HAYMARKET THEATRE.
MR. HUDSON, alter a long absence abroad, made
his appearance on Monday night at Vile theatre, in
the character of Sir Patrick O'llenipo, in the Irish
Ambassador, end met vri,,h a cordial reception from a
crowded house. The engagement with the Spanish
troupe is drawing to a close, but the interest in their
performances has by no means diminished.

ADELPHI.
ON Monday evening this theatre reopened after a
short recess. The performances pommenced with
The Piscarded Son, the same cast in the prinpipal
characters being followed as on its original pro
duction last year. We need only remark that the
acting throughout was as good as ever, Miss Woolgar
and Mr. Leigh Murray calling, perhaps, for parti-
cular notice by the easy simplicity and correct con-
ception of character which distinguished their per-
formances. The novelty of the evening was the re-
appearance on the stage, after many years absence,
of Mr. Morris Barnett, in his well-remembered cha-
racter of Monsieur Jacques. The miserable refugee,
who for twenty years is sustained in all his misfor-
tunes by the one fixed idea that his wife will yet
come to him—his deep emotion as he hourly reads
and rereads her last letter, now twenty years old,
proiniAng to come soon "—his insane wanderings
down to the beach to meet her on her arrival, and
his bitter disappointment every day, yet softened
with the gleam of hope that tells him she will come,
" Yes, she will come, nut to day, no; male peat-titre,
to-morrow, yes, to-morrow she will comer—his care-
worn, grief.stricken mind, and the flashes of charac-
teristic gaiety that. sparkles out now and then under
all his privations and miseries, as he either antici-
pates the success of an opera which he has com-
posed, or cheerfully consoles himself with his piano,
for his want of breakfast—his intense happiness et
finding a daughter, and his deep grief on hearing
that his Mariana is dead—are all represented by
Mr. Barnett with a pathos and truthfulness scarcely
to be surpassed. The feeling with which he 'acted
throughout called fopth hind and cmitinued applause
at the close of the performance. Miss Woolgar sup-
ported the character of the daughter, and performed
the part in her usual charming and unaffected Fotylo.
The theatre has been thoroughly redecorated and
painted, and presents now a light and elegant ap-
pearance.

LORD JOHN RUSSELL has taken apartments at the
Crown Hotel, Scarborough, and was expected to reach
Scarborough on Tuesday last with his fainily. The
Earl of Carlisle is among the distinguished visitors
sojourning at Scarborough.
