1 7' l '; Tr: THEATRE& We were never more astonished at the appear.tuce of Oils house than on Saturday evening. " Dark was the sighs—NW lied the stem;" hot the incleteletscy of the weather diet not prevent e moat splendid company from *remolding at this temple of taste and Not • single box was untenanted, and the pit was filled even to the over of "fop's row." Homes opera of It arbiere di :turiglii was admirably performed, and Ant otf, as it. hits uniformly done *ince its nitro election beet; with extrrordinary eclat. Signor Coact*, as Count Alwardwa, Signor N•I.DI, its figura. and Madame FODOR. as Rouse. were moat Nippy in the representation of their respective chip. teeter. mod were honoured with the constant ap plause of the audience. After the opera. a new ballet, entitled, La Fee Crgele, competed by M. FAY'S% was performed. This feint-it* wag nit very destmetly told. 'netted of requeinting the audienee with the incidents on which it wes hooded, through the medians of aeries, recourse wee bad to • variety of serells—outs of them nearly as long a a bill in Cimmery—. which, being tar removed from the audience, it was impoisible to decipher. As fir as we could under stood the story is was this:— A certaiu Prince. on the point of marriage with a beautiful nymph, is suddenly deprived of his bride by the switchinetions of • fairy band. He is inconsolable for. his loss—and, after many entitlement adventures, is betrothed to the ugly fairy. Urgele. He retires to her eottage—wnd, when accosted by his got.. gnu-faced taste, is about to fly from her in disgust—when, 'soddenly, her features change to those of the hit one he was on the point of espousing—the cottage sinks to the ground—a palace rises—sad a splendid company appear ready to calibrate the marriage of the caution Prince with his lovely mistrees—.who appears to hare metemetphiwied herself for the purpose of trying the strength of his passion. Much good doming is displayed in the course of this ballet. The general arrangement is pleasing —the movements ale testsfol--oud great friicy is _ Mt. evinced in the grampiag sif the jtgiraates. and BAPTISTS were much and deservedly admired, in a variety of dances. But no part if the performance pleusii 05 so highly as a pas.de-den: by Mr. Ostia Ilitx, and, we . believe, Madame La BUXOM. It was • fine Specimen of all that is graceful in attitude--of that is ele. lint, and, at She setae time, agile sod vigor. ons in motion. The opsaimi of the pse.de-derx would afford an admirable study for a painter. This dance was most raptillrously applauded. In the movement with which the billet commences, Mr. OSCAR BYRN'S talents were also eminently conspi cuous. We are happy that so fine an uportunity was afforded to this excellent Artist for the display of his talents--wad, we trust, that the applause which wow showered on his perfortuance, on this oc . elision, will shew to the Manager the propriety of bringing him forward, as often as possible, in situ ations where his genius may base full *cops for its developenient. The ballet was received• with mach applause. COVENT-GA !DM Mr. ARNOLD'S operatic romance of The Desire Bridge was performed, for the first time at this theatre, ou Saturday night. The dramatic works of Mr. ARnOLD are very numerous, and, fur the most part, they have been ruceesrful. He has, like the great body of modern dramatists, acquired the happy knack of hitting on powerful stage situations, which, aided by gond music, good acting, and well painted scenery, seldom fail topless. an audience— whether jtnisly or not we mean not to discuss at pre sent. There is not one of this Gentlemen's produc tions mere remarkable for the species of skill to which we hate alluded—nor is there one of them, we believe, that has been more frequently performed— than that which was represented on Saturday night. Many of the airs, we particularly speak of those composed by Mr. BRARAM, have become popular favourites—and we hare rarely attended a public con. 4 'rt. or a private musical party, where the songs.— •• 71w' lore it warm restestik," and, 1 6 Is there a heart that never hied," were not heard with pleasure. Mr. BRANA.II, on this cccasion„ appeared as emit Belino, the character *hick he supported, when the opera was oisginally performed. at the Lyceum. We need not describe the reception winch this great ornament of the musical profession met with. Those wbe have heard hire--those who have any love for vocal excellence—will readily conceive that the greeting which Marked his entrance war enthusiastic. e HMI' heard Mr. BRAHAM with greater plea sure—and his delicious attains have often delighted our hearts. The power, the melody, the richness at his voice..-the -correctness of his judgment— auil the purity of his taste—were never sheen more conNicuously than in his execution of the music • • e"aa la the character of Coast Beliao—nsic tt. „hid, j u .:tfy ranks amongst his most happy efforts as a cmnpuser.. The encores were numerous. Not too numerous fur a lover or baraton7—but rather too t,rquelit, we think, fir the individual whoa, talents subjected him to so severe a proof of approba lion. Those songs in the opera, from the exe cut!on of witich we derive the greatest pleasure— and others, t finch appear to us of minor importance —"vote exerted. Amongst the airs which were most &H e i n ii .tv swig, and which were must re- Leslie-tidy *lauded, rr Fanegl sketch," was de cal:4lly the finest effort.

This is an unprecedented sale, and the advantages or it may be properly e►timated who► it i. recollected. that by far the greater majority of the works ex hibited were those of young Artists rising into life, end to whom patronage was more essentially neces sary: that patronage has been conferred at the late lixhibition in the only way it can be really eftrc►ive to the Artist, by the purchase of his Pictures. No sale of this kind can he so general as to ex.. dude room fur regret that some more Pictufts had not beets 'purchased ; but from those retnai ll ill g unsold the Artist can collect the useful information, that the public eye is chiefly directed to sent kis of moderate size, within the dimetniotss of what are called furniture pictures, a term created, we ima. gine, by the inadequate value heretofore set on works of Art, when they were merely considered (en conjunction with their framer) os parts of mere fanciful embellishment, and without reference to their higher character, their great moral energies, their inestimable faculty of presenting to the mind, through the medium of colour., au imprete.ive re presentation of all that is interesting, heoutiful, and sublime in past ogee, or dear and eventful in the present times. A juster notion of the delight and instruction which the study of the Fine Acts com municates has at length broken in upon the public mind, chiefly through the exertions of the Direc tors of the British Institution, and the stimulus they gave to the slumbering energies of the'Royal Academy. Though this most favourable change has taken place in the public taste, and throdgli St receives • stronger and increasing impetus at each successive Exhibition; it is yet obvious that the de. mood is is a great degree confined to such Pictures as can be placed conveniently and to advantage in apartments of • moderate size. The few princely Patrons of Art, like the Marquis of STAFFORD, and ether Directors of the Institution, whose 'W ifeless', capable of admitting works of any size, occasionally perchase large Pictures; but specu lating upon large dimensions is not always (or, in deed, often) attended with success, and well neighed Pictures "er moderate size are uniformly more Saleable, because the purchaser cannot fail to have the means of suspending them to advantage. We have no doubt that our Artists would have found it their interest to hive attended more to this ci Were Mr. HOFFIAND'iI fine histo rical picture of Jeer/aka, arid others of the saute size, executed on • smaller scale, it is reasonable to presume, from the number of good pictures sold, and the avidity to purchase at the late Exhibition, .they would have obtained a sale and price comma• aerate with their acknowledged merit. It is right to state, that the Artists receive with out the smallest deduction, the price paid at the Institution for their works, it is immediately bonded over to the. Artist, and mostly in the same cheek or cash paid in by the purchaser. When the exer tions of the Keeper of the Institution. MP. Venter/. are considered, his anxiety to accommodate the Ar tists, to urge the sale of their Pictures with the most disinterested impartiality. and to afford every ac eommodalion to the; public, it is impossible not to admire the mannerin which this Institution is con. ducted, and the effect which its chief officers. the Keeper, and Secretary (Mr. Bowe) give to the liberal views of the Directors.
