STOKES V. HANIMELL.

Mr. ABBOTT applied for a Rule to shew cause
why the Defendant shduld not be let in to plead in
this case. It appeared horn the affidavit of the De-
fendant, that he had never been served with a copy of
the process in this case, which was an anion of Grim.
Con. brought by the Plaintiff against the Defendant,
his late partner, with whom he formerly carried on
business as an Attorney at Chepstow. This affi-
davit had been answered by. a counter affidavit of a
person who had been a Clerk to the Plaintiff and
Defendant, who deposed to his having served the
process on a female servant of the Defendant. To
meet this
.affidavit,
.however, the female servant al-
luded to, and her mother, who was in the house at
the time, deposed that the person said to have served
the notice of process came into the house of the De-
fendant by the back way, through the garden, into
the kitchen ; that he then gave to the servant a
bundle of papers, telling her that they were private
papers concerning ber master, which he bad found
among other papers, and which he wished her to
deliver to him. The servant told the person he
might then see her master, but this be declined, re-
tiring, as he had come in, by the back way. The
girl immediately took the bundle of papers to her
master, which he swore that he had examined both
that night and next morning ; that they were pri-
vate papers concerning the Defendant, but none Of
them a notice of process in that action or con neat-
ed with it. •

only indication of a mischievous spirit was in one
:
ruffian who threw a household bell upon the stage-,
but which fortunately did not hit any p:trformer.-
Some offensive exclamations were aimed at the La-
dies in the private boxes, but they were so MuCh
discountenanced by the majority, that the authors
did not thilik proper to repeat them ;. and 0.1041
the fair visitors continued to he the objects of notice
and animadversion, yet they were only assailed by s
harmless kind of waggery, tending to ekcite laugh
ter rather than resentment.----Ineed, the odd ho-
moors of - the maleconteuts in general' produeed
laughter among that part of the audience who took
no share in the opposition, and. Oki cheerful impulse
seethed to spread itself over the active spirits 1.v116
exrt ited it. Upon the whole, though there - was
much tumult last night, it did not wear a disgusting
form, but appeared to be strongly marked by that
sportive turn which characterises an English.crowd,
brought together for some scene of a diverting na-
ture. Notwithstanding therefore all our disappoint:-
ments, we feel strongly inclined to hail thiS'obVious
change in the temper of the crowd as a sign that the
liberal character of the people is beginning to unfold
itself, or at least that those who have darker views
than the restoration of old prices of admission,
though they may succeed in rousing the feelings of
honest JOHN BULL for a short time, cannot corrupt
his principles. and destroy his generous temper.
The play, which was The Man of tke World, was
but thinly attended at first, and was heard with an
attention little interrupted during the first two acts,
Mr. C. KEMBLE, experienced some disapprobation
on his entrance, and this was repeated at times ; but
this was so evidently the effusion of, private spleen,
that it was repelled by the general sentiment. A.
Morning Paper says that a dog was again brought
forward, with 0. P. fastened round his neck. We
did not see this four-footed champion of Old Prices,
and the general tumult prevented him from being
heard if he employed -his vocal powers in support
of them.

The following were the only novel PlacarL
" New Prices down to Hell,
And say Old Prices sent ye thither."
" John Keinble may finesse and cheat,
but can't his prices save ;
For john Bull holds the King of trunipti
Which always beats a Knave."
" john Kemble in his drowning need,
Relies upcn a fragile R O."

Mr. KEMBLE, as usual, is seta:led for
,pecitiCar
hostility, but why It is difficuli to say. He must
try to console himwlf upon SWIFT'S priikipie—tlot
we may always know a man of abilities by the
host of blockheads who rise.against him.

The ballet of Oscar and Ilialvina went off with
an accompaniment from the pit rather than from the
orchestra, and on the conclusion, after a few abor-
tive attempts at oratory, the usual 0. P. dance took
took place. There ward evidently a want et harmony
even among those who were embarked in a com-
mon cause, for one half of them roared " Gout
save the King" while the other were equally vo-
ciferous in bawling " Bide Britannia." At length,
without displaying any mischievous sentiment, they
left the Theatre, but so gradually, that we suppose
they haVe abandoned their pLin of carrying their pro•
ceedings beyond dramatic ground.

LYCEUM.—The popular drama of The Begs-
gar's Opera drew a numerous audience last night..—
Mr. PHILIPPS,- for the first time, appeared in the
character of Macheath, which he performed with
great spirit, and with a just conception of that cha-
racter. He was very successful in the songs, and res
ceived kreat applause throughout. It is to be regret-
ted that 4his performer does not endeavour to get rid
of a kindiof coaxing, wheedling gesture, which in a
Woman vi7ould excite the 'idea of rustic coquetry,
and is the only drawback on his action, which is
otherwise easy,.. spirited, and manly. Mrs. &snot,
was not quite at borne in the part •of Polly', nor did
she seem sufficiently possessed of the dialogue, and
there was a languor in her manner of singing that
seems to betoken lizlisposition.' KIVIGHV.WIIS plea-

• A Morning Paper remarkably hostile to Covent-
Garden Theatre, has adopted an artifice to deter dt
cent people from visiting it, by represznriug all the
persons who appear there as friends to the Proprie-
tors, as offensive in their dress, and absolutely nau-
seous with filth. This representation is a " weak
invention of the enemy," and is just as applicable to
the malecontents, as to the friends of the Theatre.
There are doubtless, as we have always said, many
respectable persons who are averse to the new regu-
lations of the Theatre, but - these persons are inca-
pable of those riotous proceedings which have so
long disgraced the metropolis ; among the persons
who have taken a violent part in opposing those re-
gulations, there have been many desperate agents,
who have been marked by that disgusting appear.
ante in dress and manners, which the Morning
Paper wholly imputes to the supporters of the
Proprietors. As a proof of the temper and ciial;:e-
ter of the opposition, it may be asked whether any
friend of the Proprietors would be suffered to utt, r
his sentiments, however they might be supported
by truth and justice ?
A daring robbery was committed in the road lead-
ing from St. Anne's village to Christchurch, on Sun,
day night, on •Mr. Perkes, a traveller in the Borough,
by two ruffians, who robbed him of 181. his watch,
and even his bridle and saddle. The robbers made

papers 'in his pocket-book, and Bills of Exchange,
which the thieves returned.

THE JUBILTE..

CADIZ, OCT. 1 just seen a Gentleman
who:bai-made hi' escape 'from Maifrid, and has arriv-,
ed in this. city. If the French had known where he.
:was going, they never would -have suffered him to
pass the gates,. where spies are alwayS placed to
watch those, who go out and who come in. This
Gentleman gives a melancholy account indeed of the
.state of the inhabitants of the capital. The poorer
and industrious class of society are unable to procure
enipioyment; and, \deprived of the bare-necessaries
of life, lie in the open streets in heaps of dirt and
wretchedness, while the rich vie with each other in
fulsome adulation of the 'upstart :King; but unless
they are found ingenious in this art, they are treated
as suspicious' persons, and many have been pdt under
arrest in Madrid. A new Police has been establish-.
ed, which has the power at any time, in the night
or day, to enter the houses of any person, and with
or without cause, seize the inhabitants and their
effects, and carry them to - a common gaol, where
they may linger some time, and then perhaps get
their discharge. This is by far worse than what was
called the inquisition, which the French preiend to
have abolished. Many parties of Spanish.prisoners
have of late been brought into Madrid, -.soine of
whom have been treated humanely, and others with
the utmost severity.; Some- have been hanged as
traitors and robbers, . and others have been thrown
with their wounds into dungeons. •
A day or two before. the Gentleman left Madrid,
King Joseph had returned to the capital, ;after, an
absence of some weeks, and was attended, as usual,
by a numerous guard. Complaints are made:against
the parties- of peasants and patriots who Intercept-the
couriers from this city, and vengeance is denounced
against them. Some Spaniards 4 who were not long
ago talcenin,the attempt,.were publicly, executed in
Madride, All the, news circulated 'there .by the
French, is that of the speedy arrival of many. thou-
sands_ more French- Awns into Spain.. A new de-
cree has been pnblished by the new King, ordering
a number of Spaniards to be raised for his service,:—
It has produced but little effea ; the discipline of
the French is, relaied ; they are allowed to commit
great insults, unpunished.
