ST. JAMES'S THEATRE

... Don CaarJos was given last night by the German Company, for the first time this season, in a manner which did credit to every individual member of the company. DEvRtENT as Posa, STOLTW as the Queen, FUHR as .Eoli, and GA- BILLUOCN as Carlos, performed their respective parts with a vigour and talent which resulted in a perfect triumph. SCU.LLER'S Don caries is one of his best pro- ductions. It ...

STRAND THEATRE

... STRAND THEA TRE. An ill-written and extravagant burlesque of Sardanapalus has been produced at this theatre, under the meaningless title of Sambo Dampahlum, with an equally meaningless Elis- tortion of the characters of the tragedy ; Salamenes, for example, being transformed into Sally, or Sairey fen es, (being the Timbuctoo for Gamp), and made an old woman of by Mr. HoawcAsTLE; while ...

OLYMPIC THEATRE

... Last night was produced-said to be from the pen of Mr. TALFoURD-one of those extraordinary jumbles of extra- vaganza, parody, and burlesque, for which the gentleman in question has obtained a species of reputation not at all on- merited, as Mr. TALPOURD appears to us to write the most and the worst jokes of any professional penman of the theatres. Not that these jokes are bad on any score ...

ROYAL SOCIETY OF LITERATURE

... At the last meeting of this society, Sir John Doratt, V.P., in the chair, Mr. Vaux communicated a paper from the Rev. Dr. Hincks On an Ancient Cylinder in the British Museum, in which Dr. Hincks stated that he had ascertained this cylinder to contain a sisuch more ancient historical notice than any other document which had as yet been published; and that another cylinder had lately been ...

THE ROYAL ITALIAN OPERA

... The Prophe&e was performed last evening, for the first time this season, and under circumstances of peculiar in- terest. Neither GRISs nor MARIO resumed their old parts. Ini their places we had one stranger, Mine. TEDESCO, and one old friend, but new in. his last night's character, Signor TAMBERLIK. W1he success of the debuiuazie as Fides, and of the new representative of the Prophet, was ...

DEMIDOFF ON RUSSIA.*

... -- Radi starata (as the Russian soldiery say) in regard to this book, for it is a good one, and de- serves that a reviewer should try to do well by it. Its appearance, this year, moreover, is acci- dentally very opportune. The names of Odessa, Sebastopol, Bucharest, and Yassv have of late acquired a new significance, and it is probable that numbers of readers who. would, under other circum- ...

ST. JAMES'S THEATRE

... ST. JAMES'S THEA TRE. - -W The ?? which last year attended the first appear- ance in London of a regularly constituted German dramatic company, and the generally expressed wish that the pleasure they afforded might be renewed, has induced the indefatigable Mr. MITCHELL, who has always the gratification of the public at heart, to throw open again the doors of his ele- gant theatre to ...

THE LONDON ANNUAL SUMMER POULTRY SHOW

... THE LONDON ANNUAL SUMMER PO ULTRY SHO W. The private view of the first summer collection of poultry took place yesterday at the Bazaar, Baker-street, Portman- square, when the general satisfaction expressed by the viai- tors sufficiently testified to the increasing interest which is felt by the public in this new class of exhibition. The poul- try show, which formed a prevailing topic of ...

ROYAL ITALIAN OPERA

... La Favorita was given on Saturday evening for the first | time this season, and the first time for two years. The only change in the cast from that of the last performance| is the substitution of BEL&T'I for TAMrOEILIK, who in the season of 1851 played the character of the King. The per- formance of Saturday was a decided soccess. All the prin- cipal artists were in good voice and good vein, ...

ST. JAMES'S THEATRE

... The Conspiracy of Fiesco is one of the earliest of SOHTL- LEn'S productions. Still smarting tinder the effects of the tyranny of the Duke of Wurtemberg, a vohlntary exile under the hospitable roof of Baroness Wollzoget, the young poet gave vent to the ebullition of his feelings in killing tyrants on paper with an energy and a goodwill which could not fail to find an echo in the hearts of ...

M. JULLIEN

... M. JULLIEN well deserves the Testimonial Concert which took place on Monday evening, and the crowded baf masgu6 which he gave last night. On both occasions Dnrry- lane was thronged from floor to ceiling, and had there been three times the space, that space would have been occupied. The public have testified, in an unmistakable way, their appreciation of M. JULLIEN, and they have taken the ...
