THE PANTHEON THEATRE:
This being the .day nppointed for hearing appeals,
the whole of it was occupied in bearing• an appeal
from Mr. Cundy, the proprietor of the .Pantheons
against Omni the recent convictions which have taken,
place against thb Proprietor and several Performers;
for having performed several English -Operas, not
having a licence from the Lord Chamberlain, or pa-
tent from the Crown, so to do. The present convic-
tion was one which took place at Marlborongli-street,
before N. Crinant and W. Baker, Esqrs. against Mr.
Cbndy,as Manager, for having caused the Opera'of
Vie Cabinet to be performed at the Pantheon, On the
26th of July last—The information and conviction
having been read; •
Mr. GURNEY addres4ll the Court in support of the
Conviction, and contended, that under the Act of the
10th of Geo. 11. chip. 28, an Act passed to explain
and amend an Act of the 12th of Anne, relative to
the punishment` of rogues and vagabOndss, the appel-
lent had rendered himself liable to the petialtY of *5O
by having caused to be performed the'OPeri bf The
Cabinet, in the same manner 'as that' Opera' is per-
' formed at the regular Theatref, he having nei
rity to do so. In October last the appellants beca'me'
proprietor of the Pantheon, and tinder an Act passed:
• subsequent to that above mentioned, obtained a Ma-_,
gistrate's licence to perform music and dancing; that
however, not answering the purpose fully, he applied'
to the Lord• Chamberlain fora licence- to.perform
plays. This waswefused by his Lordship, notwith, I
standing which, Mr. Cundy, on the 23d of 'July last,
pursuant to notice given by bills ported ion the streets„
• opened the Theatre with the Opera of Their.abina
upon being informed of this circumstance, the Lord'
Chamberlain sent a confidential person to him, to de-,
sire him to desist ; this, however, Mr. Cundy refused
to do, saying. he conceived he had, under the Magis-
trates' Licence, a legal right to exhibit the perform-
ances he was then exhibiting, as by a contrivance of
his, or some notable friend, he had found meant to
render the lair harmless, and to secure himself : this
was to be accomplished, according to Mr. Cundy's
idea, by ordering a.piano-forte, at different intervals
of the performance; to strike a few discordant notes ;
and thus, as if by magic, turn the dialogue into reci-
tative ; and thus he persisted in going on, till the pre-
sent and other informations were, on the evidence of
-persons whom lie should call, preferred against him.
With respect to Mr. Coady being 'the Proprietor of
• - the Theatre, if that were denied, he should be able to
' adduce abundant proof of his having acted as such,
paid the performers, directed the performances, and
even acknowledged hiiisself to be the proprietor.
-Mr. ALLEY intimated, that there was no intention
to deny Mr. Cundy being the proprietor.
Mr. Mark Lonsdale was then called, and examined
by Mr. Boliand. He depbsed, that he went to the
Pantheon Theatre on the 26th of July, and paid 3s.
admission to. the pit. The performance was The Ca-
. dints, which in dialogue, songs, Bcc. was the same as
at Covent-garden ;_ the only difference was, that at
times a person struck the chords of a piano=forte,
which, in his opinion, was an interruption, instead
of an improvement, to the performance. He went at
the request of Mr. Raymond, Stage Manager of the
Lyceum, who said it was the desire of the Lord Cham-
berlain that some person should be sent. He went se-
veral timesafterwards, and had his admission-money
'repaid him from the treasury of the Lyceum.
T. W. Marsh, Esq. first clerk to the Lcrd Cham-
berlain, proved the application of Mr. Cundy for a
licence, and the Lord Chamberlain's refusal, and also
that on the 24th of July he went, by his Lordship's
direction, to Mr. Cundy, and delivered him a, written
order from the Chamberlain not to perform any more.
He saw Mr. Cundy then, who, however, declared his
determination to go on, as he was convinced the Ma.
gistrates' Licence was sufficient authority. The wit-
ness afterwards, by the direction of the Lord Cham-
berlain, called at the Lyceum, saw Mr. Arnold and
Mr. Raymond, and desired some person should be
• sent to the Pantheon to witness the' performance.
The expence was to be paid out of the Chamberlain's
: Office. •
' hfr.Jolinscin, property-man at the Pantheon, proved
the Theatre having been open from the 2'2d of July
'to the9th of Comber.
'Mr. SCARLETT, who was specially retained on the
part of the appellant, then addressed the Court, and
eoniended that the conviction could not be supported.
It had been intimated that this proceeding against
Mr. Cundy originated in the Lord _Chamberlain's
Office, and even that the Prince Regent had interes-
ted himself in it. The respect he had for the Noble
Lord who held the office of Chamberlain, and the re-
verence he felt for the Royal Person he had named,
would not permit him to believe that this statement
was correct; indeed he was certain it could not—
for, had his Royal. Highness taken any part in it, he
would have done nothing without the advice of his
Law Officers, and the Lord Chamberlain woula not
have been advised to do that which he had no power
to do, namely, to issue an order, forbidding Mr.
- Cundy to have performances in the Pantheon, or any
other place ; for to go to the utmost of the Chamber-
lain's power, it only extended to the preventing the
performance of particular plays, and not to the shut-
. sing up the Theatr,• by au order. He might refuse
licence, but that wa a different case. The Lear-
nea .Counsel then adverted, at considerable length,
to the different. Acts of Elizabeth, Charles IL Gorge
11. and the present King, for' the regulating theatri.
cal performances, and contended that if The Cabinet
had been performed in recitative, which, for any thing
that bad been proved; except so far as the taste of
. Mr. Lonsdale went, had been the case ; then the
licence of the Magistrates w..s sufficient authority.— .
The Acts for regulating the Stage not having consi.
dered recitative as, a species of stage entertainment,
but as coming within the nieuning of a permission to
perform music and dancing. The Learned Counsel
then proceeded to take several legal objections as to
the form Of the informatiotrand conviction, and con-
- eluded by iodating • his persuasion that the convic-
tion could notbe sustained.
Mr. ALLEY followed on the same side, and took se.
veral objections to the conviction, particularly that
eSbe..Magistrates had not described themselves as de-
..scribed in their commission ; 2d, that their judg-
„agent was not complete, inasmuch as they should have
',ordered Mr. Cundy, in case he did not pay the fine,
to be imprisoned ; 30, that they had not followed the

Words of the Act in the information,having ontittpd
the word “ hirite. 4th, that the information should
have stated the defendant was not entitled by lair to
perform, as well as stating that he was unauthori)sed
by patent from the-Crown, or lkence from the Cham-
berlain ; sth, that all the Statutes on the subject un-,
repeale should have been referred to, and the word
Statutes, instead of Statute, used in the judgment ;
and, on all these grounds, he contended the convic-
tion must fall.
Mr. ADOLPHCS also followed on the same side, and,
argued strongly in support of the objections taken by
his Learned Friends.
Mt. GirartaY and Mr. BOLLARD were heard by the
Court itt !Answer to the objections,,an4 Mr. SCARLET!'
NV Reply ; after which the CHAIRMAN "Obskrired, that
,the question was one of so much importance, that
the Court would not decide it hastily, bat would take
time to consider its judgment, which would be de-
livered on a future day.

GUILDHALL.—A Smithfield drover
_was yesterday
convicted in the penalty of 20s. for cruelly treating a
bullock t, and, pleading inability to pay the same, was
sent to Bridewell for a month.
Bow4TßEET.—Yesterday a man was charged with
sending a threatening letter to the Marquis of North-
ampton. It appeared, that the Noble Marquis' had
lately purchased an estate in Warwickshire, at a pub.
lie auction, to which the prisoner stated he had a good
title, and would ,aver give up his claim but with his
life. After a long examination, he ptofessed regret
fur his conduct, and was discharged, when the Noble
Marquis agreed to pay his expences to Hoddesdon,
in Hertfordshire, ,hence he had been brought.
Two boys, nine and eleven years of age, were fully
committed, for stealing eight yards of velveteen from
a shop in Bedfordbury, into which they went, under
pretence of buying some thread • and the;r father,
' who had pledged the same, was also committed, for
receiving it with a guilty knowledge.
HATTON-GARDEN.—lnformation being received at
this Office, that Joshua Annable, a baker, residing in
Silver-street, Clerkenwell, was in the habit of selling
adulterated bread, a search warrant was granted, and
three Police Officers went to ptit it•in execution. Last
Thursday evening, having entered the house, the
baker endeavoured to prevent the officers from
searching the premises; remonstrance was in vain
he collared one officer, and pinned him up against
the wall, but was prevented from committing any
material injury. Being at length overpowered, the
officers proceeded to make search ; they found a tub
nearly filled with the refuse of mashed potatoes, which
is left after running them through a sieve, to mix the
finer part with the flour. They also fouod a quantity
of old ship salt, which generally remains, or is shook
off the beef and pork used on ship board ; this salt
he acknowledied he used for cheapness. Some of this
salt WAS mixed with water, in a large tub in the bake-
house, also a large quantity of bread, which was of
the lull weight, but or an adulterated quality. They
brought the baker before Mr. CAPPER, the sitting
Magiitrate, where the bread was also produced. The
officers swore to the charge of the assault. Mr. CAP-
PER told Lim he had a mind to fine him £lO for the
offence, which, however, he would pass over ; but for
gross imposition on the public, in selling them
such bread, he s!iould tine him in the penalty of £2O,
which he accordingly did. The baker not paying the
one, was committed for three months to the House
of Correction.

At the Sessions at Newark•upon-Trent, held on
Thursday se'nnight, a true bill was found against
Robert Cooke and others, charged with taking up and
carrying away the body of a respectable woman, of
the name of Chambers, after it hal been interred.—
The case was traversed until the next Sessions.

- Monday, Walsh, who was charged with opening
and robbing of the Mail-bags, about seven years ago,
at his house in Caroline-street, Cork, was fully com-
mitted for trial at the next ssizes, on the evidence
of his wife; who originally caused his arrest, and
finally lodged those ex.iminations against him, upon
which he has been committed.

Yesterday as a horse and can, laden with goods,
was passing through Fleet-street the horse fell down,
and almost instantly expired ; and, while the owner
was endeavouring to secure the property in the cart,
be was robbed of his pocket-book, with which the
thieves got clear off.
Thursday a boat, in which was a waterman and a
Mr. Hughes, of Peter-street, Westminster, was ac-
cidentally overturned by a sailing barge, opposite
Seotlandlat d. The b,u•geman immediately jumped
into the river, se zed Mr. H. at the moment he was
sinking, and kept him buoyant till taken up by a
passing wherry. The waterman' saved himself by
swimming.
A W. RD TO Tna Wit:n-4s any one vexed with a
peevish and fretful temper, unhappy in himselt and
displeAsed with-all around hiM, nor can he assign any
good 'Cason for being thus uncomfortable ; he has
plenty' of food and raiment, nor is there any human
probability of the reverse; with something to spare !
Nevertheless, his mind is harassed, his sleep disturbed,
spirits low, nerves weak, and stomach quite irregular,
nor does food, however nice, seem to nourish; as to
refreshing sleep, he is a stranger, more tired at rising
than lying down ! frightful dreams follow the poor
patient through the night, with weariness in the mar-
ping. One Gentleman was eves worse than the above
statement; and by taking Dr. GAlWNsit's alterative
.Pills and Cordial, voided I different sorts of Vermin,
and is happily restored to his large and rising family

MESSRS. GOSS and Co. as reguiany ecivihted
Surgeons of London,. have sedulously devoted their Elena
don for these fast 17 years to the study of those disorders whsch
so frequently c- .abitter, and too often prevent, that Inestitaahlo
Messing, matrimonial tetchy. The numerous applicatious tbs.,
have hitherto reCeived from persons of the first distinctioo, and
the uniform success it tending their superior mode of Wannest
in such complaints, induce them thus pobligly to offer their aunts
anee. In all cases of debility or deficit:icy, whether resubing Woos
the too frequency of participating in the gaieties of a fashioatalsto
life, the unbounded indulgence of libertinism, or a secrer, solitary,
anidestructive habit, which weakens the energy of the mind, and
destroys the dower of youth, by producing sterility in thecae ties,,
and impotence in the other, they offer a sate and perntaijiaat are.
To those who, from such complaints, art I,oevrilted efiltriniento

infirmities in silence, it most be consoling to know, however cid&
cult or ineff etual the cure May be deemed by other pract.tioners,
that, by.x renovating and infailible meth :d, they nuy be Metered
to a sound and vigo-ous constitution. A cer ta .n Pesorder, fres
quently contracted In a moment of indiscretion, sod every species
of Venereal Infection, by a ouldand never-filling ossidrof teens
ment, is speedily an radically removed, without restraint in diet
or exercise. as also Strictures of the Urethra and Fleets iliac!, they
are enabled to cure in a short period, without retoishe to she
painful, dangerous effects of the Caustic; references of which,can

been cured in a very short period, after having laboured under
I, strictures for many years. To married Femurs.; whose crops.
tattoos of thole tender pledges of connuitial happiness have beta
