diament preferred by the Managers of Covent-Wlr"
den Theatre was thrown out, is the person who on.
two eventngs addre•sed the audience in the. uniform
of an otheur of the navy. :We understand that Oil
(grounds upon which the Bill was ignored were; that
he did not interrupt the• pertOrmances, not having
male his speeches until the curtain had fallen for the.
flight. . •

Tc.e proceediygs of the Court this day were very
uninteies ing. Tile on.y tiials, of: any pUbtic ito-

churl Flanna.gan, Thomas Sinith,. John' .Niclzoils,
James Carman, and Jona Phoney, for a-dangeroug

Sessions adjourned. ,

Wednesday, a boy purchased a' cracker at Mr.
.POStlfeth'wayte's ironmonger, Lane-end, Stafford-
shire, and imine(liately set fire to it at a candle on Lb._
counter in tic: snop the explosion conuntiuicated
with a cannister, containing a- quantity Of gunpoiff-
der, which shattered the xvindow .to pieces, atigl
forced the wood-work into the street, besides injo°
ring many articles in the shop. Mr. P. and the bor
had their heitis and faces much scorched; and as,
,there was a_ great quantity of gunpowder in the shop, •
and on the preiniz:ies, it is a wonderful and very for-
tunate circumstance that much greater damage vvos
not done. ,
A most curious case ,is now under the Consider-
ation of the first Crown Lawyers. A; erson, who
a short time since was partner in a house (recently
in the list of Bankrupts), discovered t,, be .3
constant freqdenter of the gaining houses in the vi.•'
cinity of Pall. Mull, his partners insisted on his tip'
flog the concern. This he reused to do unless they
would give a general release from all, debts 0 ing b/
the house, and from what he owed to the home.'-''
By the books, tie appealed to have over-draw n his
.privat.e account to only. a trifling ampont, therefore
the oalanc.f required was given, and he quitted the
concerti.. In short tiphh. examining the
books, some suspicions Circ.iitiStanCeti appeared ;
consequence of which the remaining partners •were
induced to look ininutriy into the accounts,
wheal
.to their great surpriz,:, they found that bills to. the
amount of rubrelhan 49,0001. had been erunezzleti,
and some of the books which would' leld to the
proof take') away. A considerable number of the.
hills ate traced to have been received for, the ci de'
want p inner by private persons. Search is malii"goi
after Ithe others, and the assignees have resolved te-
institute a strict and minute inquiry into the vib°,',
transaction—the release having been given only ;t9't
-the priv,te debt of the partyo the concerti, and 0°
fur the sums that were embezzled. -
