Tilt T frE ATM

Datt-r-LANE.—After the popular Opera or
Malvina, .a new Farce was last night produced,
under the title of (‘ Alin Brown," the plot of
which is as follows:

",Mr. John Brown is the nominee of an annuity granted. by
Mr. Project MS), a speculator in "6 "airy nothings,' and.
assigned to M rs. Foresight ( rs.H r. ow E)whonot finding pay-
ment over punctual, advertises, to ascertain if Mr. Brow n is living,
which advertisement brings up John Brown (HARLEY), a
white:mashing and 'whitewashed plaitterer, in the flattering idea
of hearing " something ,to his advantage," who is met by
Mrs. Foresight, and very graciously invited to follow her to
breakfast; but he enters by mistake the house of Old Pro-
ject( who, by the bye, is next door t- • :ghbour to Mrs. Foresight),
and is kindly recommended by hint to the overseership of his
powder-mill, but by its explosion is unexpectedly returned to
his original invitation. The true Mr. Brown (WALLACE) is
very partial to Shakapeare, and extremely averse to two Gen..
denten with fiery facet (fieri facias), and .arrieng'other engage-
ments has contracted one with Miss Fanny (Mrs. YATES), the
daughter of Old Project, a Lady of extreme susceptibility, and
with a fortune dependent upon her father's consent in writing
to her marriage, which is obtaiued by Mr. Brown, Gent., in the
disguise of one Mr. Bubble, a Projector of Joint Stock Com-
panlea."

This plot, though boasting little of novelty,
possesses a sufficient degree of bustle to afford
tolerable scope for the chaste and ever winning
drolleries of HAIMEY, who supports the scene
with great effect. ' There is however a redundancy
of puns and allusions, some of which might be
omitted with advantage to the piece. Upon the
whole, the Farce was highly successful, and as it
is amusing arid well acted, it is likely to have
11 run.
