this popular place of amusement have been of the
most attractive nature. Married Life'' was re-
peated last night, and the applause bestowed it
proved the excellent judgement of the management
in putting up, in time when gloom prevails, that

deserve the applause bestowed upon them by full
and fashionable audience. The farce ofthe "Spec-

young but talented actor, has confirmed our pre-
vously formed good opinion of him.
