The yarIet1e

Camille y was played last night and Miss
Thompson can play CamMe-play it as the author
who created it conceived it should be played The
fair, fixed star of the Varieties made admirers of
all who saw her last night for the most critical
could but have been pleased with the excellent
discretion with which she sustained the chara cter
throughout. without one lapse into the extrava-
gance of rant, or one descent into Iaudlin absurd
ity, both of which are strongly united by the
trying scenes of the part that none but first rate
artstean artistic both of natural genius and cultiya
tioncan resist the tacais descensus with which she
is tempted. Camille was played with great power.
as was manifest in the rapt attention of the audit
ory. and through all the five acts of sustained ey-
ertion we could detect nothing in the personation
which we could wish amended Indeed. Miss
Thompson is SO discreet, so finished and so mi
formly pleasing an actress, that we quite despair
of ever finding serious matter of fault in her per.
formances. At the close of the fourth act she,
with Mr. Sothern, who had his old, and oft-played
New York part of Armand Ducal was forced be-
fore the curtain by rapturous call, and the fifth
and last act closed with few dry eyes in the house,
so carried away were the auditory by the mimic
grief of the stage
So unaccustomed is the world of play-goers to
look for nothing better than second rate ability in
stock actress that it is hard to persuade it that
such an one can be the equal of a professed star,
but we question if there is of these not except
ing Miss Heron, who play Camille better than
Miss Thompson, with more truthful portrayal of
the emotions, with more properly quiet and natural
intensity of demonstration. She died decenty and
most knowingly, and all waited to call her before
the drop curtain to see that she was not really
dead, but still alive to charm them with her art
another night.
Mr.. Sothern was perfectly at home as Armand
Duval, and made some strong points surprising to
those who have only seen him in his comic role.
Mrs. Chapman was capital in her detestable part
of Prudence, and Mr.. COPELAND did his work as De
FdrMe in very proper manner. The other
characters generally were all that was required
being OF little Importance. 1t will be repeated to-
night.

Total packages in all, ninety thousand four
hundred and ninety. Three figures show ex-
ceedingly small stocks, with steady increase of
consumption. 1t will be seen from the above
figures there were only 400 hogsheads of Louisiana
sugar on hand on the first of this month in the four
principal Northern markets. Now, the talk is,
"what are our Northern friends (rather doubtful
friends, by-the-bye) to do for sweetening?' Pay
good prices to foreign countries or producers. They
certainly cannot get any from this point as our
good and closely connected customers, the great
West, will want fully $4,000 to $4,000 hogsheads
