TREAM:ES.

ha.d. to room yesterday td state that Drury
tane Theatre opened for the season
.on .Sattirday
last, with The Honey Moon, and No Song No
Supper.. There Was a very numerous audience,
who warn-fly:applauded all the performers on their
entrance. Mr. PENLEY appeared for the first titne
on the. LondOn Stage, and period-lied the part of
Jaques; in therPlay.--lie is a yOting -Man; and
seems to possess some talentS for low Couiedy.

The Comedy of lOhn Bullintroduced two new.
Performers, last night; at Covent-Garden Theatre,
who are, however, by no means new to the Stage.
The part of Dennis Brulkruddery was represented by
Mr. MARA, a native of Ireland, vino is well known
at several of our. Provincial TheatreS. He • is' of the
middle size, and is calculated to be of use •to the
Theatre in. Jrish.Charaeters.. His voice; iti_ speak-
ing, very int\ch resembles that of his coiintryinan;
JOHNSTONE, and he adopted the style in _which that
Aelor performed the charader: in question; ,but
by no means with .equal effeCt. He was, !lOW-
ever, well received, and encored in the,Epilogue
Song. , • •
The other novelty was Miss LOGAN. (not as stated,
a sister of Mrs. GIBBS or any relation of that actress),
from the Newcastle Theatre. Miss LOGAN is a well-
formed, elegant Girl, and will be really a considerable
acquisition to the Theatre as a generalaCtress. She
-performed the part of Mary, in the Play; with truth,
simplicity, and feeling. Her action unaffeCted,
her voice full.and clear, and her articulation distinct.
She was much applauded. The !part of PereBrine
,was sustained by PORE, vice COOKE; for the first
time, and his performance was a very respe&able
support to the Piece. Mrs. 4LOVER took the part of
Lady Caroline, a character below her pretensions, but
which her talentsraised into more consequence than it
has hitherto possessed. LEWIS,FAWCETT4EINIEEY, and
the rest of the Performers, received a liberal greetingas
they respeCtiely entered, and they acted with their
usual spirit. The Farce was The Miser, and Miss
LOGAN appeared again in the part of Lappet, in which
she displayed the variety of ler powers, as it is es-
sentially different from the other charaCter, and in
which she appeared to still more advantage, as it is
evident that her forte lies in the:sprightly charaaers
of middle life. The House was very well attended.

The Hay Market Theatre concluded a very pros-
perous season last night, with the Farce of Modern
Antiques, the Comedy of !Pays and Means, and the
dramatic sketch of Catch Min Who Cana Mr.
WINSTON, one of the Proprietors, and who occa-.
sionally ventures forward as an aefor, delivered the.
following farewell AddreSs, which was well re-
ceived :
" Ladies and Gentlemen —This night concludes a Season,
the success of which has strongly proved the continuance of
that ample encourageniem so long bestowed by a liberal
Public on this Theatre ; and calls for the warmest acknow-
ledgments horn the Proprietors. The honour devolves on
me to express to you their gratitude for your past favour, and
to assure yon'that it will he their pride and study to merit it
in future:, The Performers, Ladies and Gentlemen, beg
you to accept their humble thanks for the genCrous support
you have given to their effirts ; and we, most respettfully,
take our leave,"
