first of our tragedans is established beyond TURNER
question. The performance is not weakened ny Tue
INEQUALITIES which maned certain of bis previous per-
sonaons it is carefully elaborated throughout ana u
satisfying and consistent whole. Ii is genuine en-
bodment Of character not merely an assumption OF
priesty robes and moutbing of borrowed language
The words Of the part are no more potem
in portrayng the actors idea than are every glance OF
the eve and movement of the body and infection ~
the voice There is no imstants forgetfuness there Is
no moment when the lusty vgor Of the actor gains me
mastery over the Characterization; the feebleRess oil
the old man, the harasaing cough the totering step,
the waverpg uncertain gestures OF old age, are smu-
lated 70 the life.
The audience were enthusiastic frantic. In the
curse of the 9Th act and in the great scene OF the 9th
act, on his delivery of the line
Here, at my feet'

LIFE IN NEw YoRK.-A suit for divorce is about TO
be instituted in the Supreme Court which promises 10
reveal Of the lights and shadows every day Tit
ting in New York life. IL appears that prominent
public Official connected with the Street Department
died in June, 1857. He left young and somewhat
pretty widow The widow, though left destitute,
few months after received $780, upon policy OF
life insurance made by her late husband. Five
months after the 1eath Of her husband, the widow
gave birth to postbumOus child. Matters proceeded
in the ordinary routine of life till the Summer Of
1859. Being somewhat addicted to gaiety, the fair
widow, during that Summer season took up her abode
az Long Branch. In her trips TO and fro, the widow
became an object Of attention TO gallant captain,
who commanded a steamboat that piled between this
City and Long Branch. The attentions were not dis-
pleasing and intimacy ensued between the parties.
Abont this time the fair widow was warned TO beware
Of the gallant captain, as he had liege wife and
two children in of the suburbs Of Troy, whom be
bad abandoned. But Love" reasons without reason,
and the fair widow went heedessy along upon her
new career The intimacy increased aud ended in the
captain taking up his abode with the widow at her
own establishment The widow de6ed al slander,
and set malice and gossip at defiance. Unfortunately
however. the naughty doings Of the widow have re.
ceiyed confirmation. Much 70 the surprise of her
friends who yet remained true to her. the widow OF
three years duration yesterday gave birth to female
twins. OF course the matter IL open for explanation.
and that explanation is likely to be established Ii.
