The SANS PAREIL THEATRE has now become
the fashionable resort of most of the Nobility in
town, -and we are happy to see the Proprietor's
liberal exertions crowned with success. The house
has been uncommonly crowded this week ; indeed,
while :such a succession of novelty is produced,
there is no doubt but it will continue. The new

Burletta of " Dove, Honour, and Obey," is one of
Miss SCOTT'S best farcical pieees, and she certainly
sustains the part of the Countess with great spirit.
The petit Ballet of " The Rival Sistets'' displays
the inimitalile (lancing of the (immix to perfec;
tion. The Burletta‘of " The Intrigue, or Miser
Duped," is ir'resistibly 'laughable and the. grand
Spectacle of " Asgard, the Dimon Hunter,"
continues, as great a.favourite as ever ; the last
scene of which is the finest of the kind w•e hdve
yet seen ; in fact, the performances arc all so
good, w;t. need nuke no further comment.

suffer by the want, of judgment, the pritvate,par-
tialities, or the caprice of Managers of the' pre-
sent Theatres, w ould have another tribunal to
pIIC al to, and the Public would thereby have an
opportunity of deciding on the validity of their
pretensions. The subject will, we understand,
soon be brought once more into Parliameutary
investigation.
