TIE MARSH CHnpaEN. 4-pb interest. lex-
hibited in these remarkable Juveniles seem
to increase with every successive represent
tation given on our, boards. The impression
is gaining ground that, independent Of their
years, in many respects, they are superior
to maj ,rity of the common class OF actors
and actresses who play for the amusement
OF thepublic. There are some forms OF hu-
NOR which become more iudicroas when pre-
sented BY childhood, and this may add some
thing 70 the interest of the scenes heretofore
the present company greatly more than o.
binary merit.
The Sea Of Ice, was the attraction, last
evening, and drew together one of the most
select audiences of the season. Miss Louise
as Ogar,sa looked charming, and even out-did
herself. In her interview with the Marquis
Del Monte, where she tells him she :'could
love that man who would bring, bound hand
and foot, the murderer of her family" she
displayed to her delighted audience a
glimpse Of that genius without which 40 one
can ever act. This scene was particularly
grand, and elected the most unbounded APP
plause; indeed, the acting throughout was
most excellent, and received unmistakable
evidences of appreciation from all present.
We have seen the piece put upon the stage
much better, so far as scenic effect goes, than
twas last night, but that was no fault of the
Marsh's; they did their part in the handsom-
est possible manner, and deserved all the
praise they received.
Master George, who is not much larger
than the clarionet he used, made his first
appearance as Jem Bags-a character re-
plete with humor, and one which We had
thought none but old experienced actors
could enact, but we begin now to think that
none but young actors can do that role. We
unhesitatingly say that he is the best Jem
Bags we have ever seen, and we have
seen many; for there is not low comedy
knight of the "Soc and Buskin" on The
American stage, who does NOS think that he
is the Jem Bags. Be undeceived my phunny
phrends, for "That Boy George" leads you
all.
Tonight will be played the exquisite fairy,
operatic piece. Cinderella, in which tt
strength of the company is displayed, and
the petit personages on the stage fully sus-
tain the Illusions OF the romantic story.
