WINDSOP, JUNE 19.

Yesterday being the anniversary of tEe memorable
Dmle cf Waterloo, the Officers of the 1k,,y41 Horse
Guards who were engaged in the battle gave the
most splendid Fete that ever was given upon any si-
milar. occasion. N.) pains or expense were spared to
render it an entertainment Artily the attention of
the Royal and distinguished characters with whose
company they were to Ise honoured, especially as
their Noble Commander, the Duke of Mummy,
I was to be present. '11:e arrangements for the even-
ing's entertainment were contpleted yesterday. Soon
-after twelve o'clock it WAS conitniinicated to her
1
blaJesTv, who had promised the o,Ecers the honour
of her company to view the preparations, itc. when
the QULEN. accompanied by the Princesses AOGUNTA
and k:uzartscrii, attended by their Ladies in Waiting,
Lord HENLT, Grneral G MTII, and Mr. DEsettow,
went in two carriages and four to the Cavalry Bar-
racks, where they were received by the Officers and
military heroes. They entered by the principal Field
Officer's apartment, from which they were con
ducted through a long passage covered with scarlet
cloth, decorated with laurel on each side, as emhle-
niati:: of Victory. They proceeded to the Riding
House, which WAS fitted up in the mast elegant man-
ner possible to be conceived, for the ball-room. The
whole of this extensive place was covered with red
cloth, &c. The ceiling was profusely covered with
variegated lamps, distributed very tastefully. In the
centre were three remarkably large lustres or chan-
deliers, practiced from London at a very considerable
expense. Two orchestras were fitted up, to play al-
ternately. Two large folding doors at the bottom of
the ball-room were thrown open on supper being an-
nounced, which had a most magnificent and splendid
effect. Supper was laid for lOW persons, and there
were upwards of 1000 corers. The tables were de.
corated with the trophies of war, and particularly
those descriptive of all the battles the Duke of WEL-
LINGTON has been engaged in. The hall-room WAS
upwards of 311 feet long. Tirp3l) SAID'S tent, which
was sent as a present to the KING, was horrovied, and
fitted up for the Palace REGENT. The company
began to arrive about nine o'clock. The .Pnixeit
RWENT arrived at ten, when the three military bands
struck up " Goo rave the King," whirl) had a very
grand eft et. The Duke of WELL IN :TON did not
arrive till eleven, wnen the banas plated " See the
conquering Hero comer." About this rime dancing
commenced. The company sat down to supper soon
after one o'clock, after which dancing was resumed,
which continued till five this morning.

LAW /NI ELLIGENC E.
COURT OF CHANCERY, /UNE IS.
OPERA 110U5E.....-TALM AND SIADLIA. (MUM&
WATERS V. TAYLOR.

Mr. LEACH, on behalf of Mr. Taylor, this day
moved for an injunction, to restrain Mr. Waters from
performing French plays, concerts, &c. in the Opera
House, until he had paid into Court the purchase
money for the Theatre ; and also that Mr. Waters
might be ordered to pay into Court all sums of money
received by Messrs. Birch, on account of the said,
property, up to December last. It was of the ut-
most importance, he said, that the present motion
should be made this day, is performances of a very
pat titular nature had been advertised to take place
this evening in the Concert-room of the Theatre.
Mr. HAAT here interrupted the I.earned Gentle-
man.—He trusted his Lordship would not entertain
a motion made under the present circumstances.—
The defendant ought to have applied before ;—be
might have applied yesterday to the Vice Chancel-
lor, and not have driven it over until the morning of
the day on which the performances were to take place.
The Loan CHANCALLOR...--" The performances
have been described as of a particular nature
should like to be informed what they are ?"
Mr. L1AM...." My Lord, they are readings and
recitations from Trench Plays, by M. Talnia, and
Mademoiselle Georges, and have been advertised to
take place this evening, in the Concert-room of the
Opera House." The principal objection the Lear-
ned Gentleman had to the present performance was,
that in the event of a fire happening during the per-
formance, they would be unable to recover, as the
' policy of insurance did not extend farther than the
performance of Italian Operas, by which he, Mr.
Taylor, would be subjected to a great loss, both as a
joint proprietor, and as the holder of sixty property
boxes. The Learned Gentleman concluded by ob-
serving, that while Mr. Taylor had had the manage.,
meat of the Theatre, he had been restricted from tne
performance of any thing but Italian Operas, on the
grounds above stated ;tie therefore trwted that he
( Mr. Taylor) would not be subjected to the danger
which would arise on the present occasion.
Lotto Cuaticsuma ...N." Why was not this moved
yesterday ?"
Mr. LEAC11...." It was not till the 16th that Mr:
Taylor had learnt that the performance WAS to take
place this evening." •
hire HART" When were the advertisements, an-
nouncing that the performances would take place this
evening, inserted in the newspapers ?"
Mr. Mitts (Mr. Waters's Solicitor)—Was not
aware that they had been advertised at all; the affi.
davit on which the present motion was founded had
only been filed yesterday, and they had filed an affi-
davit in answer only half an hour before.
LORD CHANCSLIAIt•-.1 Mr. Mills, what does your
affidavit contain P' •

Mr. MILL* said, that it denied allihe allegations

contained in the affidavit Bed by Mr. Taylor. He
(Mr. Mills) had gone to the different Fite OCices in
make inquiry whether there was any shaver in suffer-
ing the periormatice—but he wily got laughed at
Lonn CkIANCR.LLOR" They mght laugh bL:,,re
they brought their action."_

Mr. final' read a later from the Secretary of one
of the Fire °dice!: in Moe!) toe Theatre was insured,
stating that he did not consider there wou:tl Le any
danger in sot-feting the pertormatices to take plare.
Mr. HART Oin. tVI:d OW there olti1,11%! rt., danker
in the perlor.nanee Fienelt plays, ucles.s they con-
tained ifiamniafle gas !
Mr. 1 ittaLni—,' if t!:e Theatre wat to take lire
during the pt-rformltice of these French plays, the
defendant would lose .C. 10,000."
The Lour) CHANTELLoit..—., It will be bt.st 11 :If to
interrupt the pt-rtutroanct s this Let !ling. The only
question appears to nte to be, that v.hetlier. iu the
event of the Theatre being Muni down, the patties
wall be able to recover under the poky ot insurance.
Let this motion cc:ne on again to.no.rrow."

COURT OF KiNcr3 GENCII, JUNE'
THE KING e woriLett.

At the sitting of the Court this inorning, the Ar-
TOII2ID-GlitiltltAL being called on, slid, be I: -td no
thing to move, but he understood Mr. Wouier vg,i;
in attendance, and had something to move.—Ni:.
Wonler, who was in Court, salt+, Ale tad an appli.;:i
don to snake, but bis affidavits neie ot,t ytt cute
ready.
Soon after the deftrdant resented h!mselr to their
Lordships, and Lord ELLEN/Par:Mt if.quired
1-. e had to move ?

Mr. %%fouler said he bad row te, apply to their
Lordships to erase the verdict taker. atiaii;!.: hirr, eud
to discharge the rula made t,,r a new trial. his
use no verdict had been (alert, no trial had been
had, and therefore the rule for A new trial was in:•
concileable with gaud sense. Ile held in his
the affidavits of two of the Jury, who swore that the)
never agreed in that verdict—that they expected to
bo •back again to iieliberate, and not that a verdict
of guilty, unqualified, was to be entered.
The COURT said, these affidavits could not he re.'
ceived : it would open a wide field ter the elliSe of
the privilege of putting in affidavits. If thesc
davits dissenting from the verdict were receives!,
other jurors might put in contradictory affidavits.
Mr. Wooler said, he had the affidavits of three
by-standers.
The COURT said, they were not, in this case, called
.on as to whether these affidavits were recelvable. The
defendant would riot be bettered by their reception;
they could wily go to obtain the defendant a new
vial ; an indulgence which the Court had already
granted, it he chose to accept of it; and Lord EL-
Lassmaxoucii cautioned the defendant not to press this
point, as it might iejure him in the si.uation LI which
he stood, and hasten a judament.
Wouler continued. He contended the Court
coald not proceed to judgment, even should the At-
torney-General pray tor it. As to consequences, as
they regarded himself, he was careless of them ; he
contended only for the justice of his cause. The in-
dulgence which the Court hid mentioned, of grant-
ing tnnt a new trial, would be an injury in whatever
wajr n was dune, Even it he had the same jury, Ins
-cause might have been injured by the intetmediate
discussion which the question had undergons.. The
same obj•-ction would apply to a new jury. There
were nut, he believed, twelve men in the whole City;
of London, who had not read discussed the pro-
ceedings which took place on the trial. The in 4-ge-11
larities which had crept• into the trial were not inv.'
gularities originating with him, but with odic: s.
Lord LLLENDOttoUGHL libieivrd. it WAS On that
ground the Court granted him a new trial. Let
mere be a venire de now.

The detendant WAS proceeding to argue further,
when Lord ELLENBOIIOUCH obset ved, the time of tile
Coutt and the public could not be thus wasted.
Mr. Wouler was persuaded the Court would feel no
impatience. whilst an individual WAS pleading his
tights---the tights of an Englishman. The apt: it of
the English laws was iratice, :ad justice, he WAS
convinced the Bench would administer there.

Lord ELLENH MOUGII u!,served, justice must be ad-
ministered to the defendant as it v...ts to every other
Englishman. Will you come to your motion ?
Mr. Wooler—My Lord, what L have more to say
may be summed up in a few words. hly motiim is
that—Here a person who sat near the defendant, sug-
gested somet!iing more to him, and he was about to
proceed, when
Mr. Justice BATLEY said—That person must be
removed.

Mr. Wailer—My Lord, he is my Solicitor.
The Solicitor—My Lord, if my suggestion was
overheard by the Ceurt, I am sorry for it.
. Lord ELLer:sonouou—We accept your apology.
The defendant rill proceed.
Mr. Wookr—My Lord, I have now to move that
the verdict be vacated, and the order of the Colot
fur anew tzial be discharged. Even if lam tried by
the same Jury again, I shall stand in a disadvanta-
geous situation, compared to that in which I for-
merly stood • men's minds are prejudiced ; and the
Attorney-General havinp; exhausLed Iris malignity—
Lord ELLPNIIOIIOI.4tII—ThiS is language r,ut to be
tolerated. Will you state your motion:
Mr. Wooler—hly Lords, my tootion is, that the
verdict entered against me may be vacated, Alta the
rule fur 1 new trial discharged.
Lord ELLECIIOROVOII-11ave you dune
Mr. Woolei—lcs, my Lord, for the pres..nt.
Lord rLLENIIOIIOIIOII—AIId for ever, on this point,
Sir. Mr. Attorney-Generat haveyon any thing to say :
The ATTuttNEY-GENLUAL had previously intim.
ted that he had no objection to the rule fur • new
trial; but that it was impossible it could take place
with the same Jury. The Learned Counsel row ir.•
timated that he had nothing more to ad.:.
Lord Eu.luisottouou—Let the prisoner be re-
manded.
