ST. CHARLES TnEATER.-Last night Mr.. Barry
Sullivan was welcomed, after his brief illness, at
tins theater with very evident satisfactory greeting
by goodly number of spectators. The we'll
known, and generally abased in scenic and gene
raj effect, play of the Merchant of Venice" was
given, and in some scenes very creditably put upon
the stage. Here We have reference more to the
costuming than the scenery.
The Shyoch of Mr.. Barry Sullivan as whole,
did not please us, since it was not marked with
the evident scholarly and artistic study that this
gentleman has given to other characters of the
great author.
Had we space we could dwell at length on what
appeared to us defects in the conception of Mr.
Sullivan as to the tone of Shylock's character.
We, then. simply have to state touching another
feature of this gentleman's acting last night that
there was general wanting of harmony between
actions and words. The aged Sbylock was suiii-
cienty tottering, but his defamation was III some
instances very young and sophomore, making the
contrast too severe. The close observant spec
tator will have recognized this in the first scene of
act third, where Shylock is addressing Salanio and
sa2a''io and alludes to his being /" disgraced and
hindered of half million,'' etc. The vigorous
expression and high tone of voice given by Mr..
Sullivan in this instance would have done more
credit to younger man than '' old Shylock.'
In word, We do not think Mr.. SuIlivan's render
ing of shyock comparable, by any means, with
that of many others we have seen-certainly not
with that of old James Wallack.
The Grdttano of Mr.. Pope had one or two very
excellent points; and if this gentleman devoted a
little more attention to the byplay that character
representations require to make a harmonious
whole, he would add much to his popularity.
Mrs. Cunningham's Pofia exhibited a marked
improvement in this lady's confidence.
Miss Honey dressed well and looked quite a
Venetian Nerissd-that is if Venetian Nerssas
were charmingly full of graceful ABANDON.
Miss Lizzie Maderns Jessica was like all Jessi-
casa fond, soft belle, loving her father some and
the bal 'nas4ae more. Tonight the ST. Charles
