PRINCE OF WALES THEATRE.
Theee was a large attendance at this Theatre last evening. The Ladies' Club was the opening piece in the programme, and was well played throughout. Signor Donato, who meets with a hearty reception nightly, again electrified his audience by his poetry of motion in some very difficult dance3 even to an ordinary dancer. His performance is almost beyond conception. The concluding piece consisted of Sheridan's brilliaut satire, "The Critic." Mr Hoskins sustained his part admirably, and wa3 loudly applauded. The whole play is well worth seeing, and the same programme will be repeated this evening. A benefit has been announced to Mr Morton Tavares, but that gentleman declines the honor.
Eyes have they, yet see not—Needles. Ears have they, yet hear not—Old book leaves. Tongues have they, yet taste not —Buckles. Hearts have they, yet pity not—Cabbages, Arms have they, yet toil not—Chairs. Hands have they, yet steal not—Clocks. Legs have they, yet walk not—Tables. Teeth hare they, yet chew not—Combs. Lips have they, yet kiss not-Pitchers.
