aalast.t..-Ttlie celebrated Tragedian hal foetid
tome dilicolty in obtaining his release from the
honours of the provincial amateurs, and the engage.
meets he had made with the provincial Managers.—
Ile was obliged to disappoint the enthusiastic People
a Montpelier and Marseilles. But the reason was
this; he was forced to act at Toulon and Bezieres,
where the people got roond him, took the horses
from his carriage, and bore him in triumph. In con.

up, obliging him to fulfil his engagement as specified
in the previous agreement, at the end of neat March.
