A NOVEL METHOD OF EVADING THE
LAW.-Lawrence's company of comedians having, a short
time since, announced their intention of opening the De.
vonport Theatre, their proceedings were put a stop to by
legal process, the house not being licensed. Determined,
however, not to be put down, they tried their hand at a
stratagem, and on Monday they set forth in the bills of the
day as follows :—" Theatre Devonport.—By permission.
__Messrs. Lawrence beg most respectfully to acquaint
their friends and the public in general, that the above
Theatre will be opened on Monday, Dec, 2d, as a confec-
tioner's shop, with an excellent assortment of cakes, at
different prices. Those who purchase theta will be ad-
mitted to wisness a theatrical productiohich ill be
performed by professional persons, for neithen, w r
hirew, gain,
or reward, but for amusement. The seller of the cakes
assures the inhabitants that they are of the first quality,
and likewise the amusement first rate. The proprietor
this evening will allow the purchaser of the cakes to wit-
ness his friends perform the favourite meo-dratua called
Ella Rosenburg.' After which, an entirely new farce,
called the Barber Baron.'—Best cakes, 25.; seconds, ls.;
