ISCAUM THEATRE.

The perfornianoe of last night was, The Beggar's
Opera; the part of Maeheath by Mr. Philipps:
This was the second time of its representation by
that Gentleman, whose powers, as a singer, are now
universally acknowledged. and whose abilities, as
•an actor. are certainly considerable. We were
happy to observe, in his Macheath, something
shove the mere vocal machine. Mr. Philipps did
not barely perform the tuner. ha performed the
port. The gay, the witty, the animated despoiler
of hearts and purses was observable, and he did
not cease to make his words impressive, When
he ceased to sing them. With a little more
tniliarity with this part, (which will moderate his
action). Mr. Philipps's Alarheath gr►st become
great favourite with the town.—Mrs. Bland,
as Lucy, hod Mrs. Bishop, as Polly, sustained
vileir respective characters with movii propriety,
and sang the different songs with great surertness
and effect. All the other performers acquitted
themselves to the satisfaction of the Hlldlttleet
as was testified in the continued plaudits, both
during the representation, and after the fill of
the curtain. The new farce of Not at Howe
followed. The parts were distributed as before.
and many judicious alterations made in differ-
ent scene.. Mr. Melvin returned to his jealous
°munition with undiminished powers ; and Mr.
Matthews exerted his fine comic teltrltti with more
art and genius than success. The disapprobation
of part of the audience was again testified, as on the
former night ; and the last scene rendered com-
pletely inaudible, from the struggle between the
noise of encouragement, and the noise of opposi-
tion. Whatever the fate of Not at How may he,
no possible blame can attach itself to the actors,
every one of whom has done all that acting could
do, for the success of it. The Managers have also
acquitted themselves well to the public, in the
manner in which they got up this nacre, and at-
tempted to add novelty to the amusements of their
Theatre. •

Last evening the excelleutcomedrof The Stispi•
eious Husband was performed to a pretty full house:
Many of the -characters were admirably sudportstl,
atirl•none more so than Mre.H.Johnston or.lLlariedrs;
Miss Norton's Joeintaa, and Mr. Jones's Ranger.
The Prude and the Coriette were excellently Sus-
tained by the two former ; and the dashing
goad-humoured libertine of fashion most capi-
tally pouttrayed by the hold.. It would he invi-
dious to notice any particular scenes, where there
are so mail to praise, did nut the ladder-scene, in
the third act, afford Jones an opportunity of dis-
playiug his comic powers to the utmost advantage ;
aii.the scene between Jacintha (in boy's clothes) and
her guardian, gave a itinilar ocr asion for exquisite
doting to Miami Norton. Mr. Egerton appeared
to more •arivanta4e in Strictland than in any
part he has yet taken on the Loudon board'.
In some of the passages, he was received with
touch applause; and we doubt not but that
us oe becomes better acquaiiited with the metro-
politan stage, he will prove a valuable
bon in genteel comedy, and a cast of characters in
which we are at prehri.t woefully deficient. Miss
Logan walked through Mrs. Strietland very cur.
redly, as did also Mr. Brunton in Freaky. The
part of Jock !Veva was well played by Farley;
an.l Helloing, the accomplished Rollout, was dune
by Clare' ttttt ! Mrs. abb.., as Locate, and Sim-
mons, as Tester, did all that could be done for
these minor characters.
With respect to the row, it is with sulfeigued
satisfaction we have to announce, that its expiring
groans are now to be heard, and that unless those
o ho are curious to hear them hasten to the Theatre
very speedily, they will be too late. The fourth
act, notwithstanding the entrauce of numbers at
half-price, went . off, without interruption, save
from one um, who, after annoying the audience
for a few minutes, was dexterously seised by the
pulice, and taken from the house. This salutary
example had a most excellent effect, and for
a length of time kept the dismayed 0. P.'s qu et
and well-behaved. We talk of the 0. P.'s, -how-
ever, as if they had appeared as on former tights.
distinguished lat badges or medals, and ranged
under the insiptia of placards; whereas, good res-
ew ! there were ant six 0. P.'s to be seen ; a very
few medals, and hut one placard, which rose for an
instant, and wall torn to maces. The whole of the
play was distinctly heard. except the latter putt of
the last act, and that was rendered inaudible, not
so much from such obstreperoits noises as we have
been accustomed to hear. as from a bus, which
prevailed from the number of talkers who occupied
toe back rows of the pit, and, nor daring to shew
themselves in a more offensive form, took tins
gentler method of evincing their hostility.
Don Juan followed, and was received with •
mixture of 'wise and of quietness.. The disturbers
disperse.) very shortly after the curtain dropped,
havin!' , previously rallied their broken spirits by a-
routiclof shouts, groans, and hisses.
Upon the whole, we may with safety now con-
gratulate the public on the exbuction of this ridi-
culous party, and the return of civilization and so-
cial order to the theatre.
The well-informed ar- now ashamed, and the vi-
cious afraid to be seen in the cause. It mast there-
fore soon dtv away, as it is impossible fee the feet
troubled spirits, who are yet left to act, to pay their
partizans, or gull the unwary into a participation
of silly schemes any longer. The drain will
Boorish in spite of opposition and conspiracy;
and the will enjoy it with the greater gust,
from lorvi.ig so long been defrauded of this most
rationot entertainment, by the artifices of a few
miserable intriguers.

The CruricaLLos was occupied, during the
most part of Saturday last, in hearing a motion, in
which the Uiher's right to poundage was involved.
Lott! Powerscourt's house, is %Villiers-street, was
sold to the Croon, far the purposes of a Stamp-
officer An Act Was passed, in 1802, directing that
the sun should be paid by the Commissioners of
Stamps to the Accountant-General, for the pur-
poses of Lord Powerscourt's family settlements,
and withers fee or reward—it was accordingly so
paid. However, a claim of sixpence per pound on
toe part of the Usti:a was preferred. The place of
Usher is a mere sinecure; it was held by a boy,
the seroud son of the late Lord Clare, the Hon.
Richard Hobart Fitsohbon, and this place well
deserves the notice of Colonel Wardle. Mr. Ro-
bert French, of Kildare-street, the Counsel and
guardian of Ibis young Usher, attended the argu-
ment on behalf of his ward. However, the LORD
CH A NCE Lunt finally disallowed the claimer pound-
age, and directed that Lord Powerscourt and his
family should receive the entire sum of 18,00fil.
without any deduction whatever.
It was observed, that the entire business of pay-
iag and receiving the switor's money has been, for
several years, transacted solely by the Accountant-
General, and that the Usher's claims of poundage
are become a very heavy public tax, sad were
exclaimed against by Lord Itedpsdale, whilst
Chancellor of Ireland.

Brahans brought an overflow last eight. Her
Grace of Richmond and daughters were in the

Mr. Torri stot..d•ao tat Court, that this was
the day on which the' hikes egress witrteturnable,
which was issued try that Court, dirseted to Captain
Shelton, quartered at Manchester barracks, requir-
ing him to detirer up the young lady whom 1w tad
seduced, to her Inca& ;—that nu return hid Ixen
made, and he, the Learned Counsel, 'wool of coo Tee

erstitlyd to move for •n attmehmetit; which right,

r,
with the approbation of the Court, he would wave,
as he understood that Captain
.Shelton mid the
young lady hull arrived that morning in Linden, in
pursuance of the writ.
Lord Et.t.nattoitounn---"You can mention it
tn-inorrorr ; if the party is making preparations to
olwy the order of the Court, it would he severe to
prevent hint."

Mr. Gg.R•DI moved, that Mr. Joseph Hibbeit.,
jim. might be allowed to exhibit articles of the
peace, against his brother, Jelin Hilthert.
The exhibit was accordingly read. which set
forth; that the exhibitor was in partnership with
his father, Joseph Wilbert, senior, and his younger
brother, John Ilibbert, whom he then complained
of, as merchants, in Hylurd's-court, Crutched-
Friars ; that there were some disputes in the part-
nership, &bunt appointing a eielk, in the month of
October last ; that the exhibitor was several times,
and at &fret ent period*, assaulted and struck by
his said brother, John Hibbert, and concluded by
praying, that the Court would restrain the said John
Wilbert, by the authority vested in them, from
breaking the peace and sasanitipg the exhibitor.
He was accordingly sworn to the articles of peace,
and that he did not prefer them out of any malice,
but oily for his own security.
SIDNEY 0. REEVE and ROBERTS.

Mr. ATTOlisi EY-Gin ESAL moved to make a Rule
absolute, to compel the Maio ti to try am issue, whe-
ther there was not an irregularity in the judgment
obtli•ied in this cause. It appeared that the De-
fendant, lirely, had become insolvent, and that
the Plaintiff had not prosecuted the suit, not sup-
posing there were sufficient assets. The Learned
Comisel dated, this might be a good argemetst for
the Plaintiff, hut it would Le quite the contrary for
Keely's creditors, iu the Plaintiff Might prove the
judgment as it now stood under the commission of
bankruptcy.
Lord ELLemeosotiou—,* You may have the
Rule, on Yeely's Assignees giving security for
the costs, if the result of this issue should require
them. It would be a hardship, to oblige the Plain-
tiff to go to trial, and put him to more expense.
without some security."
The ArrOaNEY-IiEKERAt. said, he would con-
sult with his client, and asked leave to speak to it
to-morrow.
Mr. PARK moved ,for a Rule to shew cause,
why a.writ of mandamus should not issue, directed
to Mr. John Davis, to oblige him to give ay certain
plans for the inclosure of lands' in the parish of
Towen, in the principality of Wales. It appeared
that three Commissioners were vested, by an Act of
Parliament, to see the hind in question surveyed ;
they appointed Mr. John Davie, surveyor, to draw
out plans, which he had done, but refused to hand
then. over to the Commissioner*.
Lord Est.ettooitouoit---ai, Has there been any
tender made him, as Payment, for his services ?"
Mr. PARK —4. My Lord, it does not appear
that there has.".
Lord ELszesoutonost —l, There mud be a
legal tender made, to a4cerrs in what he demands,
before a writ of mesdames can issue. He may
hold those plans as security for his demand."
Rule refused.
Mr. CLARKS moved for a rule to shew cause
why a writ of annulaustus shosisl not issue against
a Cominiminner who had been appointed by an
Act of Parliament for draining certain lauds
in the county of Exeter, he refusiog to act. There
were three Commissioners, whose duty it was to
make a return of those lands benetitted by the
drainage, which were to be taxed proportionably
with the expense of thinning ; they did make a re-
turn, but left out a quantity of land that was be-
wefitted, by mistake; two of them wishing to amend
that return, called on the third to meet them for
that purpose, which he refused, supposing th tt he
was bound by the drat return. The Learned Coun-
sel therefore moved for A writ to oblige hint to meet
the others.
Lord Et.sessoitotion--" You may take the
rule, bat let it be directed to the three Commis-
sioners, for them to shew cause why they base not
made a proper return."
Mr. DA st rt a moved for a rule to shew cause, why
there should not be a writ of leasidames issued and
directed to the Mayor and Corporation of Exeter,
to oblige them to appoint a surveyor to the roads.
By an Act of the 46th of Geo. 111. the parishes
were constituted into a townshil . The Mayor and
Corporation were the body empowered to appoint a
surveyor of the roads, by the act of Parliament.
It was the custom for the parishes to send op ten
Person) to the Corporation, for them to elect one ;
but if they disapproved of the whole number, they
might make an election elsewhere; but they had
refused to take notice of the persons sent todbas
by the parishes. sad had elected their own town-
clerk, to the office of surveyor, aiatough he was not
capable of the situation. The tendesicy of the mo•
tion was, that they should be obliged to appoint a
capable so rveyor.—Rule granted.
Mr. CUltWooD. in an ejectment case, moved,
. that the Lessor of the Plaintiff should be obliged
to enter security for the costs of suit, he being a
prisoner in France. He moved it on an affidavit of
the Defendant, which stated, that, on his being
sawed with the ejectment, he went to where the
Plaintiff ass described to reside..and found,thurt he
had not lived there for some years; that he bad
since learned he had gone to sea, sad was cap-
tured by one of the enemy's ships of war, to
March last, and carried into France, as a prisoner.
where he new is.
Load Eiadtunottotiod--g• It would be severe, be-
cause the Lessor of 11. e Plaintiff was captured, and
meek a prisoner by the enemy, that he Should be
