TIIE THEATRE.--The New Musical .0110,
grafted on the Comedy of Twelfth Night, was
again well attended yesterday evening at Covent
Garden Theatre. It was, of course, to be ex-
pected, that some friends of THE QUEEN, in the
Upper regions, would raise their voices, in con-
sequence of the Legislative decision of yester-
day, and accordingly cries of THE QUEEN,"
were soon heard. Other persons called out " TUE
KING for ever," and " God save the King."—
At length the storm grew loud, and ABBOTT
came forward to allay it, but could not be
heard amidst the tumult. The Vocal Per-
formers then gave " 1-4.1 e Britannia," in the
hope, no doubt, that Patriotism would triumph
over Party. But they were obliged to re-ap-
pear, and sing " God save the KING !" to
the chorus of which " THE QUEEN " was con-
stantly annexed by her admirers, and the spirit
of turbulence at last gave way to the general de-
sire of peace and diversion. On such occasions
the Managers should adopt the legislative doctrine
of expediency, rather than prolong the reign of
Conimotion.
