PATRIOTIC ORATION
DLL 1 VER Z 1:3 AT THE LONDON TAVEAP4 PEE. 9, Itt2.

Honest CHARLIS, very anxious to make THE CLut merry,
Rose again and requested they'd drink his friend SHERRY.
A Toast, so well fitted to raise Party Glee
Was receiv'd with a shout, and went round " three times

tbree."
On which Master SHERRY, to keep up the ball,
Cast his eyes shrewdly round, and thus humbn'd them all.

" Having lately the honour to speak from THE CHAIR,
My thoughts I with freedom presum'd to declare,
And I now should but merely to thank you arise,
Were not eserours abroad—for those rumurt are lies.
What I said at the time I allude to, I find
Is perverted by people, malicious or blind.
I find I was thought, and my nature it shocks,
To reflect on some friends of my friend Mr. Fox.

I appeal to Tits C Lug, if my tongue was so rude—
With abuse I can never to such men allude.
I know that such men are all steady as rocks,
And will never desert their old Head, Mr. Fox.
On such men I never can cast a refleEtiL 1,
They are dear to my heart, and shall keep its afreaion.

" But I will not disfranchise myself of a right
To place some I could name in a different light.
Whene'er an Apostate is found in TILE CI. US,
I shall always be ready to give him a rub.
By the rules of our CLut we can always dire
To exculpate himself, the man we susped,
And I doubt if we are not a parcel of fools
For not often reviving those excellent rules.
If we had, I may venture to say, we should try
Many renegade charaders, noble and high,
Who rise4ike a Butterfly, sprung from a grub,
And, pouncing in place, with contempt view our CLUB.
Yet perhaps with the rules we had better dispense,
For, at least, we avoid an evasive defence,
If a man in his heart is no longer a Whig,
Let him go when he will, we should not care a fig.
We old Dogberry-'s rule may apply to each Scrub,
4 Let him shew what he is, and steal out of our CLUB.'

" No defections will ever corrupt Mr. Fox,
He will still be the same, and a Whig Orthodox.
His Parliament friends may get thin in their ranks,
But we'll treat them as merely a parcel of blanks ;
For all their manoeuvres he cares not a pin,
And THE CLUB will support him through thick and through

thin.
His Cause we'll still cherish in spite of such Blocks—
'Tis the same—Fox and FREEDOM, or FREEDOM and
Fox !" •

THE THEATRE.—By command Of THEIR MA-
lisins, the Comedy of The Poor Gentleman, and
the Pantomime of Harlequin's Almanack, were re-
presented last night at Covent-Garden Theatre.—
The House was crowded at an early hour, and the
Royal Visitors were received with the warmest
marks of loyalty and affetion. THEIR MAJESTIES
were accompanied by four of the PR INC ESSES. The
Vocal Performers, as usual, came forward to gratify
the Audience with those loyal strains which are al
ways highly acceptable to the feelings of English-
men. His MAJESTY looked very well in his mili-
tary attire. The dramatic representations went off
with spirit, and excited great applause.

ROYAL ACADEMY.—The Members of this In-
stitution assembled on Wednesday last, for the
eledion of three Academicians from the list of As-
sociates, when the following Gentlemen were chosen,
viz. WILLIAM TURNER, Painter, in the room of
FRANCIS WHEATLEY, Esq. deceased ; J oH N SOANE,
Archited, in the room of WILLIAM TYLER, Esq.
deceased ; and CHARLES Rossi, Sculptor,' in the
room of WILLIAM HAMILTON, Esq. deceased..
As there was a considerable majority in favour of
the above-mentioned Artists, the President declared
them duly eletted Royal Academicians.
FASHIONABLE ADJUSTMENT. The difference
between Mrs. P. of trim. con. memory, and Sir F. S.
which was to have come before the Gentlemen of.
the Long Robe last Trinity Term, has been adjust-
ed in a more amicable manner. Sir F.S. had allow-
ed to the Lady 4001. per annum, ever since the event
of the aaion brought by the injured husband (who
obtained a verdict for 10,0001.), against the son
of the Baronet, about the year 1790, when the
Lovers fled to Boulogne. This sum had been
regularly paid till lately ; but, in consequence, as
it is said, of an infringement of one of the clauses
of the bond, payment having been refused, the
Lady threatened to bring her aftion. The affair
is thus settled :—Sir F. S. has given Mrs. P. a
bond for the payment of 2001. per ann. ; the son
has also given a bond for 2501. per ann. ; and the
Lady, contrary to the tenor of the former bond, is
at full liberty to marry again.

Some time since a file of Bank Notes, which had
been paid, and the Cashier's name torn off, were
stolen from the Bank. One of these bills (for 3001.)
to which the name of one of the Cashiers was
wafered, came to the Bank, and was paid before the
fraud was discovered. This Bill has been traced to
a person who was a Clerk in the Bank, but now
keeps a Coffee-house in the neighbourhood of
Drury-lane ; and in his house the rest of the bills
were found. The man has been apprehended.

Saturday last, as Captain HARRISON, of the brig
Neptune, lying in the Humber, was going on hoard
with three men and two boys, the boat in which
they were, ran foul of the cable, and striking against
the brig, went in two: one boy on the bow of the
boat saved himself by grasping the cable; two of
the men clung to one hail of the boat, and another
to an oar, till they were taken up : but unfortu-
nately the Captain 4nd the other boy were
drowned.

The three Irish footpads that were apprehended
last Sunday night by the Police Patrole on the Ux-
bridge road, and who are supposed to be part of a
most desperate gang who have for a long time in-
fested that part of the country, yesterday uhder-
went a re-examination before Sir RICUARDRD,
at Bow-street, when they were positively identified
by a Gentleman stopped and robbed on the Uxbridge
road last Sunday evening. The prisoners were sully
committed for trial.

LAW REPORT.

COURT OF KlNG's BENCH, rtn.u.

Ma. MANLEY said, he had instrthions to men.
lion to the Court a motion which he had to make the
next Term. The reason for the course he took was
this—The motion was to be against a Magistrate,
for leave to file a criminal information, and it was
a rule that no such motion could be made, until
six days had elapsed after notice had been given to
a Magistrate; this notice had-only been given two
days ago, so that he could not move it this Term ;
he mentioned it now, because it would be other-
wise an answer to his motion next Term, that the
Term had passed over without the motion. The
motion he intended to make was, for leave to file
a criminal information against a Magistrate for
conviding a party without examining evidence in
the presence of that party. The conviaion, upon
the face of it, was correEt, because it stated that
the evidence was fairly taken, but it was contrary
to the fart.

The Court asked—When the convktion took
place ?
Mr. MANLEY said, on the 4th of November.
The Court said, it was too late to come there
with such an application as this.
Mr. MANLEY said, the party would thus be left
without remedy.

The Court said, he was not, for that he might
prefer his bill of indictment.--Rule refused.

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL moved for a writ of
Habeas Corpus, to be direaed to Dr. Wood, of the
Town of Newcastle, a Physician, commanding him
to bring up the body of George Robson, confined
under his care as a lunatic. This he moved on an
affidavit which stated, that this person was de-
tained from purely malicious motives, but for no
adequate reason. This man was the Muster Master of
a Volunteer Corps, which he mustered, and on Sun-
day the 13th of December he attended divine ser-
vice; and persons who had known him for thirty
years swore, that he never, to their knowledge,
was affiiaed with any insanity whatever. Dr.
Wood stated, that this person " had some incor-
reaness in his perceptions." Now, the ATTORNEY
GENERAL. said, if every man who had any in-
correaness in his perceptions, was to be a Lunatic,
the number of Lunatics would be considerable.

Mr. Justice LE BLANC said, that this case had
been before him in the course of the Vacation.
He gave the other side an opportunity of consider-
ing the affidavit. They did not come to him again
until the beginning of the Term, when it. ceased
to be in his power to grant the Habeas Corpus, and
therefore he direled them to move the Court fOr
the writ. The Gentleman who attended on the
other side, had the affidavit put into his hands,
with a view that if it should be satisfaetory to
him, , the man might have been brought up without
any further trouble.
The ATTORNEY GENERAL said, that this Phy-
sician retained the custody of this man. He was
committed under the Warrant of two Justices, di-
rated to Churchwardens, &c. The commitment
was under the authority of the A& of Geo. 11. pro-
viding for the custody of those who are furiously
mad, and dangerous to go abroad. The Dodoes
Affidavit was, " that this man was not sane, as
far as false perceptions constitute insanity." It
was true, this man had had a quarrel with a Gen-
tleman of Fortune, who had threatened to exhibit
articles of the Peace against him. These Medical
Gentlemen of Newcastle, on whose authority this
man was taken as a lunatic, certified, " that he
was in some respeets, under the influence of false
perceptions ; that he had taken out irregularly a
licence to kill game." Perhaps this was the new,
way to get rid of a poacher. They stated also that
he had talked a great deal of the beauty of his gar-
dens, whereas he had but one, and that an indiffer-
ent one. This again was a mere bounce concerning
his property, which was noz peculiar to this man,
for, the ATTORNEY GENERAL said, it applied to
the temper, arid sometimes the discourse of some of
his friends both in that Court and out of it. In a
word, this was a man who was, for the last thirty
years perfeetly sane, to the knowledge of his
neighbours, charged as a lunatic, for no reason,
at least for no good one, and therefore he moved
for this Habeas. Corpus to bring him up, in order
that he might have his liberty, of which he was
now maliciously and most illegally deprived.
Mr. Justice GRosE said, that this Case as dis-
closed in the Affidavits, was a very plain one, and
instead of a Rule to shew Cause, he thought the
Writ ought to issue, and in order that there should be
no delay in the matter, it should be made returnable
before a Judge at Chambers.—Writ granted.

Several Writs of Mandamus were moved for, and
obtained, commanding the Officers of the Borough
of Oakhampton, to admit certain persons to the
freedom of that Borough, who set forth the customs
of the Borough, and who say they are entitled to
their freedom, &c.

In the course of discussing the merits of a War-
rant of Attorney, given by aim ignorant Farmer
who could not write or read, authorising a Writ of
Possession to be taken out, and himself turned out
of his Farm, &c.

Mr. Justice GRosE took occasion to observe,
that the Court would always be desirous of looking
into Warrants of Attorney. They were executed
sometimes, indeed often, under miserable circum-
stances, and appeared to be almost always proofs of
one side availing itself of the misery of the other ;
so that they could not be examined too minutely,
&c. In this Case, upon the bringing the rent,
which was stated at 701. into Court, the Defend-
ant was to be restored to the possession of his Farm,
and the rest of the Case was referred to the Master.
