list appears, for example, the great name of CHARLES
DICKENS—type of a noble genius, and a yet
nobler heart, always ready to sympathise with any
brother of the pen sorely in need of sympathy, or
to co-operate (as in the present instance) in aiding
materially those whom any departed labourer at
the desk may have left behind him in the wide,
wide world without adequate provision. Asso-
ciated with Mr. DICKENS in this enterprise of
generous and practical sympathy, are seventy-three
other committee-men, among whose names it would
be invidious to make any further selection. Per-
sonal friends they are for the most part, we be-
lieve, of the young humorist and dramatist,
whose brilliant talents and amiable disposition
they have thus united to commemorate. In aid of
the committee no less than six of our metropolitan
managers have readily come forward with the con-
cession of the services of some of the most eminent
members of their respective establishments. The
Companies of the Haymarket, the Adelphi, the
Olympic, the Princess's, and the little Strand Theatre
thus contribute effectively towards the diversity
and general excellence of the proposed entertain-
men. The Theatre-Royal Drury-Lane, is the
spacious house wisely chosen for the scene
of these performances. The actors and actresses
who have volunteered their services for the
night include amongst them some of the chief of
our London favourites. It is announced already as
certain, that the entertainments on Wednesday will
conclude with one of the most humorous and bril-
liantly successful of the burlesques of the Brothers
BROUGH, namely, The Enchanted Island. The
more miscellaneous part of the performance, com-
prising an Original Prologue to be spoken by Mrs.
STIRLING—at dan Occasional Address delivered and
written by Mr. G. A. SALA—together with ROBERT
BROUGH'S poem of " Godiva," to be recited by Mr.
LEICESTER BUCKINGHAM. We cannot entertain
the smallest doubt but that the generous efforts
thus made by so many gifted collaborateltrs will
ensure, on Wednesday evening, a triumphant suc-
cess within the walls of Drury Lane Theatre to the
" ROBERT BROUGII Testimonial."
