COPEAT GARLIBN THEATRL

Mr. Knaves exertions, which have so long stint.
nett and ennobled the British stage. approach their -
lermittation. The present is announced to be the
last season in which he will act. He intends to go
through the whole range of his duration once more.
and he will then make his final bow. Every thing
that concerns hint has long bairn interesting .te the
losers of the drama ; and the last display of those
talents, which base during so muly years at once
gratified and improved the public taste, cannot but
Pier one of the -strongestattractions that ever any
Intim could boast. The very unfavourable state
oiithe weather yesterday prevented the House from
being •so toil Ott the commencement of the Play as
might have been espected, but after the Third Act
veciiscies were well filkdsup. On his entrance,'
Mr. KIDIALS was Arceted with the warmest trans.
ports that enthusiastic admirationcould inspire. The
whole Pit rose to ?active him ; the shouts from all
parts rtf the House did not subside for many eninutes,
.011 were at last terminated by the hisses of those
whose impatience for the commencement nt the anti.
cjpated treat could no longer be repressed. the
opening scene presented many beauties, which we de.,
spur of seeing equalled, and which cannot be suf.'
passed. Tile cares and the sorrows which oppressed
die Patriot were finely indicated by his countenance
and deportment, as was the fortitude which enabled
Sato to sustain tuent with constancy, and- the most
vivid imagivation could not paint a more affecting
picture of kntylniuded Virtue struggling with' nn.
rstetited adeersity. The *moil energy with which
be eselaientd—

'Twill never be too tato
TO sue for chains mid own a conqueror,"
spoke to every heart, and called forth the response
which might be expected' from an audience of free-
men. HIS ICCeptiOß Of Bezisa was noble and affect-
ing ; and the high-minded r!rsentittent with which he
spurned the "generous cares" of Carar well bespoke
the exaled soul ,If Cato. The rebuke which the dis-
closure of Jabo's love calls forth was awfully digni-
fied ; though the air with which he regarded the
youth before hr uttered it was so expressive, that till
we heard them recited, we could hardly think the
words at all necessary. The worst lifts in the Play,
b silly
lute ow to rive applause whirrs 'di deserved,*
was taken up by the audience and applied to the
actor with acclamations.
The fine soliloquy in the Fifth Act called forth
universal applause. 'Me following lines,
" The Stars shall fade away, the Sun blmself
Grow Sim with age, and Nature sink in years; •
But thou slialt Sourish in immortal ',oak,
Utahart amidst the war of e'emeata,
Why *tech ut matter and the crush of worlds,"
were nevermore admirably delivered. In the dying;
scene, Mr. KesisLes yerricamance was equal to What
it was in the other pins of the Play, which we have
hastily noticed. It was every thing that could be
'wished, and well deserved those thunders of appro-
baiion with which 'l't was rewarded.

PARISIAN FASHIONS.—Some bats are latterly made
of black velvet, which are fronted with TOP! or lento',
edam; and bordered with whitkplaited tulle or black
blond lace, but these are yet not very nniawrons.
There are several of lemon colour without any de-
coration eseept a light blond round the borders; but
some few are ornamented with large blue bells' on
garden daisies. When the black valet hats are
decorated with flowers, they are generally of the ruse;
kind, but without leaves, in chains round the lower,
part of the crown. Some hats of white silk, cl.equereck
with green, have bands of green cut velvet crossing
the crown or top, or tormet. in. Lugs loops at the
lower part thereof. Last year some spencers wow
made with fiat backs, and the best cutters aver that
'these wilt soon be in general vogue. Since the
weather has become cool, numerous giless of Merino,
with printed colour borders, are wore. The colours.
'most in use tor the knit or wove gilets are blue, black,.
and grey. •
