A very large fleeting or the leading gentlemen
who compose our distinguished Theatrical Satiety,

the precarious state or her Majesty's %eolith. they
unanimously resolved to poltpoise the opening' of
the theatre front Monday, the I4th, to Monday,
the 21,t instant. The theatre is finished in a style
of petilleliar elegance, at once honourable to the
refined taste of this classical Society, and credit-
able to the skill or the artists they had employed in
the pet lOriutonce or the work.—(Leinste► Journal

At nine o'clock this morning, when the Common
Serjesset mitered Ibis Court. he obsessed Mr. Hunt,
who sit at the table neat the Clerk of Arraigns,
mid rosid-;-••• Mr. Hum, the••motion ttttade ou
Saturday night is granted."
Mr. Hash then said, that he came there in
coosequence of what passed before his Lordship
too Saforday night when he applied for warrants
against the Proprietors and Printer of The Mew
Times raper, for a grow libel published in that
Journal sgaimit him ou the Bth natant. The Cons t
was !droned., on his making the simile itinn to which
hr alluded, to respite the nroeee4htsgs mail Monday

Edward Quin, Esqrs. and A. Mitchell, for print-
ing and publi4iiiig the said libel.

Mr.
The COMSION A NT—" I asked you nn
Sa-
turday eight. whither the alleged acemied toe
of any crime coguizible by law; and 1 notferstood
you to hive said; to ttply, that it slid not."
Mr. Hunt Vess ; I maid it did ..tit arettae mw of
any crime 1-tsgsimtble by law, hut I a,..tsti that
the [Owl is 1111111111111t.qi hi rXI ire in au txtraardinary
degree a breach of Ike iseace."
The COMMON NiFitir.* tt-r —44 From your own
statement I see etu reason to del:tater 1...0 the ts.ismi
amount of bail ; it has been usstially held that the
hail already mentioned is enough iss such a ease as
you describe."
Mr. Hunt—" I have to inform the Court that
in the case of a poor mass of the came of Cut lisle,
and also in Mr. Hone'. ease, the Court made alt
order th it the parties should be bound over its the
sum of 200/. each. the
Lioug.l pi.or Melt were not
at the time worth SOL ill theWllrld, .n,l their cases
was not as aggravated; as I take this to lie. The
poor men to wit t allude were t ttJ fur

The COINMON"SfiItrEANT-44 l'3llllot ,tep out

Mr. I sin nut here as

The COMMON SIOLISNNT—" Consistly, all pro.

Mr. Hunt—i, I wish to state further, that the
realism I came its person this warning to make the
present motion, was in COOSeqoenCe or its
beet► intimated to in in Court on Saturday night,
that such on applicatinu Could only be made through
the medium of Counsel. I cannot accede to such
au opinion."

The COMMON SERJEANT" Tli timid course
is to make such a motion by Counsel. Indeed
there ought to be a tuotion paper. But the Court
not wishing that an individual should ruder for 411
informality, sometimes indulges the party itypi) mg,
though the mode of spplicatton happen to tit un-
duly mole. It is a favour conceded."
Mr. Hunt--‘. Then 1 decline to accept as a
your that which I feel I am entitled to demand

Ihe COMMON SERJEANT—" Sir, your moth(
is granted; the Court cannot converse fur ins hoi
with a suitor in this manner."

Mr. Hunt—" Very well, my Lord, t mere!,

The Cuts or SERJEANT—" 1% itriirer yi

. Mr. Hunt then made Ilia bow to the Conn, at
withdrew to the proper Office, where he mon,
diately•took out a warrant against Edw. (411 in Of
John Stoddard, Esqrs. and A. Aikido-11, of d.
