The various parts we're well filed and the
piece passed of with ec!at. 1.-THE Rough
Diamond" was also complete success The
old and critical thsatre-gOer found, Of
course, some defects and omissions, but the
frequent and hearty spplause Of the audi

excellent one,-testifed to the general sue

iuvidious. Suffice it to say that all acquitted
themselves with credit.
