THE THEATREi.

ROTA L COBURG TII LATH E.---For these three
weeks past, great exertions have been made for
the re-opening of this Theatre for the Easter
Entertainments. Artists of the first science have
been employed on the decorations and in im-
provements ; and we may venture to assert, that

the House consist of,---TittsT CIRCLE of the

The Laughing Gas Worded much amusement,
and a very good Phantasmagoria concluded the
entertainment much to the satifaction of a nu-

INDIAN TQir.--Anlgng the settlers of Bruns-
wick was DANIEr MALcot,m, a man of undaunted
courage, and an inveterate enemy of the Indians,
who gave him the name of Sungurnumby, i. c. a
very strong man. He went one day into the
forest for the purpose of splitting rails from the
spruce, not apprehensive of the Indians so early
in the season. While engaged in his work, and
having opened a log with small wedges about

his side. " Sungernumby," said the Chief, " now
me got you ; long me want you ; you long speak
