THE THEATRE.

LYccum..,--The new musical afterpiete, enti-
tled, Ti... Maid and the Magpie, or, Ortilekis the
Thief, .brought forward on FAWCETT'S benefit on
Monday at this Theatre, was repeated iast night
with great success. It is Jimmied on a piece that
is vefy attractive on the French Stage,, anti is not
likely to he less so in this country. The story is
simple and very interesting. Annette (M.lst KELLY)
is the servant of a farmer in the neighboufhopd of
Paris. Shy' hai the charge of the plate, and- a
silver fork and spoon having been inissee, she is
suspectol of t',e theft, brought to trial, fad con-
demned to death. It appears, however, as she is
led to, execution, that a magpie in the farmer's
house Wad piked up these articles, art:; deposited
them on the top of the where they are
found:at this critical moment Lilazo
Anisette's Lover. The girl's character is thus for-
ttinAttly cleared, and the tinily are raised from.
misery to hafyiness. There are a number of
cident;al circumstances which we have not room
to det4H, hut all eminently contributing to
heighten the interest of the piece, w!,ich, indeed,
Okes as strong pf,o4:-!ssion of the teelings as any
that we ever attended of a similar description.—
It is particularly indebted to Miss KELLY, who
plays with adMirable truth and pathos, as well as
to FAWCPTT, KNIGHT,' GAT TIE, and Mrs. HMI-
LOWE.---M r. ARNOLD is understood to be the
author.

authority these things are done, and why M.
