GKEiwocK, Fa.. 2.—We lead one of the moll

perienced this winter, accompanied vith heavy

cotton and fah, arrived and came to anchor in
Gourock Bay, but drove during tae night, and
was very near ashore on the Rofeneath (hoe, when
the gale abated ; the. however, arrived in fafety
in thaulloads yeßetday forenoon. This veffel
failed from Lilbon on the gth ult. and has had a
very boillerous ,paffage ; law only one vette' all
the time, hut, owing to the hada& of the wea,
titer, could not fpeak her.
The American brig Peggy, THOMPSON, from
Lifbon, with fruit, bound for this port, failed five

boarders alked the Captain if there were any Eng-
lifis (hips in New York ; they were told there wet e
force, but none to fail former than the 2.)th ; upcn
Paying this, he was immediately knocked down by
the Lieutenant, who (lid they were waiting there
for the George and Mary, Loth Engliflt
which they looked for every day. The
pirate has, however, been completely difappointed,
as the veliels alluded to have arrived, the George
here, and the Mary is the velrel uhich has ken
unfortunately driven on (bore in Loch:adaal. The
-privateer is the fame that captured the American
(hip Zenobia, bound for ilamburgh,which was re•

role uncommonly high ; it was over gre:u, part of
the quays; the brealt from the Tar Pots to the
Eat Quay head was entirely under water, and
the tide was nearly into the middle of the Welt
Quay fhade. It was not, however, nearly equal
to the remarkable tide we had in January t 796.

1.411, INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF CHANCERY, FEB. 9. •

DRUET.LANt THEATRE.

This caufe being called on putty:lnt to adjonre-
meat,
Mr. SOLICITOR-GENERAL raid, that the parties
had agreed to an arrangement, and that Mr. She-
ridan, adopting all his Lordihip's intentions, had
waved the propofed refervation of wool. per an-
num for himfelf, and fool. for his fon, as the debts
were larger than expected. Upon this ground,
thereforo, he parried receiving any refervation
for himfelf until the incumbrances upon the pro-
perty were reduced.
The CI:ANC&LLOP. faid, he had received the laft
propofils but laR night. It differed from the for-
mer in nothing but the alteration made by Mr.
Sheridan's refigning the formerly propofed re-
fcrvation. He thought it would, however, be ne-
reffary juft to go through the fcheme of accom-
modation before all the parties. In the &ft place,
Ire obferved, his brother Palmer had decided upon
the fituation of Grubb, and it appeared, from his
a:l2rd, that he was A partner in the management
and profits from September 179 f, that he now re-
mained a partner—the partnerthip, however, de-
terminable upon notice. It alio appeared that he
had made great advances, and was liable for con-
fiderable fume. New the &ft quellion he wiflied
to afk was, had he feen and agreed to the laft pro-
pails ?
Mr. AGAR was about to comment upon the
language of the propofal, when the Chancellor
wiffied an anfwer to his laft queftion and hcing
anfwereod in the affirmative, he added, that he
knew the whole language oldie propofals wanted
altering, by reafon of the fait alteration, lo as to
mal:c it confident throughout.
The next queftion hewifhed to a& was, whether,
(ince the hill reeds, the performers and current
expences had been regularly paid?
This was anfwercd in the affirmative.

His Lordlhip next advcited to the provifion for
the payment of rent, taxes, &c. and Aced what
was done with refF.a to arrears?
Mr. LLOYD, on behalf of Mrs. Nunn, lintel,
that as the was a very old Lady, and had a large
arrear due, if the payment was poflponed till alter
many other ,!ebts, the would moll likely never re-
ceive it in her own perfon.
Mr. Gmbh alto, on behalf of executors, prefred
for more fpeedy payment than was propofed by
the arrangement.

The CHANCELLOR obferved, that thofe having
legal rights, by a rigid exertion of thole rights,
might crush the prooerty, to their own injury and
that of others. In the prefent Rate of the con-
cern. it moil be by temperance and forbearance
on the part of all, that thr interefts of all would
be belt ferved. After fiime further converfatian
on this point, it vas ordered to Ranc! over. His
Lordfhip then oblerred upon the provifions made
for the paynitut of performers, tiadefmen,androl.
per week as luMiflence money to the manager.—
He ailed if it was agreed what proportion of this
'latter lum was due to Grubb It was anfw:ted
that 7,es. was the admitted proper:ion.
With ronea to the chutes providing for the
payment of the Rent Charges, his Lordihip ob-
ferved, that the Rent Char? es, under the deed of
793, ought to he provided for before thofe of a
lublequent date, which was not the cafe by the
propoiition before liar ; or at kali it ought to up-
pear that the Rent Chargers of t 793 had agreed
the prefent arrangement.
Mr. Lrovn faid, he alto appeared for three gen-
tlemen, authors, 2,:r. Cobb, Mr. Lewis, and 'Mr.
Hoare,_Mr. Cobb was willing to come into the
compofition, but Mr. Lewis and Mr. Hoare could
never get their accounts allowed.
The CHAtiChLLOR replied, that before he came
to the authors, he willed to know what had been
done in the cafe of the Iradefmen and performers,
and it was in that view of the quellion that he
wilhed to fee the compolition deed, that he might
hinifelf judge how far it accorded with the plan
of arrangement.
Mr. SPIERIDAN withed to fay a few words in ex-
planation. He Rated, that all the performers moll
willingly came into the compofition deed, and that
the arrears previous to the prefent feafim were fir
!rifling, as not to be thought worth mentioning.
With relpen to the cafe of Mr. Hoare and Mr.
Lewis, the amount of their claims was difputed ;
he had, however, propofed that they thould fign
for the whole firm they claimed, Cubic& to reduc-
tion, if, upon invedigation, their claim was not
fuhflantiatcd to that extent.

His Lord(hip wilhed that there unfettled claims
thould be referred to arbitration—and again re-
verting to th arrears due to tradclmen and per-
formers, fail he mutt fee the compofition deed be-
fore he could decide upon that point.
Having gone through all the claufes of pro-
pelled arrangement, his Lordlhip laid he thought
he could not do better than follow the path he
had•already purfued. He thought they had now
got to a &nation which might terminate to the
advantage of all parties, and lie Ihould be lorry to
overlook any thing which might be hereafter a
ground of difpute. He would willingly bear all
the reflettions made upon delay, for no delay could
be wrong which ended in more pedal jullicc.—
He withed, therefore, that the concern thould go
on as it now did, ;he current expences being regu-
larly paid, until Saturday week. In the mean
time, he &fired to have a copy of the trial deeds,
and the Conflict would alfo take into their confe-
deration and let him know what occurred to them
upon thole points which were adjourned, and on
that day he would make his final award—but he
alto begged that no papers might be tent after Sa-
turday next.
Mr. TROWARD, on behalf of Mr. White, pro-
prietor of part of Killigrew's patent, Paid, he was
milruaed again to mention his claim. His client's
with was merely to get paid, but there was no fund
appropriated for that purpofe, and he was at a loti
how to aft..
Mr. SHERIDAN laid, that Mr. Harris contracted
to align the whole of the dormant patent for
ao9ool. Mt. White claimed soool. for his (hare;
he did sot accede to this demand, but laid that

Mr. White ought to be paid for his (hare only in
the proportion of as so,OOOL was to the whole.—
With refped to the fund for payment—there cer-
tainly was one, doe from the Opera Houfe, which
he had the pleafure of Rating was now admitted
by the Truilecs of that concern. He propofed
that it should go to arbitration.
The CHANCIILLOR alfo recommended it.

?'r. TROWAILD faid he had no initrudions upon
that point.
Upon the application of Mr. Grubb, the time
for fending in papers was enlarged to the Tod-
day beyond the Saturday firfl propofed.
Adjourned to Saturday fe'nnight.
