fl/VG'S TII.EITEL

Thursday evening the cause of Cirarity was most
ably and successfully supported at this splendid Thea-
tre. Mr. TayLon having generously granted the
use of the House for the benefit of that praiseworthy
Institution the Scottish Hospital, the whole of the
perforil'ers at the Opera House came forward with
the offer of their gratuitous services with that alacrity
and zeal which ever distinguishes genuine talent when
an appeal is made in behalf of suffering humanity. The
attractions were such therefore as to draw topther
one of the most crowded and fashionable audiences
which was ever witnessed at any place of public
amusement, and the result to the fonds of the Charity
was beneficial in the extreme. MOZART'S celebrated
master-piece of ig Figaro" was the Opera selected on
the occasion, and never did CATALAN! play the fasci-
nating syren with a more brilliant and striking eifect.
Mrs. DtexoNs, who handsomely took that opportu-
nity of commencing her engagement for the season in
i, the Italian Opera, seemed throughout the evening,
to be animated with a noble and generous spirit of
emulation, and every cadence which issued from her
lips was hailed with surprize and delight. Her
warmest admirers never thought her capable of such
extended exertions. At the end of the Opera Tao-
MEZZ ANI came forward and sung " GOD save the
King," when the whole audience rose and joined the
chorus with enthusiasm. This sudden and unexpect-
ed testimony of loyalty and affection for a beloved
Sovereign who still lives in the hearts of his subjects,
was such as to draw the tear of sensibility from every
eye, and his Royal Highness the Duke of CAMBRIDGE
was so overwhelmed with this additional proof of at-'
tachment to his venerable and virtuous Sire, that
Iv. retired from the front of the box to give vent
to the excess of his feeling* The splendid Chef-
d'ceuvre of La Reine de Golconde in which M. MDR-
LOT has most happily concentered the various talents
of his excellent corps de ballet, followed the Opera.
D toELor hi mself,as Harran, flew across the stage" Like
a meteor on the whirlwind borne" and gave life and ani-
mation to the movements of the whole. Madame DI DE-
LOT, although only a secondary part is allotted tn her
in the present ballet, from motives which do her the
highest honour, was not deficient in evincing her
anxiety to merit the patronage of an enlightened pub-
lic. All her movements are distinguished by that
graceful ease and elegance which marks the legiti-
mate pupil of the school of DinELor. With her imi-
tations of the fine forms which have been borrowed
by ancient and modern artists from the Pagan mytho-
logy, and which seem to have been her peculiar
study, every classical scholar must be delighted.
Tanti coituml, e naziora, e riti,
Che quasi par, canto ai le muse =tithe
Che non ru lei, ma to natura 'mitt
Primo pittor delle memur:e antiche !
One of the most striking novelties in this superb
composition is the introduction of the beautiful and
accomplished Mile. CHERI- as a performer on the
Harp, with the dulcet muds of which the accom-
panies Miss Twits:LEY in a tar sad. The chords
of the instrument wzre struck with exquisite delicacy
and precision; and the fine and graceful form which
Nature has bestowed on the fair Performer, appeared
to double advantage in her new character. VESTRI',
whcse character as a. grave Ambassador does not
admit of the display of that bounding agility for
which he is so eminent, seemed to have reserved all
his fire for the concluding tow with ANGIOLINI, after
she unveils herself and reminds him of his early love.
It was then that " Greek met Greek," and the
Dieu et Deiese de la diznse were seen contending in
generous emulation for the palm of victory, while
the delighted audience testified their approbation by
I repeated acclamations.

mESSKS. CURRIE and Co. Surgeons, late in his
Majesty's Service, challenge the whole world to prove a
single instance where their Medicine and method of cure ever
failed of the desired effect. The practice of many years in the
particulat branch of their profession has not given rise 'to one
unsuccessful case.
Several Noblemen and Gentlemen, of the first respectability,
have been under the care of M . Currie and Co. for these-
moval of complaints of the Urethra, Strictures, &c. and, having
received a radical and permanent cure, request that reference,
may be made to them as satisfactory evidences of the decided su-
periority of Messrs. Currie and • Co.'s plan of treatment. Many
of these Gentlemen have had Strictures from ten to twenty years
and had been under the care of Messrs. Home and Heavisides
and other surgtons of equal eminence, who attempted-the cure
by the application of the lunar caustic, without success.
MARRIED WOMEN, who nave long been disappointed in
their espectatione of a family, may be assured that in most in
stances such defects are curable by medical skill; and althowg•
the removal of such impediments Be an object of doubt and uncet
tasty with others, yet the cure of much defects, by the gradua ,
progress of rehueatiott' is the acquirement of their experience
