ADELPM THEATRE.—Notwithstanding the great
success that has attended the representation of the now
drama "Magloire," in which Mr. Webster nightly creates
the deepest impressions on the audience, it is to be with-
drawn, for a time at least, at the end of the present week,
in order to make way for the celebrated drama " The Col-
leen Bawn," with Mr. and Mrs. Dion Boucicault. Fortune
seems fixedly to smile upon the Adelphi Theatre; for the
last eight or nine months money has nightly been refused
at the doors. Mr. Webster, we imagine, must by this time
know what it is to sleep upon a bed of roses.
