The GREAT THEATRICAL REVIVAL AT THE PARK.
The Park was as crowded last night as on the
precedng-Saturday night too. The extraordinary
revival at the Park has astonshed the whole city.
And no wonder. In spite of the most miserable
management in the word-in spite OF fashionable
dsincnaton to patronize the legitimate drama-
in spite Of the cold chill that succeeded Macready's
cold efforts to resusctate the fortunes of the stage
in spite of the rage for spectacle" and gymnas-
tics amongst those to whom alone sold Drury"
looked for support-the Park theatre has witnessed
within the last ten days theatrical revival that is
perfectly astounding. How is this? The answer
is easily given. Youthful geaus-an actor with
freshness. energy, spirit life, natural and unaffected
style, appeared on the stage, and an influential
Independent public press made him the talk Of the
city, and sent every bedy to see him, and once un
der his influence, there they were kept-surest
proof Of the power and reality Of genius.
The truth, indeed, is, Mr.. Anderson was not
known until we told his merits to the public. He
had only to be known to be triumphantly success
full The public had been heartily tired Of theatri-
cal cant and cold artstlcal actng-the natural and
impassioned style of Anderson was just what was
wanted to stir up once more to their very depths,
the hearts of the people. Mr.. Anderson leaves the
city this morning for Philadelphia, where he plays
an engagement Of twelve nights at the Chesnut
street the atre.
CHEAP PosrAGE.-A Boston paper says" 1t is
stated in the N. Y. Herald that Mr. Polk, the
President elect, is strongly in favor of reducing
postage to the rates proposed in Mr. Merrcks bill,
which passed the Senate last winter" No such
thing. We stated that Mr. Polk was in favor of
I" cheap postage" That and Mr.. Merrick's bill
differ materially. We repeat, Mr.. Polk is in favor
Of " Cheap Postage"
CORRECTION the recent anniversary meet.
ing OF the New York Bible Society, our re-
porter, who is somewhat of a stranger in this
city, in reporting the proceedings Of this meet
ing was led into'an error, by being informed that
gentleman addressing the meeting was Bishop
Chase We have since learned that the Rev.
Prelate did not address the meeting at all.
ALWAYS Busy PLAcR--Wherever there is
great deal Of business done, good articles must al
ways be sold. At John c. Morrison's, No. 1S8
Greenwich street-where are sold drugs, groceries,
oils, paints teas dye-stuffs, chemicals, segars, man
uacturers articles OF every kind, and, in fact, ey
ery thing Of use-there is, at all times, perfect
turning in and out of boxes, packages and barrels.
This is sure sign that satisfaction is given to Gus
toners, or else they would not 60 there. People
from the country, well as our citizens, are sure
TO run to Monison's, for they can do better there
than any where else. See Advertisement
