THE KING'S VISIT TO SCOTLAND.—In part of
our last impression we announced, from authority,that his MA-
JESTY had finally determined upon visiting his northern sub-
jects ; and his arrival in this city may be looked for about the
middle of the ensuing month. We congratulate, our country-
men and our fellow-townsmen on this happy occurrence, as it
affords them an opportunity of expressing in their own warm,
.natural, and enthusiastic, manner, their feelings of hearty wel-
come. We trust that, in order to give the greatest eclat to his
MAJESTY'S arrival in his ancient metropolis; immediate Or-
ders will be issued by the proper authorities that that veteran and
distinguished corps of Highlanders, the Royal 42d, be, if pi-
sible, forwarded from Ireland in time to form a Body Guard to
their Sov'EnzioN, accompanied by their braVe brethren and
coTpanion,s in arms, the gallant Sctits Greys. These troops
eminently deserve the high honour of sueh a service. In re-
spect to the operations at Holyrood-house, we understand that
orders have been issued from the LORD CHAMBERLAIN'S
Office to Mr. TROTTER, his MAJESTY'S upholsterer for
Scotld, to make immediate preparations
T for putting the
royal apartments in the Palace'
in a proper state for the re-
ception of our .SovEitroif, and that Mr. MASH is hourly
expected in town to see the orders executed. It is said that
the principal: floor of the Palace is only to be fitted up, and
that his MAJESTY takes up his private residence at Dal-
keith Palace. An order has been received in town by, Mr. G.
HUNTER, clothier to the KING, for the making of a superb
and splendid dress of the Highland garb of the royal tartan for
his MAJESTY. This Gentleman has furnished similar dresses
to the Emperor of RUSSIA, Dukes CONSTANTINE, NICHOLAS,
and MICHAEL, and Princes of ORANGE and ESTERHAZ Y.—

THE THEATRE.—The serio-comic Opera, en-
titled The Africans, drew a very numerous
audience to the II AviviARKET ThEATRE last night.
It is a piece from the fertile pen of Mr. COLMAN,
and consists of that whimsical mixture of the
ludicrous and the pathetic, in which his talents
have so often been exerted with success. The
chief character in this piece is *Mr. Ilenry Au-
gustus Mug, the Ivory Turner, of Snowhill, which
was, of course, originally designed for the sin-
gular humour of LISTON ; and though much of
its point is lessened, compared with the diplo-
matique correspondence, formality and etiquette
which took place at the petiod when the
play first appeared, yet there is enough of
genuine humour in the part to render it highly
entertaining. Such was the effect last night, and
LISTON'S triumph was complete. JONES was not
born for tragedy, and he is a fish out of water in
Madiboo. JOHNSON, in the second brother, is
too much inclined to copy the exclamatory gaggles
of KEAN-, which, of course, are not endurable at
second hand. Miss I3oYcz played the Mother's
part with great feeling, but her face was so little
marked by age that she seemed to be even a
younger sister of her three stout sons, or at least
the wife of one of them. Mrs. CHATTERLEY
also in the heroine was obviously averse
to putting her pretty face under a sable disguise.
Theatrical performers should be at all times at-
tentive to the dress and general appearance of
the characters which they assume, as they mainly
contribute to the delusion of scenic exhibitions.
The play was throughout much applauded.—The
second piece was to have been the farce called
Love Letters, but at the end of the Opera JONES
came forward, and informed the audience that
Mrs. VESTRIS was too ill to perform, bespeak-
ing their indulgence for the substitution 'of The
Agreeable Surprise.

The performance of Plays at Paris by an Eng-
lish Company is likely to be carried into effect.
Mr. PENLEY, who has tried a similar experiment
successfully at Boulogne, Brussels, Calais, &c. is
the projector of this plan, and, we hear, is pa-
tronized by the British Ambassadorq at the French
Courf. DOWTON, KNIGHT, and Miss M. TREE,
are already engaged ; and negotiations are pend-
ing with others, among which Mr. CHARLES
KEMBLE and OXBERRY are named. The Theatre
is expected to open in August.-7-(Morning Post.)
Mr. ELLISTON had yesterday the honour, per-
sonally, to subinit to his MAJESTY'S inspection
the plans' for the projected alterations of the
Theatre Royal, Drury-lane, which his MAJESTY
was graciously pleased to examine minutely, and
to favour with his entire approbation and sanction.
