THEATRICAL MOVEMENTS very amusing little
bit of excitement has been created in the theatrical
world during last week by the appearance of the
new stars at the Park. Their standing and talent,
OF which so much had been said in euiogy since
their engagement here, and the general doubt as to
the justice Of their high pretensions, lent sngu
larity to the circumstance of their appearance
which has drawn great many to witness their
performances.
Every one acknowledges the respectability Of
the new stars, but the principal question which
has been asked and which is now in the course of
determination by the audience is, chow little
talent is required to constitute a star, and how
slight quantity Of theatrical reputation of any
singular and remarkable likeness between Mr..
Anderson and Mr.. Macready which is said to
exist, will be from the letter Of our inelli-
gent and sagacious European correspondent in this
days paper-this resemblance in manner as well
as person has been the means of bringing back to
the Park some Of the excitement, the patronage,
| the crowds of former and moro palmy days.
This popularity, might be expected, affects the
other theatres; the Bowery and Chatham accord
ly are, since Anderson's engagement at the Park,
comparatively deserted by the play going public,
fired with anxiety to for themselves and Judge
of how far Mr.. Anderson resembles Mr.. Macready,
and Of the difficulty of ascertaining whether is,
| or is not, Macready himself.
| Well, we are very glad of this, or of anything
that is calculated to restore the fallen fortunes of
the Park; and this will not be hailed by us
alone, but by "a very large portion of the theatre
| going people Of this city.
