very numerous audience. rlll ro, howl°vt r, so
Well patronized and so adthirably supported.by the
Performers, that we expea them

" Chariot-like, to kindle as thoi run."
• The time of Mrs. BIM-TM/TOWS arrival is not Cer-

Concerts.
KING, the Master of the Ceremonies, had a very.
crowded audience at his Ball on Monday last. Ho
is a deserving and obliging Charaater. His Benefit
was indeed the largest ever known 4 this place.
STEPHEN KtmaLs is engarl for six nights at
our l'heatre. Ho is much in favour with the higher
and critical visitors ; but perhaps our Manager will
find it necessary to start a new girl or a toy in the
course of the season, to suit the childish taste of,
the age.
We are likely to have more than our due,propor-
tion of visitors this year, and most of them of a se-
leiand elegant description.

His Royal Highness the, DUKE of GLOUCESTER,
we are extremely happk to announce, myas much
better yesterday than he had, been' during any far-
mer day of the present. week. Although His Royal
highness is still seriously indisposed, yet very con-
fident exnedations are entertaintA of his recovery.

A ill t.arly lionr Yestertray ttjoriiing, the
neynienTaiforA, •;icciised ofbeing concerned in the
riot at the ,Kri iy-:iarket.Theatce on the .
evenino-, were brought to. the Office, As. at a time,
froin. the 13rown Bear Pliblic-hoese
The first Witness exaa,iied was Joines 1V instou,
a Proprietor of the The;vire„ who ttited, that on
Wednesday lie received two anonymous threatening
letters, saying-, if the .Pi6ee called The 'Tailors ;
A Tragedy for Warm. lreallier, advertised to be act-
ed for Dowton's Benefit; was perfermal on
Thursday evening, 700 Tailors Would attend to op-
pose-it ; and there would be 1000 more to assist, if
necessary. On Thursday morning, lie received a
similar letter, but in more violentlanguage, and it
was signed « DEATU." skewed the letters to
Mr. Dowton, and it WaS Z-IgTOCd; that if any violent
opposition should be offered, the :Piece should not
be a&ed. In 'a- short time after the "doors were
:opened in the evening, the Pit and Galleries were
filled-and it was very retnarkable, that in the two
Galleries, there were only two women. As soon as
the curtain drew up, noise began, and every thing
was-opposed by the audience, but principally by the.
Galleries. Mr. Palmer, Jun. and Mr. 'Alston, by
his desire, endeavOured, in Vain, to get a bearing.
/hey exerted themselves to assure the -Audience,
that if any part of the Performances announced for
that evening were obje&ionable, particularly the
lattq Piece, entitled The Tailors ; or, A Tragedy for
Wail* Weather; it should not be perfOrMed, and the
Farce'of The Village Lawyer should he substituted.
No answer could be obtained to the proposition.
The Performers attempted twice 'to go on with the
Comedy of The Birth-Day, but in vain The op-
position continued very violent, and there-appeared
to be a determination in the Audience to prevent
nny performance frthu going on that evening ;` and
having been informed by the doOr-keepers of the
Theatre, that the doors were surrounded by a great
concourse of people, he determined on. sending thr.
Mr. GRAMAM, tle-! Magistrate.
James West, the Aessenger, said; .he was stand-
ing. behillid the scenes when Mr. Dowrost :went on
to play in The. Birth-Day, and saw' a pair Of scissars,
fall near hirn, but could not tell from what part Of
the house they came; Mr. Dowtoti picked them up,
and went to .the front of the Stage; and ofii:red
twenty •guineas reward for the apprehensicu Of the
&ender.

-Audience in' a great uproar; and'from the ebierva-;
tion he waS able' to make, there appeared a' dercrini-,
Alation in them not to let the.pc riot-malice go on.—
Understanding they had proceeded ta ;acts of
by throyting .seisstrs, •he reifueSted the
Manager to recommend' to him ,••.i!: or eight'stout
able men -hel.-ming to the 'T'le whUntt he
would sy,-ear in to be special Cow,tar)les, which
accordingly done. He then dir....-te l them td be

various parts, .as many as conldbe colle&e4 fron't
their duty at so short, a notice. He dirated
the Officers to jkip the peace, and t() intij
cusiody all such persons its they lonia ri:Auudy
posed and apirared determined to interrupt the per 7
tbrmatice. He went on the outside of the Theatre
among, the crowd; and found the doers completely
blocked • up, and there ,appeared every dispoOion
among the populace to break in; in consequence of
which, he sent a Letter to the'Commanding Officer
of the Life Guards Oit duty at the Efors'e Guard},
requesting him to be in readiness, with a full guard of
Men. The Officer, with a numerous. party, ar jved
'irt a short tithe after in the liamaiket. He then
-considered himself sufficiently prepared against any
violence, and advised the Manager to peNeven• in pro-
4,+eding with The Tailors, nod other perfOrmai
advertised, which they accordingly did, and the Pri7.
• soners were apprehended for joining in a riotous op-
positioh, and"were conveyed to St. ,Martili'sWatch
Mr. Dok.vton,. the ComediAn, said; since he had
:advertised the I.:nteri:Jinment called l'he Teillor..+.; or,
• Tragedy,fir ll'iitMlP'eather, for his Benefit, he had
received zt, great number of threatening and impu-
dent Letters, seine -anonymous, and some with the,.
parties' names one of them was sighed 14V a into
nalned Riley, who brought the .Letter himself, and
.he sai.vitint, He made use of so many tlirtats„and
-was so impudent, that he had lamented since he
had not secured him. Another Letter was dated
from one of the Journeyinen Tailors' HOuSes of Call,
called the Fountain Tavern, in Oare-Street,
Clare-
Market, and signed by the Clerk, as :Ilya& of the
Society; Wheu he was upon the Stage, in the
char4ll.er of qaptain Bertram, ill The Birth Day,
tailor's thimble and a pair of scissars were thrown
at him the latter alarmed some tadios in the Stzige-
bnr much, that ltr left the Suige at their request.

EX-PARTE OLIVER AND OTHERS, IN THE MATTER OF
85.tyrn, A palmattrr.
This was a Petition of some of the Creditors, pray-
ing. that Mr. Lingard,. who had been appointed
Assignee, should be removed; and that he shonktbe
obliged to take, the property. and concern of the
nankrupt aca valuation which been made :by
Mr. Massey, and approved of by Mr, Lingard.
Itommvi, on the part , of the Petitioners,
stated from sevoratattidavits,;thar at the time. of. the
Banktuptcy of Mr. Smith' who was a considerable
cotton manufiteturct, Mr. Lingard was a creditor to
a large amount ; and 'having got possession of the,
premises Oectipicd" by the -BankrOpt,,, commenced
worlcing in the fadory, using all the machinery,. and
applying the profits of the, busities to his own use.
A meeting .of the Creditors- was c4illcicl. ; and Mr.
Lingard, being creditor to a largioamount than any
of the others, was chosen Wit', ASSignOe. Shortly
after this, he had the goods valued ; and sent, about
to the diff4entCreditors to tell them, that the efreas
of the Bankrupt, if sold, would not produce more
than four shillings and sixpence in the pound ; but
it they Were Wining to let him the concern, he
would piy them six and eightpence.. This offer
was, refused by the Creditors, and Mr. Lingard still
cofitinued to carry on the business in the manufac-
tory, formerly the property of the Bankrupt; apply!.
ing the profits to his own use, without ever acconnt7
ing with the Creditors, or even advertising the ma-
, ehinery'or premises to be sold. This Petition Wris,
theteforepreferred, praying that he might be re-,
that he should be compelled to take the
premises and machinery at the
,valuation made by
Mr. Massey, who had been erhployed by Lingarcl,
and froth 'whose valuation it appeired, that, instead
of four shillings
:and sixpence, in t.h,e pound, the
Bankrupt's property would pay 14:i.. Mr. lI4),Ntit.LY,
eonehtde.d by saying, that Mr. Lingard had noc, of-
feic.d. to giVOUp tho property, aitd to account for leis
profits, provided the Creditors would allow hint for
the loses he had sustained , at the *aide tune stating
that he has lost upirards. of I :.!,000.1. The Learned
Genilenran was convinced, that the Court would see
into the reasonableness of this. Petition, and would
grant the prayer of it.
Mr. Iltctra.ans, on the Other side, denied ihAt there
was any groVind to grant the i)ray'et of this Petition.

there Was no disagreement at the Bar about rentov-
ing 74r, Lingarcl„ as it was iMpossible be could Te-

From all the circumstances of the case, - it was eve

Thursday afternoon, about one o'clock, a most
melancholy accident happened hi St. Jaines's-street,
le4iding from Elackfriars Road towards the Marsh-
gate. -1A: woman, with a child about 12 months old
in her arms, was jammed between a cart-wheel and
the wall in such a manner,ihat both her arms were
broken; and the child fell under the feet of the horse,
which, together with one 'of the Wheels, went over
it, and killed icon the spit. She was taken in that
state to Guy's Hospital, and, to udcl to her inistbr-
tune, she had =Other child which lay deadat borne.
at the tune. .No blame can -be attributed to the
carter, being on the right,sideof the horse, and nut
having seen the woman.
James Wood was within these few days coin-,
witted to Glasgow GJol, to stand his trial for -itn-
posing, on and defrauding several Recruiting Parties
cif money, by swetwing, :4.his attestation, "that he"
was whole and sound, while he was, ron inspeetion,
discovered to have a still elbow joint.
