London, April 21. We hear that the disputes at Bath
concerning the succession to the office of master of the
ceremonies are at length concluded. Capt. Wade is
unanimously elected. Five hundred pounds of the surplus of
the ball subscription for the present season are to Major
Brereton, and Mrs. Brereton is appointed a benefit ball
every season, which Capt. Wade obliges himself to make equal
to 100 l. per annum, if the receipts of the night should
fall short of that sum. The ball subscription for the
future is settled at three guineas instead of two, the
guinea extraordinary to be applied to the use of the master
of the ceremonies.
