. large an Audience as it could contain'.
The two first aas of the Opera went oti. with
their usual success, and Mrs. 13itAitlo-nix appa-

info-rtriedthern that Mrs. B i 1. I, 1 i4o+d i.l. wassuddenly*
taken ill; soliciting their patience for a leiV mi.'.
nines-, till she Could: recover herself sufficiently td
. gO thrcingh the rest of her part. . '..
The, Audience readily aCqiiieseed; anti pailently
waited in expeaaciori of her return. After a ccinside •
table patiie,ELLY.nrhe upon the Stage, and declared
that Mrs. Et i.LINOTON Was most alarmingly ill, re.
questing, in the name of the Managers, that if
Meaicat Gentlemen were. in, the House they would
endeavour to relieve her :This inforMatioh wag
received with great sYMptoms of general discontent,
and at length the Audience were very timiulttiOtis
in expressing their disapprobitiOn.
To allay this storm Kgivi a 1. E came forth; and with
the most solenin earnestness assured the Audience,
that after having been confined to herbed the day
before Mrs. BILL INGTON made an effort to perform
that night, in order to prevent the Public frotn
being disappointed, but that. it was with great..
..
ficulty she struggled through her last .song.; , utt
)he moment she quitted the Stage; she fell prostrate
great,_
in a fit, and that a dreadful succession of fits pre-
eluded ;all possibility of her• appearing again: He
assured the Audience that two Medical Gentletriea
of the highest respeaability were with her; wha
authorized him-td declare that, without the hazard
of het life; she could not attempt to regunte. her.

Several Voices here demanded the names of the
medical Men. , .. '

KEMB LE, for What reason we know not, did not
answer this demand, hot concluk!ed %vith expressing
his hopes that the'Audience; with their usual hu-
manity, would suffer the Entertainment to begin.

'• This Address, instNid of appeasing the Audience,
threw them into a violcnt ferment. The Band soon
after struck up Rile Br;tazinia. This patriotic Air
somewhat soothed the violence of the Audience,
who-called for the Song.. SANG w'reK3 DrcNim,

shecz.v.,.This perseverance, the Audience, with some
degree Of justice, seemed to consier. as very disre-
speelful to themselves;
,and these performers left.the
Stage amidst the strongest marks of general displea-
sure. Wedo, not mean to blame iherni becattse they
probably afted according to orders.; but such orders
were highly impolitic, and the Manner in which
they were catriedintO exAntion; seemed to indicate
an obstinate contempt for the opinjons and feelings
of the peoplq, •

Without Meaning to distrust the truth of the
t,
apology that was offered, but sincerely sympathiz-
ing with 'Mrs. BILL I NGTON, Whose exertions are
at all tines a sufficient trial of her strength, it is
proper to observe; thai there was, an evident ina
consistency bettVeen what‘. was first said by thG_
num-, and what was afterwards delivered by K trs_
ISLE, fir if Mrs; BILLIgGTON, according to the
account of the latter, had fallen into such dreadful
pm. yms,- it Was sporting wish the Audience tot
tell them, as DtoxtiNt had previously done, that
she woicl in a few minutes be able to resume her M
labours: This, ineonsiizency .struck a ajority of
`the Audience, and excited murmurs that spread over
the house.. : . .•

We conceive that .another ground of discontent
arose from the , suppression of the.naMes of the me-
dical men, which %Vete demanded by many lioices,
and,
.the disclosure of which 'Would have given a
san&ion. to the apology,' and Most-probably have,
rendered it universally acceptable.. •
The AUdience seemed to be perfeAly tranquil to-
wards the conclusion 'of the, first At of the Farce,.
and the second'ACl passed over without any farthei
disturbatice; .
