MUSIC.

MISS POOLE'S CONCERT.

Thu accomplished and deserving lady had a con-
cert last evening, at the Hanover-equare rooms, and an
overflowing audience showed the public appreciation of her
character end talents. Though really a young woman, and
in the fullest pommies of her peters, Mu Poole may
almost be called a veteran in her profession ; for she lint
distinguished herself when a mere child, and has for many
years bean amocieted with the pleasantest reininiaceacee of
the English spent stop. Unhappily, there is now no Eng-
lish opus stage: if there were, she would be so great an
ornament bit as ever. In the present mate of things, her
• ea an actress is gone, and we can no longer enjoy
Ur end spirit in that capacity. There is 'dß
the however; and there we find her, as she
has al ism, cao of the purest and moat genuine singers
that the igWL school hr ever pawc ned.
me programme of lest night's comet presented an ample
end nriedissiootion of immilmt music, in which many of
our most mint perhemen took past. As vocalists there
were Meeksme Order, Madame Anna Thillon, Mies Birch,
Madams Wall', KIN Poole, Mies Dolby, Mr. Charles
Brahma, Mr. Wilbye Cooper. Mr. AL Smith, Mr. J. L.
Didion, Mr. Winn, and Mr. Bodda. As instrumentalists
Moen. Santee, Deichmann, Barnett, Thomas, Nicholls,
Chefire, end Regnadi. Miss Poole rang Gluck's famous
air, 'CU far sees Bundler;" Idendelmohn's four-part
wing, 0 hills, 0 vales of pleasure," with Madame Weiss,
Mr. M. Smith, and Mr. Winn; Glover's duct, "The Rhine
Maidens," with Miss Birch • a new song, " l'm a merry
Savoyard," composed expressly for her by Belie M.
and the
" RaisPlm." from the }}ills du Reyilneret, with Mr. Bodda.
It is warmly nsomeary to add that her reception was cordial
thi higlmet degree.

Me CiZO. CASE, formerly known as a skilful
violinist and recently as an excellent performer on the con-
certina, announces his annual cottesrt mototre to take place
at Exeter Hall on Monday evening next. The programme
liulds out promises of varied and manifold atm:lams.

DRAMA.

LYCEUM.

Last night, in consequence of the arrangements
for the opening of the opera season, Mr. Dillon brought his
management of the theatre to a dose for the present, and
took his benefit in the eharaetas of Richelieu and Belphegor.
In the latter personation Mr. Dillon won his Bret and RIC,
baps his greatest swear.. It is quite natural, therefore,
that Le should elect • character in which ho is so favour-
' ably and so widely known to the public fur hie adieu night.
Thou who have witnesaill Mr. Dillon's performances in other
and more trying rats must be quite aware that his dramatic
power is not limited to that clue of drama of which Bel-
Oleg. and Don Caesar de Ragan ere the best known types,
though in them his art is moat consummate. In the more
arduous walks of the drama, where breadth of colouring and
pathos are Ices required—where the delineation requires
concentration, and sharp, clear, and wall-defined outline—
he ham also achieved no small nueeen, and there are moments
when he suddenly startles the audience by reveletion, of un-
expected force. This was the case in his representation of
Richelieu last night, which was eminently succ.sful.
At the close of the play Mr. and Mrs. Dillon were rolled
before the curtain and received the plaudit. of the audience.
Mr. Dillon then addressing the audience said that he had
intended ca that occasion to make a set speech, but believing
in spontaneity, he thought it better to trust to the expression
of the heart, and from the bottom of his heart Le thanked
the public for the kind support they had given hint during
his management. (Applause.) IA hen he first assumed the
responsibility of the management he had enemies—as who
had not some ? It was said that at most he could
not keep the theatre open more than three weeks,
and that he would certainly break down in four or Ave.
But he had disappointed that expectation—(applause)—he
earned the theatre through the season ; be met every en-
gagement he had contracted, and at the clew ho had a hand-
some remuneration for his own services. (Applause.) He
believed that with such support as he had received be would
have been able to continue the session with succors all through
the summer; but he wee not desirous of losing the prestige
which the theatre would acquire from the perfornemee of
the opera. He had many novelties in preparation, and
amongst them a play by Mr. Leigh Hunt, which he would
bring forward neat sawn. (Applause.) He regretted that
the illness of Mrs. Dillon obbged him to withdrew Mr.
Marston's drama so soon—that would also be brought for-
ward. He could not on such an occasion refrain from thank-
ing- his company, who acted with him in the hest spirit.
(Applause.) here was not, he believed, a single dispute
awe Le &Beamed the management of the theatre. (Ap-
plause.) He also begged to tender Lis most grateful
thanks to the eondui tors of the preen for their fair and
candid criticisms. lie repeated that be felt most grateful to
the public, and he bid than when till August flint.

Mice Woolglu eras then celled for by the audience, and
had to acknowledge the farour with which she was greeted.

The play of Belpheyee nue then proceeded with, when
mute of the other favourite actors of the theatre who had not
appeared in the first piece receive.' their meed of applaute
from the audience.
