COMMISSIONERS OF BANKRUPTS' HALL.
TJIIS DAY.

IN THE MATTER OP MARSH, STRACRY, AND GRAHAM.
„ Dila being jlse day app.dotad Cur me second Meeting of the Cr..
diton in the above extensive Bunking-house, the Hall was crowded
to excess by the numerous claimants on the late firm.
The first business proceeded on was the election of Assignees,
when the following Gentlemen were named, viz. blesses. Hart,
Holland, and Lewis, by one set of creditors, and the names of
Messrs. Bushnell and llutchous, as an addition by another.—After
considerable discussion, it was resolved that the majority of the
creditors should decide whether there should only be three or five.
The Commissioners then proceeded to receive the proof of
debts, and the respective creditors, on being admitted, went to a
side table, where the poll clerks took their names.
A body of Creditors suggested that notice should be given in the 1
public papers, when the whole body would' have an opportunity of
voting.—So equal' poised-were the votes, no to the time of one
going to press, tit' t a general idea prevailed that the suggestion
would be adopte .

gone considerable improvements. A Drees Circle has been fortes&
and the whole has been decorated in a tasteful manner, wit! gilt
ornaments on the fronts of the boxes, on a ground of rose coiner
with wkint stripes, Wording a pleasingly light and doom appear-
ance. The private boles are lined with rich crimson loch paper,
with silk draieries to correspond. The proscenium has the a
ante of a variegated fan, embossed with burnished field. i M

to hold 40 musicians.

the very limited sphere of her exertions. She is great, they say, in
Othello and Is 21nscrafi; but GA arm having left Paris. Mae is at
an end, and Madame PASTA'S grand displays are therefore reduced
to two Operas, which certainly is net variety enough N keep en-
thusiastic admiration very long alive.

Some time since a son of Apollo disappeared from
his quarters at Brighton, and was accompanied by Miss
M—, a young Lady of considerable expectations and
great personal beauty and accomplishments. The
elopement was not discovered for some time, owing to
an impression made by certain documents left in '• my
ILady's chamber," that she had set off on a visit to a
r distant friend. At the lapse of two or three days, how-
ever, a letter was received at Brighton, h r the
Gretna-green post-nsark, front which it appearedthat
the knot was indissolubly tied, and the Lady's family,
in remembrance of that bitter proverb-6' what can't be
cured must be endured," wrote a letter of forgiveness,
and the happy couple, on returning to Brighton, re-
ceived an establishment suitable to the Lady's previous
rank in life.
BLAGETNIANS BR/10011.—The LORP MAYOR Tester-
Jay signed a notice for stopping up the carriage-way ee
