This wee as near an approach to • "Shakespeare night"
m could well be made without departing altogether from
the plan and lona of the ooncerte of the Pbilh•rmooi•

Society, of which, during the whole period of the society's
existence, great orchestral works have been • primary and
essential feature. The usual form of the concerts has on
this maim been combined with an infusion of Shakes-
pearian music in a manner which had • very agreeable effect.
We bad Beethoven's Pastoral Symphony. perhaps the most
poetical sad picturesque specimen of descriptive music in
mistimes ; the same composer's Overture to Coriolanus,
which, though not written for Shakespeare's play, is at least
on • Shakespearian subject; and a solo of the greatest
master of the violin the world ever saw performed, with
kindred geeing, by his only living pupil and representative.
These pieces were milkiest for the ordinary requirement.
of • Philharmonic Omeert ; ell the met of the mania was
either written expressly for, or suggested by, the poetry of
Shakespeare.
The concert was honoured with the presence of the
Princesses Helena and Louise, who with their suite and •
Bomber of persona of distinction occupied the places in trout
of the oreheetre usually set apart for members of the Royal
Family when they visit the Philharmonic Concerts.

DRAMA.

OLYMPIC.

The Shakesperian season has already begun in
good earnest. Drury-Lane, with Henry the ?mirth., has
taken the first place in the programme ; bet other ►ouses
are not ter behind. The performanoss at this theatre WA
sight were given in sid of the funds of the National Shake-
speare Committee, the now somewhat hackneyed Tickd of
Leave Mae being followed by Shakespeare's Tarring of the
Shrew, or as it is the fashion to all it when the immortal
" ieduetioa,' with Christopher Sly and the alewife is
omitted—Redierine and Petrmehio. The chino:sr of
Petruchio was performed by lir. Henry Neville with consi-
derable spirit sad humour. The part of Katharine wee
sustained by Miss Hughes, whose perfornianee of the
shrewish beauty both in her triumphant maidenhood and is
her humbled and terrified wedded life was equally SUOMI.
Put. Yr. Horace Wigan se the Tailor and Mr. Atkins as
drunk entsiod fully into the spirit of the fun of the cha-
mean, sad drew from the house roan of laughter. The
performence though given for this night only had evidently
bean well audied, and was on the whole creditable to the
artistic seal et the enter% out excepting the anfortusate
cook and his fellow servant., whose (sewn. terror at the
exaggerated violence of Petrachio contributed much to the
effect of the hureourous scones. The house was thinly
attended.

and dresses wash very good, and the whole performance
was very pleasing. The theatre was sot crowded.
