/ HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE.—The opera of
i`t, uritasti was reputed last nig
ht at her Majesty's Theatre
" as much success as attended it on Saturday, three or four
ieeaux being most vehemently encored, and the execution
iiearing throughout to give general satisfaction. No demon-
rations in favour of Tamburini took place at the entree of
‘'elletti, who was much applauded in the first piece that he
tiaill3g, and encored with Lablache in " Sunni la Tromba." On
(1,.e fall of the curtain however, when he came forward with
eiTsl Rubini, and Lablache,' a few cries of " Laporte " were
--.4ei from some parts of the house, the loudest and most per-
4,eting proceeding from a box on the upper tier. They
taw:e; +however met with little support and encouragement, the
d '°ritY of the audience appearing to take no part in these
...ftnonstrations, which subsided long before the curtain rose
rill for the ballet. The opera was very fully attended, and
14,63:4Pany included a large proportion of fashion. Her
Sai:k accompanied by Prince Albert and Prince Ernest of
IV, ns-üburg-Gotha, graced the theatre with her presence.
brid"ticed likewise their Royal Highnesses the Duke of Cam-
Re and Princess Augusta of Cambridge.

be,aetta an& Lucinda were undertaken by Miss Rainforth and
Zlis Wilkinson, and Hawthorn and Young Meadows by Mr.

,..Tving. was particularly so in a new reading of the letter
i'Ll'ich he receives from Sir William Meadows, which convulsed
'" /louse with laughter; and the way in which Keeley, when
rrftised a wedding dinner for taking Madge, extemporised a
L'PIY that-hehad `' no appetite," provoked a grin from the per..
i;orreers themselves on the stage, as well as the audience. The
s tt'e was fell from the commencement, a proof that there is

it islerying evil(as was the cas.e to a certain ex-
