THE THEATRE.—It was erroneously stated -in
some of the Morning Papers of yesterday that
Mr. ELLISTON was to perform Belcour iu The
West Indian last night at Drury-lane theatre.
That comedy was, indeed, represented there,
but Mr. ELLISTON is not yet returned, and the
part was assigned to Mr. COOPER, by whom it
was supported with judgment and characteristic
spirit. Charlotte Rusport, the tender and lively
heroine of the piece, found an effective represen-
tative in Mrs. EDWIN; and Mrs. 11..taLowE's
Lady Rusport was not the least prominent in the
comedy, which; on the whole, was sustained in a
manner creditable to the theatre.
ENGLISH OPERA HOUSE.—Mr. MATHEWS re-
sumed his whimsical entertainment last night,
and in his stories, humourous songs, and imita-
tions, was, indeed, quite 'at home.
ADELPIII THEATRE.—A Miss MELVILLE ap-
.peared at this Theatre last _night, who pro-
mises to be no inferior ornament to the vocal
department of the stage.
Mrs. BLINN is engaged to perform a few nights
at Manchester. In the present dearth of great
talents, this actress is well entitled to a station
on the London boards.

Jaws' HoserrA L.—Yesterday the Anniversary
of this Charity, instituted for the maintenance of
aged men and women, and the education and
employment of children of both sexes of German
Jews, was celebrated at the London Tavern.—
His Royal Highness the Duke of SUSSEX in the
Chair. There was a large assemblage of the
Nobility and persons of the first eminence and
respectability.—After his Royal highness had
been regaled with a collation, he proceeded to
the Synagogue, where service was performed.—
The company then proceeded in procession to
the Tavern, to dinner. The children educated
in the Institution preceded the procession, two
and two, bearing the different emblems of manu-
facture, and various banners, on which were dis-
played different inscriptions. The aged men and
women were comfortably regaled at the Hospital.
At five o'clock, between three and four hundfed
persons of all sects sat down to a most sumptuous
dinner, and the choicest viands that could
be obtained for the occasion. After the cloth
was removed, grace was chaunted in the Hebrew
tongue. The children were then introduced by
their masters, with specimens of their trades.—
After the usual toasts were given, the health of
the Royal Chairman was proposed ; upon which
his Royal Highness, in a most eloquent and im--
pressive speech, expatiated on the great advan-
tages derived from this establishment. He de-
clared that in the visit which he had made to
the Hospital, he had paid particular attention to
its different departments, and was highly grafi-
tied by its administration. His Royal Highness
returned thanks, and proposed the health of the
Members of the Jews' Hospital.—Several other
Gentlemen addressed the assemblage, and the
company were entertained in the course of the
evening by several songs, which were executed
in admirable style by Messrs. Bryant, Buller,
Prynn, and various other vocal performers.—The
greatest hilarity prevailed, and the company did
not depart till a late hour.'
The Right Honourable the Earl of ELGIN has
again this winter given 176 carts of coals to the
poor of the parish of Dunfermline ; and it de-
serves to be known, that besides this most liberal
donation, as well as supporting the poor on his
own estates, his Lordship gives a hundred gui-
neas per annum to the funds of the Voluntary
Association, which was established about seven
years ago, for the support oT the poor of. the pa-
rish, and which has hitherto succeeded beyond
the expectation of its most sanguine friends.—
