SATURDAY NIGHT. -- A pirate piece, acted first time this season, called FALSE COLORS, is just the very stamp of thing for a Saturday night. It is uninterrupted in bustle and uproarious conflict, and one need not trouble one's head either about its fable or…

MONDAY EVENING. -- A short play in two acts, called SWEETHEARTS and WIVES, came out, exceedingly well got up, played with all the strength of the house, and received with thunders of applause. That "tower of strength" The Queen's Name, was stuck…
