THE Orrai..--A very splendid new Opera Was;
brought forward last night at the King's Theatre,:
entitled La Motile di Cleopatra. The music was
composed by NA S OLIN I, and has been highlY admi red
on .the Continent. It is rather-. calculated to ope-
rate upon the feelings than to excite surprize. The
Airs assigned to GRASS INI are peculiarly,well suited
to her talents, and afford her fine scope for expres-
sion, of which she fully availed herself in singing as
well as in delivering the Recitative, and in her general
support of theeharaaer. Her person also well qualifies,
her to assume the part of this celebrated Heroine of
antiquity. The whole of her acting was indeed
striking, tender, and impressive.—BßAHAM is not
equally well fitted in person to personate the Roman
Hero, who was content-to sacrifte ambition at the
Altar of Love ; but he entered. into the part with
judgment, and sung with his usual skill. • The Opera
is presented to the Public with a degree of magnifi-
cence worthy of the subje&, and mu. 311 to the credit
of the, Manager. One of the scenes is particularly
striking and beautiful, and it is that in which thu
Lovers have their memorable interview; when C/eo-
patra appeared in her Gaily on the Cydnus, and •
Anthon'ij is seen in his triumphal Car. GRASSIN/
7was peculiarly atreaing,in the scene when she takes
leave of ber Children. The ,Audience, which was
very numerous,, and splendid, gave a very warns
testimony of admiration throughout the pe:furtnance
of tiiirmiw and c,lasesical Dranu,
