It will be seen in our Stock List, that the Funds
yesterday suffered a farther depression. The weight
of the new Loan is considered the cause of this un-
favourable change. It is now known that the Mi-
nister will want a much larger sum than the public
expefted. Sonic speculate confidently upon the
amount, as not less 'ban "rwknvir-s ivs Mi GLAD:4s.

On Wednesday morning the 1) ANIS/I Alf 0 AS-
S/lunit Wan audience at Lord M111.011••10F. Office.
...
'elle Prince Ernest packet, from the Leeward

3d instant., off acilly, by the Bonaparte privateer of
40 guns.
The Lerel Nee ac, *Gin ra ts, from St. Thomas's,

Yesterday a Court of Common Council was
holden in the Chamber of Guildhall, but the LokD
MA VOA being very unwell. appointed Mr. Alder.
man Li Mcsumet as Lelllfi renew: there were
present seven Aldermen, and a great number of
Commoners.

The Court filled ,up the Irish Society, and the
Committees for the year ensuing.
A. Report from the Committee of City Lands
was brotight forward, in relation to the improving
Smithfield Market, which was ordered to be printed,
and a Special Court to be held for taking it into
consideration. The plans of the Market are di-
retied to be kept in the Office of Works, Guildhall,
for the inspeaion of the Members of the Court, and
all persons who may be ireettsted therein. Several
Petitions were presented to the Court, and read, and
referred.
The Committee for General Purposes made a
Report to allow Mrs. Sane Stevens, widow of the
late junior clerk in the Court of Requests, fifty
pounds to relieve her in her present difficulties, and
forty pounds per annum during pleasure, to com-
mence from Christmas last.
In the course of the business of the Court, a very
interesting and long debate took place upon a mo-
tion, " that the DireElors of the West India Dock
Company, Members of this Court, receiving sala-
ries, should, be ineligible to be eleiFfed upou any
Commission or Committee by this it ourt." The
arguments were very.ably supported, on both sides,
by Mr. S. Diner; Mr. WA t I KM AN, and Mr. Ac-
Lea Pane Imo, for the question ; and Mr. Scapa.
Mr. Deputy /3: lieu. and Sir CH A LIS
against it.
Upon the division there appeared, for the ques-
tion-

The question was negatived by a majority of 15.
The doarine of chances seems, through the In-
Risence * dame Fortune, to be considerably un-
hinged in the present State Lottery ; for. most ex-
traordinary to say. three days dra'ving of the ten
are decided, and yet ALL the CAPITAL PRITCII
are still in the Wheel. There can he only one cir-
ctfmstanee that can prove equally .extraordinary,
and which is, that any Ticket or Share. under so
singular and important rn event, should remain un-
disposcd of.

THEATRE.
COVZIKT-GA SUM
The T 0,,,,: knelt,* performed Romeo 'at th
Theatre, last night. Those who have not seen hn
in Athmet, Frederick, and Norval, must have bee
astonished and &lighted. Those who have seen hit
in! these eharaaers, must acknowledge his Rome
considerably below them. His Aaion was graters
and his conception of the chdifteer just, but h
could seldom make the audience feel him. Indee
in Aehmrt, the love scenes were those in which hi
excellence was least cansp!cuous, and hence ci
;sedation ought not to have been too sanguine c
extraordinary success in Romeo; a rharader mad
up entirely of love materials, the most rertraiyit
tender, and delicate. In our former observatiar
upon this astonishing boy, we stated, that fili.
piety, courage, generosity, and pride, were feel
ings all congenial with his years. A few mot
are, perhaps, necessary to bestow upos hi
voice all the modulated harmony essential to th
romantic lover. At present his voice wants ever
and variety. In the two first AEI; he did not titter
tone that was not familiar to those wh3 had I I
in Young Norval. Uatil a nmt'srer age, ! • ••
tia wisely to avoid the class of love sick •
They will exhibit him only as an astono.,:.
boy. In Norval, Achmet, and Fn.terek, he foil ii
rival up-in the stage. The Youv. ROnthiS had rr
last night a mistress like Mrs. Sr.. Lanett's fib
ronihe, a figure neither men nor woman. He ha
all the advantage of a most interesting Juliet in th
person of Mrs. H. Sionnt4o.
