OLD THEarRr.-The benefit Of Zoo last
evening was a perfect suecees. Our play
goers viii be glad to hear that this accom-
Piisbed arfiste vii; remain another week.
Her engagement thus far has lesn very
successful, the audience every night being
large, intellectual and discriminating. I'll
ne might be allowed to give word Of ad-
vice, We would suggest that she drop some
Of her Pantomime and turn her attention
more to speaking parts. In characters Of
this kind, such ss she attempts, she Is very
successful. She is certainly q charming
actress-spesks the purest English, has
voice ample in volume and power, and full
o. Wontsd sweetness and melody. We
claim Cor her chsste and correct concep-
ton, an execution dslicately feminine,
modest and beautiful, and an admirable
grace Of form and action, which much more
than compensstes for that "force" 20 much
the vogue in certain qusrters-that robus-
dous rant with which maseulinisy in dis
guise Is wont to "splif the ears Of the
groundlings." We would not be under |
stood as undertaking force and power in
acting. We only prefer that which adj |
dresses itself TO the heart IS well as 20 the
intellect, and sways by its moral beauty
and tenderness no less than by its mental /
strength. Ia the presentation Of that line
Of characters in which are embodied the
qualities that naturally attach TO l0omsn, it
matters not how strongly marked, so they
be truly feminine characteristics, her act
ing is beautifully natural, graceful and ef-
fectiye.
EEw THKGTEE.-Last evening manager
Allen brought out the Historical Drama Of
wallace, the Hero OF Scotland" We did
not have an opportunity Of seeing the piece,
but understand the performance was ex
eellent and th audience large. The play
from lie title we imagine must be .frsught
with many interesting and startling events
connected with Scottish and English his
tory; il oTidentlybelongs to the Legitimate
Drama, " and as We but seldom have an op-
portunity Of witnessing plays Of this class,
It might be well to repest it. This evening
the Romantic Drama entitled the "Flying
Dutchman, or the Phantom Ship" viii be
produced. The afterpiecc is "Dick Turpin."
PoIAKB's VARIETIES Tonight is the
grand opening night Of this company at
the new and tasteiully arranged Theatre,
corner Of Cherry and Bread streets. We
afe cohuurut thAt we lEAakc y IA 40 CIV
erJ thing in his power to make che Varis-
ties Theatre IN every way worthy of
liberal patronage. Several ladies and gen
tlemen have recently been added TO the
compsny-neW and beautiful scenery has
been gotten up and chairs have been placed
in the Parqueti aud Dress circis--in fact
Sam Poland has spared neither gpains nor
expense 10 render every one comfortable
who fnvors him with their patronage.
Owing 10 the lateness Of the hour at
which we write We cannot give this taste
fully arranged Theatre more extended
notice, but will endeavor 10 speak Of it in
detail ia our next issue. We are certain,
however, that the managers Of similar es-
adjustments in the city will have to be on
the alert, or they viii be left extensively
in the rear"
