Vol. X., Ne. 226.—Whole No. 3826. NEW YORK, THURSDAY MO: RNING, AUGUST 15, 1844. Theatricals, dc. Not for a long time past have theatricals been so dull throughout the Union as they are just now. In this city, all the theatres, with the exception of Niblo’s, are closed ; and the same may be said of the other large cities throughout the States. the exception of those establishments, to which are attached gardens, and a few of the museums, there is little or nothing doing. that a whole host of third and fourth rate perfor- mers are “gentlemen with all the outs,” living on their resources. The prospect for the legitimate drama duriog the ensuing season is but very indif- ferent, indeed ; how far the different lady-mana- gers may be ab.e to resuscitate it, remains to be seen. The taste of the people of this country, like that of the old, has undergone a very material change of late years. Music and opera are all the rage; and the artists in this line, from the sublime Ole Bull to the Ebony performers on the bone castanets, are drawing overflowing houses wher- ever they go. Mr. Macready, “the last of the cocked hats,” has, in all probabiluy, gleaned the last sheaves in the field of the legitimate drama in FOR HAVRE—(Secoud Line Frederick Hewitt, Master, will sail mber. bork he to. e Height OF passge, APE CKEN, No.9 Tontine re ‘Building, corner Wall TOWN, ora Port on W; , Master, 350 tons barthes, will proceed as above, THE NOMINATION.

Jack was the favorite, and a considerable sum was booked in his favor previous to the trot, at ten to six; afterwards, two to one were offered, and freely taken. the horses looked well—Juack, in particular, never tooked better; and his friends were, in conse- quence, quite sanguine. About the seventh attempt to get off, the word was given - Jack Cade on the inside, about a length in advance; Hiram Woodruff shouting at the very top of his lungs, as he proceeded. About half way between the judges’ stand and the gate at the bot- tom of the course, Jack swerved, and ran close into Pleasure Boy, and many thought, struck but the judges did not appear to be of However, Jack soor recovered him- self, and went in front, and ere they turned at the back stretch, was some three or four lengths in ad- vance.

Bowling is carried to a great extent this season, with the ladies here, and | assure you some of them make “great strikes.” The most attractive bell of the place, the dinner bell, summons me_to quarters. * Board of Education.
