TIIE ORATonio.The' Minkel selection at
Drury Lane Theatrelast night was chiefly from
11AgnEL, itossim, Dr. CROTCH, and BISHOP.
" Ilush! ye pretty warbling choir" was beautifully
given by Miss STEPHENS. BRAIIAM'S " Sound
'an alarm" was marked by martial fervour. Miss
FOIIDE, whose "'Let the bright 'Seraphim" we
before noticed, was not. less effective on thiaoc-
casion. The Oratorio of 'Palestine, adapted to
Mr. IlEutit's beautiful Poem of that name, by
Dr. CROTCH, constituted the second arid third
parts, and afforded admirable scope for the
powers of Mrs. SALMON, Miss IVI.IREE, BitAttAst,
and the whole vocal corps. Mr. PLATT, between
the first and second parts, performed arConcerto
on the Horn with great ability,. The entertains
meat in general was warmly applauded.
THE LATE MR. KEMBLE.--It has been very
properly suggested that. .a subscription should
take place for the purpose of placing a moni-
ment to the memory of this great classical Actor
in Westminster Abbey. It is certain.that he was
the most learned and accomplished performer
since the days of GARRICK. To him the
Stage was wholly indebted for that precision and
grandeur 'of historical „costume, "to which even
grandeur 'of historical costj, "to whict even
GARRIcK did not properly attend, and which is
now the appropriate and established practice.—
The same zeal that promoted. the Farewell
Dinner to Mr. KEMULE would doubtless be
equally active. in. promoting a. due -record of
respect to his memory.
Miss KELLY.--This excellent Actress has
been very much admired in Dublin, and she has
introduced a fair pupil on the Dublin Stage hi
the part of Desdemona, Who, by all accounts,
displayed great talents, and has ably profited by
her instructions. A Morning Paper hints at " a
want of taste in theatrical matters " among our
" Irish brethren ;" but the writer does not seem
to be aware that Ireland has produced some of
our best performers, viz. Quils, BARRY, MOSSOP,
in former times, JACK JOHNSON, as he is styled,
in later. GARRICK, iII early life, was indebted
to the Irish for a reception which .manifested
their taste and judgment. The late Mr. KEMULE
also acquired so high a reputatiOn on the Irish
Stage as soon smoothed his .way to the British
Metropolis, where his fame was confirmed, and
where he maintained his ground amidst all the ea-
prices of fashion, and a ridiauloUs fascinatiiin
which maybe classed with the !yowlers of thee-
trical bigotry.
Mrs.'GLossoe (Miss FrAnoN) is engaged to
sing at Naples at a salary of 30,000 francs a
year. She made her first appearance on the 18th
ult., at the Theatre of .San. Carlo, in PAVESE'S
Opera of Arminio, and was exceedingly well re-
ceived.

Mr. YouxG made his first appearance this
season, .at the Theatre, on Satur_day evening, as
Shylock, in the Merchant of Venice.' lie per.
formed the character with his usual judgment
and discrimination, and was greatly applauded
throughout by a fashionable audience... (Edin.

PARSER, THE Mwrixtza.—Duelng the past
week, the widow of this noted character, who, at
a most portentous period, was vested by his as.'
sociates with the character of Lord High Adviiral
of England, and in whose hands the destinies of
our country were held, applied at our poor-house
for a night's lodging, and some relief. She re-
sides at Warrington, and though quite blind, had
undertaken a journey to null on a visit to her
son there. In returning thence", she had been In-
veigled by another female out of the direct road,
stripped of the little money she had to carry her
home, and was finally necessitated to the appil.

necessary assistance, the poor woman proceeded
