111 xc~'s THILATRE.—Our Readers will per-
ceive, .by the announcement in our first page,
that the Opera, 66 II Ctociato'ia which
was in rehearsal for the benefit of Aladatne
RoNzI DE B 1 GMIS, has been postponed, as the
short space. of time rendered it impossible to pro-
duce it with the necessary effect; the fair song=
~tress has therefore substituted " Romeo e Giu-
lietta' " which combining her talents with those
of Madame. PASTA, promises to be as, attractive
as the abandoned Opera. We heartily wish Ma-
dame Roszt a successful benefit, to which, from
her professional merits, she is so well entitled,
and which, we trust, is ensured to her fro-, the
high estimation in which she is held t. 11.. mu-
sical metropolis.
