ROYAL GALLERY OE ILLUSTRATION.—Miss Annie
Sinclaire, a pupil of Mrs. 3lacfarren, made a successfu' first
appearance at this delightful place of amusement on Mon-
day last. She is young, and evidently inexperienced, but
she is ladylike, intelligent, and pleasing, and though suf-
fering from nervousness sang the music allotted to her
charmingly. The part (hiss Carbonell, in " A Dream of
Venice") is a trying one to a novice, especially in her first
scone, where she has only to speak a few empty sentences,
and look pretty, which Miss Sinclaire had no difficulty in
doing. As Venetia is the " Dream" she had a better op-
portunity, and used it so as to warrant the belief that with
a little practice she will contribute to the pleasant evenings
we are accustomed to pass at the gallery, as efficiently by
her acting as she does already by her singing.
INNS OF COURT VOLUNTEERS.—The annual in-
spection of the " Inns of Court Riflas," in Richmond-park,
