Emperor sent for him, in order to " encourage the young
composer!" You might as well try to be made a
Cardinal as to get a box for the next fortnight.
While on the subject of the theatres, 1 may just
mention that complaints have already reached
me that late dinner hours begin to damage very
seriously the more aristocratic theatres here. Nobody
dines now before seven or half-past seven, and nobody
over is punctual; and so, it is hard to get to either of the
Opera-houses before the performance is at its last gasp
The same applies, only in a greater degree, to the
prose theatres ; and the French do nut like full prices
for half performances so they stay away. The Parisians
are, however, playgoers by nature, and it will be very
long before the late dinners of the upper thousand in-
terfere with the receipts of the theatres; as was the
case in London in the timo of our fathers. " Kean,
ou Desordre et Genie," written by the Father Dumas
for Frederic Lemaitre, and originally produced at the
Varieties, in 1836, has just been re-produced at the
Odeon, with a certain, but not entire, or even great
success. Berton plays the part of Lcmaitre ; but seine of
the audience remembered old times, and were not much
pleased with
his acting. The play has been much altered,
but is yet, to quote M. Henri da Pene, "an absurd piece--
a sublime piece." A very crowded house, even for the
Odeon, assembled to welcome back this early work of that
first favourite for the race of popularity, Alexander Dumas
',tee, author, dramatist, Republican, chef (he is a very good
one), destroyer of tyranny, and saviour of Italy— pand
