We understand, that in consequence of the tines-

prolongs the Loc4on season, the Proprietors have
announced their intention of having a third Sub-

is to take place on Friday, the 19th, and three suc-
cessive Fridays. the 12th cf. June being allotted
for Madame CAT AL ANI'S benefit. Nothing has
been positively fixed as to the nature of the even-
ing's amuseswents: Luc it is supposed they will be of
a dramatic east, as the small but elegant 'Theatre
erected for Mr. Crtmeisa v, by that celebrated artist
Mr. Buss's°, (w:.O originally painted Drury-lane)
has been removed from his inaissim at GilweU, to
