SPECIAL SESSIONS—Coax, MAY 22.
Immediately after the County Meeting hid broke up, Mr.
Serjeant Lloyd and the Assistant Barrister took their seats on
the Bench. A few Magistrates only attended in the gallery.
John Riordan was charged as an idle and disorderly person,
having been found in different public houses in the town of
Bandon, on the night of Thursday the 16th instant.
The Magistrates did not feel that it was a case of conviction ;
at the same time they considered the prisoner came before shun
under suspicious circumstances, and therefore thought he should
give security for his good behaviour.
The Serjeant then addressing .the few-Magistrates which were
present said, that it having been suggested to him from a Meet-
ing of the Magistrates, that it was not necessary at the present
to continue the sittings under this Act, he took the opportunity
of saying in parting, that it had been a consolation to nim while
administering this severe but necessary measure to have been
assisted by a body of Gentlemen who, for intelligence and hu-
manity,could not be exceeded in any country in Europe. It was
to be hoped that the peasantry would see their own interest, and
the folly and uselessness of those outrages into which they had
been betrayed, and that they would return to those paths of
peaCe, Which he firmly believed they would never have depart-
ed from but at the instigation of factious and secret dema-
gogues. It was right, at all events, to give an opportunity of
sheaving by what spirit they were now actuated, And what in-
fluence example had upon them ; and therefore the sittings
would now be adjourned to Monday, the 17th of June. •
This arrangement was approved of, and the Learned Ser-
jeant took his leave, accompanied, we believe, by the respect
and regard of every individual whose good opinion is worth
cultivating, for the honest, honourable' and humane, but firm
administration of a law of acknowledged severity, however the
circumstances of the times may have rendered its enactment
necessary.

On Saturday last, a large and respectable party
of the Merchants of Barnstaple dined together at the Fortescue
Arms, to commemorate the grant of the warehousing system
being extended to that port. S. Brembridge, Esq. presided; and
the company entered very spiritedly into the advantages it will
produce,and., with a continuance of the feelings then expressed,
this town must soon rise to an enviable rank in mercantile pur-
suits.

On Wednesday, a Meeting of the-Yeomanry
of Cornwall was held at Oliver's Hotel, Bodmin, on the sub-
ject of Tithes, J. P. Peters, Esq. in the chair. The object is
to petition Parliament for a general Revision and Improve-
ment of the Tithe Laws, with a view to establish a just and
fair commutation. A Committee was appointed to prepare the
Petitions and collect subscriptions.

ROYAL FETE AT THE KINGS THEATRE,
FOR TEE RELIEF OF TIM IRISH IEASANTILY.
The FETE for the DISTRESSED: 'RIM last night was of
a very stately order. A bouethree thousand. tickets were said
to have been issued, and probably the chief part of the per-
sons of distinction in towne wereepresent. The doors were
partially opened about-eight, and the preparations were thus
in some degree seen in their progress. Workmen were busy
in making rather perilous eiperiments in lighting the addi-
tional chandeliers ; waiters were hurrying across the stage with
preparations for future feasting ; and the Committee of Noble-
men in their deshabil:e, with His Grace of Devonshire at
their head, were directing, urging, and altAringawith boundless
diligence and perplexity. The decorations of the house were
splendid in the extreme, and the eoep d'ch's/ was particular-
ly showy. ' RoUnd the 'great central chandelier were fifteen
smaller ones, and in their intervals as many immense chains of
roses red and white depending frOin the crown of the central
one. Similar chains were festooned froro the fourth range of
boxes down to the second with „steads ofscoleura grouped be.
tween them. The second range was draped with white cloth
and roses ; the-first row above that level with the pit Was steeped
with rod lad mite roses: The dozen or fifteen boxes-in the
centre of this range were thrown into 'one, which - was Overshaa
slowed by the folds of an enormous pavilion reaching to the
gallery and surmounted with a crown.
The pavilion was again divided into three compartments by a
curtain ; two chairs were placed in the central division for the
King and the Duke of York. The division on the right had
six chairs, which were afterwards occupied by the Princesses,
and the Ladiesj of the Austrian and Russian Ambassadors. In
front of this pavilion a space of about twenty yards was railed
off for dancing.
At the other end of the vista the proscenium exhibited a an.
nerb tent of red and white draperies sustained on gilded oe-
lumns, and with a whole forest of shrubs in the tectiaes be-
tween. A large transparency of the King in it taititelkal car
led by Britannia to the succour of Ireland, filled up the farther
side of the tent ; and a east chandelier, encircled with a range
of smaller lamps, threw a powerful brightness on the entire.
Round the theatre steps covered with crimson led to the different
parts of the house, and the arrangements for general ease of access
seemed successful. Two bands of the Life Guards were placed
in the front pf the gallery, a band of the Foot Guards were
placed under the transparency, a quadrille orchestra was
placed on the right, and all these played at intervals during the
evening.
From nine till ten the company came in considerable num-
bers ; the boxes were rapidly seized, and the seizureswas the
easier, as, to prevent any undue appropriation, the doors had
been taken off the hinges. - The floor now began to exhibit the
sparkling of stars, the waving of plumes, and the graver glories
of embroidered coats. The Ktera's arrival was soon announced,
and at half-past ten the sounding of trumpets turned all eyes on
the royal box. His Majesty entered in a burst of God save the
King from the bands, and was received by the multitude stand-
ing. The crowd had by this time become enormous, and this
colossal area was completely filled in its whole length. The
boxes were equally crowded, and the eye rested on an immense
and unbroken mass of plumes,
.fissued dresses, and scarlet and
blue caparisons, glittering with gold, and orders of every class
and kind in Europe.
The King conversed for a while with the Duchess of Glou-
cester and the other Ladies, and then sat down with the Duke
of York to enjoy the entertainment, such as it might be. For
a while its promise was not very captivating ; but at length Ves-
tris and Volet appeared in the space before the pavilion. For
the first few moments it was obviously supposed that .Vestris
was a young Guardsman and Volet a fair exhibitor of fashion.
But a sudden plunge of Vestris, followed by a similar evolu-
tion on the part of the Lady, soon convinced the spectators that
something more than the skill of mere high. life was concerned,
and the Corps de Ballet was allowed all its honours. This
done, the Gavo:fe of the Minuet de la CriOr was gracefully per.
formed. Then followed, at some slighninteryals, a quadrille
by all the principal dancers of the Theatre; a pas de deur,
in which Deverrennes made herself conspicuous, and a re-
" petition of the gavotte by Paul and Mercandotti, a very
elegant and animated performance. The pressure to sec
this graceful exhibition was severe, and gallantry' seemed
to be occasionally forgotten in curiosity. Refre3hments
were amply provided in temporary hale, covered in from
the Arcade. A long table was laid out in the concert room,
where a quadrille band was placed, aed those who were
overwhelmed by the pressure of the Theatre made their escape
to life, rest, and fresh air. The fate was in full display when
we left it and it must be acknowledged that the Committee de-
serve high credit for the expedition with which the); made their
arrangements, and the completeness of the Rte. Tim object of
their undertaking is above all praise, and to judge from the
aspect of the night, we should suppose its success to have been
as ample as their zeal and benevolence deserved.
His Majesty wore a full deeis military uniform of scarlet
and gold. Hit Royal Highness and the Duke of Devonshire
appeared in the same costume. The King. appeared in the en-
joyment of health, and highly delighted with the scene around
him.
BALL Rooet.--It is impossible to conceive any thing so
splendid as the coup d'oil which this room; if such it may be
called, presents at this moment (twelve o'clock.) Every
box is literally filled with Ladies, 'in the most magnificent
dresses. The stage and pit exhibit such a gay and orderly
crowd as was, perhaps, never before brought -together. The
King, with the Duke of York, occupies the state box. On his
Majesty's right hand is the box for the Princesses and foreign
Ladies of distinction—a line of jewels !On his Majesty's left are
the distinguished Lady Patronesses; A part of the floor imme-
diately before his Majesty is corded for the dancers. The only
dancing which has taken place yet his been confined to the corps
de ballet. linagine these pictures of -grace surrounded by a
dense mass of Ladies, whose towering plvenes and sparkling
diamonds are still -unable to eclipse the-a- beauty. It war not
expected that there could be any thing like comfortable Qua-
drilles until two or three o'clock, sehere the company would be-
gin to thin a little. With such music, beauty, splendour, and
rank, one might suppose himself transported into one of those
scenes of enchantthent described in the "Arabian Nights."
His Majesty retired at two O'clock. •
