PRINCESS'S THEATRE.

An adaptation by Mr. Rophino I.scy,Ti one of
Auber's very early operas, was produced here last even-

Honey, is desirous of robbi:ig 11,r of her wraith by ma-

proved melodramatic fashion. The rubbers are ar-
rested, the Baillie is taken out of a fLur.bin,, to
which he has fled tor refuge; Louise is forgiven,
and all ends happily. The most amusing personages of
the drama, however, have nothing to do a ith the plot;
they are the farm servants, admirably acted by Oxberry
and Miss Poole, the latter of whom sung several charm-
ing melodies as she alone can sing them. She was en-
cored in a very exquisite ballad entitled "Once a
Shepherdess," which was well deserving of the honour.
Honey sang an air upon one note, which produced a
very quaint effect. Herr Mengia had also the honour of
an encore. The music contains the germ of many of
Auber's most popular composidoni. The house was
well attended.

KING'S COLLEGE HOSPITAL. The Right Hon.
the Earl of Carlisle has signified his intention of pre•
siding over the tenth anniversary of this admirable

name is supported by a very powerful list of stewards,
including the Prime Minister and several distinguished
Members of both Houses of Parliament; and it is ex-
pected that the interest of the occasion will be aug.
mented by the presence of the Noble Premier.

privately a smaller amount is on offer. None has been
imported, whereas duty has been paid up en extensive
