The Cincinnati Commercial, after allud-
at Chicago, where, in five nights, he RE-
ceiyed no less than Sll 400 for his perforihs
anccs thus hints how well he would be re-
ceived were he to visit the Queen City;
"AIr. Forests imagined antipathy to the
West even IL it existed could never with
stand such mark of consideration as this.
We are still In hope that he will visit this
city, professionally; for, although un-
friendly criticism pronounces his acting too
'muscular,n the public again and again
bring in very different verdict-dlfferent,
at all events, as to the muscularity being
misplaced or inartistic. 1t will be definitely
known, before the conclusion of this week,
whether the arrangements for his appear
ancc at Pixies Opera-llouse can be per-
fccted. The only difficulty is with the
stars whose engagements fill all the time
that Mr.. Forrest can spend in the West"

THE TURNER OPERA-IIoUsE was favored
with n large audience TO witness the beau

BdrJeuset." To say that Miss Kitty Blanch-
ards Littte barefoot was inimitablc, would
only express the unanimous opinion of all
who witnessed her impersonation of AmJE
last evening. IL is part undertaken by
few, and rendered very seldom with effect.
Maggie Mitchell has won great fame in
this, and other of the more vivacious images
of our every day life; and yet she never
done barefoot with more sprightly and
lively joyousness than her little competitor
kitty. Considering her dramatic youth
she has promises more fair than Maggie,
and will, in time, If we mistake not, be the
brightest star in the protean school, She
sings well, dances well, and acts well and
with little more study of the natural, and
a wearing awayof the "s,dJiness," to which
the young of her profession are prone-will
