On Monday last, being Easter Monday,

was performed " The Forest of Bondi, or

the Dog of Montargis," which went off

well, and elicited continued applause

from a numerous audience. "Giovani

in London" concluded the evening's

entertainments, in which Mrs. Taylor

sustained the character of the Don very

ably. Mr. Buckingham for the first

time enacted the part of Leperello, and

made a dead hit. The house was very

numerously attended, and every one left

apparently well satisfied.

On Tuesday night was produced, for

the second time at the Sydney Theatre,

the domestic drama of " Lyinesheo

Lovel, or tho Gipsey of Ashburnham

Dell." The piece went off creditably and

received a due proportion of applause

Mr. Spencer dressed the character of Sir

Edward Mowbray properly upon the

occasion, as a private gentleman instead

of mounting the doublet and hose. Miss

Winstanley appeared to be suffering

under severe indisposition, and must

have played the character of Emily

Hathenden with much pain to herself.

To the drama succeeded the matrimonial

duet between Master and Miss Jones,

which they played in a manner that

reflects much credit on those who instruct

them. The evening's amusements con-

cluded with ''The Dog of Montargis,

or the Forest of Bondi," it was very

well got through. Some mischievous

fellow in tho pit attempted to withdraw

the attention of the dog by whistling,

but, fortunately, failed. The house was

well attended for a Tuesday night.
