HAY MARKET THEATRE.
The performances at this theatre, last evening, were ho-
noured by the presence of her Majesty, who seemed highly to
enjoy Peake's new comedy of The Sheriff oj the County. We
rejoice to find that her Majesty has of late frequently ho-
noured this theatre by her presence. Her Majesty not only
loves, but understands the drama, and it is because she under-
stands and appreciates it, and is enabled to discriminate be-
tween good and bad acting, that it is a great thing for any
theatre to be honoured by her patronage. Were that pa-
tronage indiscriminately bestowed, its value would be greatly
lessened, but while that patronage is bestowed liberally it is
bestowed also most judiciously, while the dramatic mediocri-
ties are very properly left to find their level. Excellence in
every walk of the dramatic art is certain of Royal patronage,
and where has that patronage been more judiciously or more
worthily bestowed than on the talented Lessee of " Ile Little
Theatre" in the Haymarket?

CROMER.—EatIy on Sunday morning last an ex-
tensive fall of the cliff took place at the Signal Station Hill,
near the Lighthouse, spreading itself far and wide upon
the beach, and covering several acres of ground. The
cliff, at this spot, attains an elevation of about 250 feet,
and is composed principally of unstratified white and
yellow sand resting upon clay. Hundreds of persons have
been attracted to the spot to witness its huge intermingled
masses rent into lofty pinnacles and deep ravines by the
overwhelming pressure of the subterraneous waters collected
in the caverns of the -cliff, and presenting the idea of an
earthquake, but without its concomitant 119iT9P.-2Vorgrich

LAW INTELLIGENCE.
ROLLS' COURT, Fill. 28.
NOVAILLE V. FLIGHT.
This suit was instituted for the specific performance of the
purchase of certain premises situate in the Belvidere-read, in
the borough of Southwark. The cause formerly came before,
the Court upon exceptions to the Master's report, when it
was decided that the plaintiff could not make a marketable
title to the premises, in consequence of the original lessee not
having built the number of houses which he stipulated by his
covenant to erect. The cause now came on upon further
directions, and after some discussion, •
Lord LANGDALE directed that the. deposit should be re-
turned with interest at 4/. per cent., and dismissed the bill
with costs.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, Feb. 28.
(Sittings at Nisi Prins, before Lord DENMAN, and a Common
Jury.)
PATTENDEN V. HUDSON.
This case arose out of an execution made by the defendant
on the goods of a person, named Pollard, supposing that
they belonged to him ; but it appeared that the goods
in question were bought by the plaintiff, who now
brought his action. The question for the jury was whether
the transaction between Pattenden and Pollard was a bona
fide one. The jury found a verdict for the plaintiff, Jess 405.,
being the amount of some goods belonging to Pollard himself,'
which were also seized by the defendant.

WORTH WALES MINERAL
RAILWAY.

The usual half-yearly meeting olthe Shareholders in
this undertaking was held yesterday, at the office of
the Company, in Moorgate• street, Dlr. W. R. Co'lett,
M.P., in the chair.

The report stated that a further extension of the line
bad been set on foot by an independent Company, viz.,
from the Ruabon terminus, by way of Oiwestry to
Shrewsbury, connecting it with the proposed line to Bir-
mingham. To meet the accession which was likely to
result to their traffic from this extension, the Committee
recommended that the necessary capital should be
provided for in the present Bill to enable them
to make the line double. The capital for this
purpose, and for the branches from the main line,
would rt quire an addition to the present capital
of about 90,000/, which the Directors proposed
to provide for in the Dill, by the creation of 9,000 ad•
ditional shares of 10/., which wou'd admit of one share
to each holder of a 201. share, and one share for every
two 10L extension shares. A contract had been entt red
into for completing the works of the roadway and stations
for 72,0291., as well as fur the rails for the permanent
way. The receipts, had amounted to 2t3,,800/,, 4tiOdu
ukr 1.),U Pki. U 5. Z.••
balance in hand amounting to 12,885/. 16s. 11. The
report was moved from the chair an I adopted.
