ASTLEY'S ROYAL AMPHI

THEATRE.

After the grand spectacle of The Chinese War,
which was represented last night for the 68th time,
and the attraction of which appears to increase on
each representation, Professor Hemming and his
Infant Son made their first appearance at this
theatre in the Pranks of Puck with the Elfin King.
The perfoi mances of these graceful artistes are equally
elegant and astonishing, and the Risleys must look
to their laurels since these talented artistes have taken
the field. Master Hemming is a remarkably clever
boy, and went through his performances with extra-
ordinary neatness and agility. Both father and son
were much and deservedly applauded. The Scenes
in the Circle succeeded, and Mr. Batty introduced,
for the first time to the English public, several of the
foreign artistes whom he has engaged during
his recent continental trip. Monsieur Georges,
the equestrian juggler, is a most extraordi-
nary performer. He performed some of the
most difficult feats of juggling and balancing on a
horse at full speed. One of his most extraordinary
feats was throwing two basins in the air, and catch-
ing each of them on swords held in each hand, and
balancing them there for some minutes, the horse,
with Monsieur Georges standing on his back, gallop-
ing round the ring at full speed. Mademoiselle
Helene, who also made her debitt before an English
audience last evening, is one of the most graceful and
1 fearless of female equestrians. In her scene of the
Maid of Athens, she went through all the most ele-
gant and difficult poses of an accomplished danseuse.
Lastly, we had Monsieur Louis Touirnaire, to whom
the bills do no more than justice in denominating him
the Great French Rider, in his astonishing perform-
ance as the Postboy of Marseilles, riding, conducting,
and managing nine horses at once. Not only is M.
Touirnaire a great rider—he is a great actor as well
—his pantomime was most spirited and expressive.
We hail in him the legitimate successor of Andrew
Ducrow. During the course of the evening the
beautiful and highly-trained palfrey Taglioni exhi-
bited some most astonishing feats of docility as the
Horse of Industry. This beautiful animal, in obe-
dience to the commands of its trainer, went through
all the feats of the manege, and concluded by guiding
a plough round the circle, into which two men were
harnessed. It was, in fact, a tableau vivant from the
woodcut in the old nursery rhyme-boOk, of "the
world turned upside down." During .the intervals
between the equestrian performances, the audience
were kept in a roar by the drolleries of Messrs. T.
Barry and Twist, the clowns. The Steeple• chase
concluded the evening's entertainments. The house
was crowded in every part.
