COVENT GARDEN THEATRE.

It were unjust to impute to the Proprietors of
this splendid imposture of a Theatre, negligence
or supineness, fur, having tried every possible ex- ,
pedient of physical coercion, from Dutch Sam,
" Brui:er Bolivian," to the Founders-suen from
Great Queen.street—they have at last resorted to
the Court of iling's Bench. Hitherto the united
efforts of Professor Brandon, his carpenters, la-
bourers, pugilists—both Jew and Christian, his
Police °dicers, t!.e potent aid of the Braham,
the Bennett, the Gibbons, the Blind Boy, the
modern Thalestris, and the whole tribe of in-
formers, have been ineffectual...notwithstanding
the powerful assistance derived from the laudable
impartiality of Bow.street. We shall now see
whether the interposition of his Majesty's Attor.
ney-General, who, this day, moved for a criminal
information against Mr. Cr-trump, and three
other persons, " for a conspiracy," will be more
successful, than that ef the worthy characters al.
ready mentioned.
SATURDAY.
We cannot but admire the taste of the Mafia.
gers, in the selection of musical pieces fur the
amusement of the public. Why nut begin with
Oscar and Malvina, and finish with the old long.
standing dish of Mother (duos e Such pieces as
the Cabinet arc not exactly suited to the season
of popular indignation. But the Managers have
unt yet fairly tried the died of music. Let
Mr. lactenom address the Pit with " Cease
rude Boreas," and, if that fail, with Lullaby.
The affectation of performing an Opera, io
absolutely ludicrous. Of the Cubinrt, very lit.
tic was heard even in the second Act ; and after
the third, the voices of the performers on the
stage, were drowned by those of the 0. P.'s ill
the Pit. The performance of the Child of Na-,
ture which followed, was equally inaudible.
The tit was very thin—the Boxes thinner, very
few orderly's being present. A very great majo.
city of those who were in the Boxes wore 0. P.'s.
In the Pit the Q. P.'s appeared determined to
resist all attempts at coercion. Several attacks
were made, in which, after short but severe con-
Wets, they were uniformly successful. At last neat
30 dirty-looking men entered the Pit, and dividing,
passed down each side. From the minuteness with
which they scrutinizes! the different benches, their
errand was soon suspected, and a cry of 0. P.'s
instantly ran through the Pit, on which the cum.
parry concentrating, displayed _a phalanx so
formidable, and manifestly so resolute, that the
ruffians immdiately retired. From that time there
w as nu opposition, the consequence of w Welt was,
that there was no disturbance—for it is to the in.
(reshot and violence of the rujians, that any
thing like riot is imputable.
In the interval between the Play and the Farce;
Mr. Thomas, the Gentleman who was so ill-used
on Friday, and had his coat torn off, addressing
the audience, said, that as the Ladies in the Drimis
Boxes had been principally instrumental in kindly
procuring him a covering, he begged to address
himself to them in particular, as they might piessi.

of gentlemanly appearance in the Dress.boxes, voci-
ferating "No speeches !" A furious altercation en.
stied, which terminated by the Gentleman, who had j
interrupted Mr. Thomas, withdrawing from the
scene of contention. Mr. Thomas was about to
resume, when the curtain rose, on which he sat
down. When the curtain finally dropt, Mr.
Thomas repeated what he had first said, and added,
that he wished to return the coat to the owner, as
that cursed Ministerial hireling, the Editor of
The Day, bad declared it was ten times the vales,
of his own. The coat was then held ifp, and cer.
tainly did not appear to be of recent ma.salOoture,
it was literally in rags. This excited much merri.

will none of the orderly's bid fur it ?" " None
of the Jews from Russell-court," resounded
front all quarters.
The coat was then lint up to auction, and knock-
ed off at 130.... but the purchaser refusing to
substantiate his bargain, it was agreed to present
it to the 66 STAG Es" on which it was then thrown,
and a servant of the house hooked it oat at one
of the side lick nes. •

The usual cheers, groans, and songs were per-
formed after the curtain had dropped, and the
small number of individuals in the privileged tier,
paired uff---lis consequence of the unreal observa-
tions by the company in the other parts of the
kotsse.

The placards were ntimeroos :-

rack night you cleanse the Atioranstable."

A figure of a lady con-Aunt, beneath whirls was
writteu-.-

Many others, so plainly! indicative 'of public
sentiment as nut to be mixtaken, were exhibited.

wounded in the hand on 'Thursday night being

for that purpose, expressly rcseistsling them in
size, shape, and formation. This coincidence can
leave but little do►ibt that the wound gir►n by
this instrument was inflicted by sonic workmen
who had been concerned in prevaritt4 that ingv
niuua mode of separating the Boxes from the Pit.

sharp instruments...probably from the liatflu
agents.
MR. COWLAM.
We are happy to inform tho Public, that the
life of this GristLeman is considered to be out of
danger. On Saturday afternoon, be was, with the
consent of Mr. Jackson, the surgeon, removed to
his own house, from whence it is pruposed.to ro.
move him into the country, for the benefit of the
air. The prosecution of the ruffians, by whom
he was su brutally attacked, will follow as a map
tar of course. Fortunately they can be idestillutt.
