THE CHAPMAN TaoUpE.-The brief on.
gagement of the Chapman sisters at the
New Richmond Theatre, terminates to-
night, and thus one Of the pleasantest fea-
lures OF the winters programme Of amuse-
ments will be numbered with the things of
the past. The Chapman troupe is ever
welcome here, and their performances have
always given us pleasure; but never has
that pleasure been so unalloyed as during
their present engagement. The Misses
Chapman are possessed Of rare personal at
fractions, and with versatility OF talent
combine Industrious application TO their
vocation. The result is that their rendition
of burlesquesis always not only pleasing,
but artistic. What is more, they are this
time well sustained. We cannot at this
moment think of but single member Of
their little company whose acting is not
creditable in its way. That exception, we
lought to add, is one that Manager Ford
cannot easily rid himself of under the cir
cumstances. Perhaps we ought not to
mention it at all. stag !.
I Tonight we anticipate the Theatre will
be crowded, from parquette to gallery Tor
it is not only the last night of the Chapman
engagement, but it is the benefit night of
the sisters, anda splendid bill is presented.
