DRURY-LANE THEATRE.—Mr. Bunn seems de-
termined to surpass all his former efforts—for on Thursday
next, after the performance of The Bohemian Girl„ Albert a
splendid ballet of La Jolie Fille de Ganef, will be brought for-
ward, and will introduce us to one of the greatest beauties,
and best dancers, the Parisian stage has ever produced,
Mademoiselle Fleury, who sustains the character of Beatrice.
the heroine of the piece. We are, moreover, to have Mon-
sieur Albert himself, and his pupil, Monsieur Haguet Vestris,
who lately made so successful a debut at the Academie—and
of the mist cn scene report speaks in the highest terms.
CAPTAIN TUCKETT'S BENEFIT.—This gentleman, as
will be seen from the theatrical adVertisement, takes his be-
nefit this evening in the character of Falstaff, in the play of
Henry IF. He will be v ell supported by Mr. Keeley and
Miss t fordaunt, and every exertion will be made to render
the performance effective. Two amusing pieces follow, the
Miser's Well, and the Thumping Legacy.
PRINCESS'S THEATRE.—On Saturday evening a
new farce was produced here with success, entitled Bounce,
or the Ojibbeway Indians. The plot is one of those wild ex-
travagant compounds which sometimes make a man laugh
against his will, and which do not bear an elaborate
detail upon paper. The lover of a certain young lady ob-
tains admittance to the father's house, accompanied by a
confederate, in the• disguise of Ojibbeway Indians. A
war-dance, accompanied by strange yells, is then performed,
which, by means of a little cajolery, is made the means of
inclining the heart of the old gentleman towards his future
son-in-law, to whom his consent is given with evident feel-
ings of pride and satisfaction. The droll acting of Messrs.
Oxberrv, Walter Lacy, and Fitzjames carried this light little.
affair merrily through; and it was announced for repetition
amid general applause.
Among those who deserve to be honourably re•
corded for the persevering recklessness of their good-nature,
the London tradesmen hold a prominent position. Their oc-
cupations render them peculiarly obnoxious to the supplica-
tions of the needy, the promises of the expectant, and the
tricks of the fraudulent. And none of these various classes
go away ungratified, even though not satisfied. Their
ears are open alike to the needy, the sanguine, and the artful.
Not a day passes but some new event is disclosed which
proves the London tradesman to possess the most compre-
hensive benevolence—in the way of his business. He fur-
nishes houses for ideal tenants; he supplies jewels to visionary
ladies of title; he makes up trousseaux for unbe-
trothed brides; furnishes card-tables to folks who don't
know 100 from cribbage; accepts the bills of major-
generals unknown to the Army List ; and gives four months'
credit for a grand piano to ladies who have learned only
the music of the million. The undiscriminating charity
which he thus systematically exhibits in the way of business,
would, if administered in its own name, and for its own ob-
jects, dry up the tears of every widow and orphan through-
out the metropolis.— Times.
THE LATE MARQUIS OF HASTINGS HUNTING STUD.
—ln accordance with the wish of the deceased nobleman,
the following draft of his Lordship's valuable hunting stud
—namely, Pet, alias Bodkin, Darling, and Polly, have be-
come the property of J. Balguy, J. B. Story, and G. V.
Vandeleur, Esqrs.
THE PnErAHATloNs.—Orders have been issued
from the office of the Commander of the Forces in Ireland, for
the establishment of a military station at Tyrrell's-pass—the
force to consist of 40 men. This is the first time since the
rebellion of '9B that a soldier has been quartered in this re-
tired and peaceful village.
We stop the press to announce that Captain Grover
has just received intelligence from Dr. Wolff, at Erzeroum,
corroborated by six individuals, that Colonel Stoddart
,and
Captain Conolly live ; and therefore greater hope than here-
tofore may be entertained that our countrymen, towards
whom so much interest has been felt, will be restored to their
friends.—Literary Gazette.
