THEATRICAL AND MUSICAL NOTES .
At the Royal Italian Opera , Covent Garden , on Monday "Der Freischutz " was produced ; on Tuesday , "Martha ;" and on Thursday , " II Trovatore . " " II Flauto Magioo " formed the subject of the " last morning performance" on Friday , and this evening the season concludes with "Lucrezia Borgia" and the grand scene of the Resuscitation of the Nuns , from " Roberto il Diavolo . ' Formosa "
continues at Drury Lane , and is announced to be withdrawn on the 18 th inst . " New Men and Old Acres meets with continued success at the Haymarket . Mr . Allerton , not discouraged at the unfavourable reception of "Forbidden Fruit , " has brought out another French adaptation , called " The Siren , " which is neatly - translated by Mr . Palgrave Simpson from M . Octave
Feuillet ' s "Delilah . " The house has been well filled since its production , and the piece was received with more signs of approbation than its predecessor . At the St . James ' s a new extravaganza , bearing the title of " La Belle Sauvage , " has been produced . It is identical with " Pocahontas ; or the Gentle Savage , " originally written for the American stage , and was produced at the Princess ' s in 1861 . It is improved by the excision of numerous Americanisms , which were neither understood
nor appreciated on its first representation in this country .- ; At Sadler ' s Wells , under the direction of Mr . R . Edgar , a series of Shal-csperian and other representations have been given during the week , Mr . Pennington , Miss Eliza Clayton , and Mrs . Eburne sustaining the principal characters . At the Queen ' s , the "Turn of the Tide" having reached the 162 nd representation , has
been replaced by a new four-act drama by the same author , entitled , " Morden Grange , " being a dramatic adaptation of Mark Lemon ' s novel , "Wait for the End . " The characters were well sustained , and the piece was favourably received by the audience . At the Princess ' s Theatre , Bro . Roberts announces his annual benefit , which occupies two evenings ( the 13 th and 14 th inst . )
Those who have attended on former occasions , and who have witnessed the extra attractions provided , invariably look forward to the occasion of Bro . Roberts ' s nights , who , we may state , is about to close his connection with the Princess ' s , having accepted the position of acting manager to Mr . Mansell , at the Lyceum Theatre , in January next . On this occasion Miss Florence Roberts , daughter of Mr . and Mrs . Roberts ( Miss Rebecca Isaacs ) , ¦ will make her debut .
F More new theatres are in prepai'ation . A company is about to erect one on the site of Savile House ( pity they could not have managed to get the " Square" ) , and another , situate at Sloane-square , is building for Belgravia .
