THE GuETy-It will be seen by the advertise

B0orH, son of the late eminent tragedian, J. b.
Boorll aud that he makes his first appearance at
the GAIHry tomorrow night IN the great character
of Ril-8 III in which his father stood coufes sedy
am0ng the f5rm0st in the front rank Of all actors Of
his day We cannot speak from our own personal
knowledge Of the powers Of young BoOTH. but judg
lag by The criticisms Of the press in Boston and
New Orleans, Electrically speaking, the two most
critical cities in the union, he must be worthy
descendant Of the elder Booru It has been eight
years since we saw him. when be was quite youth,
not exceeding sixteen years of age but even then,
L. was proguosicateI by those who were better
qualified to judge than we claim to be, that be was
destined one day TO mount the throne and sway the
uudisputed sceptre Of the drama. In Boston, no
actor since the days of the elder EEESE, TO whom
Young Boor is said 90 Dear striking resemblance
has created so great sensation His benefit, in
tbs midst Of the pane and depression in the money
market is said to have yielded him sixteen hundred
dollars Ia New Orleans, be met a similar e
caption. The press of both cities was enthusiastic
in his praise.
The comparison Of the SON TO his father whom
many Of our readers recollect-) a comparison natu-
raj and inevitable though generally fatal to the as
pirations Of the sons of great mcu-has been fire.
4uentIy instituted. and young BOorH has stood the
test Of this severe ordeal To have done this, is
proof Of rare genius and most wonderful powers in
one OF his age.
