THEATRE.-We intended to have made
a note Of the perfor nance which took
place at the theatre on Thursday evening,
but owing 10 the crowded state. of our
columns we were compelled to defer il
until this morning, The programme for
that occasion consisted Of two excellent
pieces" NAVAL Engagements" and "Kate
Kearney." We did not have an oppor-
tunity of witnessing the first piece. We
were fortunate enough, however, to be in
time to see the dance by Miss CoNsTAN-
TINE-whicb, as usual was unexcep-
tionable. This lady has ever been UNI
firing in her efforts to please, and has
succeeded in becoming a favorite with
the haJftues Of the theatre. This is not
at all surprising, for whatever she UNI
dertakes to do, she always does we'll !;
and then, when modesiy, elegance and
grace are all combined in pretty woman,
the picture is so fascinating that it be-
comes irresistible. The after-piece was
"Kate Kearney," which, we think, we
have seen played better--mueh better.
Mr.. DUNCAN did not appear to be at all
familiar with his part, and had it not
been for the timely assistance Of the
prompter he must have made complete
failure. Mr.. JORDAN was entirely out Of
his element in the character he assumed ;
while Mr.. ALLEN--who has heretofore
been so successful in every part be has
undertak,n--insisied on running into the
scenery, regardless of the necks Of Miss
CONSTANTINE, Mrs BERNARD, Mrs. Dun
CAN, and other ladies who were engaged
with him in the dance which concludes
the first act 1t is unnecessary 10 say
that Mrs. Bernard sustained herself
throughout in a most creditable manner,
Notwithstanding the numerous draw
backs she was subjected to by the
blunders of others. We hope TO see
"Kate Kearney" bettor enacted when il
is again presented to the public. In fact
we think the Manager had as well try il
over, for Thursday nights bungling Ope-
ration was decided failure. The com
pany can play it, and in justice both tC
themselves and the public, they ought K
do It, ,......a.
We did not attend the theatre las
evening, but understand that the audi
ence was large. To- night the tragedy
of Macbeth will be presented, wher
we hope the house will be crowded from
"pit to dome" vT ss
We win make il our .duty--and w
hope it will be our pleasure--io be il
attendance TO see Lady Macbeth.
