talents. —The last novelty of the season is so directly before yon, , that a few words no that subject will suffice. need nut recapitulate what has been so fully stated before, c respecting the new plan of opening the Theatre to •in one evening; many have thought it highly beneficial tot' the public, and many have ,condenmed it as lowering the consequeoce of a regular Theatre. We cannot consider any. thing de grading that; without injuring the interests of the drama contributes to your accommodation ; but the inauspicious moment at which the experiment has been tried, with the overwhelming force of the Winter (or Patent) Theatres in terrible array against us, hire hardly given us a fair chance of estimating its success—so far as we can judge it - Ans 'suc ceeded—for during the last ten nights, compared v.ith•thr ten preceding, an addition of at least anc-third has been made to the number bf visitors in the Theatre. Stili, however, as it has been found subject to objections, the Proprietor does not at present feel justified in pledging; himself to continue it on a future season. Thus far, however, he pledges him self without reserve, that during the lung interval for which he is -compelled to close his Theatre, every effort sh all be used to merit a continuance of that patronage for which I have now the honour to tender you his grateful thanks; anti in lay own name, and that of all the Performers, I respect full bid you farewell." kOit 111 r, UN. • ACTORS.

CON.---The followink circumstauce occurred recently it a village in the cpunty, of Wilts. A man, who some time since held a respectable sta, Lion in life, had forfeited that respeambility by having formed 'a connexion with the wife o f a p o o r labourer, whom he had prevailed on to,qu;t her home:and live with hint in adul terous intercourse. ,The neighbours very pro perly shunned their. society; btkt as they were peaceable, and " kept themselves to them Selves,". the villagers had ,no other niod. of manifesting • t heir reprohal ion. One day last week, however, there occutred a Revel, about a mile from the scene of illicit love, - to which annual festivity all the . neighboorlng rustics repaired. The usual holiday fun had passed off wi , h glee, and the merry • dance had commenced—hut it wits Soon Cl uc k e d by a but, in which the w o rds " This be too hod," —" 'Od rut'em.
