THEATRES.

COMIT-GAIRDEN TlMATim—The Tragedy of The
Grecian Daughter was acted last night. Miss O'Nasta.,
as Beithearie, exerted her powers with the happiest
effect. Yount, as Blunder, skilfully marked the
weakness•of age. CONWAY acted the Tyrant with great'
ability, and looked remarkably well. Tatum and
Anaorr, as Pleilotas and Phocyon, acquitted themselves
to the enure satisfaction of the audience.
DRURY•LANIL—Mr. KEAN performed in Richard
fie Second, and gave great effect to all the principal
scenes. His parting with his Queen was to the last
degree affecting. Mrs. BARTLEY acted in her best,
style, and her performance called forth the most une-
quivocal marks of boundless approbation from the
audience. The other characters were well filled.
THE ENGLISH OPERA.—The powerful applications
against a renewal of the Licence for the performance
of English Operas at the Lyceum have completely
failed, and Mr. ARNOLD is now in possession of the
requibite authority for opening his new Theatre.
