THEATRICAL DOINGS.

Matters are at present very stagnant in the theatrical world
but they are likely soon to be again in a state of activity. It
is understood that, unless some unforseen circumstances should
occur, Covent-Garden Theatre will open, under Mr. Osbal-
diston, on the 10th of September, with a company of remarka-
ble strength in the departments of tragedy and comedy, in-
cluding, as we have already more than once stated, such per-
formers as Charles Kemble, Macready, W. Farrell, Mrs.
Glover, Miss Taylor, and various others. We are happy to
have it confirmed in the course of the part week that the whole
body means to pull together, and, if they do so honestly,
fairly, and steadily, we do not doubt as to the result. Charles
Kemble and Macready, if they ever had any, have laid
aside trifling personal discordances, and will act in concert
three times a week, if not oftener. It is advertised to be
Charles Kemble's last season before he takes leave of the stage,
upon which he has now been, boy and man, 42 years, having
made his first appearance at Drury-lane in April, 1794.
No time has yet been fixed for the commencement of the
season, at Drury-lane, but the supposition is that it will open
on or about the Ist of October, with a very attractive opera
company, but weak in the department of the national drama.
Mr. Bunn returns from Paris in the middle of the week, not
having extended his journey beyond the French capital. It
seems that he has deferred his expedition into Germany, if,
indeed, he now intends to go there at all. Hence some doubt
has recently been thrown upon the statement that it is his pur-
pose to have a German company this season at Drury-lane, or,
after he comes into possession of it in March next, at the Eng-
lish Opera-house. We have seen it stated in letters from Mu-
nich that obstacles have been thrown in the way of some of the
prfncipal singers at that Court visiting London this year, but we
doubt if it be not some manoeuvre in order to raise the price of
the commodity.
lon continues so attractive at the Haymarket that, excepting
the revival of Twelfth Night, Mr. Morris does not find it ne-
cessary to resort to any other novelty.
A new comedy, by Jerrold, is talked of at Covent-Garden.
That theatre will, it is said, open with The School for Scandal
thus cast —Joseph Surface, Mr. Macready ; Charles, Mr. C.
Kemble ; Sir Peter, Mr. Farren ; Lady Teazle, Miss Fau-
cit; Mrs. Candour, Mrs. Glover. The Bristol Theatre
opens to-morrow, for a season of six weeks, under the manage-
ment of Mrs. Macready, widow of the tragedian's father. Mr.
Macarthy is engaged. On the sth of September Mr. Mac-
ready appears there as lon. Madame Vestris and Mr. C.
Mathews go to Leeds previous to the opening of the Olympic
Theatre, which takes place on the 30th of September. A
new piece is in preparation at the Adelphi, in which John
Reeve will appear. The alterations at the Olympic have been
much retarded by Mr. Beazley having delayed forwarding the
designs. They have not yet cleared away all the rubbish be-
tween the roof and the ceiling; the latter will be rebuilt on a
very novel principle.

. . .
PARIS THEATRICALS.
Tamburini and Rubini, two of the leading powers in the
only Quadruple Alliance of modern times with which all par-
ties arc satisfied, arrived in town from London some days
since. Rubini has proceeded to Italy upon private business,
but will return previous to the opening of the Italian Theatre.
Mdlle. Taglioni, we regret to perceive, has not been able to
perform during this week ; but there is no apprehension, we
understand, of any return of the effects of the accident from
which she has but lately recovered.
A company composed wholly of very young children are
about to appear at the Porte St. Martin, for a series of repre-
sentations. They have performed in some of the provinces
with very great success ; if they really possess talent their
representations must be curiously interesting.
