retry rest may be advisable, perhaps, but we hope the I
public will not be deprived permanently of her scrvi- f
ces. ' When she retires who shall supply her Place—
there are many excellent actresses, many charming
singers, and many elegant dancers—some can awaken
our tenderest sympathies, some can command our
smiles, but what actress possesses all those powers
combined as Miss FooTEdoes ? We do not know one.
Her reception on Monday evening was, as on former
occasions, of the roost flattering description. The
first piece, Home, Sweet Honw, afforded her but
little opportunity for the display of her powers ; it is
a flimsy production, scarcely worthy of criticism,
having little else to recommend it but the music,
which, though pretty, is neither striking nor nove!.
It however gave Miss FOOTE occasion to wear one
of the most elegant specimens of Swiss gala cos-
tume we have ever seen, and also to sing two or
three songs with extreme sweetness. In the farce
of the LittleJoekey, Miss FOOTE was qaite at
home, and site absolutely delighted the audience.
Her elegant, figure, dressed in the jockey attire, must
have been -quire captivating to the ladies, and her
singing " The boy in yellow wins the day," was
full of that naivete which gives so great a charm to
all she does. She executed the dancing castanet
song, " Oh remember the time," with extreme
sweetness, taste, and grace, as was loudly acknow-
ledged by the universal encore which followed it.—
On Tuesday evening Miss FOOTE played Beatrice,
in Much Ado about Nothing, in the most spirited
and lady-like stile ; and by her admirable per-
formance of Priscilla Tomboy, in the farce of The
Romp, gave most agreeable proof of the range and
versatility of lier talents. the plays this evening

casion the House is expected to be a bumper. To
add to the attractions, Mrs. FOOTE, ivho has not
i played for many years, is to pet form Flora, in The
Wonder, which piece, with one act of A Roland

PIGEON SFIOOTING.
On Saturday afternoon there were no Epsom Races, no
sailing matches, nor, indeed, any thing that cnul:l yield
more attraction than is usual at this pleasurable season,
end, consequently, the fa.bionable menthers of the Rol-
l:nine Shooting C!ub, who did not eLoot at all in thp for-
mer part of last week, returned to their sport with re-
doubled ardour.

A Sweepstakes of :3001. was shot by the Hon. Colonel
Amon, Captain Ross, and Mr. Osbaldision, at twenty-five
double shots each, with five traps, at the distance of forty
wards.

The terms of this match, which it will be seen were
extremely dinicult, and called for a great display of science,
rendered the competitors anxious to have the honour of
g, anti we have no doubt but that each g,entleman
exerted himself to do his best. At the conclu,,ion of the
shooting the following was found to be the total number
of birds killed by each ventkman:—

Colonel Anson thus, rather Icontraty to expectation, won
the match, and headed the most successful of his opponents
by three. Captain R9ss, however, shot heautifully, and
made several surprising double shot% which were the only
ones killed dui log the mates. The betting on the Gold
Cop still continues in Lis favour, although Mr. °shahEs-
top, who did not shoot very well at the commencement of
the sea'on, has greatly redeemed his well-known reputation
by this snatch.

Lieut. Sisou, and the crew of the late Myrtle
packet-brig, lost on the Ragged Island, near Hali-
fax, in Aprjl last, have been brought to England in
