AGRIND BAZAAR will be held on TUES-
DAY, the ad of June, and Two following days, by the
hind permission of her Majesty's Commissioners of Woods and
Forests, in the beautiful grounds of the TOXOPHOLITE
SOCIETY, in the REGENT'S PARK, on behalf of the
HOSPITAL FOR CONSUUPTION AND tIISEASES
OF THE CHEST, BROMPTON,
for the specialwrpose of promoting the Fund to carry on this
National and now extensive Charity, which is entirely sus-
s.. `taitted by voluntary contributioos.
In announcing another Bazaa. the Committee beg leave to
express their deep feeling of gratitude to the public for the
genbrons patronage extended to the Bazaars held in former
years. The profits realised by them augmented so considera-
bly the fund by which the Hospital was built that but for
these efforts the New Wing, which is now fully occupied,
could have scarcely been commenced.
The pressure of the times, however, with the heavy in-
crease of responsibility occasioned by the accommodation
given to 130 additional patients, and the opening of the
Sanatorium at Bournemouth, arc considerations so important
that the Committee appeal to the friends and patrons of this
valuable Institution with unusual earnestness to support
them by their presence at the Bazaar, and to prepare for the
effort such articles of work as they may consider suitable,
including paintings, drawings, &c. Donations also of music,
minerals, botanical specimens, manufactured goods, models
of mechanism, architectural and fancy designs, specimens of
coins, birds, Insects, bpoks and other publications, atyliors'
autographs, autograph letters from celebrated men and 1, o -
men, original poetry, tales, flowers, circ., or pecuniary aid,
forwarded to the Hospital, will be gratefully received and
acknowledged.

ER MAJESTY'S THEATRE.
SEASON 1856.

It is respectfully announced that the OPERA SEASON
will COMMENCE on SATURDAY, the 10th of May.
On resuming the perfo mances which have been suspended
during the last three years, the Director of her Majesty's
Theatre is anxious to assure the patrons of the Opera and
the public, that no exertion shall be wanting to secure for
this establishment that high position it so long maintained ;
and ho trusts that the renewal of the enterprise under more
prosperous auspices will be accompanied with that favour
and support which no frequenter of the Opera needs to be
reminded were for so many years accorded to a brilliant and
successful management.
The secession, in 1847, of many of those performers whp
had long been attar ned to the Opera-House was the com-
mencement of a long and arduous struggle to maintalikthe,
fortunes of the old house ; and le was not till the Wealth of
four successive competitors had been fruitlessly lavished upon
the rival theatre, that Mr. Lumley was reluctantly compelled
to retire from the contest.
From that time to the present Mr. Lunacy's ends have
been unremitting to re-open her Majesty's Theatre upon a
permanent basis, and to restore the Opera to its ancient
home. He has received liberal encouragement from every
Bide, and, effectually aided by noble and generous support
from a quarter where the refinements of art and taste never
fail to find a patron, he is now enabled gratefully to announce
the immediate resumption of performances.
At the present moment there arc vocalists, of an excellence
seldom surpassed, who have never been heard by an English
public. Of these the elite have been secured for the present
season.

Her Majesty's Theatre is marked out by its size, its bitua-
tion, and its convenience of access, no less than by old and
Interesting associations, as the appropriate seat of the Opera.
In the acoustic properties, so essential to the effective pro-
duction of the lyrical drama, it is acknowledged to surpass
every other stage in Europe. In consequence of some happy
accident of cou,truction a result has been attained that science
has failed to explain, and that, no architect could engage to
reproduce, by which the faintest tones and the most delicate
vocalisation penetrate with unimpaired clearness to the re-
motest recesses of the vast edifice.

The arrangements completed and in progress, both in Opera
and Ballet, will, it is confidently hoped, be thought worthy
of the former reputution of the Theatre, and of the just ex-
pectations of its distinguished supporters.

- In consequence of the late periO.l at which it was resolved
to open the Theatre, tha arrangements, satisfactory as it is
Loped they will even now bas found, are not yet fully coin.
