OLYMPIc THEATRE.
A farce called An Organic Affection was produced
here last night. The leading idea is new and ingenious.
A drudge of a copyist, Mr. Bun, played by Mr. Compton,
going to
.the house of a popular dramatic author in pur-
suit of his calling, suddenly ascertains that he is left
heir to a fortune, and his employer—who, although
giving a magnificent dejeline on the occasion of a recent
dramatic success, is very hard pressed—expressing a
wish to sell his house, the enriched copyist buys it of
him, then and there buys the breakfast, and
offers to buy the guests, who sit down to table
with their new host. One of their number is a good-
natured doctor, who, foreseeing the scrapes into
which
the novas konto will be apt to fall, persuades him that he
has disease of the heart, and that it is Only by rigid
abstinence from all sorts of excitement that he can live.
The consequence is, that when an intriguing actress
makes love to Mr. Bun, he repulses her by the infor-
mation that he is her brother; and again, when Pene-
lope (Miss Julia Glover), a pretty little clear-stqrcher
who is fond of him, wishes to renew their familiarity,
he pretends that ho is her father. The bewildered and
horrified look of Mr. Compton, as, surrour.ded by every
species of excitement, he endeavours to keep himself
quiet, furnishes forth the stiple of the piece ; which
ends by the Doctor, who knows Penelope, prescribing
her to his patient as the best cure for a broken heart in
the world.

EXETER HALL THURSDAY CONCERTS.
The third of these concerts took place last evening,
on which occasion the hand of the Ist Life Guards was

usual a pima) and accurary. The madrigals were excel-
lently well executed, and the audience seemed delighted.
The solo performers were Miss Ransford, Mr. Swift,
and Mr. Bocida.

COFFEE AND EATING-HOUSE-KEEPERS AsSOCIA-
TioN.—Last night the annual ball in aid of the funds of this
most benevolent and useful association took place at the
Eagle Tavern, City-road. The association was established.
in 1837, and the object of it is to provide a fund for the per-
manent support of those of their own body, who, from reverse
of fortune, might be reduced from a state of comparative
prosperity to the alternative of dragging out a miserable
exi,tence, immured within the walls of a workhouse. Not
only does this institution contemplate the obviating such a
degradation to its members, but likewise to extend its bene-
ficent influence to relieve their widows from the consequences
of destitution, and to assist in bringing up their orphans so
as to render them good citizens and useful members of so-
ciety. It is gratifying to find that an institution, in every
point of view so praiseworthy, has met with extensive and
we'l deserved support, and it is to be hoped that the result
of the ball of last night, which was numerously attended, will
add considerably to its funds. It is unnecessary to add that
(lancing was kept up with great spirit till an early hour in
the morning.
