FANNY ELSSLER, who had been announced at Covent Garden, is

to appear at the Italian Opera on the opening night, in La Tarentule : the statement that she had entered into an engagement with Mr. BONN is contradicted by the solicitors of the charming danseuse. Sirannian. and DUPE= are both underlined at Covent Garden, where they will sing in English versions of foreign operas.

Miss CLARA NOVELLO is promised at Drury Lane next month. This accomplished vocalist has been a popular prima donna at the principal theatres in Italy since she last sang at concerts in this country : her debut on the English stage, therefore, raises expectation.
