MUSIC.

JULLIEN'S PROMENADE CONCERTS.
Last night M. Jollion began his series of
node counts in Covent Garden Theatre, traZ
made arrangements with the directors of the Royal
Italian Opera for the occupation of that house for
five weeks. The theatre is fitted up according to his
usual plan, the pit and stage being thrown into a
vast promenade, in which the (=lntro is placed,
with refreshment and reading rooms (plenti-
fully supplied with journals and periodi-
cals) behind. The house, moreover, is splen-
didly decorated. The great chandelier is now
surrounded with six weight smaller ones, filling the
theatre with a blaze of light. A new dress circle of
open boxes has been erected along the front of the
grand tier, which greatly enlarges the accommodation
at the house, and, filled with company, chiefly ladies,
had a gay and brilliant effect. Jullien's orchestra (as
Is wen known) has always been of great magnitude
and of the highest quality, being composed of our
most eminent performers on every instrument. This
muss he has made an improvement upon it, by
doubling the softer wind instruments; that is to say,
hawing two principal and two second flutes, two prin-
cipal and two second oboes, two principal and two
sound clarinets, and two principal and two second
Insmoss. In this, we think, he hes dose right;
setaWishing a more correct balance between those
iestrunsats and the great body of stringed instru-
ments whisk he employs. The effect was certainly
exoellent. He has engaged that most brilliant and
attrestin singer, Madame Gutsier, for the whole
mks.
The assent of last night was made up, on the
whole, of admirable materials, though it presented
little novelty. The first part consisted of Weber's
Overture to Euryanthe ; a Quadrille by mullion on
subjects from the Mode du Nord : the Funeral
March from Beethoven's Sinfonia Eroiea ; the finale
to the Soisnambuks, " Ah, non giunge," sung by
Madame Gassier ; the first movement of Mendelssohn's '
symphony in A minor ; a solo on the ophicleide, played
by Mr. Hughes; a pretty waltz of Jullien's milled
'0 La Belle do Village ;" and lastly, the well-known
"British Army Quadrille." All these pieces were
admirably performed, listened to with the utmost
attention, and most warmly applauded. Madsen
Gassier was hailed with acclamations from all parts
of the house; and her aria, which she warbled with
marvellous brilliancy, was loudly encored.
The rest of the concert went off less smoothly. The
vast promenade had been completely full from the
beginning of the evening. But now it had got more
than full—eo excessively crowded, that the pressure
had the effect of producing uneasiness, which gra-
dually rose to turbulence. The second part began
with the well known selection from Don Giovanni,
in which the solo parts were admirably executed by
Messrs. Barret, Baumann, Hughes, and Honig. This
was followed by a military galop, founded on the
" Trumpet Call of the &saves," a composition of
great fire. Next came the Minuet and Trio from a
Symphony by Bristow, an American composer whose
name is beginning to make some noise among his
countrymen. We could not judge of his merits from
so slight a fragment, which was a rapid scherzo, in
imitation of the manner of Beethoven. By this time,
too, the crowd in the promenade bad become so
noisy that it could scarcely be heard. M. Jnllien
was obliged to break off in the middle of the move-
ment, sad to wait some time before be could resume
it. Madame Gassier then came forward; her ap-
pearance produced comparative quiet, and she sang
" 0 Inca di quest' anima," and the favourite waltz
which she is in the habit of singing, most charm-
ingly. From that time the concert went on with
repeated interruptions, and in the midst of shouting,
yelling, pushing, and fighting. At one time several
policemen made their appearance and seemed
to restore order for a moment ; but the dis-
turbance went on crescendo till the end of
the performance ; end even after M. Jullien and the
performers had left the orchestra, and after all the
company in the boxes had departed, the props in the
promenade still remained for some time longer, bawl-
ing and yelling from mere wantonness and not know-
ing for what. The whole exhibition was most dia-
-1 creditable to the persons engaged in it—the people
for whom this elegant and inexpensive entertain-
ment bad been provided. It formed an unpleasant
contrast to the very becoming and decorous beha-
viour of the equally crowded audiences who have
frequented these concerts for several years put.

DRAMA.

SURREY THEATRE.

A new drama in three acts, was produced here
last night under the title of Loos and Hower; or Soldiers
el Hone—Heroes Abron4. It is from the pea of Mr. J. E
Carpenter; and although somewhat late In the field, ap-
pears to be Ottoman as a kind of psics d'eccasion, the incidents
being largely mixed up with the resent stirring events of
the war. The piece opens in sa English isountey village,
where Captain Mei,ills (Mr. Richards), a rose soldier, falls
kMe with the miller's deughter, Joky Gray (Miss E.
Esioders), and plans her forcible abdeetions. Is this he is
roiled 1•7 a private soldier of his owe regiment, George St.
Melt (Mr. Creirwith), who, to prevent the oilman en the
girl he himself loves, Brie ea his tracer. A courtnartisl
and sentence of death are the uneasy malts ; bat the pri-
soner's escape is effected by the girl whom he has preserved,
and the libertine officer is deprived of his cosamissiou
for various if figUlSTitilP. It the third act we fled all the dre-
Medi persona before Sebastopol, St. Clair baying Mesa to the
command of his regimen; and the erdeetest Captaia Melville,
• disgraced outcast, is on the point of being orrestol as a
&min spy, when he saves himself by enlisting as a private
soldier in the regiment sommanded by St. Clair. In the
storming of the Roden, St. Cleir's life is preserved by
Melville, who is atonally wounded, sad dies soliciting the
pardon of the men whom be has injured, sad who tarts out to
be his brother, and rightful heir to estates of whieh he has
bus defrauded by the repentant villain. Of coarse then is
an underplot, and of atom Mr. H. Widdionsb (the
popular low cousedias of this establishment) is the mails
support thereof. This gentleman. as a waiter driven to

The pine was completely sacesssful, sad the multitudi-

dialogue is plentifully interlarded found raper sirs echoes in
