FOR THB SUN:

MR. EDITOR—Mr. WATSON has not thought
proper to notice the statement which I made in
your Paper, of his proffer of selling hi; silence. If
he thinks, by shirking the charge, to prevent its
publicity, he is grievously mis:aken. In common
cases, such forbearance would be a sufficient con-
fession but I have no points of honour to settle
with a Radical : toy object is, not to make Mr.
WArson acknowledge my assertion, but to ex-
pose him to the multitude as a needy speculator,
who calculated on making his own market of their
credulous folly. As often as he puts himself
forward, se often will I reiterate this charge;
until the Radicals themselves have extinguished
him. When they next meet him, I hope they
will put him to the question; in the mean time,
any of those persons may learn my name at your
Office. I am, Sir,

Your obedient Servant,

Nor. 6.


TRyt THEATRE.—As the dramatic talents of the
day do not produce any striking novelties, the
Managers very properly revive those pieces which
afforded amusement to our ancestors ; and on this
principle the old Comedy of Love makes a Man, or
The Fep's Fortune, was brought forward on Sa-
turday last at Covent Garden Theatre. The part
of Carlos was assumed by Mr. C. KEMBLE, who
with great judgment and effect displayed the stn.
(lions gravity of the Scholdr in the earlier scenes,
and the animation of the Lover in the others. The
part is not very Conspicuous in itself, and depends
in a great degree on the talents of the performer,
which en this occasion were exerted with such,
success as most have satisfied the author, if be
could have attended the representation. JuNes
was not less successful in
.C/odio, which he sup-
ported with that indefatigable gaiety which marks
all his performances. FAnitax was admirably hu-
morous in Don Lcwis, but lie certainly gave it
too much loaded with years for the spirit and
activity which the part requires: Angelina, El-
vira, and Louisa, were assigned to Miss FooTts,
Miss BRUNTON, and Mrs. FAUCIT, and the me-
rits of their respective performances proved the
propriety of the allotment. We conceive that the
Morning Critics have been too severe in their
treatment of the play itself. CoLLEv CIBBER was
a sound judge of theatrical effect, and was well
acquainted with human life : he was unjustly
treated by the contemporat y wits, but if they had
directed their attacks against the freedom of his
lite, instead of attempting to brand him with dul-
ness, they would less have deserved censure them-
selvos, tur,he was really a man possessed of con-
siderable talents, as well as of knowledge and
experience. He wrote to the taste of the times
in which he lived ; and if he lived now in the vi-
gour of his powers, there are few that could pre-
sume to contend with him, as he doubtless would
have adapted his productions to the taste of the
present day, if he were not indeed rather likely
to improve it.

The reconciliation between Mr. 1-1. Timms and
Mr. C. KENIBLE, brought about by the kind inter-
mediation of the Marquess of WoEcusTett, has
not beon quite correctly stated. We understand
I hat llr, thEEts considered some words of Mr.
KENIBLR, spoken it) the Green-room, the uiAlit
before the open rupture, though not ahldresse:l to
him, as intended for his ear, The substance of
the words was—that the profession of an Actor
was become a had one, and he lamented that he
belonged to it—or words to that effect. This Mr.
HARRIS interpreted as meaning that the profes•
shut was rendered disagreeable or bad, owing to
his management ; and, wider this impression, be
was irikatcd .n the warm language which ended
in the outrage of which the public has heard, but
which, upon reflection, he lamewed. In a con-
versation ,T it?) Lord WORCRSTER he expressed his
anxiety For a reconciliation, and wished his Lord-
ship to hr a mediator between them. To this the
Noble Lord wilts some reluctance consented, and
he,;prevailed on Mr. K FOIBLE to leave the matter
also to him. Accordingly the parties met' in Mr.
FA WCHT'S WOW at the Theatre (not in the Green-
room), and 'bete Mr. HARRIS made Mr. KEN:BLit
a warns and full apology, after which Mr. KEN -
BLE declared that the words spoken by him, rela-
tive to the profession, were not intended by him
as an insult, either to Mr. HARRIS or his brother
actors.

The latter did not' consider it as such,
811 C as Mr. HARRIS had so interpreted them, lie
was sorry that he had used theirs. Thus the mat-
ter was settled, and the kind conduct of Lord
WORCESTER on the occasion lots been highly
praised by all.—(Morning Chronicle.)
