beard, but they `were all fititless; and., after ,an in-
t:liyislual who had turbulently interfered., but on
which side it was 'difficult to ascertain,' had been
turned .that of the room, the Chairman gave,—
" May brow-beating Judges ever be oppOsed byen-
lightened and impartial Juries ;" and, afterwards,
" The Bill of Riglitc„ and condign. punishment 'to
those Magistrates who' infringe' it by requiring ex-
cessive Bail." A tumult of applause Marked both
of these tOasts, and the latter was drank-with " three
times three." •• • ,
The Chairman then stated,.that having given all
the toasts, which had been -set down on paper, he
b gg,:d leave to give tine trom the impulse of his'
own feelings, and therefore, though Mr. KEMBLE
and Mr. HARRIS had been included in a previous
this Meeting was intended for the enres-.
si n if every liberal feeling towards individuals, as
Y. 0.1 as to the cause, he trusted that ttie'company
Would readily , join him in 'thinking the health of
Mr. KEMBLE and Mr. HARRIS by name: Nothing
could' be more liberal than the, 'manner in which
this toast was. received, and it was drank with ydry
gri-at applause.'
Mr. KHISIEj.E returned thanks, and observed, that
.though -ne had &auk the healths of the company
before, yet he was glad of the opportunity of doing it
Agaiit, • because he coact not have that pleasure Lou
often.

Mr. HARRIS also thanked them for the honour
they, had' don-_, him. -He was highly pleased that
they had though'. him wo-rthy of it, and particutariy
glad that he was present at this dinner'; becase he
hoped it wouldbe the rnean3 of preventing the pos-
sibility of any luNre-ditlitrence bet Wean the public
and the Proprietors ot*COverit.garden Theatre. ✓

Great applause attended both of these acknow--
.'ledgments, and the Chairman soon atter gave' the,
folloVving as his final roast,-.---" The cau,e of civil
and religious libel ty all over the world ;" ,a toast too
interesting to inalakind to be passed' over without
`great'aplaus.e. The Chairman, with Messrs.. kzsl-
- and HAllitlS, then retired; and were cheered
With warm a,4lause as they severally•lott the room.
11r. So ii took the chair afterwards, and the.whole
of the day was pased general good-hbraour; and
every appearance of such amity hetwetJi the parties,
as gave no trace of former hostility.

TUE Ti4EA±RE.—The admirable Drama of As
You Like It was last night represented at the Ly-
teutn, before a numerous and elegant audience.
The only novelty in the performance was the ap:-
pearance of .MATHEWs in the part of Touchstone, and
lie supported it with great spirit, and with a.qUaint.
bets of manner that proved he fully understood the
ch,traeter in all its essential qualities and relationi:
He was very well received. Miss DUNCAN was-by
ito means sudcessfUl in Rosalind. There was a ge-
neral languor in her manner, except in the first

scene wit-h, Orlando, in which, she was much too
forwardly kind for a delicate female, independently
of the high notions which she might be supposed to
entertain 03 aPribcess. Miss RAY might be said to
walk over the course in Celia. She hardly made
any effort, au.il spoke with a kind of childish whin-,
jngsimplicity. Hot.titim would have appeared to
'm'ore advantage in Orlando, if he had been less soli7
citnus-to prevent any disptes between his legs, for
wlieti one Moved, the' other invariably retired, eft.:.
attly illustrating the 'Couplet Of CHURCHILL :
" One' leg, 'a-S
if 'suspicious of his brother,
" Desirous bernt'd TO run away from Outlier."

;--.-WaobewtoN had all' big iAtlal judgment in
Jaques, and POwELL gave ,the par: of Adam-with'
great t eciitig and effeat. Mr. Honig would have de-
served Inure applause in Amiens, if he had not in-
. jure.' the simple melody of " Blow, blow thou win-
ter's wind," by flourishing divisions quite in opposi-
tion to the sentiments of the poet. Perhaps, however,,
he considered those sentiments -as hardly worth
,notice,",or intended to shew something of representa.-
live Music, by imitating the various turns andshiit-
ings,of the " winter's wind." ' v.

We should hate regretted that Mr. BRANDON did
not partake in the .general oblivion of pagt hostilities
yesterday; at the RecOnciliation Dinner, if the 6bair-
man had not given a sufEcient reason for avoiding
the introdudion of any topic that might have en-
dangered the least difference of opinion on such an
occasion. But as the .:Chairman stated that as the
only reason, and said nothing which implied that the
leaders. of .the party who proposed and arranged,the.
dinner, had any objeetion to the restoration of Mr.
ERA NOON', it may fairly be inferred that they retain',
no resentment against him ; but on the contrary,
that they thought they rather _ assisted his cause•
by not submitting it to the decision of a mixed
company, and thatthey are too liberal to stand in
the way of an old and faithful sCrvant, whose only
fault was an excess of zeal.

A Melancholy instance of the fatal effects of in-
ordinate passion took place on Wednesday night at
a house in Leicester-fields. A young Lady, 17,
years of age, a native cif Paris,- but who bad re-
, ceived her education in England, and who is de-
scribed; to us as a most beautiful, elegant, and ac-
complished creature, put an end to her existence by
poison in the phrenzy of unrequited love. , She had
resided for about two months at the 'house of a Lady
in St. Martin's-street, and bad become so deeply
enamoured of. a British Officer,
,that -the idea of
being sligl4ted distracted. her understanding; and she
took an immense dose of opium. The desperate
act was discovered. too-late for remedy. Every effort
was made to save her, but in vain. She died at
seven o'clock yesterday morning. The Coroner's
Inquest will sit on the 'body this day ; end to-mor-
row we shall give the particulars. _ We understand
the detail will be truly affecting..

WESTAILIVSTEII SESSIONS, JAR. 4.

THE KING V. ISAAC WILLIAMTHW.±As.

This was ati 'charging the defend-
ant with au extreme and violent assault on Ann
"Caston.

From the testimony of the ,prosecutrix it Appeared
that' she and the defendant lived with .Mr. Wilkin-
son, an eminent carrier in Frith-street, Soho; 'she as
servant, and he as an apprentice ; that on the even-
ing of the 27th of July last; the defendant being
offended with. the prosecutrix because she would
not allow him to waste the bread in her master's
kitchen, took 'up. a leathern strap, called by the trade
"a horse's mane," and beatber, viblently round the
court-yard with it that not content with that ill
usage, he threw her down at the head of the kitchen
stairs, and dragged her by the feet down stairs into
the kitchen, where he repeated his ill-treatment
again with the leather strap, inedmuch that she has
been rendered unable to earn her livelihood) being
at this moment an out-patient of Middlesex Hos-
pital.

Her statement was .fully cofroborated by one of
the journeymen, who described the brutality with
whicb the girl was treated; and Mr. Graystock,
Surgeon, of. Wardour-street, detailed to the Court
the effeas of the' violence she suffered from the de-
fendan t.

On defendant's part the servant maid of a lodger
in the honse was called to invalidate the testimony
of the proseCutrix, by a weak attempt at tubing
in,,inuations prejudicial to her cbaraeier. In this she
not only completely failed; but was direaly contra-
dieted by another apprentice, who was called on be-
half of the defendant; the consequence whereof
was, as the Chairman remarked, that, " the mi.
dence was •all_ one way," and the ...Liu instantly
found. him guilty:

Immediately on the verdiet being pronounced,
the defendant's friends •deemed it prudent to allay
the vengeance, of the law, .and instantlyproposed
terms of compensation to the girl, who, with her
friends, acquiesced, and a sum of money being paid,
adequate'to her loss and sufferings, the Court, there
fore imposed on hima small tine, and he was dis-
charged.

THE KING V.W/LL/ADI HENRY HOLT.

This also was a case of as;ault, which arose out of
a dispute •in ordering a post Chaise at the, yard ,of a
Mr: 'Dickson. The defendant. and his friends had
been conveyed to the watch-house, and had brought
their a&ion of false iinprisondent, upon which Mr.
Dickson preferred, and.found his bill of indictment
for the assault committed on him, and on his servant.

In consideration of the pending a&ions, and un-
der the circumstances that no previous malice existed
between the parties, they came to a mutual accom-
modation to settle all matters and differences be-
tween them ,amicably, and the Court, advised there-
of, sentenced the defendant to a small fine.
