We had the pleasure of witnessing on Wednesday
evening lust. the representation Of this new play,
which has caused SO much sensation i'll the principal
Northern cities, aud iu ST. Louis, and has won for
the taleu'ed au,horess golden opinions on all hands.
On all hands did we say; Move beg pardon. We
understand that the immaculate Horace Greeley s pa
per, the Tribune, pitched into it most turiously, for
a reason, that viii be apparentto any Southerner who
reads or sees this admirable comedy. The Tribune
does not understand the nature Of tho attachment
between the colored mammys Of the South aud the
children whom they have nursed and tended. But
we are getting away fro!n the play to the Tritqss.-
We have not time now 10 enter upon q iengthy criti.
cism of this last production Of Mrs. Datcman, and
therefore content ourselves by saying that in our
Judgment. it is one Of the best comedie, produced
within the last twenty years, and We trust that the
people of Richmond will show their appreciation of
it by a full attendance during the period OF it's repre-
~seutatiou here. We can assure them ~ pUp pay

lie grasps this most difficult character with such ar.
tistic skill az shows him to be something more than s
first rate low comsdian, In which line be is favorably
known to the country.
The character Of Mrs. Apex was admirably sus.
tanned by Mrs. Melinda Joues, WHO has always been
dessrredly a great favorite with Richmond, because
of Ter long residence here, and the great talent she
hos Displayed in her difficult aud arduous profession.
