The Romp was the first of the entertiiiimeuts
on Saturday night. Tlie two most prominent and
maiming characters, those of Priscilla tomboy
and Young cockney were admirably played by
Mrs. Bug. and Mr. J. Russet.L. The Kemp is
one of those characters whose interest or power to
excite attention depends almost exclusively on the

Mr. BARNARD played Veritas, particularly in the
