PARISIAN THEATRIC.ALS.

The aggregate receipts of all the places of public amusement during the month of January amounted to 1,707,344f. 90c.

Madame Rose Cheri has made her rentree at the Gymnase in Ie Demi Monde, a comedy which is nearly always sure to bring a full house. We need scarcely say, that this little theatre is the stepping-stone for authors and actors to arrive at the great ambition and aim of both—the Theatre Francais. La Null de r outrage, a new drama by MM. T. Barrier° and E. Plou- vier, is in rehearsal at the Porte St. Martin. M. Laferriere will play the principal part. The millionnaire M. Millaud, turns out to be the "Frascati" of Ma Niece at mon Ours, now filling the coffers of the Palais Royal.

The Vaudeville and the Varietes are preparing to compete with these new compositions, and announce great things also. The month of March is, in consequence, likely to be an important one, at least for the "monde theatral." If nothing new in the political world interferes, it is pro- bable that the Parisians will have amusement provided for them for the spring and summer.

Madame Guyon, an actress of long standing, who has earned great fame in the theatres of the Boulevards, is about to make her &bat SS Cleopatra in the Rodogune of Corneille, at the Theatre Francais. 1?eres d'amour, a piece in three acts and in prose, is announced at the same theatre.

The company of Ernesto Rossi, now at the Apollo Theatre, Genoa, greatly contributes to the progress of dramatic art in Italy. The chief actress, Celestina Damartini, lauded for her beauty and modesty, has had a most brilliant success in Virginia, Electra, and Francesca da Rimini, and has proved herself a tragedian of the highest order. Ernesto Rossi is pronounced to be great in Don Rodrigo, Paolo, Orestes, and Macbeth. Two young authors, Carcano and Cabianca, have obtained success in new productions. A new comedy of Teobaldo Cicconi, The _Lost Sheep, is lauded to the skies. Montagnini has produced two new pieces, Matri- mony under the Republic and The Siege of Rochelle, which are objected to as being too French. Thus it will be seen that many new produc- tions have been represented by a single company within a limited period at Genoa; a proof that dramatic art is awaking from its long slumber in Italy.
