PirERs' OPERA HOUSE," LADY OF
LYONS The charming, very loving
aud Increasingly admired drama of the
"Lady of Lyons" was performed to a
fashionable and ~appreciative audience
last evening. Portraying rs it does the
intensity of love and pride, and devel-
oping il in numerous and varied phases
to u very extensive degree, this play has
always been and always will be a favor
lite, and the leading characters will
never fail to meet with the entire SYM
patty Of their audience, even though
the portrayal may not be perfect in all
its details. Mr.. Barrett's Claude Mel
notte was, like all his dramatic efforts,
a mastery piece of acting, very true to
nature. His make up too, was ex-
c~elleut, showing off his neat little
figure to fine advantage indeed we
hardly think there was a lady Of reason
able age in the audience who did not
wish herself Pauline, and the play a
reality. Miss Sue Robinson was a very
natural and effective Pauline indeed
we can hardly see where the rendition
Of that peculiar character could have
been improved upon. She is a true
artist. Mrs. Stewards Widow Melnottc
was most excellent, and Madam Des-
chappelles was rendered by Fanny
Hanks very correctly, and in a piquant
and refreshing manner, which took well
with the audience. Beatty's Beausant
was very tas,efully and satisfactorily
| given, and in q manner not easily to be
excelled. John Woodlands Col. Damas
was also q very excellent piece of act
ing. Richard III" will be repeated
tonight, and no one should fail to see
Barrett's PRESERVATION Of the hump
backed tyrant.
