LYNN THEATRE.

The spirited manager of this theatre,
Mr. Hooper,
has had considerable rivalry of late by the attractions
presented to the seekers after amusement by our cele-
brated mart, which, in its turn, had also an opponent in
the severity of the weather ; the clouds have now
passed away, and we augur great success to our
talented manager and company. We have had occasion
before now to speak of the general constituents of the
company and the class of entertainment, and it is
now our duty and pleasure to be able to record that
some of our finest dramatic productions have been
played most efficiently. Amongst the plays produced '
we may enumerate the Othello of oar immortal bard •
Richelieu;" .The Stranger; and Sheri lan's glorious
comedy of the Rivals. The principal parts of these
plays were sustained by Mr. Coleman,
