along, smack smooth—and no mistake !" The
plates, as usual, are first-rate—that wherein
the two gentlemen are resting from the labour
of " pheasant shooting" is finished with a
fidelity to nature and an attention to details, that
may be sought for in vain in works of more pre-
tension. " The Starting for the Cup" is not so
great a favourite with us, although an elaborate
and excellent engraving. With respect to the
various topics treated, those which eve like best
are the following :—" Condition of Hacks, Gip-
ping, &c. ;" Whiz's Birmingham " Back Par-
lour ;" Phenix on " Jockey Training ;" the
"Rambler in Wales ;" the " Devon and Somerset-
shire Staghounda ;" and " the Disputed Sussex
Country."

;ye had hoped to have seen Miss Tree. Mr Phelps
performed the part of Antonio with much propriety
and prepossessing manner. Mr. Walter Lacy took the
Bassanio, and, but for a certain consciousness of his art,
which he has ever about him, might be said to be a
fair representative of that fortunate gallant. Strickland
also did justice to the part of Old Gab°. Miss P.
Horton played 'Jessica, and sang very neatly. Buck-
stone played Launcelot Gobbo, and to give the idea of
the contrary promptings of the devil and his con-
science, introduced the put by running backwards and
forwards on the stage, and making all sorts of conical
gestures More he spoke a word. The' whole of the
character he performed with the manifeit desire of mak-
ing his audience laugh at any expense, and he suc-
ceeded.

Q UEEN'S.
The Iron Chest was performed at this little theatre
la t night. The principal part was sustained by Mr.
Grattan, who looked the melancholy and sensitive Mor-
timer well. Mr. J. Parry's Wi/ford, and Mr. Hollings-
worth's Adam Winterton had some good points, which,
in the latter case, would have been more numerous it'
Mr. Hollingsworth paid more attention to the fact
that old Adam had numbered fourscore. The enter-
tainments concluded with the farce of Perfection.

ASTLEY'S.
The Tournament, and the wonderful performances of
the Elephant in the circle, and the Fire Fiend, con-
tinue to attract crowded audiences. A novelty intro-
duced last night, called the Bazaar of Wonders, was
eminently successful. Mr. Ducrow has made an en-
gagement with Mr. Carter, the American Lion King,
of the Bowery 'near°, New York, and a splendid
drama wilt shortly be produced, in which he will
appear with the whole of his wild animals.
