Fashionable Lounges.
To the Editor of the Theatrical Observer.
Dear Mr. Editor Just wish to say a word — beg pardon, hope J don't In-
trude—will you excuse me, I have to mention, that I've arranged bo as to
rub shoulders with my friends and the fashionable world, at one or other of
the Grand Lounges about town.
Monday, drop't into The Western Exchange Bazaar 10, Old Bond Street, de-
termined to patronize female industry — purchased several elegant things for
dress, use and ornament. — Mrs. P. very particular. — I always pop in at the pri-
vate door, 14, Burlington Arcade, and placing my back against a pillar receive
the " how d'ye do's" of most of the nobility in town.
Tuesday, heard with satisfaction of the New Views, at the Queen's Bazaar,
Oxford Street, so paid a visit and saw The Pass of Brian-con — Melrose Abbey —
The Basilico (f St. Francis — The Destruction of the House of Lord sfy Commons, fyc,
unsurpassed in excellence and beauty. — Paid Is. to view them &other attractions.
Then at 85, close by, chat with mio caro amico, Palmer, Jun. his beau-
teous Dressing Cases are an endless theme of praise with Aunt Paulina, and
declares nothing can surpass his Pocket Toilet I
Wednesday, strolled to TheBritish Artists, Suffolk Street, Pall Mall found it
again open, attracting numerous visitors with elegant specimens of genius — Por-
traits to the life, and Landscapes true to nature.— A delightful display of native
talent, Admission One Shilling.
Wishing to purchase my spring stock, popt into Perring's, 85, Strand, and
bought anew beaver, durable, light, and lasting, only 12*. — splendid ones for 21*.
made a memorandum — kt the only house in London for good hats.''
Just pop't into 5, King William Street, West Strand, for " Coghlans Pocket
Picture of London," only half-a-crown. As Mrs. P. says she is going to taste
the bubbles, bought one of his Guides to the Rhine — capital book — Coghlan is a
judicious Guide Writer, gives you the pounds, shillings, and pence of the thing.
Thursday, visited the beautiful Exhibition of Paintings in Water Colours.
Exeter Hall, forming a combination of talent by the first Masters, and the most
celebrated Artists of the present day. — Such an elegant treat — must soon go
again.
Popped in to see old friend Evans, late of the Cider Cellars, at his Hotel
Piazza, Covent Garden, to get a chop and hear a song — delighted to find he
has devoted his large room to the sons of harmony — sure to be full every evening —
also his Table d'Hote every day at half-past five — nothing equal to it.
Mr. Editor, if you wish for a really elegant treat, go to Tally's Public Lounge.
High Holborn, to which a beautiful Swiss Cottage has been added. — The de-
lightful Euterpeon, several professional favorites breathing "sweet melody,"
Cosmoiamas, and every kind of attraction. — No charge for admission.
OnFriday, I examine Miss Linnwod's curious Needle-Work, in Leicester
Square — just added other beautiful specimens of her art.
On Saturday, I regularly dine oft fish, taking a fair allowance of Brett's Sici-
lian Wine, and a settler of his improved Patent Brandy from 109, Drury Lane,
By the by, Mrs P. has discovered two occasions on which a glass of Brandy is indis-
pensable, namely when we have had Fish for dinner, & when we have had no Fisn.
" Why," said Count D'O — ,at the Theatre the other night, " is Robert Warren's
Blacking like the enchanting Vestris ?" 4t Because its brilliancy never fades, its
^o'ish is complete, and its fame will last while there is a last in Europe !" —
Isn't that a good one? — but I intrude, beg pardon — Your's &c. PAUL PRY.

COVENT GARDEN THEATRE.
The Tragedy of Macbeth, and the Fairy Ballet of The Re-
volt of the Harem, were the entertainments at this Theatre
last night. Madame Mahbran will commence her engagement
at this house in La Sonnambula, and the first novelty will be
Auber's last new Opera, Le Cheval de Bronze, or The Bronze
Horse.
DRURY LANE THEATRE.
That popular comedian, Harley,took hisBenetit last night, and
as usual, provided a capital bill of fare ; it consisted olTheSlave,
a grand Concert, in which Grisi, Lablache, Tamburini, and Mr.
Parry sang, in addition to the principal vocalists of the combined
company ; The Rant Day, and TheNote-Forger, concluded. —
The house was crowded in every part.
ThisTheatre closes on Thursday, but re-opens onTuesday next,
for one night only, for the Benefit of that charming actress, Mrs.
Fitzwilliam, upon which occasion she presents her friends with
a very choice bill of fare.
NEW ENGLISH OPERA HOUSE.
Peake's interesting Drama, called The Evil Eye, was acted
here last night, when Mrs.Keeley sustained, for the first time,
the character of Helena, and although she had to succeed the
best actress of the day, (Miss Kelly ,) we must in justice say
that her performance lost nothing by the comparison ; it was
natural, yet highly impassioned. Keeley was very laughable in
Reeve's part of Zane Kiebabs, and the Drama altogether was
well done. The Shadow on the Wall, and My Fellow Clerk,
were the other pieces.
Queen's Theatre. — Never was the good effect of liberal and
judicious management made more apparent than in the rapidly
increased popularity of this pretty littleTheatre since it has been
under the direction of Mrs. Nisbett. It is now the most fashion-
ableTheatre in town, and the excellence of the company,and the
constant succession of novelties of a light and pleasant nature are
likely to keep up the character it has now obtained. Last night
the house was crowded in every part, and both in the puplic and
private boxes there were many persons of high fashion. The
entertainments commenced with one of Vestris's pieces, called
Hush Money, in which J. Reeve sustained Liston's original cha-
racter of Mr. Touchwood in a laughable manner, though as
usual he was very imperfect, indeed as the commencement of
the performance did not take place till half-an-hour after the
time fixed, we were fearful he was going to give us a da casso

of his Surrey tricks ; we must however do him the justice to say
he was sober. The second piece was a new one act Farce by Mr.
Lunn, the author of Family Jars, and a most amusing" Farce it
is, and was received with unbounded applause. We shall not
attempt to give the plot, as it would take up more space than we
can spare, and beside which, the chief excellence after all was
the perfect mannen.dn which it was acted. Barnett acted aFrench
Marquis, a cidevSnt danseur, admirably. Miss Murray has
raised herself a hundred per cent by the graceful manner in
which she personated a danseuse, and Miss J. Mordaunt acted a
youth with great spirit. Mitchell and Mrs.Orger were equally
good in their respective parts.

studio to view the statue of Kean. He states that the statue is
perfect, and that its attitude and position present a striking-
representation of the late tragedian as Hamlet, descanting on the
skull of Yorick. The block of marble from which the statue
is hewn is one of the most perfect ever seen. It required the
power of eleven horses to convey it from London to Brighton.
Mr. Carew was in town on Saturday and communicated to the
committee that the statue will be ready in three weeks. In the
mean time the committee intend to make a further appeal to the
patrons of the drama for additional subscriptions, and to enable
them to complete this great undertaking with great credit to
themselves and honor to departed genius.
