FINE ARTS. - . 'BRITISH INSTITUTION, PALL-INALL- Tbe Summer F.shibition, the private view of which was °posed es Saturday, consists of • selectios, most rare sad valuable, frees the works ef the Italia's, Spanish, Flemish„ , awed Dutch &boots. • detailed *Wire of all the 'amnesia' works of CLAUDE, TITIAN, RUSKIN, MURILLO, Rata BRANDT. GUIDO, TIMOR., TINTO/LOTTO, N. and G. Potts. • •Is, Rino•lL, Gosateno, Coy!, Bova, and twenty others, whose same* are carolled in the archives of fame, would be impracticable at present. N 0.4. Portrait of Fredsrige ds likossole, by Stn. DEL PIONISO (a recent purchase of the Mar q uis of LAN/DOWN), is awing the most attractive objects of •laciest portraiture. The face is the utmost perfection of the Ann seam No. 15. Gado'. de Foie, and N 0.49, Raphael, both ►g+ Gioatztona, will be viewed with great delight. The felt -symmetry and manly Ineaments of Iltrinnat. are presessoll. and informed, with a pervading spirit and thought obit* nose but a genius like his own could give them. No. 25. M. Cecilia, by Dominican°, is a piece of ie.' estimable value. From what combinations of th.iught sad feeling could the musters of those times have derived such images of spiritual rapture and reiuement? It was nut fees the experience antis' lives—few of theta were mu rabbis is practice, cad nose of them appear to have suffered fremthe mortificatious of their religion ; and yet how they have exalted the human soul in most of their pieces above the grossness of t►e animal frame which cucumbers it. Here is, fur instance, _in Nu. 77, A Magdalen, by GUIDO, which represents • female of full form and stature, her hue symmetry overcast with • livid hue, the evident result of bitter abstiseuee and self coercion—the uplifted face still denutes the throes of conscience, slid the feeling of ill. secured redemption—the eyes are - grown oigid with inces sant compunction—the muscles, which sympathize with the actioa of the lachrymal ducts, have become habitually in. fisined-i-tbe spirit struggles with the defalcations of the body; but there is an incipient hope which has just learnt to dawn through the veil of sorrows—a glimmering of celes tial joy tinges the superior division of the fact, and forte' s the fulfilment of blissful visions, in tennis " wheat gold cannot corrupt, nor thieves break through and steal." This is Christiasity ideatified, and one glance at it would do more to make Mr. CATIALC regret his 'unbelief than the prisou which he now inhabits. Nu. 75. The Ruperew Olko—and N0.•139. Caligula. display the taste of TITI•W in its highest character. The air of majesty which he has imparted to them is beyond any thing to be seen is ►is pieces of mere limey. No. 60. Diana retaining from Me Chase, is in the best style of Rlnalts. TikO subject is sullied by the demeasour sf the Satyr. The Goddess and the hound realize OVID'S conception of them. There is • little landscape piece by RIDISILANDT, N 0.21, wbkh is particularly deserving the attention of students, as they will seldom have a■ opportunity of seeing the same width of names so pleasingly and ingeniously occupied. Rummies River Viers, Mill Sireame, cad FaUisg Water*, in Nos. 30,67, sad 119, are entitled to strict obser vation from all who either relish or attempt to paint the irregular surfaces of nature. The peculiar genius et Modulo, which delighted iu forst rather thmenblimily, Is discoverable is all its propen. silica, by Nan:Joseph with the Infant Saviour ; 73, Tobit and the Aiwa ; wed 76, Abraham and Isaac. His penciling was powerful, as may be seen by the breadth, surfaces, and height which be gives le the mountainous composition at his small pieces. His religious figures, too, are beings of vigor. one eseegies, bet they want the dignity and grace of the ha liana With respect to the last-mentioned piece, what poverty of conception is manifested, if the mere design be contrasted •ith the picture which Mr. Wen painted of the same sub, ject. His were important being's in their forms and aspects fit for the progenitors of t►e stock of Jesse, by which the Deity was to become hatarnale. Moilizt.o's Abraham is an age-woes churl, before whom the sun, Isaac, is trotting up the mount in the uowinulog watituisness of childhood ; and the Artist deserves to be cited from his grave to ensure why ha deemed it necessary to paint the clothes of Jacob's father as ragged as they seem to be. The picture is still biomd price, and it might not be difficult to raise an argemen in our days of abundant theorist's, to prove that Mumma was right to trust nothing in the physical represeatat ion of his subjects. His Assumption of the No. 88, is a piece of very exalted character ; and Nu. 83, the same sub ject, would indicate that it was one of his favourite .His Dead Christ, No. 95, is a piece of solemn and myste rious horror. No. 56, The Tribute Mosey, by the indefatigable GUESOINO, is a sublime piece : the head and face of Christ are fell of the celestial meekness and forbearance of the Godbold, and stand its contrast of inexpressible glory was► the dull and jealous sophistry of the hoary mass of law, marehisig out the enroll& of a criminal conviction. The works of this Artist, though there must lie abundance of them somewhere, are tint frequently enough before the pub lic. He is a fine study fur the young aspirants who are to fuund the English school now, if ever England is to have a school. Two Arable Pieces, Nos. 122 and 140, by VANDER ,CApsgs„s, will be greatly admired for their truth'', (.01011.61z. There are two fine piece, of H , 118 and 129, mingled with a rich eollertioa of Gasemito Poutste's and 14 OUVER• MAN'S. There is s little piece, No. 133, of peat spirit, by PT HARSH, which will be prized as a just and forcible transcript of safest. There are two pircix by K. DU JARDIN (Noe 6 and 111 which are of the same character. They are contiguous to a piece of Cons (No. 10) and one of Tensest,' (Nu 8): • they teem to have borrowed the rich Snooty glow of the former to enliven the sober tints taken from the latter. There is a Landscape, by BOTH (Nu. 55), which display@ • that master', glory in its full ►chance. A brown autumnal 'heat•haa.ripeued the surface of a far-spread landscape, in which the eeparatedivisious are gradually throwu out from earl, nubs with the.aeust unobtrusive boldness. Not amine the least attractive objects i• No. 116, Mt. Wszes picture of Christ Healing the hith in the if cap's. -The chaste eolourirg has acquired more harmony since it was firm exhibited. The. engraving. from it, which has been so long on hand, is nearly completed. There are two manlike given of the plate, skewing its state is March lied year, sad May of this year. The plate is to be finish ed in July, and promises to he as complete imis ample in that branch of art, as the spirited taste and libe rdoir ef the Inatitutioe could have produced. It will 'en- • lainly be a wink of deep, solid, end accurate executive; and whoever possesses the print will be well informed rs to the design, ecianpoeitivo, and grouping of the picture. We were oprpensed to learn that the rub.crtptioo• for tlte • plate are flirt yet full. This 1111.61 be owing to the delay of the work, which has probably prevented the tender of the pro m...is in many instances.

THEATRES. • • OPIRA.IIOI3BII‘ On Seturday night was produced fee tht first time Bossier's comic opera of /1 Turco is Italia. The drum:nit persona ere—. Senn. a Turkish Primes Signor Dc Vtl.t.a. Dun Geroon) ..... Suruur Ds Bsovr. Dooms Fiorillo . - Norris.° Signor CORIOOL Pr(odOCOOO, a Poet Z a ida . Thu tkionr. The main plot is brief. The Turk lands at Na pli a to explore Italy, Pt admiring the beauties of which he is very ardent. He meet. with %gado, to whom he had betrothed himself while she was Ins slave, wandering with a gang of gipsies. His passion revives with the constitutional reschness of his native climate; but he is a little swerved from the allegiance due to it by the coquetry of Donna Fiorillo, whose capricious frolics recast° give very reasonable wounds for uneasiness to her imbecile and timorous apusise lion Gerona°. She is brought to penitence at last by a threat of divorce. In con at (pence the Turk resolves to embark for' home, and practice Christian constancy in regard to.Zoido.,—. Nord's° also begs pardon for having paid undo.] !Mention to the Doe's spouse, and ever,• thing ends' happily. The contrivances of Prosdacinso, the poet, lead to these results. He is it;,..quest of materials fur a comic opera, and manages all the intervrnisg incidents between the tising, and falling of tie curtain, more with i - vierri to dramatic effect than from • fixed regard for the& parties. The incidents are ingeniously dispesed,' complex and yet natteal,easy and pleasant i n their succession, vial highly titte;resting in the casual situations to which they give rise. It is its this piece that the characteristic genius of the com poser shows its most distinct identity and power, He has, iii this instance at least, elevated the spirit of the lyric cemedy. We are to ob serve, that a great part of the music of this opera. including the overture, was produced on our stage iu Cenereotolo. But though greatly admired in its best passages, it was deprived of thatetl' ct which is given by the relation of all the parts of au origi imid. Th.s being understood. it may be Ludy aver ed that of c o.nic opera t i tre is not a more pleasant and diverting one in the catalogue than the pre sflit. The music unerringly accords with the busi hies, of the scene, and die slain of the dramatist is deeply blended with the taste of ati accomplished muskies). It would take too much time to select and describe the chief passages—rnough to say, that each successive scene was received with increasieg admit:l6cm, and that four scenos, of no inconsiderable length, were loudly encored. The performer., of course, came in for a con eiderable share of tine applause. The firm of these repetitions look place on the entrance of Don Gerona°, and his immediate encounter wide the lepsiti. It was full of chimes,. There was, besides the well-disposed buille of the scene, and the skilful contrivance of the composer, the delight , of witnessing the effort of a successful. first appear ance. Signor BEGN I will be a treasure to the company. His latinid and easy mallows, confined within decent bounds, the effect to which his do mestic foitusies must have given rise; his weak resolution in resisting the treatment of his disore drily wife, seemed to he the result of a generous temperament, and his follies in no instauce lost him the respect of his auditors. His style is spirited, familiar, and gracelully congruous with the habits of declining age, for time complete delineation of which he is happily too young and ammaied in his vo:ce amid aspect. His tones are melodious, very reset. sad fluent—his style of singing vivid and Signora DE BEGN I is a first appearance of nu less interest ; her voice is of a confined chas teeter, surneilliiig like l'ucerTit's used to be, but her expression is just, and her embelliihments of r.cli and various fancy; her figure is not nest, but r Lice is full of sense and good nature ; she also give that pleasant tinge to the detects of the com rade', which retained for her compunction more esteem than she forfeited by her irregularities. Her imprudence was nut sensual, but seemed to b • an error of whim. and her pardon was yielded with more saiiefaction so others than to herself. 'rite scrim with her husband, which follows the de tection of her first fete a fete with the Turk, gave considerable delight. The arch fetidness by which she disarms his transient wrath, tied contrives to throw him into whimsical cousternation and penis truce by usurping the place of complainant, celled forth continued applause. The whole duetto, though a very long one, was loudly encored : so were the quintets, " Aet volto estotico." and the sestett, "Quest(' a an nodo ineilstppoto," formerly introduced in eenerentola. The variable descaitt in the latter is beyond all praise. 'There are many imasstig , s iii the piece which have more snaki ng te totality, but there are none that display such taste and ingenuity iu draw/lug out the latent and various beauties which belong to a simple theme. Cu RION I exhibited with great effect i u the part of Aureate°. Though his clue was love forlorn, mid that too winch was not entitled to suc cess, he gave marked importance to it. Perhaps his singing will never be perfect ; but his clear op preltemion of the composer's &vigil, his judicious (obedience to it, Nod its effectual enforcement of it, are rare gifts, which will at cure him high iinporta suer tit his profession. The seems which gave the highest and most unqualified pleasure, was a masked bail, in which Don Gerona° seeks his wife, and is greatly puzzled which of two sets of paramours, similarly aecoatred, lie is to address for that pur pose. The quintets° which comes of this situation wive the most sgreeable surprise, being on the part of Don Gerunio, the result of whimsicality, and with the others, of the blend emotions which the lure of passion seemed to have awakened in them, sod to which the composer imparted the riche s t .1. qttence of inflow. The choruises are of • v e ry d excellence. having by fur more cha racter mid poetical affinity with the relative scenes than any we have yet heard in Bosom's pieces.—• Ali.. Moat sustanied the romance of tier part in a very creditable matmer. Da VILLE was never Steil 10 so Much advantage.. Some of his uncouth peculiarities a. Wally seeded to enhance the re pre- I4CIIIIIIOII, and sorted cliermitigly with the risen manners and costume of his pcHt. He has a very deep and 'satiable voice ; but, froth bad orginiza hint or bad tamer, the utterance is irreprievably iin i in u m p e d. fi e w as, however, very sacces•ful iu I the interviews with Fiorillo, 'stud come good share of the applause which devolved on his angry and ludicrous miscount with the husbAnd.— . PLacci's nupertineoce in raitaarking the affairs of other people to make up his drama was a very pleasant picture of professional jaundice, by which all things seemed to take the hue that imbued his own mind. This character. with a little less mis chief and licentiousness, and far inure usefulness, is "a tolerable lacrimal of the Euglish " llnnnatist." The author of the piece demands piaise. not only fur the lively disposition and working of the plot, but for the neat and forcible diction with which he has conducted it. and the impres sive poetry with which he has embellished some of its incidents. It is seldom that an opportunity oc- curs fur lauding the liberality displayed in the scenery and decorations of an opera ; not from a want of disposition that way, so mua•h as front the very form sod nature of the estabbslimetst. In this piece there is some scenery which rains the preten woos of the theatre as high as those establishments which sue far more dependant on that sort of inte rest... The view of Naples, liist by daylight, and afterwards by moonlight. is among the finest in sTatite scenic economy. Such a dispo.itiain of full of bold sepatatinits, all perfectly min gled in soft said finished perspective, one may be . hot to the choice land\rapes of the 16th century. TIM mole advanced to the utmost projection of the Lock)," ridge, with the lig►ht.house above it—the fortijhst within this boundary—the steep acchiti :..ties, on which are seen the tents of the gop•y crew, and the deep cerulean tone taken from the nmoon • light by the sky and waters, give the whole scene a profound and tranquil effect. Another scene which di.played much taste, was the room in which the marked ball was held. It was fancifully de corated with the sesemhlance of valuable paintings, richly illuminated, and every division occupied by an earnest and interesting gruupe, while the musical business was going forward 111 trout of the . stsge. A divertisement was performed between the acts. in which M. A LBERT figured astonishingly with four of the chief ladies of the ballet corps. The ballet was La Paystoend Suppose, upon which the curtain fell before the voticlusioil. the repetitions of the operatic music having swallowed up too much of the time to allow the completion of the afterpiece. COVENT-GARDEN. HER MAJESTY'S VISIT. On Saturday night her MAJESTY honoured Covent-gardent theatre with her presence. Her MAJESTY went quite privately, as she had done to [holy-lane, attended solely by Lord and Lady HOOD, arid. Master AUSTIN. It was only a few minutes before her arrival that her MAJESTY'S in tention was announced at the theatre. alien mime diately.the stage-box, which had been previously engaged, was set apart for her reception. About a quarter before eight o'clock, steady at the con clusion of the first act. the box door was thrown open, when her MAJESTY. leaning on Lord HOOO, made her appearance. She was instantly recog nized, and her entrance was hailed with one universal shout of applause, accompanied by waving of hats mid handkerchiefs. which lasted for several minutes.' When the cheering had partially sulonded, there was a cry of" God same the Qween !" from a!l parts of the house. After some *hurt delay (during which the cheering continued unabated), the performers all came forward and sung thy national air of " God save the King," in which M IPS STEPHENS, Mil.. HALLANDE, Miss Fool's, and Mr. DURUSET, took prominent part.. The whole audience joined, and at the end of every verse, the cry of " God save the Queen !" resounded like a peal of thunder through the walls of the Theatre. The entertain ment of the eveuing was SHAIIISPEARE's play of The Tempest, which has beers lately altered and adapted for representation. The new music has been judiciously selected by Minor from the coal positions of H•YDN, MOZAIT, Bit•HAM, and many other eminent composers. The scenery is magnificent to the highest degree. Mr. MACRNADT gave to the character of Pros pero its full effect. Miss HALLANDE in Miranda. and Miss Stiotaxos us Doriada, gave univer sal delight. lu the Echo song, particularly, they charmed every ear by the melody of their tour'. At the conclusion of the play, the cries of " God save tie Queen !" were repeated, and the national an them was again sung. The swine enthusiasm and harmony prevailed during its repetition as at the commencement, +Ma was only interrupted by the discordant hiss's of a " few lover*.of order," who made their way into the pit at half-price. Her MAJESTY then bowed most courteously to the audience. and retired amidst the warmest acclama tions. The house was crowded to excess. Several persons of distinction graced the fashisniable circle. Saturday night the Princess AUGUSTA, attended by the Counter► Dowager of CARDIO• N. the Conn tea Dowager of HsacoutT, and General CART WRIGHT, honoored Cot ea-garden theatre with her presence. Her Kuysl Highness sat in the King's private box. _ _ The late aquatic excursion of the Princess AUGUSTA to Woolwich, was for the purpose of iii speciing the yacht which is preparing to convey her Royal Highness to Germany, Etc. to visit her Royal relative*. Hyde Park yesterday was crowded with equi pages of s brilliant description, many of which had the appearance of being newly launched. The visitors had frequent opportunities fur quiet conver sation, the carriages being often at a stand fur some minutes. Thu equestrians also mustered in great force.

BRIGHTON, MAT 17. At the Pavilion all Is tranquil, and as dull as quiet—the gloom which envelopes it also envelopes the town. Nothing deserving of notice, with the few of the fashionable world remaining with us, has minuted for several days past. The rides and walks have been deserted during the day, and no place of public resort has offered sufficient attraction to induce sociable meetings in the evening. The King's visit to Ireland is here regarded as certain. It is supposed that bis Majesty will afterwards go to Hanover. MAY 19.

DWILIN, MAT 16. • TM ROYAL VISIT. We hove the pmmlaidou of a distinguished persouage, officially eonneeted with this country, to announce, that in a personal eommeaseation with the Sovereign a very few days ago, when the subject of bit Majesty's visit to Ireland was purposely introduced, his Majesty was pleased to express himself as follows—we may be understood as quoting his Majesty's own words:—" Nothing shall prevent iuy going to Ireland this summer."

If all things could be re stored exactly to their relative position thirty years ago, neither hardship nor distress would ensue-- But, unfortunately, it is only in prices of stock that the resemblance between the two periods can be seen ; all besides is as different as poverty is ;:;•,;
