THEATRP.

The Comedy of The Tessesett was last night
brought fire ard, tinder the auspices of Mr. Kass.
ace,
and with his alterations, or rather innova-
tiom. It is, Sre believe, the same as performed
st Drury-lane Theatie. some years since, when
mu. 011 DAN and M'SS FA RR!!! played the
parts of ()whiff,. and Mirand.: ; artd Mrs. Goon-
ALL, the lady then so moth admire.' in rn tie
attire, was the youthful Hosalaa, who htd been
reared on a rock, and, so far from tbinii4 of a
female, had never dreamed of one. Wacher the
public are become flutee fastidious, their taste
arm refined, or that the fascination ci tdese Ladies
could reconcile an audience to any otece, however
warred and defeetive, we cannot sty ; but whatever
rosy have been the cause of its former succes, the
fire of this revived loupes/ was indeed the re-
verse. The interpolated charaßers of nori,rdn and
ty,olita never appeared last night but to create
murmurs, which only rt•speCl for their tepresenta-
, trey Mrs. C. KIM SL e and Miss Liao An. restrained
' !,in hounds, until the end of the i.'nurtit Aa,
W:cn the blues became general. This masked dis-
ty !Probation prolduced a cry of "Turn time ant, tarn
1-01 r out," among the friends of the piece, and a
y ung Gentleman in the Pi•t, wh;ch was loud in
Its expressi• ns of disccntenr, was selected for that
punishment 'rho Const ,blrs were introduced for
e purpose of infliati.g ; the Gentleman appealed
to the house against this summary proceeding ;
but..frorn vi• nose and confusion, it was impossible
to hear what he said I iis adchows.--leiewever, had
the sie,itrd effeft. The :ludernee supported lion,
and " Keep INAIP place! stay ;la ! etve in .1" w••• e
iociferated tram all quarters The officers did not
persevere, and welii away without their p. tomer.
In the midst' of this disitirsoince, Mr. KLMIILS, as
PreetrrO, and Sliss B. unties, as Miranda, had
come on the stage, but were soon obliged to retire.
Order and tranquillity, however, were soon re-
stored, and the Comedy concluded with eon-ider-
able applause. Mr Ker e's Prospers was a very
t a fie performance. In the three firs, *as, the dig-
nity of the Prince was lost in the Necromancer ; but
he rallied in the filth aR, and displayed all his usual
esedlesue. A young Lady, apparently nt about
seventeen, made her debit in the part of Ariel. Her
kitten is tight, airy, and graceful; her aftion easy
and appr tpriate; and she appeared in full posses-anti
of her powers both of voice and aat••1). Her fist
song was:even with great taste and • x •eniicin, and
'was sa;autously entered. Also .n !Mese the Bee
was. t.tm ens k I, site was extremt ly ha py, and

forth a e a+-nal encore. Her drets was beatniftil,
and dispia yt: t ',TEA taste ; indeed. we have seldom
seen am re successful debit. Mr. Briar din

much nut of his line, that in the first scene, he more
than one toner c• d the audierce, that let his die-
guice tie what t may, he is " Yorkshire rill" Mr
Mussota was chaste and humournus in tipkisiso. and
Mr. Few-err entertaining in Trincele. Mr. C

THE CHASE.

LORD IMRIANIITOM's FOX•HOUNDS.
On Nliariday stonnight, the Earl Darlington's
fot-heililds mat at Langton, at hAlf pact 1 I o'clock.
'Hit Lordship, in going to cover, had sees a fox
crossing the plantations towards the gardens ; the
bounds were very soon afterward, laid on. and,
'after a little siOld hunting, wont off at sense. For
'One hour sad thirty.five minutes,, they had a con-
tinued butst, but unfortunately ran to groilad at
Watiass-Whin, an unstopped cover. The distance
they went, from point to point, eas nearly twelve
miles ; and the whole run may be moderately com•
piste.' at nut less than seventeen miles. From
Langton he made for Yalfortn ; turned to the
rift ter Tbrintoft ; back again towitds Langton ;
classed the Swale River (bank-full) to Sctuton ;
through Mr. Jackson's Nurseries to Blow-houses;
pascal Leasnwes, over Askew new-inclosed carn-
ation, down to Askew Village ; over the brnck to
Uzciiie to the right tow:stills Crake-Hall ; over Mr.
Pierses Part, and through his Plantations to Ask-
Mink ; passed Thorp and Witless, and rau to
ground at WAtlass-Whin. From a very numerals*
field of sportsmen, the. only Gentlemen in at the
end were the following. Lord Darlington upon
.Killer;Lod Mr Shelton upon Regiiiin ; Mr. R.
Laseelti-s upon titer-7'44( ; Mr. C. Parker upon
Pot; and Mr. Strickland upon ;
James Gray and William Richardson, two of the
whippers-in, upon %looks and Rinse..
For straighr tot ward.rsinniog.- and hard pressing,
this chase was certainly never surpassed, and hot
seldom equalled : a Walter. or a more Swat Fox
was tever s and a stead:er pack of
hounds never poured their speed into the rapid
game."

THZ ICING W. 01:011GE SUMAC, Esq.
This was a Criminal laforrnetion, filet by leave
of the Court, against the Defendant. late a Captain
in the Navy, for sending a later to Sir Charles Ha-
milton, Bart. with intent to provoke hint to tight a
duel.--The offence was charged dffierently in the
three coins of the Information. First, for sending
a challenge; secondly, for sending a letter, in order
to induce him to send a challenge ; and thirdly, for
sending a challenge, in order to break the peace.
Mr. GAR sow, for the prosecution, commented,
with his usual ability, upon the nature of the offence
with which the Defendant stood charged, and the
serious effeds of mica conduit upon society, &c.
This case, he stated, arose oat of a ship captured
by Sir C. Hamilton ; in consequence of which a
suit was instituted in Dodars' Commons, and the
deptn of water, upon a p articular sand bank, off the
English coast, became a question in the cause ;
in order to decide which, the Defendant, with some
other nautical gentlemen, were to be el:Amin:A
as witnesses. Sir Charles Hamilton had instruct-
ed his Proctors or Agents, or rhey had advised
the Baronet, to hay-, some qtie,:rions put to Captain
Brisac, that affedet his compete• cy as a witreu, in
it.y cause whatever. These questions related to a
former prosecnrion against Captain Brisac, upon
which he bad been convicted, and sentenced to the
pillory. The Agents ht-Proctors of Sir C. Hamil-
ton, therefore urged, that under such circumstances,
be was not a competent witness. In consequence of
this transaction, t letter, upon which the intorma-
. Lion was grounded, was sent by the Defendant to
Sir Charles Himilton. This letter was written in
terms nearly as follows :
" SIR—I am Aware of the advantage you will have over me,

but I cans a hop out- iig t .e unmanly use you make of it,

reply, and odmin, Sir, die. lie.
After some further animadversions upon this let-
ter, of which the Learned Counsel conceived every
line breathed a ehalle4e.
Sir Charles Hamilton, the Prosecutor, was exa-
mined with reaped to the receipt of the letter. He
said. that it was inclosed in an envelope, direded
the Witness at Harwich, and forwarded by his ser-
vant, to his honse, No. Si Devonshiresplace, Lon.
don, where lie received it The letter itself was
not diroded.
Sir Vic ART Glass, for the Defendant, contend-
ed, that, under these circumstances, there was not
sufficient publication in the county of Middlesex to
support this information ; the principal ad of pub-
lication having taken place in the county of Essex.
Lord Et tznaoliodon over-ruled this objection,
observing, that whenever a letter is sent from one
county into another, it was quite sufficient that it
arrived there. The letter in question was put into
the track for its publication in Middlesex.
The hand-writing of the Defendant being proved,
Sir VlCestY Glass, in a most feeling and able
address to the Jury, on behalf of the Defendant,
aemitted that he stood as a person convilted 'Ton
the records of tl:e Court; but he could not help
feeling that he had been hardly treated. He wrote
this letter under the influence of a wounded spirit,
goa led and perplexed in mind by such a transaction
as had been described. Ilse Learned Counsel dwelt,
with great sti eagth and feeling, spots the long and
honourable services of the Defendant, a man now
at almost the close of a long life, and brought in!ri
disgrace by a cause, which he himself felt was
hard one. It was with that spirit he wrote the
letter ; and he left it to the Jury to consider,
as he wrote it under such a state of irritation,
whether some allowance ought not be made fur the
wounded mind of a Man, accustomed to contem-
rive nothing but his own actions, always higaly re-
diaincling to his own honour, and serviceable to his
Sovereign and to his County, for upwards of forty
years. dle trusted the Jury would place themselves
in the situation of such a man, now with grey hairs,
descrniii. gto the grave. " Considering all the cis.-
, cuinstancet," the Learned Counsel coutaafted, as the

Of Justice, he ought not to have felt any resent-
ment,- because it is the duty of every man never W
resent any thing, hut by appeal to the law of hh
country." This, however, reminded him of the
words of an eloquent writer, who says, •' That
would, indeed, he gnake, hot the order of hu-
manity extends not so far."—lie cia-cluded with a
hope, that the Jury would acquit this gallant officer
of any intention to provoke the Prosecut r to Fight
a duel, or commit any breach of the peace. -
Lord ELL toaomovoit. in summing alp the evi-
dence, observed, that the question for the Jury's
consideration. was, whether this letter was intended
as a breach of the peac'e, or to induce ii? and whe-
ther it did not call on the Jury, with understandings
formed as theirs, who were long in the habits of the
world, to sae, whether it was not intended as a pro-
vocation to fight a duel ?
The Jury retired for about twenty minutes, and
then br aught in a Werdia of Nat Gado.
A few other Causes, of no public moment, were
di.powd of, and the sittings at Westminster Hall
terminated.
the Court sits to-morrow morning (this day) at
Nisi Friar, in Guildhall.

OLD B.iat.r SESSIONS, Dec: 8.
The Sessions ended this day, and aff-,rded scarce-
ly any thing worthy of notice. The only trial ca-
pable of exciting any interest, was that of James
Sloth:row and Ho ,teth Sireno4; the former etearged
with having burglarionJv And fel•ekusly entered
the dwelling-house of Sir James Dunkin, in the pa-
rish of Mary-la-bole*, and having Wool from thence
several articles of furniture and wearing apparel, to
a co,siderable amount. The latter was charged
with having teceived these articles, knowing them I
to have been stolen.
The first Witness, a young woman, servant to Sir
James, and to *hos- care the house had been com-
mitted, stated, that, on the 15th of November last,
at eis lit o'clock in the evening, she went on business
abroad, and carefully locked the door. In about an
how ..he returned to the house, and was sot prised
to fi. d, that, in her absence, some persons had ob-
tained admiNsion, by the assistance (she upposed) of
a talse key, and had taken form thence alnioA every
stainable article of furniture or apparel. She im-
mediately made application to the Police Officers,
in her neighbourhood, who were led to suspect Mrs.
Simmons, in Mary la-bonne-lane, as tieing a party
conees Led, from some detection of her dishonesty on
a former occa.iou. On se aching the house of Mrs.
Simmons, who lived there at the time with her hus-
band, since fled. several of the articles stolen from Sir
J. Dunkin, on the evening above-mentioned, were
discovered. She was accordingly taken into ens-
•ody, and, while detained for examination, the Pri-
soner, Hellsgrove, was observed to enter, Rll,l con-
verse very familiarly with her. From the suspi-
cious nature of this cesiference, the Officers were
induced to arrest him. On the eternisation of Mrs.
Simmons before the Presiding Magistrate, she con-
fessed she bad received the goods ftorn the hands of
Hollsgrove, who had, on that occasion, let fall a
skeleton key, which he acknowledged was his, and
with which, she presumed, nit bad opened the door
of the shove-mentioned house.
The Ranuariaa, us a very few words, observed,
however probable the guilt of Hollsgrove might
be, the July. from the total want of direa evidence,
could not possibly find him guilty. And although
the condo. of Mrs. Simmons had been barefaceelly
yet. as she lived at that time in the house
with her husband, who had since Bed, she could not,
in the eye of the law, be deemed guilty, as it must
be preowned that she ailed under his influence.
POLILE.
ss ANSION•NOSISR.
'folds Forster., a black sailor, in the Portuguese
service, was fully committed to take his trial Foy
stealing a piece of Chambray muslin, in the shop of
Mr. Allard, Linen diaper, BishopsFrate-street

have a single farthiag urea him. la his defence,
he said, he took the muslin in mistake.
William Brown and lireharst Daly, the two well-
dressed !roux, takirn up on Saturdiy, upon the
Royal Exchange, on suspicion of being pickpockets,
were put to the bar; tieing asked how they got their
livelihood Brown said, he WAS a shoemaker, lately
arrived from Staffordshire, and that he lodged at
the three Kings, Piccadilly. Daly said, that he is
a partrer wills his mother, in the straw bonnet busi-
ness, in Islington-road. A Solicitor, who attended

at Hetling House. B1NJ• IS IN Hoettousa, Esq.
M.P. was unanimously re-eleOed President. and
Rico AND Battier, E.sg was chosen one of the Vice-
Presidents. The attendance of the Nobility, Gen-
tiy, and Agriculturists, has been on few occasions
more numerous or respeflable. Ibe thew of live
stock was inlet ior in point of number to some for-
mer years, which is to be partly attributed to the
Meeting being held a week earlier, of which many
hieeders might not have been aware. Dr. Palley's
Rack of Merino Ryeland sheep (not sent as with-
dotes for any prize) was universal'', admired—there
was exhibited a remarkably tine tat hog, brought
by a Mr. dodoes—a bull of uncommon size and
beauty, sett by Mr. Wail' I; PA RSONS —besides of .er
Valuable improved stock. The Bedfordean gold
medal was awarded to Joint Bistiriostari Li•
