KING'S THEATRE.

This magnificent theatre was last night lightea up, for the
inspection of a private party, previous to its public opening,
next Saturday. The embellishments and improN;ements are
Numerous, and in the best and purest taste. Among them is
an elegant new drop scene. The panel of the boxes is also
newly painted, in a light, tasteful green, and fresh gilded besides.
A ceiling painted white with emblematical figures, and a large
chandelier in the centre give great beauty to the appearance of
the house. The stalls however have not been removed.

thing will prevent the Opposition from persisting in their
efforts to delay the measure until Ministers convince them
by the creation of new Peers, °tat the Bill is certain to
be carried in the House of Lords. Not only in the me-
tropolis, but throughout the
,country, the public are be-
rorne exceedingly impatient on the subject ;—trade and
commerce suffer severely, and if Ministers do not act
promptly and with decision, their popularity will decline.
In the present posture of affairs the reports circulated by
the Anti-Reformers, however absurd or extravagant, make
an impression even on the well-wh,hers and supporters of
Administration, and from this state of uncertainty many
evils arise,,for to this is owing the almost total suspension
of business throughout the kingdom, and the inactivity and
gloom in the money market.—Morning Advertiser.
