ADJUSTMENTS LAST EVENING.


As to the Varieties We have the same old story,
a crowded and brilliant house, and "Dott' on the
stage in all its excellence There is no percepti-
BILE dninution of the numbers now focking to see
Dot as compared with the attendance two
weeks and half ago, when it was first brought
out.
A good house was assembled at the st, Charles
also, to see Mr.. Edwin Booth play Mdcbetlt--a part
of which his portrayal belongs to very high, if
not the highest order, of excellence. There is more
scope and verge for acting,' in Macbeth than any
other tragic character in play nowadays, save
Richard, perhaps, and of course Mr.. Booth shines
in it. His ready and natural tact in suiting the
action to the word, or of saying many things by
action alone and without speaking; his expressive
eyes, and sternly moulded cast of features all ma
terially aid the effect Of his personation of the
wicked Thane. The tragedy was fairly performed
generally being put on the stage with care, and at
lavish expenditure in feeling "supess to play
soldier.e Altogether, the entertainment was very
good-which means a thousand times better than
the lugabrious Brutus of the preceding night. We
prefer the Macbeth Of Edwin Booth to TINT Of any
actor now on the American boards. We don't al
low that he can be surpassed in it by any.
At the Amphitheatef the usual merry ASSEM-
blage in the house, and the usual amount of fun
and first class circus art in the ring.

| While | was living in Adams, thirty-tive years

and there was no likeness of her in existence to
1 my knowledge. A few months ago wrote letter

entire stranger to me, who called snirit artist
| saying to him that had lost my wife thrty-fye
| years ago, named Susan Briggs of whom had no
likeness, and if he should send me one should be

| short time ago received likeness from Mr.. VOL
cott, and think it to be aperfect one Of my wife

regard il as better likeness of her than any artist
