DRURT.LANE —The Opera of Guy Manus:illy was
repeated 14st night, and the house was 611 ed to
excess. Miss STEPHICNS made her second appearance
this season and was more in po ion of her powers
than on her first. She sane with more judgment, and
consequently with more effect. Several of the songs
were encored and applauded to enthusiasm. BRAHAII
supports her with his very finest powers; we never
heard him display more of his own peculiar excellence
than last night. The richness of Isis tones was only
to be equalled by the rare purity of his style in
Death of Abercromby," and in "Love's Young Ave:3n."
The new Dandle /inmost confirmed the favourable

impression which his first appearance created. He has
the true Yorkshire dialect in all its native breadth ; and
in addition to a good face, be appears to po consi-
derable natural humour. He was much applinded.l—
was as amusing as ever.
COVENT GARDEN.—Tue School for Scandal attracti.d.
an excellent audience to this Theatre. The tine acting
Of FARMER, INACROADT, and Kg 31314, together with
that of Miff CHESTER as Lady Teazle, afforded one of
the highest combinations of dramatic talent Which this
or perhaps any other period of dramatic history San
produce.
