tHEATRES.

OM►n& HONS.
The lishan Opera closed for the ersoon too St.
tardily light. The hoots - laded
• lull,

- was crocrop.. to excess
with a rant audience. The pit was filled at
the siting of the ehrtrin. After the .vela, the
national anthem, " God owe tke King," was %I%
in full cborth by the whole vocal atreugth of the
company. It derived peculiar interest from the
circumstance of the liitte'S departure for Scoilaud,
and imparted more thau ordinary plenum.

NOMA NI at.
At the present season of the year, when eyes,
thing wears a gay and smiling appearance, the mind
is most readily disposed to receive impressions of a
congenial description, •nd its efforts for the mpg..
sioo of melancholy thoughts are generally escensful,
as they are materially assisted by externel objects.
Those who are fund of theatrical entertainments.
therefore. are 'tiger for those performaucee which sill
act se" feelers" nista their sensitiveness of essjoyeasto
and draw forth " nothing loath" that goed-hasnom
which is delighted to find itself ushered into a scene
of gaiety and animation. The visitors of this
theatre, on Saturday night, had al} their mirthful
anticipations realized is ss full a degree as even
the auocialions of the Haymarket were calculated
to excite. The comedy of She Stoops to Conine',
and the excellent farce of Killing Ao ihrder, af-
forded most abundant exercise to their risible recAl-
ties. Mr. (.1. KawsLa's teem Meth*, ;mad Mr.
LISTON'. Tally i napkin. are well known, and con-
sequently admired parrorretances. They ava in the
very spirit of the auThor, and not the lees delightful
from repetition, for,like old wine, they hare acquired
a mellow richness, ind yet have not lust their ongiaal
vigour. Mr. itsTott in.de his eppeuratiee spin in
the afterpiece as 4poria &lei, and literally ex-
cited peals of laughter. It is impossible to with-
stand his look; every muscle of his face seems
under his entire command, and the effect is the
greater, as the changes in Ins ciunten.:l/71• take place
almost Imperceptibly ; the machinery (if the expres-
sion may he allowed) meets so smoothly, we are
caught unawares, and cannot help being surprised
at so much mervinteat, when the effort was slip/t-
-rend/ so inadequate to produce it. He win evil

scree where Ohne, of his

the stage of life, could not he istrpesseed in comic
effect.

The house Wes extremely well attended.
