Her Majesty's Theatre reopens this evening. We had an opportunity
of seeing tho house yesterday morning during the rehearsal of the Cenorentola ; and its appearance at once gave the lie to all the tales that have been told of the dilapidated state into which it was said to have fallen since it was closed some five years ago. In the interior nothing is changed—everything looks as fresh as if the th.fattre had closed only lag week. It has not been restored by any laborious process of repaurnior repainting, or redecorating : nor was it necessary, for it appears to have been carefully kept in a state of complete preservation during the whole period of cloture.
