Tho Theatres,

Notwithstanding the dismally premature

And it is fair to infer, from the selection which
the managers made for these entertainments,
both the prevailing demand on the part of New
York theatre-goers and the quality of the
attempts TO supply IL. At Booths Miss Bate
man personated the r5le of Mary Warner in
manner which fully justified the plaudits
which she had received In London and in thia
city for her wel-studied but natural repre-.
sentation of typical character Of womanhood as
developed by experiences peculiar to domestic
life in the working classes of England, At tho

put money on what they saw. No one ever
thought in those days that the little joker
would ever rise in the world to become chief
