The eatramdinary attraction of Ptaaat EGAN'S
T 0,,, .sarl Jerry has inspirited the Proprietor of
this iThearre to advance another claim to public
favour. The subject to which we allude is that of
a new melo-drame, entitled The Batch Pirate, a
piece combining the highest recommendations of
interest. situation. and etrrcr. The scenery is at
once costly, beautiful, and Imposing. One of the
views is copied from the celebrated winter-piece of
TANDEM/ELT. The music is pleasing, and the
catastrophe terrifically grand and striking. The
house continues to be numerously and elegantly
attended. Several persons of distinction visited the
theatre in the course of last week.

Ssturday evening the entertainments commenced
with a new grand serious romantic melo-drams,
called The Solitary of Nowa Savage ; or, The
Fate of Charles the Bold. It embodies and ex-
hibits eke circumstances of a mysterious tale of
guilt, penitence, and unfortunate love, in the his-
tory of the hero from whom the piece takes its
title, sail that of an orphan of whose father he had
been the destroyer. It is almost unnecessary to
add, that it possesses a large portion of that in-
•terest which ever belongs to the strange and the
romantic. Among the theatrical accompaniments
employed to give the story its full effect with the
audience, the scenery is entitled to,particulasy fa-
vourable notice.; the' general character is that of
beauty and 'neatness of execution—but a single
one, that IV the summit of the monutain, was so
wittingly grand and elegant. as to elicit an EX-
pension of naivetes! applause. Oo the whole, we
have no doubt thot the melo-drama will become a
favourite.
