AIIitISEMENTS.

CLAYTON HALL.—MISS JULIA ST GEORGE'S ENTERTA&'
RENT.—Greater familiarity with her subject on the part of
the artiste, and an increase in the number of the nightlf
listeners :to her characteristic stories aryl strains, tend t°
add to the liveliness and pleasure of the entertainnoilt;
The delightful personation of the lovesick Sappho, and
the very different character of Joan of Arc, with their or
propriate songs—so appropriate in their music, as to give
them a spmtaneous character—continue to receive the
plaudits of the audience, for their artistic elegance sij
noble sentiment ; and the Yankee help, that a‘,surdli
natural Mr. Jenkins; the " Spooney," Tuminas, and the
intensely lazy " Captain Crawler," excite risibility V rta
small degree ; the laughter being tempered with admire'
lion for the great talent and versatility displayed. 1:111ift
entertainment, considered musically, is of a very high 01'e
—being, in fact, a kind of opera—containing the great'"
diversity of musical idea. It is from the pen of Mr. J.
Duggan, and such of the songs as are salted to privs.°
singing, will doubtless become very popular. Tile ballad;
4, Those other Times ;" is a beautiful example of Vita
pathos. The sons of Sappho and Joan of Are, again, sfa
full of fire and dramatic power ; while the vivacity 9rl
humour of Tim Doolan and the postilion, display the o'll/'
poser's humourous powers. We would- remind our reader'
that Miss J.Lia St. George, with her vocll and perfOnalt
charms, cannot always remain with us ; her engagealel e
here is drawing to a close, and her promised appears°
at Birmingham and London, will prevent its renewal.

HERR REICHARDT.—The numerous English friends 0. r
p \pular German tenor, Herr Reichardt, will be glad to beet
that he has been singing in Paris with very great suoles;
and, in spite of the non-appreciation of German music I,
France, the most exigeant critics of the Paris press spatg
high terms of his singing of the melodies of Schubert s°l
Mendelssohn. The Presse, in noticing a privltie concert 3
the hotel of the Countess de L—, says :—" M. R sichsfa';
a tenor, Whom England and Germany have so Warn/1
applauded, sang with exquisite taste melodies of Schttber:
Mendelssohn, and Prince Poniatowski, the latter presiiiv't
at the piano. The success of M. Reichardt was brilPt
and complete ; his pure and flexible voice, and his 81°01
s'yle being universally admired," Herr Reichardt will 6ir°
at the Tuileries during the visit of the Grani Duke C°ll'
stantine of Russia. He has also been offered an engage;
meat at the grand opera. His first concert in Paris tal;e
place in the Salle Erard, next rat nth. •

representation of the liou bunt, fight, attack, defeat', ;01.'
capture of the denizens of the forest. The additione`u.se#

the curious to flock in multitudes to witness this cenneediJ
link 'twist man and beast. The arrivals of the tiger
tigress occurred on Saturdiy last. They are 5P1.'114.10
specimens of the feline tribe. The animated descrlPos
given, in a lecture like form, by the secretary, Mr. 11,01
Lee, gives universal satisfaction, and the various 1:911H3)
lessons which it promulgates, proves that the partYbtfel
delivers the same has not lest sight " that it is a deligioeth
task to teach the young ideas how to shoot."--Si'

C,,UNTEEFEIT FIVE-SHILLING PIECES.—At the Pr.°oo
time great numbers of counterfeit five-shilling 1):ti V;
r,?.ereeenting the current coinage of George wit 550
urge and the Dragon on the reverse, are being oit i 4
in almost every part of the kingdom. The countertiver,
compo'ed of a metal almost as white and heavy as
and, having the appearance of being much w0r,`",4'00,,°
public are deceived in three cases out of four in ni-c,
thorn ; the counterfeit has also a ring almost equ1,„„1.`,„00,,
genuine coin. Eagar, the superintendent of the 1/17,00;
police force, recommends that the surest way of
the genuineness of a suspected coin is to pass it ove`ffee
„ tooth, when the genuine coin will produce a smooth '4Ol/
whilst the spurious one will produce a perceptible
effect.
