THE LORD MAYOR ELECT.

P .t)n
Monday, the Lord Mayor elect, accom-
byy the Recorder and the other City Officers, who usually
Vend upon such occasions, proceeded irons Guildhall to the
tio,f.T.i;loti&Ordf Stowell, for the purpose of receivi"g, through
the Lord Chancellor, his Majesty's approbation
Suing made by the Citizens of a Lord Mayor for the
,rh g Year.
-e ltEconDErt introc;nced the Lord Mayor elect to the
„„teChancellor, and stated that he upon whom the distin-
V: d honour of the Mayoralty had been conferred by This
'Km -citizen's was a member of the Merchant Tailors' Corn-
ratlY, and was' in every nt considered by his tellow-citiiens

The
kai. LORD•CIIANCELLOa received the whole body in the
un.test manner. lie rejoiced in having the honour to corn-
th incate to the citizens of London that their choice had inet
ve, sanction and approbation of his Majesty. He (the LOrd
41111cellor) was himself, he was proud to say, a citizen of
Aiand°n, and belonged to the company of which the Lord
Yor fat Chief'
was a member. With respect to the duties which
;thathe
Magistrate had to perform, he should only say
theY were extremely important, inasmuch as not only
haaokltninistration of justice very extensively fell into his
tps, but the continuance of tranquillity and order in a
atitht measure depended upon the exercise of the very large
of .„,itY which the Chief Magistrate possessed. The thanks
zeee community must naturally follow the active and
vert°tls discharge of those duties. It was impossible to ad-
dea: the last Mayoralty without making some allusion to the 1
of a most meritorious officer and excellent man—the late
1,6i/order Sir J. Silvester. That worthy person had, by the
itniAs°f God, been removed from a world in which he had done
(104 Z good, to another in which nothing but good could be
laborny was one of his most conspicuous virtues.
ex_ious arid awful duties he had to perform were always 1
%ijetuntecli With abundant feeling,- and on those painful occa-
th`a when he had to receive the Royal order with respect to

Ittsit !heed the Throne with the hope that " mercy would season

he ntw should yield to that other, principle which " became

titre , inrportant part of the ceremony having been gone
pitait:ll,gn, the citizens took their leave, and proceeded to the hos-
,the employment of inviting the distinguished persons at
Apiv"eist end to the banquet on the 9th. A great number of
ate friends of rank have been invited.

THE THEATRES.

DRURY.LANEe-The audience were disturbed
last night, at this Theatre, by the intrusion of a
man from the Orchestre into the Pit, when the
first seat was full. It is strange, indeed, that
such an intrusion was not prevented by the ser-
vants of the Theatre, or that the intruder was not
prevented by the audience. The tumult at length
brought Mr. TERRY, who on hearing the cause
retired to inform the Manager. Mr. ELLISTON
soon after appeared, and after expressing his
regret at the disturbance, handsomely offered his
own box to those who had been annoyed by the
intruder, who, however, was compelled to retreat
by the way in which he entered, and harmony
was at length restored. Mr. ELLISTON stated
an extraordinary fact, viz. that not fewer than
30 persons had a few nights before been forced
from the Orchestra into the Pit. It may surely
he asked how such a circumstance could have
happened if the servants of the theatre did their
duty, or not effectually prevented from occurring
again. The Comedy of Wild Oats was then
represented without farther annoyance, and was
received with warm applause. _ _

. .
Co VENT...GA RD EN-The Comedy of The Won-
der was again represented 'at this Theatre last
night,• and Mr. C. KEMBLE and Miss CitEsTErt
excited the warm approbation, of a numerous
audience by their animated performance of Don
Felix and Fib/ante.
