QUEEN'S THEATRE, TOTTEN-

HAM-STREET.

The Queen's Theatre, Tottenham-street, which has
been, during a short recess, entirely redecorated in the
same style in which it was fitted up some years since,
when the French company performed here, was opened
on Saturday night for a short season, by Mr. Abington,
the new lessee of the Richmond Theatre, with the newly-
engaged Richmond company. Great allowances must,
of course, be made in judging of the first performance
of a company collected from all parts of the kingdom,
and alike unused to their audience and to each other.
The play chosen for the opening was Shakspere's As
You Like It, and the following was the cast :

Duke V Mr. Barton.
Amiens Mr. H. Deval.
Jaques Mr. T. H. Lacy.
Duke Frederick . . Mr. R. Lockwood.
Orlando
Adam
Touchstone
Rosalind ...
Celia Miss Huddart.
Phoebe
Audrey Mrs. Selby.
The Rosalind of Miss Clara Seyton was a chaste, correct,
and lady-like performance. In the scenes in the forest,
she exhibited an admirably subdued spirit of fun.
The " svvashing and the martial outside" was
well put on, yet ever and anon the woman's
fears and woman's tenderness could not remain
hidden in the heart, but would, spite of every effort,
make themselves manifest. This is undoubtedly the
true idea of the part, and very tastefully was it deve-
loped by Miss Seyton. Her declamation was beautiful,
and she gave the cuckoo song with an archness and a
coquetry, that won for her an unanimous encore. She
was called for at the conclusion, and the enthusiastic
applause of a crowded house, and showers of bouquets
rewarded ". her ixertions. - She was excellently
suppgrted by Miss Huddart as Celia. This
young lady is ;a very promising actress. Mr.
T. H. Lacy entirely mistakes the part of Jaques,
and makes Min •‘ the wild Boar of Ardennes, the tierce
brigand," instead of the contemplative philosopher.
There is " stuff" about Mr. Lacy out of which to make
a good actor, but he must not only learn, but " unlearn,"
much before he can become so—more especially must he
unlearn his tendency towards what old Richard-on used
to admire as " bould speaking." Emery, as Touchstone,'
was quain% dry, and humourous ; and Mrs. Selby,.
dressed and acted Audrey admirably. The scenery was.
good, and the piece was well put on the stage. The
National Anthem was sung at the conclusion of the
play ; and the farce of Ask no Questions concluded the
evening's amusements. The house was exceedingly well
attended at the beginning of the evening, and before the
conclusion of the play it was crowded.

TERTAINMENT TO IBRAHIM PACHA.

room to the great door of the hall, and received the

Theevening, otehnat olr "Herost the

said its reception, by the company;
rising, and with the
Loan
evein proposing the first toast of
honours, would be the only instance in which he should
ask for a similar compliment to be paid to any other
toast on his list, with one exception. I now, my Lords

Victoria." •

His LORDSHIP then rose and said, that the opportu-

Ibrahim" Pacha, had contributed

occurred to him since he had the honour of presiding at
the Mansion- house of the city of London. He was con-
fident that the result of his Highness's visit to this coun-
try would be conducive not only to the commercial in-
terests of the nation over which the illustrious Prince
must one day rule, but also to the prosperity and welfare
of Great Britain. With these sentiments he bagged to
propose The health of his Highness Ibrahim Pacha."
The toast was drunk amidst loud acclamations.
IBRAHIM PecnA rose and communicated with great
earnestness for some time with his interpreter, who, in
French, addressed the Lord Mayor and company to the
following effect:—He said, that by the command of his
Excellency, he had to attempt to convey to the company
his Excellency's desire to express that, although he had
been generally received by all classes in this great coun-
try with the most marked feeling, he had not ex-
perienced reception more agreeable to him than that
