the creating of much discontent amongst thousands of re.
spectable Englishmen' who preferred whiskey to-any other

the Saloon of brury-tine Theatre. for the purpose
of taking into consideration the Repast of the
Select Committer on the proceedings of I Meet.
ing of New Renter., which took !dace on the 114
instant.

Mr. C A FT being called le the Chair, hogged
leave to state shortly the reasons for calling 'this
Meeting. Vi'lwit the "deer isement wits snit to the
p torn, the Select Committee not basing settled
the subscription required. -anal out being insane of
the dispositiou of the New R•ntere, futeudest to re-
nen. Another Sleeting, however, siai held yeeter..
day (Friday), and lie was happy to infortu them
that the New Reuters Concurred in the proposition
of the Select Committee; that their conduct was
Most reasonable, kind, and conciliating; and that
they were willing to make batmen cause foe
the interests of the conceit), provided the Pro.'
+neon' were willing to give thee that wearily
which the priority of their claims desuendedes.
They agreed to relinquish arrears amounting' to
119,000/. mud an accruing rent fur the nett four
years. which would amount toshe seine ' The
sacrifice, therefore. on the whole. n*a that lesellhan .
32,0061. Unless such • sacrifice *us .male, It
would be impossible to stir a step farther in the
concern. But there was another point yet to be
gained—the (Piing up of the subscriptioiA. For
this purpose, the Select Committee were desiteni
to retain their powers for a fortnight longer, to try
whether the object could be accomplished. He
should not wish to let this or any other fit °motto-
oily pass, without Metttioning she very preiseemetek
munificent, and liberal conduct of kir Royal
Highness the Prince Regent. Encouraged by
the generous example, set by his Royal Highness
(who had subscribed 1,000!.), the Committee
thought it their duty, after applying, first, to
the illustrious person who stood first, to retake a
similar application to other brunches of the Royal
Family. groat two they .had communication*,
stating certain rations why they could not subscribe
under existing circomstances. Prom the other
three Members they had no eommunication at all,
of any sort or kind. He would now pioceed to read
the Report. It stated, generally, that the New
Renters had, in • meeting of the previous day,
.elleeed to give up part of their arrears, linden iiceru-
'ing an .. ity for the next four years, provided an
Act of Parliament war Obtained to enable them to
recover their future debts by distress,_ and that
the bond-holders and tradesmen were disposed to
act with equal liberality.
The CIIAIRitAii then proceeded. By these
means the debt, amounting to 90,914/. might be
cleared off in twenty-two years, the rithscription
loan of 25,0001. being previously discharged. Se-
vend advantageous offers were made to rent the
theatre. Two greet objects were now effected,
the rest remained to be done by the Proprietors.
The amount of subscription already raised was only
9,519/. not half the sum required. All depended
upon realizing this ; and for his part, Ito far as
his individual exertions could go, he was d,
termined to do every thing its his power to ef•
feet it. Unless the amount of. the load pro-
posed could now be obtained, the concern could
never again be placed under such favourable cif-
cumstences as it was at present. The disaind.
tion debt was such as could not be expected at any
future period. lie hoped, therefore, the Proprie.
tors would do every thing in their power to raise the
subscription required. Tin year, before which
they could not expect to derive any advantage frost
their present exertions, was certainly a long time
but it should be recollected, that, without the cub-
scription, no good at all could be effected, either
pow, or hereafter. If the concern were to go on ea
it stood at present, they could not even at the enll
pf ten years receive any dividend. By accomplish-
ing, however, the measure recommended, their
shares would' immediately become of greet value
compared to whet they were at present. The
Chairman concluded by
.stating other adtatitsges
that would arise front realizing the psupeoesi at.heme.
. Mr. Homo, gave his most cordial Nippon not only
to the Report of the Committee, but to every thing
which had been said by the Chairman; and stated,
la addition, that it was intended to go to Parliament
next Session for leave td being in a Bill to rumble
them to gig o security to the, Contributors to the
loan. The Chairmani
the he said, had taken so com-
prehensive view of affeirsUf the theatre, that
little was left to say; but there was one class of
persons who had the strongest claims ou their at-
tention, who bad been accidentally overlooked ;
lie meant the performers.—(Hear, Anse, hear.)—
When the merits of these persons were taken into
their consideration, all that they had done for the
theatre, and the enxieti with which they and their
numerous families were looking to the result of their
deliberations, he thought it impossible to offer a
stronger motive for their most prompt and rattiest
exertions tit briug_ the labours of the Select Coin-
mittee to • suceesafol close. He would repeat; " all
that they had dose for the theetree." for uo part of
its misfortunes were attributable to them. He had
bong ago told them to whom it owed its &date;
but those personas had at length retired, and he
would not now enlarge upon their Minimiser:.
ment ; especially as the theatre had happily re-
turned °Hee more under a legitimate 'gotten,.
toad, end would no doubt be completely sue;
cessful. He again reminded the Meeting of
the necessity there was for promptithde and deci.
nun in completing the subscription' for, he ob-
served, they ;night he tutored that if they antlered
soother fortnight to elapse without that emipletirte;
their exertion, would be too late. They ought to
bear in Mind that it was new the month ofJuly; and
that one of the persons its treaty for the thretfe pro=

leis father in Berners-street. Witness's father was
oil apothecary, and attended Mr. PeacuAk's family.
I:7lttiess and hi■ brother occasioually visited at Mr.
Peacock's. Witness never heard of any prevent
made by his brother to Mrs. Peacock. Never
saw that ludy at his father's house, except in com-
pany with her husband or brother. Was not in
Defrodaut's confidence ; never s ity Mr*. Pea-
'tea in the street, or heard from his brother that
he bad tart her. Witness was the person whom the
Defendant consulted whets Mr. S. Peacock called.
The Defendant said Mr. S. Peacock had spoken to
him shoat giving up some letters which he accused
him of having received fro:n Mrs. Peacock. Wit.
loess then advised hint. if he had any such letter►,
"soot to give them up ; but witness had no knowledge
whether hr had any such letters or Out. Witness
himl seen Mr.. Peacock once since this transaction
'at Lady Prake'e house; but had never heard from
his brother that he had seen her, except once I aaibb
ing her in the street. 11'itisese bud six brothers,
WM was himself the thirst: he Mali twetsty-four,
but did not believe the Defendant was yet twenty.
Defendant had his ensign's half-pay, but witness
knew of nothing else which he lied.
Mr. ADAsts, who was for the Defendant, submit-
ted to the Jury that he had never heard a Cabe in
which a charge of this nature ►tood on so weak a
'foundation. 111 she Jury should, in this case. find
• a verdict for the l'l tiff, they would thereby in-
- volve Ilse Defendant in ruin teed infamy, in which
' this totsfottunale Lady would be a participator; and
-.the families of each must also share to a certain ex-
tent, in the misery and disgrace which would arise
out of such a verdict. He submitted that in thus
case though there might be some proof of levity in
?he rotscluet of (salt parties, yet there was, at the
Isl4lo. nothing beyond suspicion of the adultery,
and the Jury would out its this case find.a verdict
uti stiepeelmi.
Mr. SCARLETT here interposed, mud observed,
if his Lordship should be of upimon with his
Learned Friend, he would bow to that opinion. and
*top the case here, by consenti% to a noo-suit.
