THE THEATRES.

THE deserted Olympie has at last found a lessee in Mr. BuTLETI, a gen- tleman who appeared as Hamlet at Covent Garden a few seasons ago ; under whose management it was opened on Saturday last. Mr. BUTLER delivered "an occasional address,” full of smart allusions to the stage, well relished by the audience, in which lie intimated his intention to follow the tactics of his predecessor,—a creditable intention, but difficult of fulfilment. The eempany is efficient for the performance of light burlettus and broad farces ; though that rara acid " a walking gen- tleman " is wanting. It includes a goodly array of female charms and talent; headed by Mrs. G1ovea--herse1f a host, and Miss FITZ- WALTER, one of the cleverest and ::oast deli eh. cal actresses in the Olympic corps of VESTRIS ; and two comedians of superior tal.eit --Mr. JONES, of the Edinburgh stage. and Moe RIS Bummer : perhaps we ought to par- ticularize a third. namely Mr. G.
