IMMenee Success of Rob Roy and Black-eyed Susan.—Novel-
ties in Preparation.
In assuming the management at Christmas last of the
wgettt, theatre in London, Professor Anderson pledged him-
self to the public to produce the most gorgeous, and, if pos-
-812,10, the best pantomime of the season. Efficiently to carry
nt that pledge he determined to spare no cost, nor fail to
trail himself of whatever talent he could discover and corn-
'mad. His arrangements were made fora period of six weeks,
o:lter which term he did not expect the pantomime to run. En-

111 ii worthy of the house at which it was presented aid the
unprecedented_ expenditure incurred in its production. Its
"Dnlarity has increased at every e'epresentation. At the pre-

walls of Covent-garden larger audiences are assembled every
r4elking than 'in any other theatre of Europe ; while the

pore causes which have already elicited success will, without

amount and its certitude. The public are respectfully ap-
r"d, that however popular any piece produced under the
prevent management may be, the number of its representations
will
be limited ; thus, for instance, Rob Roy and Black-eyed
,218au will be played on alternate nights during the present
" eek, but n 3 promise can be made of their repetition beyond
that
term, unless it be found to comport with other arrange-
21ellte now in progress. Hence it is expedient that seats
