THEATRICAL ROW.

Au. Afierpiece was got up at fistley's Theatre ern Tuesday
night, entitled, An entire new local Drama, called Irish
Loyalty ; or, The Kieg ill Dublin ! and, accordiug to the
words of the bill, "The piece to conclude with • Grand
Pageant and Banquet, at which the stational anthem, God
save the Kiag,' will be sung by the whole of the company."
The curtain rose and displayed the signal parade of a grand
procession; but the performers were instantly assailed by the
moat appalling vocal interruption from every part tithe tires-
Ire. This obstruction became more vehement is consequence
of a few dissentient yokes being raised ageing the general
feeling of the audience • but the performers wets in a few
minutes compelled to abandon the procession, eight or ten
figure, iu uhicb had only crossed the stage, and to attempt to
stifle the overwhelming opposition, by the display of the
" Gland Pagesut sad Banquet," which presented every showy
his Majesty was represented at the head of a finely il-
luminated state chamber, sealed at a table covered with oloth
of gold, and decorated with all the usual insignia. The nsm .
meal this banquet scene was opened, the gorgeous display
appeared wily to add fuel to the flame, and the uproar be.
came so deafening, that the curtain was necessarily dropped,
and the piece abrup.ly concluded. The amphitheatre was IMP
full, that during the • quest rian performances oho crowd which
bad previously occupied the areas was with difficulty at-
cumutudated on the stage.

A monument to the mem iry of Mr. COLOUHOUN,
the projector of the Savings Banks, and the
♦igilant Police Magiwate of Loudon, has been
completed in Boston, and sent up to Canandaigua,
New York, by way of the canal, to be erected ill
front of the church iu that village.

Fine fresh herrings, the first of the season, were
brought fur sale, on Tuesday morning, to Billings-
gate market.
Wednesday a man underwent the sentence of the
law in Gloucester, by bring flogged at a cart'a tint
through the principal streets of that city for the
crime of child-stealing, to en extent probably that
never before was prect!sed in this country, having
•tuleti no less than five children, three of them of
one family : the oldest of them meikouly four years.
Au incalculable concourse of people were collected
to see the punishment inflicted; the pio.u►anufae-
tory and other places of basiness were deserted
during the time. The women were particularly
outrageous in their execrations eipinst him: they
called out to the executioner dial he dad not flog
him sufficiently severe, and at the conclusion •of
the flagellation, and on his being untied from the
cart, it was with the greatest difficulty he was kept
front the women exrcuting their vengeance upon
him on his way back to the prison. It is under-
stood that the cruel and unfeeling wretch said that
lie had been employed to steal the children, but
refused to tell the motive.

Au excise hearing took place before the Magis-
trates at Truro, on Saturday se'nnight, to inquire
into a new invention for defrauding the revenue. It
appeared that more thou ten persons had for some
time past been in the habit of "giving away" beer
or ale (us they professed) tooll corners promiscuously.
But the ale was accompanied with a certain propoi-
tuns of biscuits, according to its measure. With a
pint of ale, for instance, three very small bis-
cuits, in vane not a farthing, were p►oduced.
And ostensibly for the-e biscuits three-pence, the
actual price of the ale was paid; with a quart of ale,
six biscuits at sixpence. And the people dispensing
their biscuits and ale, has been thus pleasantly
occupied under the full persuasion that no law
could arrest them in the exercise of their hospi-
tality. They found themselves, however, mistaken.
By this unlicensed conduct, they had each incurred
the penalty of Sol. which, on their conviction, the
Justices were pleased to reduce by mitigation to the
forfeiture of 101. for each house, and that tine was
ordered to be levied accordingly.
