NEWPORT.
WSDMESDAY, Auevs7 IS, 1921.

Last week, agreeaoiy to notice, the
Theatre in town was opened by The
Boston Company. We have not time
or room at present to enter into minute
discussion OF the merits of the several
performers, or criticism OF their vari-
Gus performances, but will merely Oh.
serve that some OF the best plays III our
language, have been performed with
degree Of ability, spirit, and eclat, which
could not have been surpassed III any OF
our most wealthy and popuious cities.
Where talents OF the first order, and
desire to please are combined, the high
es, qualification to the lovers OF the dra-
ma may always he anticlpated--and as
ne have at this time among us many OF
our Southern friends, we rejoice that we
have now place ofpubllc entertainment,
where intellectual enjoyment can be at.
tanned, and where they can be grsthed
with that species OF amusement which
has been so often desired and sought Tor
by them.
We have been favored with the l1n
of file OF Bermuda papers to Aug. J.,
received by the brig New Packet, Mar
bic, from that place-wc do not, how
ever, find any thing new or interesting
to extract theretrom.
