PARISIAN THEATRICALS.

M. Alexandre Dumas has been unlucky with his three " Jeunessesr (" de Louis XIV," "de Louis XV," and "do Lauzun,") none of which have been allowed to mature themselves in the genial atmosphere of the Theatre Francais; but he has been fortunate with a little piece called .Romulus, which besides its own merits, has the advantage of giving an effective part to the admirable Regnier. The German philosopher Wolf is the hero of the story ; and his absence of mind, with the strange manner in which he is made to fall in love in spite of himself, may lead the English spectator to believe that Sir Isaac Newton with his famous tobacco-stopper might be made the Strephon of a similar idyll.
