UNION-HALL

Mr. Dockery ace of the new managers of the Surrey Theatre, yes.
terday waited on the presiding Magistrate, R. J. eitaathees, Esq.
requesting his yonhip's advice under these circumstances
A most ferocious dog, kept by Mr. Honeyman, whose back pre-
mises were near the stage door entrance of the place of amusement,
was exceedingly annoying. not to say dangerous, to those who had
occasion to pass backwards and forwards. The applicant said that
be had addressed two polite notes to Mr. Honeyman, requesting
him to remove the dog. but to neither of the communications did
he deign to return an answer. It was but right however to state,
that the animal was chained; notwithstanding this, as the chain
was so long, the dog could almost get to the stage door.
Mr. CHAMBERS said, that he was surptised Air. Honeyman should
still permit his dog to continue in the place mentioned, considering
bow very inconvenient it must prove to those who had to pass to
land from the stage entrance of the theatre.

Mr. Docker assured his Worship that it was so felt, and he had
taken the liberty to ask what was to be done with the animal ?
The Magistrate said that if the dog were killed by Mr. Docker,
an action would lie; nevertheless, if be ( Mr. Chambers) were dr-
cumitanced u the applicant was, he should net hesitate to have the
animal destroyed, if the owner still continued to let him remain id
his present situation.
Mr. Docker thanked the Magistrate, and then quitted the office.

The present possessor and the original one of die far-famed, dog
Bruin, which is performing almost every flight in pieces exhibited
at Drury-lane Theatre, have been several times before the Magis-
trates, disputing about the ownership.
The parties yesterday settled that question in this manner, Mr.
Woods, the present owner, having undertaken to give Mr. Vincent
to whom the dog was proved to have belonged, the sum of .CA/, to
be !said one pound per week until the amount he disc%arged.
It was stated that Mr. Woods had obtained an engagement fur
the animal at Drury-lane Theatre, at the rate of five guineas a week
for several months. Miss Vincent, who nightly performed in
Memos, recognized Bruin one night at the theatre, and told her father
of the circumstance, who immediately Instituted: the proceedings,
which have already been given.in former impressions of our Paper.
But as the dog was unacquainted with performing until he came
into Mr: Woods' hands, it was deemed only equitable that he should
continue with him, and Mr. Vincent, therefore, consented to resign
all future claim to the dug on receiving the ahovenamed money.
