PRIPArE THEATRES.

The Moursuov THEArItICAT.I, in the north of
Ire are the most striking faskionable meteor in
that catlntry. The elegant hospitality of the Noble
Viscount, a.ii his attention to his guests, are not
more admi ed than his condescension in descending
from the r:presentstiln of the gallant Hoopoe, to
that of My Lo-4 Dukr, in Higb Life Belo:: Stairs.
It was con,idered a most natural perbrmance, and
could not he equalled but by Mr. Caosse row's
nit, in the farce of the Dicoree. The scene with Mrs.
.kowerd was taken from life; nor can we wonder at
the richness of the colouring, when we consider how
often it was rehearsed, last winter, from Burlington-
street to Stratford place, and from thence to St.
George's in the East. Mr. H. Bu ['Lee was quite
at borne in Noodle; but he is so unassuming, seldom
soaring above an honest rustic, ind he possesses so
much good humour, we must forgive him it he he-
comes a noodle to please his friends. T:te most fa-
vourable report of the other performances is, that
they were, at least, geatteesaaiy.

Mr. Jontessone should certainly have played
Fd 4er Laic on Tuesday night ; there are so few
crpnrtuniries of bunging this excellent performer
b tore the public, that they should not be nr-
gleard. Mr. PAL1(111 did all he could for a pat t
so much out of his line.

stepping int. a miserable boat, from some wretched
houses, the thatch of which has been ate away by the

A worthy Cit, remarking that the present Lot-
terYPlan was very singular, an Irish Gentleman
replied, " Very singolor as it possesses rso•Schemes,
and far mere Capital Prises than were ever before
kr.:lnn with h.) few numbers to .fraw I" Although
ties skniods like a boil. it never :tele', contains irre-
futable facts. The Irish Gentleman might have
added, that the Scheme is .cm -alar also, from not
having Tao Blanks to a Prize !
