RAYNER is engaged at Covent Garden for a time ;

and on the first night of his appearance he took occasion to address the audience on the injustice and injury inflicted on him in the matter of the Strand Theatre. The Lord Chamberlain has, through the medium of the Morning Post, rebuked RAYNER for being guilty of, and OSSALDIS - TON for allowing this impropriety ; and reminds RAYNER that he per- severed in building the Strand Theatre in defiance of an intimation that it would not be licensed. So fir RAYNER acted in his own wrong : but there is an imperiunt in imperio as far as theatrical licences are concerned-the Magistrates may license a place which the Cham- berlain proscribes.
