THEArRIcALs IN THIS CIrY.-The greater part Of
last season, owing to the Encouragement Of Mr..
Price, the failure Of Madame Vestriss engagements,
and the great attraction Of Miss Shirrs and Wilson,
at the National, the latter theatre repeatedly
crowded TO suffocation, whilst the company at the
Park played to almost empty benches. For some
time past, this season, the Bowery and Nib)es have
been crowded. whilst the National has been closed,
and the Park apparently dragging out lingering
existence, until it also closed for dozen nights.
Both the National and Park have now been open
some twenty nights, and still Burton, and his two
wives, at Nibos, Forrest at the National, supportea
BY set of miserable sticks; and novelty, spectacle,
the rival queens, Mrs. Shaw and Miss verify
Hamblins peculiar reputation, and little OCCASION
al spice, IN the shape OF row, have drawn crowds
to each OF these places; whilst the Park has been
going on in quiet manner, with little TO In
terrupt its dull routine, to draw crowded hoase,
except the visit of Mr. Clay.
The dull, heavy sleep of the Park people, how
ever, is about to be broken; they awakening up
to proper view of their position, and if they have
not brushed up the theatre so thoroughly as they
might have done, they have done what is better, by
brushing up good stock company, together with u
very respectable portion Of and operate talent
And on Monday next, they intend to make the first
grand movement, by way Of opening the great thea
trcal ball for the season. This will be done by
bringing out the beautiful opera Sf Fdeio; in which,
we understand that Miss Inverarity, Miss Poole,
Mr. Guiblei, Mr.. Manvers and MT. MartyA, will
make their first bow to an American audience This
will crowd the house, at least for the whole of that
week, and wilprobably lay the foundation for very
prosperous theatrical season at "Old Drury'' this
year. Miss Inverarity is most splendid looking
woman, with most excellent voice, and has very
admirable knowledge Of the principles Of music;
with these requisites she cannot fail 20 make great
hit; and the friendly rivalry betwxt herself and
Miss Shirref, will keep the lovers of music on the
qui rive for the rhole season Signor Guibilei is a
most excellent bass singer, and will afford the judges
OF good operatc talent much pleasure Mr..
S-guin did last summer
Mr. Manvers has very fine tenor voice, and is a
much better actor than most singers he will be mis-
erably supported by the present stock tenor singer
of the theatre, for he knows but very little Of music
and has already failed totally in two three efforts.
We shall miss the stock tenor Of last year very
much. Mr. Martyr is good musician, and compes-
er, and has very excellent voice On the whole,
the Park Operas will create considerable
attention, and draw much money to the treasury Of
the theatre That this is "con summation de vout-
ly to be wished" may easily be by the 70 lowing

of the Park has to meet every Saturday
