TO THE EDITOR OF THE BRITISH PRESS.

Sta,—l presume, through the medium of your newspaper, to
solicit the attention of the lovers of the drama, and all those who can
sympathise with the suffering, to the distressed situation of the per.
formers and servants of the late Royalty Theatre. They had just
commenced their season with the most encouraging prospect of
success, and had, In dependance on the receipt of salaries and
benefits, contracted debts which they are now entirely unable to
diseharge ; several of them are mu destitute of the means of
subsistence, it being well known that their salaries will not allow
of their preparing to meet the want of employment. Indulging
the hope that the patentees and performers of the other theatres will
exert themselves in behalf of the unfortunate performers, &c. of the
late Royalty Theatre,
I remain, Sir, your obedient servant.

LA MBETILSTREET.

BASE IWO RAT I T UDE. - Yesterday a reaman named Newry Ne.
than was brought from Portsmouth, in custody of Legget, a con-
stable of that place, charged with having stolen from 3loses
BryPt, an Israelite, residing in Stooy.lane, a watch and four sove-
reigns.

Prom the statement of the prosecutor it appeared that on %Veil-
nesday week he met the prisoner, who had just landed from the
Repulse Indiaman, in a stale of intoxication, and taking pity,
from having known him formerly, and liniiing that he was com-
pletely destitute, having been robbed while under the influence of
inebriety, he took him into his house, and supported him at his
own expense until Saturday last, when lie absconded while the
prosecutor was asleep, and stole from off his table a watch and four
sovereigns out of his pocket. On missing them he made inquiries,
and ascertained that the prisoner had gone to Portsmouth, whither
he followed and had him taken into custody.
The officer, on searching him, found the duplicate of the watch,
which had been pledged in Portsmouth, and which, on its being pro-
duced by the pawnbroker (who was present, and proved that the
prisoner was the person who made the pledge), was identified by
the prosecutor as his property.
The prisoner denied his guilt, and was about to be fully commit.
ted, when it was discovered that the robbery had taken place in the
city, whither he was immediately transferred.
CONSEQUENCES OF TUE MURDER AT BROMLET.—Ca-
tiatila M'Carlhy and Catherine Maloney, were brought from
Bromley, the scene of the late melancholy catastrophe, charged,
the first with having threatened to take away the life of Margaret
Dodd, one of the witnesses on the prosecution of, the Carthys, who
were convicted of manslaughter, at the present Sessions at the Old
Bailey, and the other with having made similar threats towards
Hannah Burke.

The 31agistrates commented on the very improper and criminal
conduct of the pivoners, and ordered them to enter into recog.
motes, of the solvency of which they were to give twenty-four
hours notice, to appear at the nest Sessions, and keep the peace fur
three calender months.

INJUNCTION-13E (SU AZZA WS FEAST.
COLLINS V. MARTIN.
Mr. SIIADWELL, on behalf of the plaintiff, who purchased. in
1821. the pictures " Relithnscar's Feast.", and " Joshua commatid-
ing the Sun to stand still," tire the sum of 800 guineas, from the
defendant, the painter of those celebrated works, now moved for an
injunction to restrain the latter front publishing engravings of his
original sketches of those pictures: The application was made on
the affidavit of the plaintiff, who stated that the defendant agreed,
when he sold the work. not to print any copies of them.
Mr. BARBER said his client (the defendant) only undertook not
to paint any copiea of the pictures which he had disposed of.
Mr. SMADWELI. said that in his brief it was written print. The
plaintiff was greatly surprised on finding that Mr. Martin had 'O-
vertired to sell engravings from those pictures, and that Mr. Tur-
ner was then engraving one for plaintiff.
His liowouit did not conceive that any persan would pnrchase
the engravings without first seeing them, and then the judgment of
the purchaser would be exercised. He might easily detect In en-
graving from a sketch from that of a finished picture. The in.
junction could not be granted.
An effort was then made by the defendant's Counlcl to obtain
costa. which the Vice Chancellor refused to grant.
Injunction refused.

TO THE EDITOR OF TILE BRITISH PRESS.

SlR—q beg leave, by another Query, to answer that of " A Cot.
ton Weaver" in this day's paper.
I would ask turn if he thinks that half, or a third part even of
the females in London, can afford to wear silk as a common every
day dress ? The answer is obvious—" No ;" then if they do not wear
silk, what must they wear cotton." How then, Mr. Editor,
can your correspondent he so illiberal as to wish to prevent a few
females from wearing sill: on a holiday, when the petticoats, frocks,
&c. &c. of by far the greater number of females are composed of
cotton, worn every day, and of course will be sooner worn out, con-
sequently be oftener wanted than a silk dress.
Thus, then, where a silk weaver will weave one yard of silk, the
cotton weavers will weave twenty; anti yet your Correspondent
"A Cotton Weaver" finds fault with my recommendation to the
ladies to wear silk when they visit the theatres. Let me ask him,
When, then, must they wear silk ? prrhaps he would wish never,
and yet would not have any thing that he should say militate
against the silk weavers. With apologies for taking up so much of
your valuable room,
I remain, Sir,
Most respectfully yours

BOW-STREET.

Yesterday G. flout ------ two young chimney.
sweeps, were charged with kidnapping a boy, nine years old, the
son of a shoemaker named Ilehditch, in Wild.court, Drurplane.
The child was at Flay with a companion when the prisoners de-
coyed him away, by telling him that if lie would go with them
into the country he should have plenty to eat and drink, money,
and new clothes. On the lad consenting, they put him into a
waggon io Piccadilly, and immediately drove to the house of
Ilunt's father, a chimney-sweeper, at Brentford. The URIC
temptations which had induced him to go with them caused him
to consent to become a sweep, and lie was sent to sleep in a
Rowel where the soot was kept, and where his father found him.
Ile did not seem disgusted with his dirty occupation ; on the coo.
teary, he showed his father some halfpence, and seemed quite
pleased with his situation.
_ _

The prixoners said that the boy was willing to go, and that he
had said he had nu parents or friends. They were remanded.

On Saturday afternoon a fatal accident occurred on board
the Australian Company's ship Portland, in the Wet Dock,
Leith. While attempting to haul her out of the dock, the
eve bolt, to which the leading block is booked, with the
rope from the capstan, gave way, and the block struck two
boys on the head who were holding the rope, and injured
one of them (a fine boy of the name of Cleghorn) so much
as to cause his death next morning. The other, though
much hurt, is not considered in danger. The want of
water prevented the Portland leaving the dock on Satur-
day ; but on Sunday, with colours hoisted half mast high,
in token of respect for the boy, she succeeded in getting
out to the Roads.

The amount of Customs and Excise receipts at this port,
in the quarter just terminated, compared with the receipts
of the same quarter last year, presents a diminution of
about 70,0001. ; but we understand that the loss to the re-
venue in the reduction of the duty of ls. per pound on to-
bicco, is alone, in the late quarter, very little short of thin
stun, so that the receipts at this port exhibit a very trifling
diminution in the Customs and Excise.—Liverpool Ad-

READING ELECTION.

ERIGAY EVENING, JUNE 11L
Nothing worthy of notice occurred after tour o'clock thiA after-
noon. Mr. Spence polled only 2I during the day : he, however,
gained on Mr. Palmer, for at six o'clock the Mayor declared the
numbers to be, for

Mr. 3lonck Mr. Palmer 471 Mr. Spence 4GO
making a majority of only 11 for Palmer.
SATURDAY.
The polling again commenced this morning about the usual
hoar, and has proceeded in a very languid manner all day, Mr.
Spence having polled only 12, several of whom came from distant
parts of the country : he however had, at the close of the day's
business, reduced the majority against him to 4. His party in-
crease in confidence, and his fnends, many of whom are persons
who possess considerable influence, certainly evince much zeal and
talent by the manner in which they conduct his cause: on the
other hand, Mr. Palmer's friends are not leas active, and spare o
exertions to save him : hut it Is evident they are much alarmed at
the present aspect of affairs. A harder struggle for the honour of a
seat in Parliament has, perhaps. been seldom witnessed ; and it is
expected that It will prove a sharper run than the last, when Mr.
evland contested this borough with Mr. Palmer, and lout it by
only O.

WEYMOUTH ELECTION.

The contest here assumes the most lively interest. A union has
been formed between Mr. Buxton, Mr. Wallace. Mr. Ure, and
Mr. Farrer. Mr. Ure (one of the Candidates) is the trustee and
guardian of Sir Frederick Johnstone, a minor. and in whom the
chief property of the Borough will vest. The relations of the
young Baronet feel that their interest has been Pacrificed, and
Colonel Oordon has, therefore, stepped forward to rally their
friends, although no part of the (*tidy influence can be brought
into the field. The Colonel is decidedly the popular Candidate
Young Sir Frederick, a highly-talented youth, has been brought
down, and takes the lead in his uncle's cmvau.

On the return of the young Baronet from the Town Hall, after
this day's polling, being carries in triumph in a chair on men's
shoulders, he addressed the populace in the following speech:—
" Gentleness, sail Electors of Weymouth--Aly father left me •
guardian ; but instead of his looking after me, I have taken a
journey above one hundred miles, and travelled night and day to
look atter him.
" My family guardian, by name, is my family's enemy, in fart,
though it has been said, and by many believed, that the
pamphlet lately published contributed to destroy this guardian's
character. It is not so: that pamphlet no mute contributed to
destroy his character than a spoonful of water poured upon a rat
already drowned, could be said to have contributed to its death
It was the truth of the facts in the pamphlet that did so, and not
the mere publication of them. Hare they been refuted in the
same open manner in which they were made. or in a corner ?
" I have learnt, this very day, that in 1613 my trustees con-
veyed part of my estates to make votes; so that the voters whose
deeds state that they only paid one pound for the vote, may, for
years to come, vote against myself or ray family. I ask if it be possi-
ble to justify this conduct, at least toward.: myself ? A person this
day voted on one of these deeds before my face ; and, when I am
of age, the same person may, if he pleases, vote against me per-
sonally as a Candidate.
" I understand these votes ought to have been prepared and ma-
naged so as to render it impossible for a voter to use the freehold
at another election ; but no mart can tell how long these votes may
be sent against me.
" For the present let my friends vote for my uncle, Colonel
Gordon ; when I am old enough I will solicit them to vote fur
myself.
" I will come and live among you all the days of my life; and
the love and respect with which your noble conduct now inspires
me shall never be destroyed, or abated, till these young bones shall
be laid by the tide of the bones of my ancestors.
" Fur the present, lore you well !"

Jana:v.477oN or .MR. SUMNER.

(i t: iunroup. St; Is DAN% 12 o'cLocs.
An express has just arrived in town, which brings the
confirmation of a report which prevailed here after the
close of the poll on Saturday night. It appears that a
meeting of Mr. Sumner's friends was then held at Epsom,
and that the result of their deliberations, upon consulting
the poll-books was, that he should withdraw from the con-
test to-morrow. It is said that this decision was not alto-
griller in acquiescence with Mr. Sumner's private
I opinion ; hut for this report there is probably no foam.
dation. At all events, it has been distinctly intimated
to the committees of Mr. Denison and Mr. Pall-
mer that Mr. Sumner had declined, and instructions to
that effect have been sent off to the auxiliary committees in
London and throughout the county. 'flic propriety of
this decision cannot be doubted. Considering the state of
the poll, and the feeling which pervades the county, a con-
tinuance of the contest would be an unnecessary waste of
time and money.
It is understood that the chairing of the successful can-
didates will take place at oae o'clock to-morrow.
