popular characters the modern stage She exhibits
qualifications which, with proper experience will give
her ultimately high position in the profession She
has been we'll supported by the regular stock company
Miss Emma Harding has played with good deal Of sue
cess the second of and created desire
on the part Of the public to Of her All the old
sterling plays which have long been the stage,

BURROWS THEArRR-A new farce produced at this
theatre last night under the taking title Of "a Dose Of
Champagne" II seems to be translation, rather than
adaptation, from the French the attempt at ocaza
tion being confined TO few hacknied Jokes of Yankee
origin which sound rather out OF place in French plot
nerpolated with English conventionahties. Thusg We
hear of couple of French villagers having hundred
pounds'' left them, OF adventurous old cirandirs
"seeing the elephant and other little
which might have been avoided with little more expe-
rence the part of the author Cosmopolitan az il the
piece however, in its ainties 1t had moderate share
of success owing to the excellent acting and singing Of
MrsC Howard who Is most valuable acquisition to thig
theatre She impaired to the principal character
vaciy and interest which helped it wonderfully and
procured for its author (r J. Moore member Of the
company the honor Of call before the curtain He
made short speech saying that the piece was his first
essay IN this line and hoping like all aspirants to do
better for the future We must ray of Mr.. Moore who
is the Monsieur Tonson Of the establishment that
like his performance OF French characters better than
his French adaptation.
