'the cost it at present uncommonly inning, though the piece has been witnessed under a great variety of changes, all of which were considered perfect.... The addenda are Signor and Madame Da Iltsattlir, and a very important addition they make. They 'hive already been described in other pieces, and especially on their first appearance. It is scarcely necessery to remark how exactly and agreeably Ins qualifications are fitted to the past of Leporello, which he sustained with an unfailing continuity of natural humour and unrensitted strength of voice throughout. Madame DR BISONEY, with her luxurious debility of voice and feminine strength of affection, gave the kindest and most imprin. sive effect to the part of Domes 4111811. Madame CAMI.ORESI was the ruling charm of the evening. It would be unavailing to compare her with her late predecessor, in the part of Zerlina. Her de cided superiority ill amatory pathos, so wonderfully evinced in the opera of 'Ate, must of necessity qual,fv the admi,ation which she attracted in de lineating the wayward fondues. of this village wench. But had it not been for the impres sion she made in the former piece, her Zerliaa would have been reckoned incomparably perfect. AIIORISANI is excellent, as all the town knows, both in the fisherman and the ghost of Doss Pedro. He takes credit for most in the latter, as he is in deed the only bass who has been able to keep his voice discernible amidst the supernatural tumult of sounds in which the composer has launched. the incident of his visit to Giotaini. Toast and Miss MORI acquitted themselves well, iu Mario and Elvira. The whimsical and interesting billet of The Carnival at Venice followed, wheat the corps pat out its concentrated force of attraction. To NOBLET, Biel. MELAMIR, and ALMST. were added Mademoiselle Da VAREPlllx,who has already appeared, and Signor, or Mr. COULON'. who is a fresh snivel from l'aris, and was brought forward here for the first time. He is a small figure, of graceful dimensions, with tapering extremities-- altogether well-made for the profession. His performance goes beyond his appearance. He does not situ at aerial boundings—his et, le is se cure, and not over sinking ; but it is of a light and nimble character, and appears to be the result of well-sought proficiency. DR VARRIIINI was highly applauded. She has a foot of astonishing buoyancy, and her shifting. are effected with a fairy's motion. FANNY BIAS dors not come at all short of the gallantry with which Mr. T. Moose praises• her. We never witnessed a dance which was better received titan the Pas de Trois between her, NORLICT, and ALBERT, to the charming mili tary movement in Figaro (Not pin andrai).-- ALBSRT seemed to have no more to do with the ground thin Hermes in mid-heaven ; and for the ladies, their steps were 'tamely grave enough to bend the grass blade, while their motion seemed light enough to have resulted from the impulse of soft gales upon their elvish figures. The quaint. ness of the whole entertainment was uncommonly agreeable, and accorded excellently with the has gering warmth of summer evening. The house was crowded with company of the highest quality. There were scores of Peers and Commoners of distinction in the pit. The boxes "were plenteously graced with fashion and beauty. OPERA ADELPHI. The task, at all times an herculeaiior;,but presenting at this moment difficulties req.iiring a rare concentration of dramatic genius and ver satility of power to surmount, of furnishing an evening's entertainment for an audience from the individual exertions of a single performer, was at tempted last nig!it at this little theatre by Mr. KENT, late of the Theatres Royal Drury-lane and &tight!) Opera-house, with a degree of Success far exceeding any expectations which our recollec tions of the late Mr. DIBDIN, Mr. R. PALMER, Mr. BANNISTER, and the unrivalled MATHEWS, permitted us to indulge. The entertainment con sisted of diversified clinracteric sketches of men and manners, drawn front life, and illustrated by the exhibition of portraits, something in themanner of the Lecture on Heads, with which moat of our readers mist be familiar, and interspersed with songs and anecdote. The sketches are chiefly humorous and satirical, the satire being wholly free from personality and 'ill-nature, and the humour light and social. la enumerate the characters pourtrayed would exceed our limits; we must therefore be voided( with briefly mentioning a kw of those which pleased the most, which %%ere, ilminadab Luaklocks and '1 itno. thy Tripeface ; Connubial Happiness and Misery ; suds the Barber ; the Old Bachelor ; Sam Sprit sail; Signor Smoculatojo, with a mock Italian bravura, which war encored, and the tale of the young female mendicant ; Enoch I ssacliar, the Jew ; Steeffist, the parish officer ; and St skirt. These were particularly applauded, and excited much laughter among a must respectable audience. SADLER'S-WELLS. On Monday night another new entertainment was added to the many attractions which this theatre hos held forth during the present season, and, like those which have preceded it, it hug given universal delight. It is • comic pantomime, styled, Har lequin at Home, and is a rich treat to the lovers of jollity and taught's'. It is founded nit one of the Fairy Tales (The Two Fountains), and gives a most delightful representation of that ingenious and instructive fable. Tbe story runs thus : Linnet, a powerful Fairy, having been transformed into a bird by us evil genius. arm doomed to retain that form till rime benevolent mortal should lee her freedom; being pur rued by a hawk, is remised fioin destruction by Flora, a Welsh Frariant Girl. Ifer !dainty obtained, she is instantly restor ed tii her former shape, and to reward the humanity of Ro setta, ronthiet.iiier to a sacred grotto, in which are the fours. twins of Joy arid Sorrow, whose waters are sweet and biller. These. though biddro from the eyes of mortals, are by the Fairy's power moldered •isible and accessible to her alone, Driukiwg from the 'meet water, sire is put in possession of her wishes, but iisdnlging in Orel to excess, she becomes eflallk.lllrell of Fully, when Mo.. hr them a source of evil and dirroutent, she ha , reequir to th e ' bitter spring, a likb r e_ stores her to a proper sense, and the just value of the gifts of The scenery is truly magnificent—the fairy grotto and magic fountains are done with such exquisite beauty, and at the same time so naturally, its almost to make us believe for a moment the-e en chantments real.

If a rapid succession of the best estri:rtairiments, a liberal engagement of the best performers, and a judicious arrangementof Abe characters suited to them, he the criterions of goad management, we do not know a place of public amusement alitch P tumid ecjoy a larger portion of public favour than Sadler's Wells. DISTUR lIA NCR AT DilUitY-LAIVE THAATRIt. On Monday night last Mr. Wallack took his benefit at this theatre. The entertainment s coo stating of the serious opera of Artaxerxes, and the trio, scene from Shakspeare's play of The Mer chant of Fremice, in which Mr. Wallack undertook to perform the part of Shylock, after the outliner of Mr. Kean. The meter-drama of 7We Blind Boy was the afterpiece. At an early hour the house wag crowded so excers; rind the opera, which was announced " by express desire," was performed in a style which reflected much credit upon the whole of the corps drontotique, especially Miss Wilson, whoa. !rowers were never exerted to greater effect. The br.t part of the opera Poised off pewee-; I ably till the conclusion or the first set, when, after the fall of the curtain, several printed bills were thrown into the pit and boxes, of one of which the following is a literal ropy:-- "TO THE BRITISH mem. € 1 Is it possible that an assembly of ' Englishmen. ac companied by the fair *ex of their country, will allow • ppblic servant to come forward and initial in the most dis graceful way it (linen, whose injuries and insult, every independeot mind moat deplore, sot only for her protection bat their owe ?

Mr. Wallack, at length, made his appearance, and 4 , The Queen ! the Queen !" and .1 An Apology." was vociferated from all quarters is, an indignant and menacing manner. till • Gentleman rose in the pit, and, addressing himself to the audience, suc ceeded in calming the agitation which prevailed. The Gentleman said he had but little doubt that every person present wished well to the establish ment, and be felt also convinced they were friends to Mr. Wallack, who appeared, unfortunately, to have incurred their displeasure. He felt assured, therefore, that no apology would be demanded of that Gentleman inconsistent with the feelings of an Ettelislimin, and unbecoming them to receive. He craved their attention to the object of their dis pleasure. Mr. Wallack then bowed respectfully, and addressed the audience to the following effect : " Ladies sad Gentlemen—This disturbasee is • dame of the moat each* regret to me, though It is no smielelbas !ex pected. I ant charged with having offered an insult; ai I am a man and at. Euglishinan, I assure you it was most re mote from my itatcotion to do soy Wog that could bear this interpretation. I am addressing an English audience, and feel convinced they will believe me when I state upon my honour, that the words I made use of were not uttered through any political feeling, our were they of • tendency to excite your prejudice towards me, had it not been for the very gross manlier its which they were misconstrued by the Tines newspaper. " Ladies and Gentlemen, with your leave I will now repent the very word.:—.

This explanation satisfied the house, and the per formance proceeded without further interruption. The light borne volunteers, commanded by Col.

A case which excited a considerable degree of public inte rest was tried before his Lurdshipaild a Special Jurj . The circumstances were these :—Richard Davis, a young gentleman or most respectable count XIWIS in this country, enlisted as a common soldier some years ago, in consequence of disputes with his family. He married, and •whilst lie was doing duly in London as a private in the guards, his wife was de livered of a daughter, who was christened l'Aerests Davit. Some time after the birth of this child, the father was killed at the battle of ‘Vaierloo. and in consequence of the decease of some r e lation s , th e little Theresa, though born under such adverse cir cumstances, became heir at law to an estate of TWO THOUSAND POUNDS A YEAR. Her claim, however, war impeached by the husbands ( and Keogh) of her two aunts (ihe ►t.ters of her father) who al ltgtd that she was a supposititious child; and it was upon this is►ue that the trial took place yesterday. Several witnesses, who came over from England, were examined on behalf of the child, and the testi mony established her legitimacy in so full and satis factory a manner, that the Counsel on both sides agreed it was unnecessary to prolong the iuvestigo- Nun and the Jury returned a verdict, " That The resa Davis is the legitimate daughter of Richard and Bridget Davis."
