they profited by the darkness of the night to escape.
I cannot wait to collect the details, or assign the

in bringing forward alate inquiry in the-HOUseot
Commonse and to censure the Sherd of the county .
for not having called a meeting for this, palpoSe,
pursuant to the Requisition of a number of Free-
holders, though a counter-requisition from a much

guislitod and respedable characters, had induced him
to decline the former requisition, its order to prev. ht

Atier a shrift debate on this point,. the fi`rst 'Resolu-

finEtly. Considering the nature•of Mr. WARDI/E's
cialiis to popularity, and the means by which it was
acquired, we cannot but feel souse surprise that so
many respectable characters should have attended a
Meeting for such a purpose. The chief speakers
were, 'Sir H. NIILDMAY, Colonel BURGOYNE, Mr.
HoLT WHITE, Mr. W. Sll4lll-1, Mernber for Nor 7
wich, and Mr. WESTERN; Member tOr Mald 1).777
Mr. H. WHITE, in toe c• urse of his speech, cast
.a
retie& r)ti on Mr. BURKE and the Earl of 'Sat.kilix.,
which we should not have expected. He inti.liated
that the former, in order to divert public attention
from Parliamentary Reform, had talked of ceco-
nom), and had taken credit to himself tor the de-
ception,; and that , the Earl of SELKIRK was now
doing the same.—As Mr. Bo Rice was no Proprietor
of what are called " Rotten Boroughs," he could
have ao motive for praCtising such a deception, and
the memory of so great a man ought to have been
.exemi)ted from such a charge.----As to the Earl of
SRLKIRX; he has submitted his reasons to the public
for having changed his sentiments. with respect to
Parliamentary Reform, for whiCh lie was once a
strenuous advocate ; and, those reasons are so cogent
and convincing, that the Noble Lord ought to have
been equally free from the imputation. of improper
motives.—Whets the Resolutions were carried, the
Meeting adjourned to the County Room, where the
best part of the business of the day took.place,. in a
good dinner. .

Titestaa.—After the representation of The
Holley Moon on Saturday last, at Mr. CoLmAN's
Theatre, 'the new Farce entitled Killing no Murder,
having overcome all impediments, was brought for-
ward. The obje& of this Farce was principally to
shew the niimitio skill and versatility of NIATIIEWS,
and the naivete of LISTON, and, they both exerted
their respettive powers with .great success, parti-
cularly the, former, who had the larger scope. In
addition so his other talents, MAiliews also dis-
. played the powers of a Ventriloquist, and vety much
amused the company. The piece is not more ex-
travagant or improbable than many others of the
same kind, and if it were not whimsical to it§ejf,
and rendered highly diverting by the two cOrnic
performers chiefly employed in it, it would have
strong claims to public prclection for it musical
merit. The piece is written by Mr. Tntonoaa
Hoox, and the overture and new airs are cotnposed
by teat respectable member of the musical world,
his lather. A very numerous audience gave the
Farce she full sandian of its approbation.
This moraing about five hundred of the flank
