Saturday 27 Mar 1819 (p. 3, col. 1-2) Mr. RAINE will open the Special Commission here on Thursday next. We shall present our readers with a report of the business which may come before the Court up to its rising on Friday evening. The Rev. Walter FLETCHER, Chancellor of the Diocese, will preach before Jonathan RAINE, Esq. and the High Sheriff. Adam MURRAY has been committed to Carlisle gaol, charged with stealing an heifer from Stanwix, the property of Mr. James RAE, of Wheelbarrow Hall. On Thursday, sixteen new freemen were admitted to the freedom of the City of Carlisle, on which occasion, forty-three persons sat down to dinner at Miss JOHNSTON's, the Queen's Head, the Mayor in the Chair. Only 24 persons have been summoned on the Grand Jury for the ensuing gaol delivery, and these wholly from the Cumberland and Eskdale wards. The High Sheriff has issued the usual invitation to the gentlemen of the grand jury, and in the commission of the peace, to dine with him at the Coffee-house on Thursday next. On Wednesday last, a numerous and respectable company dined at the Grey Goat, for the purpose of welcoming Mr. Robert ANDERSON, the ingenious author of the Cumberland Ballads, to his native City, after an absence of some years. Mr. Henry PEARSON was unanimously called to the chair, and the vice-chair was filled by Mr. Thomas WILSON: the dinner was excellent. After the cloth was removed, and the usual standard toasts had been given, the chairman proposed the health of Mr. ANDERSON, and expressed the pleasure that he felt in once more beholding him in his native city. The toast was drank with enthusiasm, and Mr. ANDERSON returned thanks in a short but expressive address. Among the other toasts, which were very numerous, was "Mrs. HOWARD, of Corby, the patroness of the Cumberland Bard:"-it is almost needless to observe that this was most warmly received. Mr. ANDERSON begged leave to propose one toast which he was sure would call forth the approbation of the company-"A friend, a man of genius, and a man of virtue-Mr. Thomas SANDERSON."-Many excellent songs were sung (including several of the Cumberland Ballads), and the evening was spent in the true spirit of harmony. The public will be glad to hear that Mr. ANDERSON has an idea of publishing an additional volume of poetry, comprizing ballads, and a variety of other pieces on different subjects. We think we may say that the success of such a publication is certain. On Thursday last, Captain James LISTER, of La Nymphe of Whitehaven, was committed to Carlisle gaol for refusing to deliver up the register of the said vessel to the major part of the owners. At a meeting, holden at Whitehaven, yesterday week, it was resolved that a House of Recovery should immediately be prepared for the reception of poor persons affected with fever; and a subscription was opened. On Sunday morning last, several fresh herrings were caught in a stake-net, at Saltom near Whitehaven, being six weeks earlier than any taken in former years. There is now a thrush's nest near the Ginns, Whitehaven, with two eggs in it. During the past fortnight, the Joiners at Whitehaven have been standing out for an increase of wages: they have been in the habit of receiving 19s. per week; they demand 21s. a week and 2 hours at dinner. The Earl of Lonsdale has appointed Thomas JOHNSON, of Lancaster, gentleman, his Deputy Steward of the hundred of Lonsdale, in the place of the late John BALDWIN, Esq. The Cumberland Pacquet contradicts a paragraph in our last paper relative to the breaking open of a house in the market-place at Whitehaven, and gives the following as the real circumstances of the case:- "Wednesday night last, between eleven and twelve o'clock, a soldier, belonging to the detachment of the 18th hussars, at present stationed here, was met by the nightly picquet guard, a little intoxicated, and conveyed by a corporal and private to the public house of Richard MORRIS, in the market-place, Whitehaven, (being the said soldier's quarters,) and in which house Mr. David RINKIN is only a lodger. They knocked several times at the door for admission, but without effect, MORRIS and his wife having gone to bed, and although they heard the knocking, would not open the door, being ignorant that it was their own lodger who wished to be admitted. The noise brought the watchman, Thomas MAXWELL, to the spot, and another watchman named James NICHOLSON, was also present.-The soldier who had been apprehended by the picquet, growing impatient at the delay, kicked at the door with his foot, and forced a small staple which held the bolt on the inside. This caused MORRIS and his wife to come down stairs, where they found their own lodger, endeavouring to replace the staple and again bolt the door.-One of the street lamps, in the neighbourhood of Richard MORRIS's house, but not within several yards of it, was on the same night broken; but that accident happened before nine o'clock." The Correspondent who furnished us with the account thus contradicted, observes,-"With respect to what was said about David RINKIN's house last week, it came from his own mouth. The Cumberland Pacquet says that Mr. RINKIN is only a lodger in the house. Mr. RINKIN is a dealer in dried beef, bacon, &c. and has the front shop of the ground floor, and a room up stairs to sleep in; the remainder of the house is let to MORRIS, as a public house. RINKIN says it is his, and MORRIS says it is his," &c. From this it is easy to see that a disagreement exists between the two occupiers of the house, and hence, no doubt, the exaggerated statement in which the account sent to us originated.
