fusing to complete a plate for the production of forged notes.
The acting throughout by Miss Pauncefort, Miss Jenny
Willmore, Hr. Anderson, and Hr. Shepherd, and the other
performers engaged in the piece, was ell that could be
desired. They were called for at the close of each act, and
were also specially honoured by being called before the cur-
tain at the termination of the drama. The scenery was
exceedingly good, especially the Loganstone and Frozen
Pool in the Druid Valley of Dean Burn, the Exterior of
the Guildhall in the city of Exeter, and the Convict Settle-
ment in the Isle of Portland—the artists being Mr. Wil-
liam and Mr. Albert Callcott, The drama was given out by
Mr. Shepherd for repetition every night this week. The
house was crowded in every part.
