The week which just ended has been marked by con-

ST. CHARLES THEATER-The bill at the st. Charles
last night was an excellent one The comedy,
Breach Of Promise is lively and entertaining
piece, and affords the principal characters opportuni-
ties Of displaying their best points. Mr. Burton, as
Ebenezer Sudden, the bachelor, was of course good,
and undoubtedly could have been better We ebeIieve
that Mr. B. is not ambitious of popularity in New
Orleans for if he were, be certainly would not ride
roughshod over the dialogue as he did last night He
is, without question, capital comedian vixen he
does his best to please an audience. OF the other
characters there little complaint to be made last
night, and Miss Denham, in particular was happy in
both her characters.

lifted with all my might, and the planet pulled down
with all its might. The planet beat After that my
ideas of the difference between my viii and my mus

the illusion, that could, OF course, lick, serve

man may be trusted when he says he has good or

ment or Imagination. 1t is only by very slow pro-
cess that he fluids out how much how little OF these
qualities he possesses But it is one OF the blessed
privileges of growing older, that we come to have
much clearer sense of what we can do and what we
cannot, and settle down to work quietly, know
