HAYMARKET THEATRE.

A petite musical drama, entitled Der Nacht Teufel, was
produced at this theatre on Thursday with complete success.
The principal characters were supported by Miss P. Horton,
Miss Julia Bennett, and Mrs. Glover. The two former ladies
contributed greatly to the success of the piece, by their
charming manner of executing some very delightful music;
and Mrs. Glover seconded it, by her admirable acting as
lady-superior over certain maids of honour. The character
was exactly suited to her, and she did it full justice. This
drama is altogether a very pleasant affair, and will no doubt
have a run. The house was very well attended.
