THE LYNCH FAMILY. This ever welcome company opened in the Theatre Royal on Saturday night to an excellent downstair house and a fairly attended circle. Their entertainment was always eap’tal, and it is now better than ever. Not only is the bellringing per formance on the verge of perfec tion, but there are added several novel ties, such n character impersonations, vocalism, and comedy. The chief feature of the entertainment, however, is the bellringing by the five performers. This has been brought by the Lynch family to a wonderful pitch of excellence, and the audience on S..turday night were not slow to mark their appreciation of the efforts of the “ faun’y.” In reviewing an enter tainment of this nature, detailed criticism is unnecessaiy, for it is rather on the general merits of theaffa'r than on indivi dual prominence thatsuccess depends. The bell selections were splendid. , The 1 ) ren dering of “La Marseillaise” and of “Sweet chiming bells,” and “The last rose of sum mer,” was exquisite—it was in fact the perfection of sweet sound and harmony, the rise and fall, the transitions and swell, were astonishingly tine. Besides the bellringing there was some capital singing, notably by Mr Gilpin, who has a veiy fine baritone voice, and good power of expression. The com pany has the further advantage of the services of Parlatto, a “Dutch comedian,” who as character actor,singer, dancer, and generally entertaining man, is a host in himself. The entertainment concluded with an excellent comedietta. The whole affair is most enjoyable, every thing being of the highest class, and worthy of the patronage of all who love sweet sound and thoroughly innocent enjoyment. The company give an enter tainment in Geraldine to-night, but will appear again at the Theatre Royal here on to-morrow and Wednesday nights.
