other markets, as well as proceedings in the various courts of

PLYMOUTH THEATRE.
(From the Devonport Indepe viarent.)
The engagement' of Mr. Macready has. proved a valuable
one for the interests of this theatre, that gentleman's bril-
liant performances having attracted crowd eel audiences during
the week. This great artiste has not app eared before a Ply-
mouth audience fur five years prior to his present engage-
ment, and, as may have been anticipated., much pleasure was
evinced by the playgoers of this neighbor n'hood on beholding
the finished acting of this favourite, not znerely of the Ply-
mouth boards, but of the British stage generally. During
the week Mr. Macready has appeared in Hamlet, Richelieu,
Othello, and Werner, in all of which cht tracters he has been
well supported by the company.
On Thursday evening his Othello w;ts a powerfully fine
performance, and the audience repeatedly manifested
their delight by vehemently applauding: at intervals of
the performance. Mr. Macready had the good fortune
to be supported on the occasion by one', of the best lago's
ws ever saw. Mr. Paumier is an act mr of whose ability,
from the first part we saw him play, we entertained not
the slightest doubt, but, talented as we believed him to
be, we did not anticipate so:much excel' cc ice as he exhibited
in the arduous part of lago. It was one. of the greatest hits
ever achieved by a provincial actor, and the audience, espe-
cially that part of it located in the lower part of the house,
bore ample testimony to the actor's great ability. At the fall
of the curtain there was a loud cry for Ilacready and Pau-
mier, and the former gentleman at on ce responded to the
wishes of the audience, and bowed his ac kn nwledgment. The
call for Paumier was now redoubled, proc eetling from all parts
of the house, boxes, pit, and gallery, and at length that gen-
tleman made his appearance, and received the honours he
had so well earned. The farce on this evening was Mother
and Child are doing Well, in which Mr.. Clement White, the
well-known vocalist and composer, appeared in the part of
Lieutenant 0' Scupper, and sustained it throughout " to the
life." He has a fine rich brogue, and in our opinion is des-
tined at no very distant period to become .a favourite in Irish
characters.
