TEE ,~~r~l~ l ~~ f l~l7i~'f'd Amp' da Was teptated on Saturday, and tecelvt4 with increased applause, All that we have, indeed, said of this charming composition is more than tified by its success. Though this is a serious Opera, the music is so contrived as to redeye the' melancholy tenor of the Fate; and the loves 01' Rinaldo and Armide, derive additional interest trona the charms of harmony. BANTI, stimulated, no doubt, by the high repu tation of a rival performer, exerts all her pow•:r and all her skill. The result has augmented her e.ken fatoe, and abundantly gratified the Public.- . --Sne never sung better than on Saturday last, and in he.r chief Air was loudly encored. To procure this en core Lord GALLowAY most heroically led the , tn, and was enthusiastically followed by the Ata . lleoce in general. The incidental Dance went-of very well, and Mad. LABORIE appeared to great advantage.— The Machinery was managed with precision, and certainly with great eclat. The Magic Woed suddenly converted from dun shadows into the bril liant horrors of• the infernal regions, prc , thiced very fine etfea. But even this spielioid scerx sunk into comparative _usignificancc when the erwrin irnr3 coup d'ail was exhibited. The appearance of Ar rnida's magnificent Palace, falling in bl,z7ng the Dragons disgorging flames, and the sk,:vir fire, altogether pre,enred a scene of suJi varied grandeur, as powerfully' impressed the imagination. The concluding Dance was /ma, wliic;4 is it shewyand not an uninteresting Ballet, and n hich w as very much indebted for its effet to the LABORIES, D'EGVILLE, and.Htt.t.tcsnrAtc.

"ne names of these dramatic productions were, TheF.ast of the Statues, The Two qfficers, and /maginate9ll In each of these Pieces the Princess herself perf:bned, and the charatters she supported were so diversified as to afford great scope for the varie:y oraer talents. Indeed her theatrical powers would do credit to professional Perfbrmers. The Hon.KEPPti. CRAVE,: also distingnished his theatrical abilities with corsiderae succos. Mr. H. ANGELO assisted with much humour, and in the • course of the night gratified the an,lience wish a hum,:urous Song. • A Gen:]eman sung a work Song, with admirable ability. The Princes vered an Epilogue written by herself, acknowtedg dng that two of the Dramas were rie.:sl<ttions from ,he French, and humourously, yet modestly, f iring the preference to them in their present Engish form. After the dramatic Entertainm-n:s, a most splendid supper was given to the audience, consist ing of a profusion of every thing the season affords. , The quantity of fruit, indeed, was equal, if not superior, to any ever seen at this period of the year.

DELEY, Lord and Lady YARMOUTH, several Fo reigners of distinction, and many People of high Fashion in this country.
