WALLAcK'S THEATRE.-There Is charm about
this establishment which succeeds in drawing thither
ngnt AFTER night large and brilliant audiences. NO
matter what may DO on the bills the public under-
stands that there Is a company Of unsurpassed ar
lists ready to abort them amusement and entire
satisfaction. In addition to the standard attractions
OF the place the announcement that Tobn's beautl
iul aud pleasing comedy Of the "IIoneymoonr
would be given last evening aided materially, per-
haps, IN filling the auditorium. This play possesses
all the requisites for bringing out fully the strength
and excellence OF company such as wallack's j.
W. Wallack appeared in the leading part, Duke
Aranza' ana, IN all justice il must be said he did
not lay it as it could or as it should be played. In
stead OF the quiet Diet ermined air and stuaied non
chaiance which the author evidently intended TO
marx marx ane pars OF the Duke, Mr. Walack gave an
rather misrepresentation, OF the character, mouth
Ing and drawing out the beautiful sentiments which
dences OF general dissatisfaction were plainly per-
cepube among the audience. Miss Rose Eytinge
Jecs OF the tanning process, and read and acted In
most finished style. Messrs. Fisher, Holland. Polk
andron anu Young; as well as the ladies OF the
exceedingly truthful In their dialogue and business.
Mr.. }. II. Stoddart personation OF the mock duke
that could well be found. This fact the entire
audience appreciated, and greeted his playing with
sucn o prolonged ana genuine applause that ne was
ments before the performance could progress The
stage mechanics came in for share Of good ma
tured applause for some very amusing but rather
awkward bunders, allowing wood scene to remain
some fifteen or twenty seconds after the characters
ad gone on and then leaving two huge trees stand
ing In the paror OF the duca palace until the laughter
ana applause called attention to the mistake. The
play passed on, however, very pleasantly and, save
tue dfawbacks above alluded to- was pretty good
Tony PASTORS OPERA HoUsE.-Another potp0u'r'i
bill at this popular establishment this week has so
far drawn the accustomed crowded houses and gives
promise OF like continued favor. Variety is the
motto of the management here and novelty Its rally
ing CRY. In addition to changes in the programme
changes likewise occur in the performers. Constancy
is no more democratic virtue than Inconsistency is
an arstocratc vice. The east side forgets It's whilom
favores quite readily as the west Thus devotion
and admring regard which the wearers OF fustian
and munchers OF peanuts here once bore towards
the Engel has been as Loyalty transferred
TO Miss Alice Selder and Is quite as demOnStrativey
exhibited. Billy Emmett, Frank Kerns and Johnny
thompson gather the homage that was previously
rendered their predecessors new ddnSeuses re-
ceive the need OF appreciation ever generously
awarded the fair by their rough but inlpressionable
dey0tees: and lest it be nvldiously inferred 1t may
be said In each case with equal merit. Tony Pastor
still regns first In the hearts OF his patrons, not
alone for the varied feast OF amusement he presents
but for his own share in making 1t up new ex-
travaganZa, entitled s196S, or New York Hundred
Years Hence" is the concluding piece this week. 1t
Is most amusing.
