his life just sucli a burden as a man ' s life , . under such- ' . circumstances , is likely to be . Just as he is about to take final leave of his senses , his wife relents , and matters are made up after the most approved histrionic fashion . The dramatis ysersonce comprise a certain Mr . Ormonde and a certain Colonel Pompley , enacted by Mr . JFarrel arid Mr . Lambert , who try to surplant one another in the good graces of a lady who is conspicuous by her absence from the plot of the piece . Both novelties were highly successful , and the principal artistes were called upon to appear before the curtain . Hayhaeket Theatee . —There have heen two " revivals" at this hoitse dui'ing the current week . In the . Irish Ambassador , Mr . John Brougham finds ample scope and verge enough to trace , not certainly that peculiar line of characters alluded to by the Bard in Gray ' s poem , but one of those characters which belong emphatically to his repertdire , and are stamped with Ms speciality ; to wit , that of Sir Patrick O'Plenipo . In the other revival , The Love Chase , the cast was as follows : —Sir William Fondlove , Mr . Chi i ^ p indale ; " Wildrake , Mr . Howe ; Master Waller , Mr , Villiers ; Lydia , Miss Florence Haydon ; Widow Green , Mrs . Wilkins ; the part of Constance , the hei'oine of the piece wasi of course , assumed . by Miss Amy Sedgwick . Is there any reason why there should not be two portrayals of a character , each different yet each perfect ; two delineations which leave nothing to be desired and yet leaving two distinct individualities ? No doubt the one "which niade the earliest impression will , in the case of most minds , be that which is the most admired . But this is no fair test . We should aim at Catholic impartiality , that universal appreciativehess which recognises no foregone conclusion , no early stereotyped preference , in short no " first love" iia ^ natters of art .. ' The late lamented Mrs . Uisbet has been so ^ identified" -with Constance , that playgoers are apt to measure everything by her standard . It is . the way in all things . There is a tendency in all minds on all subjects to take what is familiar and habitual as the criterion by which toi judge whatever is novel . I A defect it unquestionably is , but not the less prevalent or less potent . Miss Sedgwick ' s imperspnafcion of Constance , is an admirable performance in exception and ^ no flaw for criticism to censure . There is a great deal in the possession of those qualifications of niind , voice , face , and person , which are adaptable for the assumption of every part ; and , iu Virtue of which , an artiste is enable to look every character well ; and these qualifications Miss Sedgwick possesses in an eminent degree . All tlie other roles were efficiently developed by Mr . Buekstone ' s powerful company , whose names we have mentioned above , Lyceum : Theatbe ^ —Miss Grougenheirn , whose new success as Constance , in the Love Chase , we briefly chronicled in last week ' s number , has received the imanimous suffrages of the ] J 6 ndon press , whose criticisms are but an expansion of the short text into which , from the lateness in the week of her first appearance in that character , we were compelled to compress our reniai'ks . Her fame fpi * versatility , as woll aa force and graphic vividness of dramatic pprfcraiture , is now thorpxxghly established . On Monday , The Pioneers , announced in our last , was produced .. The nucleus towai'ds which all the interest of the piece gravitates is ono Jocko , a gentleman of colour , whom ^ the great jnother Nature made up in a hurry , and sentinto the world in a sad state of disarrangenient . By that admirable compensatorj' xsrocess , however , which , is one of her characteristics , she has made tip for defects of symmetry by an unusual aniount of physibal and mental vigour , which enable the possessoi * , Jocko , to perform exploits compared with which those . of Quasimodo , and . all the wonderful dwarf-abortions—rbiack , blue , and parti-coloui-ed—ever known ( or iinkiiown ) are mere bagatelles . Nay , with the exception of that one of the laboui's of Hercules , which must have given occasion to fifty others , and which we need not allude tp , as the facts are in the l-emombrance of every classical eoholar ^ we doubt if that veritable hero himself ever performed anything tp be compared with the achievements of Jocko . The clemonts are at his command ; ho presses five and water into his service , and drowns ' and burns Ms enemies by tho score , besides knocking down whole battalions like ninepins . The character affords ample scope for the display of very great histrionic powers on tho port of Mv- WaUcins , ¦ who personatos our deformed nigger friend . The sceno is laid in America , during the strugglo of the French and' English , prior to the outbreak of the revolution which event uated in the establishment of the United States ; tho story being taken from the well-known novel pf the same name , by tho late Mr . Ceoper , who , wo may remark in passing , was ono of the greatest writors- of fiot Ion that modorn times can boast . There ai'O two peraeoutod lovers in . the piece , tho lady being in much danger of being marriod against her will to somebody she don't , like and won't havo , arid it is on hoi * behalf thnt Jooko work 9 hie mirooles ! . Miss Saville , and Mossrs . Neville , Johnstono , and Lyon , contribute , their talents to . tho effootivo representation of the piece , which , however , does not afford much room itor display by any oharactor but Jooko , The Misses Collinson have nppwed this week in a now ballot divertissement , suited to tho exhibition of their talents .
I . People ' s Philharmonic Cokcekts . —These concerts do more even . than sustain the prestige of their inauguration . Monday ' s programme contained the famous shadow song ( Oinbre legcre ) , which Madame IJeinniens-Sherrington ( who was rapturously encored in it as usual ) sings " in a style surpassed by no artiste in the world . She had two otlifrpieees against her name j there were comet , flute , and violin solos , by Messrs . . Levy , B . " Wells , and Y . Buziau , respectively . The great orchestral works were the overtures to Der Freisehidz and Semiramide , and Mendelssohn ' s Wedding March . On Wednesday , the Messiah was given . . .. wifch the same cast as the first performance mentioned in our last . On . Thursday , Madame Catherine Hayes sang the " Crudele ah no miobene , " and " Xon mi dir ' " ( Don Giovanni ) , . " Before mine eyes , " and "Softly sighs the voice of . evening " ( Der Freisehulz ) , and " The 1 harp that once through Tara ' s halls , " into which she infused that I superlative expression and pathos which pre-eminently distinguish her vocal displays . Two artistes new to this series appeared on Thursday ; Miss Helen jM'JJeod-, who made so favourabe an impression on the occasion of her dehv . t at the Hanover-square Rooms . last season , and who sang " Vedrai carino" with great sweetness and feeling , exhibiting ail excellent style , worthy of one of M . Schira ' s most accomplished jmpils , and such as shows that her native qualities , both of voice and intelligence , are considerable ; and JVIiss Clari JGYaser , who delivered " Where the bee sucks , " and " My piother bids me bind my hair , " with a degree of graceful effect which procured for her unanimous and enthusiastic applause . " O caro imagine , " and ' ¦ O , 'tis a glorious sight , " were allotted to Mr . - W- Cooper , and " Madamina" and " In diesen heiligen hallen" to Mr . Weiss , by whom they were given in the well-known admirable style of these artists . The only one of the numerous " re-demands " which " eventuated" ! in an encore , was Mn '[ Levy ' s cornet solo , ' ^ The exile ' s lainent a" ( Roche Albert or Jtillien ?) . Among the orchestral works was Meyerbeer ' s niarch ( Cam ^ of Silesia ) . On Saturday , 27 th i instant , Rossini ' s sacred masterpiece , the Stabat Mater entire , wil l form the first part of the programme , the seeend being devoted to a miscellaneous selection of " gems . " St . Jaiies ' s Hall .: —The performance of JBUjaJi on Wednesday , . ¦ under ; , the direction of Dr . Wylde , drew together a crowded and fashionable audience . Madame Iiem ^ herself equally great on the lyric stage and in the oratorio , delivered the leading soprario solos with inimitable expression , grace , and effect . Madame Sainton-Dplby smig her parts in that commanding and finished style for which she is renowned . Mr . G-eorge Perren was the _ leading tenor , and gave complete effect to that portion of the music . Tlie basso pai'ts were assigned to Mr . " Wallworth ; and tlie remainder to Misses Stabbach , Chambers , and Marian Moss ; arid : Messrs . Walker . and Henry ; aiid tho whole performance in its . totality and its details wai-i excellent . The orchestra was entiirely filled up to the walls by the band and chorus , which were in the most-satisfactory state of training and efficiency . Messrs . H . Blagroye and Viptti Collins were among the instrumentalists . ] Mr . Greorge lake was the organist . Dr . Wylde himself conducted . The Messiah , as pur readers inay remember , was the initial perforniance ' of Dr . Wylde ' s series of oratorios , aud was given on the 3 rd instant { vide our nunibei- ¦ of the 6 th October ) . The Crea- . tion would fovna a triad , exhibiting in their perfection the three great schools of the sacred drama . Tite Asphaltuui Company , who have extensive works at Millwall , aro producing very superior pil from a bituminous substance . It is called " iiuna oil , " and it possesses the advantages of uncommon cheapness , while it yields a puro soft light , nof ? to be surpassed for its agreeable effect . Although the oil is a bituminous product , it has no smoll , is obloitrless , is not inflainmable , and if spilt leaves no marks or stains ^
