SURREY,

This Theatre, under an entirely new management, is
making great exertions to secure public patronage and
favour; and if the performances at it continue. to be
brought out in the same spirit as they were on Saturday
evening last, the Managers may confidently anticipate a
successful Season. The Gipsies Haunt, or th:• Caverns of
the Clyde, which is a very interesting melodramc, is got up
with an attention to scenery, not at all inferior to tither of
the great Winter Theatres. The acting also was of a
very respectable character, we allude particularly to Mr.
11. Kemble, and Mrs. Young. Some of the tricks in the
Pantomime of Fairies Paradise were admirable, both for
their novelty and style of execution. The Theatre has
been recently decorated, and its embellishments are in ex-
cellent taste ; it is, in short, one of the prettiest in
London.
