THEATRE ROYAL.
Messrs Kellar and Cunard repeated their very clever performance at the Theatre Royal before a fair audience on Saturday night. To say that the audience way delighted would hardly convey an adequate idea of the various sleight-of-hand tricks and scenes that were presented. Those who partook of the various kinds of liquor out of the inexhaustible bottle no doubt felt anything but comfortable when they saw it broken, only to liberate a quadruped which, to the majority of those present was certainly not attractive. The gentleman who wdnt up on the stage to ascertain whether the automata which played various instruments and, apparently, any tune they had learnt, really produced the sounds he heard, seemed even more puzzled than anyone else present, and thus added to the feeling of mystery which prevailed. Mr Kellar appears to be simply perfect iu bis art, and none should miss seeing him.
