THE THEATRES , & c .
Covent Garden . —The re-opening of tho promenade concerts reminds ua that our fleeting summor has pust aud the autumn ia with us once more ; and to better form of entertainment for the lengthening evenings can bo desired than the excellent mnsio played by competent artistes in the roomy theatre at Coveut Garden . The arrangements are now under the direction of Sir Augustas Harris ,
who is evidently determined to make these popular concerts more enjoyable than ever . To this end he has engaged a capital orchestra with Mr . Carrodua as leader , Signor Arditi aa conductor , and Mr . Wilheim Gauz aa accompanist . Several well known singers are announced to appear , together with many new and old performers on various instruments , while the fine band of the Coldstream Guards
and other military musicians occasionally supplement the orohestra during the evening . The prices of admission have been reduced , that for the amphitheatre being bnt sixpence , so that it will not be the manager ' s fault if his motto , "Mnsio for tbe Million" is not appreciated . The prinoipal orchestral items in the ' opening programme were several grand overtures , and the ever popular
British Army Quadrilles ; the singers were Mfss Agnes Janson , Mdlle . Daria Farani , Messrs . Dnrward Lely , Charles Manners , D 6 me , Signor Abramofl and Guetary , and the instrumentalists were the two young sisters Cerasoli , Signor Zito Mattei and Mr . Howard Beynolds . The usual vocal waltz was not omitted , and is thiB season
furnished by Mr . Edward St . Quintin , aud is entitled " Old England . " This is sung by Stedman's choir of boys and girls dressed in naval costumes , und was well received . Altogether the season has commenced very auspiciously and Sir Augustas Harris may be congratulated on the success of his new venture .
Avenue . —It was only natural to suppose that the remarkable success achieved by the " musical play without words " at the Prince of Wales' theatre , wonld result in numerous imitations , and hence we have had several sketches of the pantomimic order at the muBioal halls whioh have proved popular with the public . M . Michel Cane , the author of " L'Enfant Prodigue , " has now produced another word .
less play at this honse bearing the title of " Yvette , " though it cannot be conceded that it is as good as his former piece . The heroine is a pretty conntry girl , whose lover Pierrot goes to Paris to seek his fortune , but led away by the glamour of town life he stands a fair chance of being ruined instead , when he is saved by a timely vision , and returns home to his sweetheart just as she is on the point
of . taking the veil . The incidental musio by M . Andre Gedalge is pretty and appropriate , but the piece IB too much spun out for four aots ; and in spite of the clever aoting of Mdlle . Dathenes as Pierrot , Mdlle . Avorat as Yvette , and M . Chantard , who impersonates an old woodcutter , we fear that the new venture will hardly prove profitable .
The rehearsals for Mr . Pinoro ' s new play , to be produoed at Terry ' s Tbeutre ourly next month , commenced on Monday last . It will be in four acts and called " Tho Times . " The following ladies and gentlemen will be in the onst : —Mesdarnes Funny Brough , Helena Ducre , Annio Hill , Alexes Leiehton , Florence Tanner , M . Talbot , Messrs . Edward Terry , W . G . Elliott , H . V . Esmond , W . T . LovelJ , A . Sims and Fred Thome .
Bro . James Stevens P . M . P . Z . of Evelyn , Catford , who has laboured for many years in the effort to bring about greater uniformity of working and ritual , and has been recently lecturing on the divergencies aud dtb > itoab ! o points , has been invited to visit Australia and New Zealand in tho interests of the Craft . Brother Stever . s is disposed to accept the invitation , and if anaugements of a satisfactory character can be made will start shortly . —Kentish Mercury .
The Masonio Hall in Govan has been in the hands of tradesmen recently , and now shines forth in all the glory of re-decoration . The hall is claimed to be now second to none in the Province . " Come and see—all aro welcome . "
Messrs . Cassell and Company will publish on the 24 th mat . the first part of a new fine art work , entitled " Historic Houses of the United Kingdom , " containing a descriptive aud historical account of the prinoipal ancestral homos of Great Britain and Ireland . The
work will be abundantly illustrated with higb-cluss engravings from original drawings and trustworthy photographs , and with groundfloor plans of the buildings . It will be uniform with " Cathedrals , Abbeys , and Charchs of England and Wales , " which has attained ouch widespread a popularity .
