111 Z REV. RECTOR CAMPBELL AND THE OPENING OF THE

MUSICAL, DRAMATIC, LITERARY, A'
ARTISTIC NEWS AND GOSSIP.

An English version of "Il Trovatore," and another
of Gounes ce Paest,"" ate in' rehearsal at the English
Opera, Covent Garden.
THEATRICAL AHCSEMENTA Iti" PAHIS.—The receipts
of the various theatres, concert rooms, and other places
of public amusement in Paris during the month of Sep-
tember, amounted to 1,358,8031'., beitte an increase of
182,316 f. over those of August.
After many years of anticipation it is again reported
that Meyerbeer's " Africaine" will be produced at am
early date in Paris, at the Imperial Opera, bat under
! the title of "Vasco di Gama." This work is said to
have been written previous to "Le Prophete," but
withheld from a want of confidence in the previous
management at the " Grand Opera." Madlie. Tedesco.
and M. Niemann are to be the soprano and tenor of the;
occasion.
A work of great interest has just appeared at Paris
under the title " Documents et Pieces Authentiques
' laisses par Daniel Mania ;" it is in two volumes, and
quite calculated to attract the notice of the public at the
present moment. The book is edited by a lady, Madame
Planet de la Faye, a friend of Manin, who has carefully
revised the papers which the former President of the
Republic of Venice brought with him into exile ; she
has caused a translation of these papers, and thus has
compiled a history of Venice from the years 1848 and
1849, which furnishes the most exact and minute detail
of this epoch that has yet been written.
"The Autobiography and Correspondence of Mary
Granville, afterwards Mrs. Delany, with many Distin-
gins • hed Persons of Her Time," edited by her grand-
niece, Lady Llanover, are about to be published by Mr.
Bentley. These memoirs extend nearly over the whole
of the last century, viz., from 1715 to 1788, and present
pictures of the court of George the First, George the
Second, and Queen Caroline, and of George the Third
and Queen Charlotte, whose friendship Mrs. Delaney
= enjoyed; interesting original letters of Swift, Welsey,
Dr. Youn author of " Night Thoughts," Lord Lans-
downe, theg, poet, Frederic Montagu, the Duchess of
Portland, the Countesses of Bute, Cowper, and Gower,
Hon. Mrs. Bosenwen, &c. The engravings include some
of the Welbeck miniatures.
Messrs. Hurst and Blackett, of Great Marlborough-
street, announce the following works in their list of pub-
lications forthcoming :—" Memoirs of the Courts and
vFCoaailanisi.nileyts,,DsotoufeduiniesWeilnirltiiszife„

Lowth, Esq., author of the " Wanderer in Arabia," &c.,

The winter season at Her Majesty's Theatre, which
includes both English and Italian operas, on alternate
nights, opened on Wednesday last, with the Titiens and
Giuglini party in " 11l Trovatore," when a new baritone,
Signor Briani made his first appearance in London, of
whom—though he was suffering from a slight hoarseness
—the journals speak very favourably. On Thursday, Mac-
farren's long-looked-for opera, "Robin Hood," was pro-
duced with a strong cast, including Madame Lemmens
Sherrington, Madame Lemaire, Mr. Simms Reeves, Mr.
George Honey, Mr. Patsy, Mr. Parkinson, and Mr.
Santley. Thehouse presented a brilliant appearance, being
crowded in every part; and the music, as well as its execu-
tion, gave universal satisfaction. Mr. Sims Reeves, the
critics inform us, has a part admirably suited to his
voice and the general character of his style, and he came
through the ordeal with all his usual success About the
acting, as well as the singing of Madame Sherrington,
the gentlemen of the press seem to have gone wild. For
our own part, we have always pointed to the stage as
the position she ought to assume, and are therefore not
surprised to hear how thoroughly successful this, her
first essay in opera, is considered by those best able to
judge. Mr. Halle, in his office of conductor, comes in
for his due share of praise. And so the gifted Mactarren
has at length been fairly heard, and given further evi-
dence that England may still be proud of native compo-
sition,—that the dramatic element has not been exhausted
in a Parcel, a Bishop, a Balfe. or a Wallace.

HOLLOWAY'S PILLS FOR TIM EFFECTUAL CURE OF DROPSY.—
The efficacy of Holloway's Pills in dropsy is extraordinary
They act with such peculiar effect upon the system, that the
fluids arising from this direful disease are imperceptibly
carried off, and prevented from any further accumulation.
The sufferer regains a buoyancy of spirits, and rejoices in a
completely renovated constitution. These admirable Pills
have a similarly happy effect on many other diseases, par-
ticularly liver complaints and chronic indigestion. They
act upon the constitution generally by purifying the blood.
regulating the secretions, and giving tone to the stomach and
kidneys. They are composed of rare balsams, without the
admixture of a single grain of any noxious substances. They
ar . as safe as they are efficacious.
