THEATRE ROYAL, DRURY LANE
JULLIEN'S ANNUAL SERIES of CONCERTS.

The EXHIBITION QUADRILLE Signor BOPTESINI.
Signor SI VOW.
For Programme, See Bills.

In announcing the aeries 0-1 Concerts for 1851, M. Jallien begs to
assure his numerous patrons that his endeavours are still constant
to enlist in the service of these Annual Entertainments the most re-
nowned executants of Instrumental Music, and thus, while insuring
an Orchestra, the ensemble of which is totally unrivalled, he is en-
abled to present to his audiences some of the greatest Musical Cele-
brities in Europe.
M. Jullien, in carrying out these views, has entered into engage-
ments with

Signor SITORI,
Signor PIATTI, and
Signor BOTTESINI.

The success of the two fl-rst-named artistes at a former series of M.
Jullien's Concerts is too well known to need comment. Signor Bot-
esini, however, will perform at them for the first time, the nature
of the engagement of the great Contrabassiste securing his exclusive
services. The appearance of Signor Bottesini at the various con-
certs of the past extraordinary season created a sensation in the
musical circles of the metropolis, as well as among the numerous
continental musicians then assembled in London, but very rarely
excited by an instrumental performer ; In fact, musicians and ama-
teurs, as well as the public press, universally regarded the success
of this young artiste as alone equalled by that of the great Paganini.
THE ORCHESTRA

will be complete in every respect, and include the following cele-
brated solo performers:—
Band Harper, T. Mori
Bizeth Harper, C. Payne
Collinet Holt Phillips
Cooper Howell Plattt
Crozier Janza Pilet
Defolly Jarrett Pratten
Dcloffre Koenig Sonnenberg
Doyle Kreutzer 1 hirlwell
Frelon Lavigne Vogel
Godfrey Lazarus WinterbottoM
Handley Lutgen
Conductor—M. JULLIEN.
Principal Cornet-a-Pistons—Herr KtENIG,
who, being exclusively engaged by M. Jullien during the whole year,
can only be heard in his Co wefts.
_ _

Several of the instruments to which were awarded the Council
Medals at the Great Exh oltion having been purchased by M. Jul-
lien, they will be introduced during the Concerts.
Notwithstanding that Instrumental Music has always been the
special characteristic of M. Jullien's Concerts, he has, as during for-
m-r seasons, secured the services of an eminent Vocalist ; and this
year he has made an engagement with
3liss DOLBY,
who will appear on the opening night.

The repeAoire of M. Jullien, already one of vast extent, win this
season be increased by the addition of several most important work.;
of the great was' ers. M. Jullien has also arranged a grand selection
from Mozart's celebrated opera, " II Flanto Magico," and another
from Beethoven's grand work, " Fidelio."
Among the lighter portions of the music, will be presented the new
Waltzes, Polkas, and Quadrilles, which M. Jullien last year had the
distinguished honour of composing for her Majesty's State Balls, and
also several entirely new pieces, composed expressly for the present
series of Concerts, among which will be found
THE INDIAN QUADRILLE,
_ _

composed on East Indian melodies, and exhibiting the peculiar cha-
racteristics of the instruments of the native Indians, used in their
dances, festivals, sports, wars, religious ceremonies, &c.
The decoration of the promenade will be entirely new, and the
whole theatre well warmed and ventilated. The Grand Crystal
Curtain will also be exhibited.

The Reading Room will contain six well-lighted reading tables,
on which will be found siz London morning papers, three evening
papers, twenty-three weekly papers, and twenty provincial papers ;
besides the Irish, Scotch, German, American, Italian, Swiss, Dutch,
Indian, Chinese, Australian, New Zealand, Malta, Portuguese,
lonian, Canadian, Belgian, and Spanish newspapers, magazines, and
other periodicals.

The refreshments will be provided by Mr. G. Payne, and be of the
best quality and at the most moderate prices.
The Concerts will on each evening commence at Eight, and termi-
nate at Eleven o'clock.

THE WEST INDIA STEAM LINERS.--The plan
matured by the Royal West India Mail Company for the
conveyance of mails, &c., betwcan Southampton and Grey-
t'wn, in Central America, by way of St. Thomas, Santa
Martha, Carthagena, and Chagres, has been temporarily
frustrated by the wreck of the Demerara a few days since, in
the river Avon, at Bristol. It was intended that five steamers,
worth more than half a million of money, should be placed
on the route, to start on five consecutive packet days, and
afterwards run permanently. This scheme cannot of course
be carried out in its integrity until the Demerara is repaired,
or a vessel is built to supply her place. A steamer in the
room of the Demerara will probably be completed in about
nine months from this time. The Amazon will be the first
of the five steamers which will be got ready, and she will
make a trial, it is expected, in a week or ten days. The
Orinoco, Parana, and Magdalena, are in a state of great
forwardness.

RAILWAYS IN BRAZIL.—The intelligence by the
Severn informs us that a line of railway is immediately to
be constructed between the mouth of the river Mova and
the foot of the Serra, a distance of about fourteen miles. The
formation of this line will diminish the distance between
Petropolis and Rio, and will form the first link in the chain
of railway communication which Brazil will before long pos-
sess. The concession for this line is in the hands of an
eminent Brazilian, largely connected with England. The
survey has been made by an English engineer.
KINGSTON CATTLE FAIR.. SECOND DAY.—This
fair commenced and terminated yesterday, with the same
activity as the first day, without any fluctuation either in
prices or demand, all the beasts of good quality being dis-
posed of by mid-day ; and long before the close of the day,
the field for black cattle was cleared out at more satisfactory
prices than has occurred for several years. There were but
hw good cart horses and colts that remained unsold the first
day; these were brought in and found a ready sale at but
I little abatement from the first day's prices. The Welchmen
had a brisk sale for their small unbroken ponies at from 31.
may be regarded as the best, both as regards prices
_
to 5/. each. Upon the whol-, this fair, upon the recent oc-
icalTmand, that has occurred at the autumn fair of Kings-
ton for msny years. The sheep and lambs, numbering
nearly 12,000, were
all old the first day.
