acted. and put on the stage in manner
which told Of the care and attention of the
stage manager. The applause which followed
the varied phases of the drama, evinccd the

Tonight we are TO have Shakspeare's great

proves as acceptable to the public as we have
faith to believe it will, it will bear carly rep
