• Dew grand Pantnntuute Ballet of Action, founded
on a rointuitie German Legend, called Knapechou,
the Forest Fiend. This Bullet is of the seasons
kind ; the interest is well kept up, and sonic of the

tiful, the dres,cs are superb, and the music
and overture, composed by Mr. C. Smut, dn.-
play taste and science. Miss Lve;ao and Miss

Thecireuinstauceo of this case have been before the
public. The LORD CIiANCIILLOII gave juslAusent to
it this day. Ile stated at length the !nil and answer,
and observed, that the imoiness of the Theatre

Defendant, Colton'', was arrested, which 1,114 In
1806, anchhe bill was tiled in March, 1809. If
he ass to give an opinion, as a private
it would he that it was impossible for the Mana,er
of a Theatre to perform the functions of his ofli .e
iii confinemeilt. The bill states the several duties
of a Manager, and the answer contradicts that
statement; a was impoimble for the Court to say
what were the duties required, when the parties
themselves could not agree as to the duties of the
office. It was set forth in the bill, that the Farce
of The Critic had been performing, with great
success, alien it was stopped by ti,e Defendant,
Colman ; it was admitted by the ac4wer, that it
was stopped, but that it was done b the 'oftener
of Air. Sheridan. There war UlOO a charge against
the Defendant, Colman, for exscting tool. more than

the Plaintiff purchased the eighth from 'Courline,
