ST. JAIII.dS'S THEATRE.

The Domino Noir, one of the cleverest and mos,
agreeable operas in the Auber repertoire, was per-
farmed last night, cast in a similar manner to what it
was last year, the principal character being sustained
by Mdlle. Chartoe, whose singing, as the heroine,
lacked none of its ordinary attributes of grace and
fascination. To' this general award of praise little
need be added, for this charming vocalisthasfrequently
played the part of Angela in this country, not only
while under the managerial flag of Mr. Mitchell, but
during the early experiences of Mr. Delafield, at
Drury-lane. As Mdlle. Charton is just now in the
meridian of her powers, the beauty of her present
execution of the music will be easily understood, and
compliment therefore is superfluous. It is sufficient
to say that she never sang more exquisitely, played
more piquantly, or appeared more personally interest-
ing. M. Lac was substituted for M. Couderc in the
part of Horace, and exerted himself to the utmost.
The useful and intelligent M. Buguet resumed his old
role of Gil Perez, displaying therein his usual comic
richness, and obtaining an- encore in the graphic
"Nous aliens avoir, grace a Dieu," and MM. Soyer
and Chateaufort were again the representatives of
Juliano and Lord Elfort ; while Mdlle. Cotti was the
Brigitte. The opera was thus cast in a very efficient
manner, and the fluent sparkling strains of Auber
were heard under circumstances of advanOge that
could scarcely be surpassed. The choruses were
carefully executei, and the instrumentalists, under
the direction ef M. Hanssens, played the accompani-
ments with steadiness and precision. The house
was well filled. On Monday next the lessee, with
characteristic activity, produces the Caid of
Ambrose Thomas for the first time in England.
The reproduction of Auber's popular opera Le Domino
Noir attracted a crowded audience to this theatre
last evening, amongst whom we observed the Duke
of Brunswick, the Duke of Devonshire, the Turkish
Ambassador and suite;:the Baroness Brunnow and
Mdlle. Olga de Lechner, MirchoineFs of Conyngham,
Earl and Countess Granville, Countess Dowager of
Essex, Earl of Belfast, Viscount Clifden, Viscount
Cranborne, Lord Adolphus Vane, Lord Fitzroy
Somerset and Miss Somerset, Sir Ralph and Lady
Howard, the Marquis d'Azeglio, Mr. and Mrs. John
Sanford, Sir H. Campbell, Sir Henry Webb, Sir
John Lister Kaye, Madame de Lizerdi, M. and Ma-
dame de Horta, Mrs. C. Franks, &c.
