Saturday t
Theatre, hi the Llayinarket, opened for ,the star
son with a lie.w nosiepl
.liramit, in two nets, ea-
titled Grisetrict;ur La Yertu in CinleraO. The story
of the Petienceof °did .;1e now assumed almost
every shape, historical, biographical, romantical,
dramatical, and tunsicel;liad iri elinost every shove
it has been, In spite of the barbarity of its basis,
highly popular. The production o'f, Saturday,with
the sweet music of Poet% is not likely to (oral an
exception to the forttniate fate of all the Cirixels.
The Opera was received with great applause, and
deserved it, for the whole composition is uncom-
monly chaste and fine and thutogh possessed of
no great variety, it is not so lung as to satiate
with an uniformity of sweetness.
With the exception! of the excellent NALcii,
whom we rejoice to see restored to this Theatre,

which is most pleasino to our national taste. Her
voice is inelthlions, her style neutral, her execu-

Order, and gives us a mingled mass of splendid
• ruins instead of the fair edifice, with base, shaft,
capital, and plinth, in just relation and harmo-
nious union. Madame FODOR displays taste ai
well as science, and possesses in perfection one
of the rarest qualities of the Seaciol to which she
beloegi, that of singing every note in tune. She
met throughout a very flattering reception, and ,
was encored in a spirited Daetto, in the second
act. .As un Actress she takes nearly the saute rank
as-she does RS aSinger. Wituout boaiting the most
powerful and brilliant talents, she performs with
grace 'end judgmeut. Her face and figure are
pleasing rather than striking : into the' former

artillery of a pair of pretty eyes to good effect,
