THE OLYMPIC THEATRE.—This house was last
night crowded in order to witness the amateur performance
in aid of the Exhibition of 1831. The first piece was Love's
Sacrifice. The playing of the amateurs was generally good,
especially Mr. Woodin's, who played Aylmer. The parts of
Margaret and Ilerminie were chaimingly played by Miss
Vining and Miss Florence Grey. These clever artistes kindly
lent their professional aid on this occasion. The afterpiece
was Chwles the Twelfth, which was very fairly played. The
part of Eudiga, by Mi,s Florence Grey, was received with the
most boisterous applause, and this lady was called before the
curtain at the end of the piece, to receive the plaudits of a
delighted audience.
THE NEPAULESE MINISTEII.—The officers of the
garrison at Woolwich have invited General Tung Bahadoor
Koonwur Ranajee and his two brothers, Colonel Juggut
Shunishere Jung Bahadoor and Colonel Dhere Shunishere
Jung Bahadoor, with the members of his suite, to a grand
ball, to be held in the spacious mess-room of the Royal Ar-
tillery Barracks, on Thursday, the 27th instant.

HER MAJESTY'S THEATRB•
There was another monster concert yesterday plor.n;
ing in her Majest) 's Theatre. It was nutter the ditrale.
of Mr. Ballo, and the whole musical strength of the
tabl:shteent wst put in requisition. It began at t'
o'clock; and at five, when we found it necessary to lea?.
two-thirds of the pregramtne had not been got throur f
To give un account of such an entertainment is of
the question; the very names of the vocal and
instru-
mentul performers would make a long catalogue
nothing of the immense variety of pieces we'.
they sang; and played. Amid a multitude of things'
good in themselves, but familiar to musical ears, th°
programme presented a few interesting novelties:
fantasia on the violin, on favourite English airs, corn'
posed and performed by Molique; a concertante for two,
pianofortes, with orchestral accompaniments, composed
by Benedict, and played by Halle and him; a new 50i°
on the violoncello on favourite Russian airs, by Piatti
and the andante of Beethoven's Kreutza Sonata, played
by Benedict and Ernst. Among the vocal pieces, one 0f
the most la2autiful eras " The Morning Song," the poetrf
by Barry Cornwall, and the music composed by lie"'
diet for 'eladsme Sontag, who sang it, for the first tiu3et
and aaA loudly eneoied. There was also Bad's new
ballad, " The Jov of Tears," which Miss Hayes 5111
last week at Godefroid's Concert, and which she repeated
with undiminished applause. The theatre was crowded.
