Upon the cloth being removed, The King—the Prince Regent—the Hoye' Family—the AP any, and the NAV y, were drank with enthusiasm, and followed by . 4 Cod save the King"--" Hail, Star of Brunswick !", " How merrily we live"—and " Rule Britannia." The Duke of SUSSEX then rose, and observed, that as one of the Vice-Presidents, it fell to his lot to pro. pose the health of his Illustrious Relation who now filled the Chair. When the Army was given as a toast, the name of his Royal Highness was omitted, though never coupled with it but with applause. No one, indeed, could look at the events of late years and not feel that the applause was just. but not only was the Army indebted to his Illustrifts Relative, but the country' at large also ; for the Commander in Chief had introduced into the Army economy and sobriety—(applause). It must also be gratifying to the country to see him, whenever he could spare a few moments from his public duties, devoting them, as in the present case, to forward the objects of dia. city. He concluded Ly proposing the health of the Royal Chairman. The Duke of YORK returned thanks. This was the third year he had presided in the same place, and each succeeding year he had seen the Meeting more numerously attended, and the suhscription amount to a larger sum ; still the funds were not equ4 to their object, and his Royal Highness trusted the friends of the Institution would this clay prove that their good will towards it had increased rather than diminished—(applause).

The Gentlemen of the Theatrical profession were, he ob. served, in the habit a calling themselves his Majesty's Servants, but he had always regarded them as that Servants of the Public, and they were to be classed among the most useful and honourable individuals by whom that Public were served. The transcendent talents which at present adorned every department of the Drama, and the excellent character which die,. tinguished the several Members of that respectable profession, tbarcharacter being indeed such as to 'raise the profession higher in universal estimation than it ever stood at any former period, it was im possible that an appeal of this nature could be made in vain to the proverbial generosity of Englishmen. Every heart and purse must indeed be ready to aid in forming a Fund to relieve those from want and melancholy in the evening of their days, who, in the vigour of their youth, had contributed so much to our entertainment and instruction ; or who could forget, or fail to feel a lively interest in the fate of those individuals who bad so often excited our laughter and called forth our tears, while they incul cated these superior lessons of morality—those im, pressive precepts of decorum—those liberal and he roic sentiments with which the British Drama abound,- ed-,-(loud, universal, qnd long-continued applause)? Toast—" The Lord Mayor and the Citizens of Louden." The LORD MAYOR acknowledged the honour done himself and his fellow-citizens, Who, he said, he was convinced, would always be most ready to co-operate with their illustriouS Chairman in forwarding the ob jects of the present institution. Mr. Maritima, who is ever ready to promote the cause of humanity, and who had come from Yarmouth to attend the Meeting, was here called upon for a song. The call was immediately echoed by the whole corn, pony, and was cheerfully obeyed, The song was "The Nightingale Club," and it war loudly applauded, as it could not indeed fail. to be, as this highly enter taining perfornier was its the hest spirits, and fully displayed hi% characteristic versatility of talent. Me. Mathews also entertained the company in the course of the evening with a new recitation, entitled, " The Adventures of a Voyage from Dover to Calais," which, in our judgment, far exceeds in richness of humour and variety of comic description even his very popular recitation as to " The Adventures of * Mail CoaCh." Upon " the h,ealth of Mr. FA.wearr, the Treasurer of the Theatrical Fund," being drank, that Gentle man addressed the M osier to the following effect: e May it please you: Royal highness, Lords and Gentlemen, I rise te over yea my Iv. DRURY-LANE THEATRE. The regular entertainments of the TheatrCs being suspended on the 30th ofJanuary, that day is usually . appropriated to the commencement ed . the Oratorio season, which is continued on Wednesdays and Fri days in Lent. This Theatre, under the conduct of Sir GEORGE SMART, who gave on Saturday evening a good foretaste to the town, of his discernment in selecting the best specimens of the works of the leadi;ig musical composers, and in the still more dif ficult task of disposing to the best advantage the Vocal talent of the counti y. The Concert began with three extracts from Mower's /?eyukai, a name that cannot pass the lips of a musician without excitine sentiments of veneration fln the author of the work, and of sorrow for the unhappy circumstances unde.. which this master-piece of musical genius was be queathed co the world. These were the introduction and Agee, the Ricordare, and the Benedictus ; the two last ate distinguished by the utmost tenderness and depth of feeling, and are the best parts oldie cone. position. In Germany it is recorded as a fact, that a stranger came to MOZART, and gave him a commis sion to compose a Requiem on a Royal death. which was about to take place: MOZART pursued the sub. ject with such ardour, that he became delirious, and died with some wild conception that the stranger, who never came to claim the Requiem, was a being of some higher world, sent either to tempt, or warn him,—BEETHOVEN'S Mount of Olives was the next prominent feature of the evening. It. was performed both in the instrumental and N'OC.:II deriTiMetit with great steadiness and precision. The remaining selec tions sveie principally taken from the Messiah and the Creation. The chorus from the latter, of "The Heavens arc telling," is a climax of nutsical effect that rises gradual and unbroken to the last note.— ' Madame lier.i.oent, the prima loaitu of this years Opera, appeared on Saturday fin the first time as a concert-singer. A trifling incidiait at the outset had nearly disordered her nerves, end obstructed the ii - play of her rowers. Arriving a law minutts too late for her first song, entirely, as it afterwards ap peared, by accident, she was greeted on her entrance by a few uncosurteous hisses—an explanation om Sir Geonce Smanr converted them into applause, but the spirits of the fitir stranger were at first evi dently affected. Madame Bet,t.oent cannot but gra tify her hearers highly any where, but she is less striking as a concert than a stage singer—her talent appears to be purely and almost exclusively dramatic. Mrs. SALMON, the most exquisite of oratorio singers, was loudly applauded throughout the evening. She was encored in the beautful air, from the oratorio o f The Illexsiah, " Rejoice greolln," which she executed in a style of the most surpassing sweetness and deli cacy. She was also encored in the melancholy tile— " My twilling is on Me cold ground," which she sang with new variations. Miss Goovata. is much im proved, both in yoke, taste, arid science. She sang most expressively Mr. BISHOe'S pretty air, " Observe you yon neglectedllusCr." Mr. T. COOKE, in the ab-' sense of Mr, Pvtee, undertook the airs originally marked out for that gentleman, and with good effect.. Between the second and third acts, Mr. LIN COLEY performed a solo on the Violoncello-I . rom which hi strumeut he drew forth times as soft and delicious as those produced by the ablest baud, from the finest violin. His performance was received with the meat enthusiastic applause. The exertions of Sir GAORGLSMART, under whose direction the Oratorios at this Theatre are got up, will, we have uo doubt, be crowned with complete success. The house was, on this occasion, exceedingly full—and the display of fashion and loveliness in the dress circle was equal, if not superior, to any thing we have witnessed at former Oratorios.
