perfect. Mde. Lccompte delighted the audienc e

The Sr. CHARLEs.-The business at this house has
improved of late. On Thursday another full and fash
onabe audience witnessed the second representation
of that highly and popular play the Lady of Lyons
Miss Clifton frequently andjusty applauded. He,
personaton of the proud but love subdued Pauline
generally correct and spirited, whilst there were
points III her acting that thrilled the audience Her
in the Cottage upon the discovery of the decep
ton prncticed upon her, at perfect sem.
blance of humbled pride and despair The reception
she gave Beausean the wretch no came to insult he,
misery, replete with whitening Indignation; he,
dignity through the whole scene was well sustained
until Claude her deceiver now her magnanimous pro.
tector dhy his generous conduct dispelled her an
ger and again soened her heart to admiration and
love. The struggle hetweenhcr pride and newly ava
kcned affection, the fear that her father would arrive too
to dispel her born desires, the passion with
which she chung to her acknowledged husband while
he tearing himself away from her to acquire new
worthiness to that he had falsely won, proved
feeling to another the varied moluations of her voice
tn different changes her tone and manner to suit the
changes of her situation and feeling prove her no mere
mechanical uterer Of handsome phrases and fine -ent
mens. We have meted out much praise in this crit.
que Miss Clifton, but we have more to accord her
for thought her acting in the last scene better than
all the res it was admirable, full Deep intense feel
ing she expressed her grief resignation, and her love
in manner to make ii thrill through every heart to
moisten every eye
Miss Clifton is young yet, and has improved much
since last season. there is still for improvement
and hers ia the mind not to neglect the studies and Mt
tention to perfect her actress.
Although the piece went off with spirit, and the ac-
tors generally did WELL we have praise for any except
Mr. Scott who certainly played Claude MeIrotte with
Judgment, and although in the first four scenes we
arought him rather cold, he warmed as it progressed
and most admirably sustained his beautiful colleague
md partner.
The lady ofLyons will be repeated this evening.

to be ascertained whether written law is
