ming at this theatre for the benefit of Mr. Van
denhof, whose merits well known and gene
rally appreciated by the citizens Of New York, as to
render any eulogium of him unnecessary On this
casion the admired play Of Lucy of Lammermoor,'
from Sir Walter Scott's novel, was performed. Mr..
VandenhoT sustained the character of Edgar, Mr.
Chippe that of Caleb Bald.rston, and Mr. Seton

nounce summarily the future position she is ent-
tied to hold, IL Is but justice to her to that she
displayed considerable ability and acquitted herself to
the great satisfaction Of the audience. She showed

Oh first appearance, and we doubt not bat she will
make excellent tragic actress. MIR Seton ratified
