In that spirit we have frequently noticed the performances at the Theatre, giving most ungrudgingly the praise we considered the manager deserved, for keeping the house open when, it appeared to us, the attendance was not sufficient to protect him from loss. Our notices were occasional, as our visits were irregular; but whenever we referred to the Lazars (as actors), we did so in terms of commendation, and' were not critically severe on anything. We made every allowance for the insufficient support received, and we were complaisant enough to suppose that there really was no histrionic talent in the colonies, except that possessed by the manager, his family, and the ''ladies and gentlemen" whose 'sweet voices' he secured. We sneered not at the taste that, with such appliances, suggested the production of "Grand Oriental Spectacles," or the manner in which they were got up; the miserable contrivances were passed over; the shabby wardrobe unnoticed; the wretched scenery uncondemned, although never appropriate to the piece, nor in keeping with itself, and seldom shitted into the intended position until it was time to re move it again, while, through the openings, the audience were favoured with "long-drawn vistas" into that terra incognita, the back of the stage. We complained not of trees and flowers growing in the recesses of a "donjon keep", or marble columns springing from the deck of a vessel, and were content to imagine a little back parlour a Parisian saloon ; a cottage, with a practical door, an Italian colonnade. We carried our critical forbearance further, and, in consideration of the "rapid succession of novelties," were satisfied with as much of each piece as the players and the prompter pleased to give us, nor did we protest against the curtailments of the one nor the interpolations of the other. We forgave alike the ruthless scissors of the manager and the treacherous memory of the mimic, who frequently substituted his own amusing mistakes for the "ponderous levity" of his author. We have heretofore only noticed to praise, or "with mute expressive silence mused" our disapprobation; but we can pursue that course no longer without a dereliction of duly. For some time past we have noticed, with pain, that Lazar, to provoke a laugh, never hesitates to broach indecency. He deals out, with unblushing effrontery, allusions culled from or calculated for the especial gratification of the ladies of Light-square, who are, we confess, his firmest supporters. But on last Saturday evening he exceeded himself, and so outraged propriety as to merit the interference of the police, who are, we imagine, bound to suppress obscenity on the stage as well as in the saloon or any other public place. If the police have not power to interfere, it is time that such a system of licensing such places were adopted as would furnish the guardians of peace, good order, and public decency, with the proper power to prevent the repetition of immoralities like those referred to. We have seen Lazar "so overstep the modesty of nature" as to compel even the prostitutes to blush, and send the indignant blood tingling to the ear- tips of every decent man in the house. There can, to our minds, be no greater, no more dangerous nuisance, than an indecently conducted theatre —no greater theatrical atrocity than to announce a "juvenile night," to lower the prices so as to induce an attendance of young people, and then to present an entertainment not only indecent, but brutally and unnaturally so. We cannot praise that man's spirit who keeps open a Theatre, even at a loss to himself or his supporters, who can outrage all propriety by the unwarrantable introduction of filthy obscenities in the presence of a mixed audience, including a member of his own family. We are bound to warn all parents against permitting their children to attend this hotbed of demoralization. As the Theatre is at present conducted, no man can sit out a performance without being disgusted; no lady can enter the impure precincts without contamination. Article: A Licentious Stage, The South Australian Register, National Library of Australia, 16 January 1850, 3 A Licentious Stage: Dramatic Hall, Adelaide Times, 11 March 1850, 3 Dramatic Hall—A paltry imitation of a theatre, under the above pompous title, was opened about a month ago, in Leigh-street, under the auspices of Jacobs, Elmer, and Gardner-three fourth or fifth-rate actors, previously discarded by the manager of the " New Queen's Theatre." The place, as might be expected, soon became the rendezvous of all the loose characters about town-so much so, that the landlord of the inn, of which the "Hall" formed a part, very discreetly shut up the place, at the close of the play, on Thursday evening last. The expose at the Court House, in the case of " Lazar v. Stephens," is said to have had something to do with the " canny " landlord's " shutting up shop." In that trial one of these persons was flatly contradicted by two witnesses on oath; another, on being pressed, prudently knew nothing at all of the matter; and the third acknowledged himself a convict, and not married to the female who passed here for his wife. The Register has been praising the " Dramatic Hall," as a " place where respectable citizens could bring their wives and daughters, without fear of their being put to the blush !" So much for his vaunted " Christian principle," and "guardianship of public morals."

[We do not insert the following in compliment to the author, who is quite unknown to us, and, as we suspect, to poetic fame; neither do we publish them to rescue intrinsic merit from obscurity; but simply because there is an honest quaintness about them which we admire.--Ed.] If poets are poor, may not rhymes be rich? Or are both to be penniless?--no matter which; As I'm of the latter, my fortune I'll wage, A man or a mouse, on a licentious stage. Yet I may be at best but a very bad judge, And all my bombast and my splutter be fudge! Should I gain but two farthings, would I, in a rage, Crest-fallen, abandon a licentious stage? But if I'm a man--why debase myself so? A true man could never, I think, stoop so low; A modest man could not, in this present age Even mix himself up with a licentious stage. Yet a reason I have, and my reason is good-- That my cronies and friends all agree that I should Try my powers as logician, philosopher, sage; And prove mankind blest by a licentious stage. But, alas, for the manners! alas, for the Times!! I fear I had better continue my rhymes; For a penny a line if I write half a page, Pays better by far than a licentious stage. For a pure-minded man must be happier far, Than a Solomon was, or is now the Czar: While mad dissipation still seeks to assuage Its thirst, but in vain, from a licentious stage. OLD COLONIST Article: A Licentious Stage: Stray Lines poem, Adelaide Observer (1843-1904), 16 March 1850, 1 Article: Friday 1, March, South Australian Gazette and Mining Journal (Adelaide, SA :, National Library of Australia, 2 March 1850, 3 Joseph Michael Forde, ANNALS OF THE TURF AND OTHER PASTIMES. IN NEW SOUTH WALES AND ELSEWHERE No. LVII., Sydney Sportsman, 15 June 1904 On September 7, 1836, was laid the foundation stone of the Victoria Theatre, Pitt-street, with full Masonic honours. It took over 18 months to make the building ready for the public, and to make the opening night a success, Mr. Wyatt, the proprietor, engaged a company specially for the occasion. In those far off days quick passages to England were unheard of, and the 'cable' was not. Mr.Wyatt did the next best thing in the circumstances, he went to Hobart Town, Van Diemen's Land, so known then, and engaged as good performers as could be obtained and the theatre there could spare. 'The Sydney Herald' in 1838 appeared but twice a week, Mondays and Thursdays. The proprietor, Mr. Ward Stephens, of Gloucester-street and Lower George-street, Sydney, paid but little heed to the theatrical events of the town, though Mr. Wyatt advertised freely with him. In the issue of Monday, 26th, March 1838, appeared this advertisement :- Royal Victoria Theatre. The Public is now respectfully informed that, the above theatre will reopen for the reception of the public this Evening, 26th March 1838, when will be produced for the first time Shakespeare's Tragedy in five acts, OTHELLO. The Duke of Venice. Mr. Collins; Ludovico, Mr. Morton; Brabantio, Mr. Lane; Roderigo, Mr. Simes; Cassio, Mr. Groves Montana. Mr. Falchon; Othello, Mr. Arabin (from the Hobart Town Theatre); Iago, Mr. Spencer; Gratiano, Mr. Allwood; Antonio, Mr. Hollis. Julia, Mr. bnuth ; Daulo, Mr. Gazes ; Marco, Mr.Powell; Giovanni, Mr. Balton; Desdemona, Miss Winstanley ; Emilia, Mrs. Arabin. As an interlude, Mr. Falchon, 'from the Hobart Town Theatre,' sang the popular song, 'Paddy's Wedding.' ' The evening entertainment concluded with the laughable farce. 'The Middy Ashore,' or 'A Spree Upon Land.' The doors were open at half-past 6, and the performance commenced at 7 punctually. The prices of admission were dress boxes (or circle) 5s, upper boxes 4s, pit 2s, gallery 1s. The old world custom of half-price at 9 o'clock, never heard of now, existed then, the pit being the only exception. Boxes could be secured for the night or for the season, to be taken at the box-office from 9 to 11 each day. To prevent disappointment, no box would be kept unless the admission fee was paid at the time of selection. The plan of the dress circle was always on view at the box-office. Children in arms were not admitted, not even at the old country fee of one guinea each. Mr. Joseph Wyatt signed the advertisements as proprietor, and wound up loyally with VIVAT REGINA. It must be admitted that Mr. Wyatt's company was a generally useful one, Mr. Arabin 'starred' in bills and advertisements, and Miss Winstanley ditto, ditto, not objecting to appear in such a farce as 'The Middy Ashore.' Mr. Wyatt took care to expand the list of characters in 'Othello' in a way that the Divine William never dreamt of. I am under the impression that, in the present day, if 'Othello' were produced in anything like good form, that an Irish comic song would not be tolerated immediately after it. 'Paddy's Wedding,' however, brings back reminiscences of John Drew and Billy O'Neill, who first, I think, introduced the rollicking song to the Melbourne public. The Mr. Morton who played Ludovico was a near relative— brother, I believe— of Mr. Maddison Morton, the dramatic author. On Mr. Morton's decease his widow kept for a time a tobacconist's shop in Market street, combining the business with newsagency and bookselling. The shop was No. 72, within two doors of Pitt-street, and now built over by Farmer and Co. The lady was there in 1878. Commenting on the performance of Shakespeare's grand tragedy, the first time, I think, of its production in Australia (Arabin may have played the part in Van Diemen's Land), the 'Herald' critic gave the star credit for a 'chaste conception of the character,' his great fault being that he delivered all soliloquies to the audience, a fault not confined to Mr. Arabin, as most of the old time tragedians always took the audience 'into their confidence,' Mr. Spencer "played that pretty rascal lago well but confided all his villainy to the audience," the critic no doubt thinking that Spencer should have kept his villainy well bottled up until the closing scene. I have seen many Iagos, but never yet saw one who could conceal his villainy. Though excellent in comedy, Miss Winstanley and Mrs. Arabin were counted rank failures in tragedy. The critic considered that Mr. Groves misconceived the character of Cassio, and as to the farce, Mrs. Murray, "a petite little lady with a shrill voice, was animated and likely to become a favourite." Strange to say, the critic admitted that he had forgotten the name of the man who sang the comic song, 'but it served to amuse.' The 'Herald's' critic did for the opening night of the Victoria Theatre what John Baldwin Buckstone once said that a critic did for one of his dramas, "Damned it with faint praise." Mr. Wyatt, anxious to please his patrons, added to his company. He had a monopoly now. After Mr. Barnet Levey's death, the widow continued to direct the Theatre Royal, but the strain appears to have broken her health, as in the issue of the 'Herald' which announces the opening of the Victoria Theatre, she advertises her thanks to those who sympathised with her in her trouble, and attributes her illness to the cares and worries of theatrical management. She was not the first nor the last who suffered worries from theatrical management. Added to Mr. Wyatt's company at the. time were Mr. and Miss Lazar, Mr. and Mrs. Cameron, and Mrs.Clarke. At one time the name Lazar was a household word In Australian theatricals. Some years ago a son of this old-time actor had the lease of the Theatre Royal, Castlereagh-street. Mr. John Henry Want, now K.C., then a pushing junior barrister and a patron of all legitimate sport, in which may be included the drama, had business relations with Mr. Samuel Lazar. On occasions the 'treasury' required assistance to enable the 'ghost' to walk with comfort, and on such occasions Mr. Want generously came to Mr. Lazar's aid— I think at one time Lazar's indebtedness to Mr. Want amounted to £600, good coin of the realm advanced to keep the theatre going. As some sort of security, Mr. Lazar gave Mr. Want control of the O.P. box for his private use and that of his friends. While Mr. Lazar was in active management Mr. Want and his friends enjoyed the occupation of the O.P. box without let or hindrance. But evil days fell upon Mr. Lazar; he lost his reason, and was confined until his death in one of the asylums. His interest was still maintained in the theatre; his daughter, Miss Victoria Lazar, afterwards Mrs. Moss succeeded to her father's interest in the lease. But the lady questioned Mr Want’s rights and felt disposed to dispute his possession of the O. P. box. Unfortunately for Mr Want, all the documents and memoranda in connection with his transactions with Mr. Sam Lazar were destroyed in a fire which took place on his premises. Mrs. Moss, however, temporised (I am writing entirely from memory), and agreed that Mr. Want should have the box alternate nights, Mrs. Moss and her friends occupying it for the other three. For peace sake, I presume, Mr. Want agreed to this, and for a time things went on amicably enough. But Mrs. Moss tired of the arrangement, and blocked Mr. Want's entry altogether. Then Mr. J. H. Want went to law. He invoked the aid of the Chief Judge in Equity. The matter, like most Chancery matters, dragged its slow length along for many months, if not years. Then Mr. Justice Owen gave his verdict against Mr. Want. The latter was not satisfied; he appealed to the Full Court and again was beaten. But he was not faint-hearted. He had helped Sam Lazar with good coin, and if he could not recover that he would at least have the 'compensation' that Lazar in his time had allowed him the use of the O.P. box. Mr Want appealed to the Privy Council, and, fate of fates, while the appeal was under way, another 'authority' stepped in and ended the proceedings. In 1892 the 'fire fiend' seized the Theatre Royal, and ended not only Jack Want's long-drawn-out suit, but also Miss Victoria Lazar's (Mrs. Moss) interest in the lease. As fire had destroyed the theatre, there was no theatre to lease! The costs, which all fell on Mr. Want, must have been simply enormous. In the last moments of the Theatre Royal Mr. George Musgrove was manager, with Mr. C. L. Goodman as treasurer, Sam Lazar's representative being the lessee. The management of the Victoria Theatre, as was absolutely necessary, varied its programme to suit its patron’s tragedy, melodrama, comedy, and farce, with good, bad, and indifferent actors, until the beginning of the year 1841, when a new actor of some old country note struck Sydney. This was none other than FRANCIS NESBITT M'CRON, a name yet remembered by some ancient Playgoers. Not many, however, remember him, but those who do remember Nesbitt— his stage name— place him next to G. V. Brooke. My dead friend, Sam Banks, a personal friend and devoted admirer of Mr. Nesbitt's, placed me in possession of much relating to the private history of the actor. M'Cron was a native of Manchester (England), born in 1809. His mother was named Armstrong, his father a captain in the army. Nesbitt M'Cron was educated for the medical profession, but his taste for amateur theatricals led him to the stage. He stood 5ft 10in in height, very erect in gait, and walked as if on parade. His voice was powerful and melodious. My thirty-years' friend, John Bennett, whose life-long experience of actors ought to make him a judge, says that Nesbitt's voice was the most musical that he ever heard. M'Cron 's resolution to adopt the stage as a profession was distasteful to his family, but he had made his choice and was determined on following it. Under his second name, Nesbitt, he became a member of a travelling company in Ireland, in the course of which he met G.V. Brooke and Barry Sullivan. Of both these great actors Nesbitt spoke in the warmest terms of friendship and affection. After touring England, Nesbitt struck Scotland, where he met Gordon Griffiths, who subsequently came to Sydney. From Glasgow, in 1840, Nesbitt returned to Ireland, at the request of his relatives, who still thought to wean him from the stage. During a visit to Cork he met Miss Annie Mills, the daughter of respectable parents, and wooed her, but the parents objected, not to the man, but to his profession. Failing their consent, Nesbitt eloped with the lady and married her. In 1840 the couple took passages in the ship Marchioness of Bute, and arrived in Sydney on January 7, 1841. Nesbitt brought letters of introduction to several big people. Governor Gipps being among the number. That to the Governor was never delivered; the others secured him a billet as tidewaiter in the Customs, Henry Parkes occupying a similar billet about the same time. A quarrel with a superior officer induced him to throw up the appointment. In checking cargo Nesbitt wished to sit, the superior officer ordered him to stand, and Mr. Nesbitt 'cut and run.' Failing to get other employment, Nesbitt joined the police force, and for a part of one night walked 'a beat' in Sydney streets. He resigned in the morning. At that time Mr. Joseph Simmons was manager of the Victoria Theatre, and to him went Mr. Nesbitt. As the latter had been brought up in the south of Ireland he had just “the last taste of the brogue” on his tongue, but could, when he pleased, lay, aside the 'accent.' While conversing with Mr. Simmons, Nesbitt unconsciously used the brogue, which set Mr. Simmons, a Hebrew with a "lisp," in roaring laughter. The idea of playing Hamlet with an Irish brogue tickled the fancy of the Hebrew manager. Mr. Nesbitt, however, gave 'Rolla's address to the Peruvians' in a style and in an accent never before heard by Mr. Simmons. There was no trace of brogue, and the Hebrew, who could tell a good thing when he saw it, immediately closed with the new actor, who had dropped unheralded amongst them. The play of 'Pizzaro' was in rehearsal, Mr. Simmons being the Rolla, but he generously gave up the part to Nesbitt. There was but a peer attendance, but by the time half price had arrived the people in the street heard that a genius was playing at the Vic., and the house became crowded. Nesbitt next appeared as Richard III, crowding the house for fourteen nights, an unprecedented run for Shakespeare at such a time, and a distinct tribute to the great merits of the actor. His list of characters during this engagement consisted of William Tell, Rolla, Othello, Macbeth, Richard III, Sir Giles Overreach, Octavian, Sir Edward Mortimer, and Virginius. As indicating Mr. Nesbitt's real character, it may be mentioned that when he accepted the engagement with Simmons, Mr. Conrad Knowles, who had left the pulpit for the staged held such parts as Hotspur, Mercutio, Hamlet, The Stranger, Falconbridge, and such. These Nesbitt would not play, not from any fear of comparison, but from a sense of Justice towards the other actor. In 1841 Mr. Wyatt went to England in search of talent, and made some engagements. I think he was absent when Nesbitt was engaged, but early in 1842 the first contingent arrived. This consisted of John Gordon Griffiths, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Deering (the parents of Olly Deering and Mrs. W. B. Gill), and Mr. and Mrs. Mereton (the first-named selected as Mr. Simmons' successor in the management). After a time came Madame Carendini, Mrs. Stirling (afterwards Mrs.Guerin, and now the widow of Richard Stewart, and mother of Richard, Docy, Nellie, and Maggie Stewart, who have all reached success upon the colonial stage), and Frank and John Howson. These came from Hobart Town. Then followed Madame Torning, Mr, James and Madame Louise, Mr. and Mrs. George Coppin and others making the Victoria company a particularly strong one. Of all these, but George Coppin, at 85, remains. Long may he remain! Nesbitt remained with the company, and 'Coriolanus' was put into rehearsal; but Nesbitt's 'weakness' overtook him, and John Gordon Griffiths performed the part. Nesbitt then crossed the Tasman Sea to Van Diemen's Land; and played at the old Albion Theatre, Launceston, and at the Victoria, Hobart Town, for several seasons. He then crossed to Melbourne, where he secured an engagement at the old Queen's Theatre, in Queen-street, built by John Thomas Smith, the Melbourne Whittington, differing only from Dick in as much as Dicky was but thrice Lord Mayor of London, whereas John Thomas Smith was seven times Mayor of Melbourne. Mr. Nesbitt's liking for strong drinks was a source of constant worry to his managers. (To be continued.) Article: Joseph Michael Forde, ANNALS OF THE TURF AND OTHER PASTIMES.

Mr Lazar, the re- spected manager, takes the first on Monday next; and we must say, his indefatigable perseverance in the cause of the drama in Adelaide has been exerted to no common extent. Exclusive of the difficulty of catering for public amusement, we have noticed him in two or three pieces each night, always at his post, and provided with a fund of good humour. As an actor, too much praise cannot be bestowed on him; as a manager, the good taste of his selections and the creditable arrangements of the theatre and the business of the stage proves him to be a clover tactician. The entertainments selected for Monday next, exclusive of Mr L.'s own popularity, would attract a crowded house. Mr Edwards and a gentleman amateur, we observe, are to render their powerful vocal assistance. We trust the public will not be slow in testifying in a substantial manner its approval of the conduct of Mr Lazar. The box list, we hear, already exhibits a promising ap- pearance. Article: Queen's Theatre - Benefits of Mr Lazar, The South Australian Register, National Library of Australia, 8 May 1841, 3 Queen's Theatre, The South Australian Register, National Library of Australia, 10 July 1841, 3 We perceive by our ad- vertisement of to-day that this Theatre opens for one night prior to the regular season commen- cing on Thursday next, when Mr Lazar under- takes the arduous task of an At Home after the manner of Matthews. We have every opinion of Mr Lazar's versatility of talent, and therefore an- ticipate a rich treat. This is something new in this part of the world, and we have no doubt of its drawing a crowded house. The programme of the bill is very cleverly concocted and highly amusing. The concluding part appears to be a complete farce in itself, in which Mr Lazar per- sonates all the characters. We wish him every success. We regret to hear that Mrs Cameron does not join the corps dramatique of the Queen's Theatre next season. She is an excellent actress, and we are surprised that, in the present times, she and Mr Cameron should have refused what we take to be a liberal salary of four or five pounds a week. We sincerely trust Mrs Cameron will think better of it, and not deprive the public of the pleasure of seeing her in re- spectible company. It is quite clear that the attempt to re-open what has hitherto been but a den of filth and debauchery, the Victoria Theatre, will neither add to their wealth or their respecta- bility. Mr Lazar, who has taken the Theatre for the ensuing season, is making considerable alterations and improvements both in the stage and audience parts, and we hope that patronage which has been so anxiously sought for will now be extended to this splendid establishment. We understand the whole of the company have very generously consented to take smaller salaries than they received last season, which liberality the Manager will, no doubt, repay, in the event of the speculation turning out advantageous.

LAZAR & COPPIN, in laying the following statement before the public, regret that their exertions in providing a rational entertainment have met with so bad a return. Nothing on their parts has been wanting to secure the talent, not only of this, bat of the sister colonies, and to produce such entertainments as those who have patronised the Theatre acknowledge to be highly gratifying. Notwithstanding this the losses have been so great as to leave no other alternative than CLOSING the THEATRE after the next TWELVE NIGHTS' PER FORMANCES, when Messrs. LAZAR & COPPIN will then take their FINAL LEAVE OF THE STAGE. ' Adelaide, October 8th, 1851. ' Mr. Emanuel Solomon, ' Dear Sir — We regret exceedingly that, from the want of that patronage we were induced to expect would be ex tended to the Theatre, we are compelled very reluctantly to inform you of the utter impossibility of our being longer able to support it. We, therefore, rely upon your acknow ledged liberality to relieve us from the fulfilment of the terms of our lease. We have only to assure you that nothing but the very severe losses we have sustained, amounting to more than £800, would induce us to make this application. ' We, at the same time, can only regret that the large outlay which you have made upon the Theatre has not met with that liberal response from the public which the spirited speculation deserves. ' We are, Sir, your obedient servants, LAZAR & COPPIN. ' Gentlemen — I am in receipt of yours of this day's date, and am very sorry to find that you cannot make the Theatre sufficiently remunerative to continue it. I was induced by and at the request of a number of influential families in Adelaide to refit the Theatre at an expense of upwards of £2,000, fullv believing that when a place of public enter tainment, elegantly fitted up and properly conducted, was established, the patronage of the public would have been extended towards it. I regret, however, that for your sake and my own, such has not been the case. ' I shall feel myself bound to accede to your request, and at the same time you can, before giving up the Theatre, have it for twelve nights rent free, to retrieve a portion of your loss. ' Yours truly, 'E. SOLOMON. 'Adelaide, 8th October, 1851. Messrs. Lazar and Coppin.' Messrs. LAZAR & COPPIN cannot close this correspon dence without thus publicly returning thanks to Mr. Emanuel Solomon for the very ready and uncompromising manner he has acceded to their request, and at the same time call upoa the public to extend their patronage and support to the LIMITED NUMBER OF NIGHTS ADVERTISED.

An amusing drama under the title of the Crown Prince was performed on Monday last, which was well received. Mr Lazar's personification of the Watch- man's son was admirable—his whimsical em- barrassment on being taken for the Crown Prince excited bursts of laughter; as did the exchange of dress from the Prince to the Watchman. There are some witty allusions in reference to the ministry, which told remarkable well, and the audience appeared to join in the [?] the little piece displayed.

Those who have watched the progress of the season, will admit that no pains have been spared on his part to secure for the proprietors good houses, and, for the public, rational and amusing entertainments. His exertions, both as actor and manager, deserve the highest praise, and we trust will be duly appreciated on his approaching benefit ; for our own part we have no doubt of seeing the most crowded house of the season. Mr Edwards (whose vocal talent is well-known and justly admired) gives his valuable services on the occasion ; also a gentleman amateur, of whom report speaks in very high terms; and the Bill of Fare throughout promises one of the most at- tractive evenings of the season. We can only repeat our wish to see a full house.

Solomon at an expense of nearly £10,000, was opened on Monday last, by an effective and well-organised company under the experienced management of Mr Lazar—well known and much respected as the conductor of the theatrical amusements of Sydney. the theatre is neatly fitted up, and admirably arranged for seeing and hearing. The decoartions are designed and executed by Mr Opie, and reflect much credit on his skill as an artist. We did not reach the theatre until nearly the close of the tragedy (Othello), and can therefore venture to express no opinion on the particular merits of the actors—although we presume it would be in accordance with that of the audience, which was most favorable. Miss Lazar's dance was exceedingly graceful, and met a deserved and [?] encore. This young lady would be an acquisition to any theatre, as, in adiditon to her talent in the ballet, her acting in the after piece, Mary Anne, a farce of Buckstone's, was excellent. She was well-supported by Mr Buckingham, and by the other actors. The house was crowded in every part.
