ExGrAsll OPERA HousE.—lt is much to be re-
gretted that theatrical Performers of established
merit should be obliged to resort to novel expe-
dients, in order to attract that public attention
which ought to be the just tribute to their in-
trinsic powers, and a due reward for the gratifi-
cation which those powers have afforded. Such
was the case last night at this Theatre. Mrs.
GLOVER, who may fairly be considered as one of
the best Actresses on the London Stage, who
would have been entitled to an eminent station
on that Stage in the best periods of our theatrical
history, and who is still in the prime of life, and
in the full possession of her talents, found it ne-
cessary to court public notice in the character of
Hamlet. As far as it was possible to subdue the
consciousness that the part was performed by a
female, Mrs. GLovEn certainly triumphed over
that difficulty. Her performance was charac-
terized by that good sense which has always
marked her acting. Iler deportment was easy
and graceful. She displayed a full knowledge
of the character in the detail, and in the general
expiessfon. The soliloquies were delivered with
impressive energy, and an air of philosophic re-
flection, which would have done honour to any
male representative of this arduous character.—
Indeed, if she had been of the other sex, her
Hamlet would have been justly estimated among
the mast popular of theatrical assumptions. The
skill which she displayed in the fencing scene
was the more extraordinary, as she has never been
seen in any of those ballets &action in which
other females have signalized their talents.—
It cars hardly be necessary to state that a per-
formance of such high merit was received with
great applause, and it is only justice to add, that
the applause was not the mere result of friendly
zeal, but' the fair homage of judicious criticism.—
NITe have thought it proper to dwell in some de-
gree upon this subject, because Mrs. GLOVER is
an actress of great merit, because she has a family
to support, because she has been a persecuted
woman, because a considerable part of the hard
and uncertain profits. of her professional labours
are taken from her, and finally because we hope
that our sincere tribute to her merit may operate in
some degree in favour of her efforts, wherever she
may bend her course, since she 14 Hot able to
procure due protection in the Metropolis.—The
character of Ophelia was well performed by Miss
BLAyenARD. We were glad to see the House
so well attended ; but it is.very probable that
Mrs. G.'s profits would have been much greater if
she had not been prevented from having her benefit
at Drury-Lane Theatre, on account of the Grand
Festival in honour of the Anniversary of that
glorious Victory of Waterloo• for which the
world is chiefly indebted to the firmness, perse-
verance, and heroic example of Great Britain.

CONSTITUTIONAL ASSOCIATION.— Yesterday,
Mr. PArtruNs, in company with Mr. TRACK RAY,
and Mr. lIARMER, waited upon the Loan MA yo
at the Justice Roorn, for the`purpose of filing in-
formations against certain Members of a Society,
called the Constitutional Association.—Mr. Par-
kins presented to the Lord Mayor an information
laid by John Tyler, of the parish of St. Clement
the Dane, against Joseph- Bulwarth Sharp.—
There was a similar information presented against
Mr. Charles Murray.—Mr. Parkins said, that he
should only ask of his Lordship for summonses
to in issued upon the informations, calling upon
the individuals to answer the charges preferred
against them. The Lord Mayor naturally hesi-
tating on such an occasion, agreed that the par-
ties should come up again on Wednesday after-
noon.

On Tuesday afternoon, Mr. K ENT:exhibited his.
apparatus for walking on the water, at Newiis,ven ; and after
going about the piers for some time, walked out to the Roads,
and round, the guard ship,, returning to the pier in a boat. Last
week he walked. across, the Frith-from Newhaven to Burntisland,
and on Thur ,day he tressed the Queensferry, in presence of the
Duke of ALI-Al-and several other Noblemen and Gentlemen.-
Yeeterday' afternoon he exhibited in the sea, •at Porto-
befbre a great concourse of spectators. Ile went out
abouta mile from the shore, and walked backwards and forwards
for-some' time. Men were stationed at. different . places with
bones to collect money from the people assembled; and we un-
derstand a handsome sum was obtained, which will enable the
ingenious ,contrivet to proceed to London, where.he proposes to.
exhibit his apparatus.—(Edinburgh Courant, June 16.)'
