Charlotte Cushmun at the Varieties.

This lady will enter on an engagement at
the Varieties Theatre on Monday evening,
the twentieth instant. The Chicago
Tribune says of her Queen Katherine, II. the
play of king Henry VIII" referring TO
the second scene of the fourth act, IN which
the broken hearted Queen takes leave of
her waiting women:
In Miss Cushman's hands this scene is
tinged with a pathos and sadness almost
oppressive, and the beholder experiences a
feeling of relief when the most unhappy
lady breathes her last. Next to this scene,
in point of intensity, is hGherine'S inter
view with the Cardinals, in which Miss
Cushman reaches q grand climax OF
dramatic effect by her matchless action and
eloCution. The nal scene was given with
great dignity aud impressiveness, her exit
from the chamber being q marvel in stage
business" A striking popularity of the
impersonation was the impression which it
gave of force repressed and power sub6ued
Though often urged into the extreme point
of breaking forth into violent anger and
denunciation, she always stops short OF
that-always a splendid example of pa
tience. The rendition has none of the
strong, pronounced elements which usually
appertain to tragedy; it is subdued, sorrow
full, sad throughout, teaching a most pa
thetic lesson of womanly virtue and
Christian resignation. 1t is no wonder that
the role is so seldom essayed. Lacking the
genius, almost inspiration, of Miss Cush-
mans conception Of the character, it must
prove the me$st failure, but under her
touch it becomes n thing of absorbing in
%terest, a subject for reflection, and one 20
which a hastv ANALYSIS fails to do Justice.

sympathy for Augustin DRly.

We reproduce this special to the st. Louis
Democrat:
NEW YORK, January 3.-Meesages of sym
patty with Augustin DAILY, manager of the
Fifth Avenue Theatre, have been received
from theatrical managers, actors and
others in all parts of this country aud
in London. His entire company nave agreed
TO stand by him, and he has leased the
Globe Theatre for six months, and will open
it on the twentieth. Meanwhile, the com
pany will play in Brooklyn. Philadelphia,
Newark and other places. Theatrical men
in Chicago, Cincinnati and Boston have
offered to engage the entire company for
the balance OF the season, but the proposals
were declined. Negotiations are progressing
for a site for a new theatre, and the work
on 1t will commence in the spring. The
opinion of DAILY, and also of Appleton, the
treasurer of the theatre, ia that the fire was
caused by an incendiary. The fire marshals
say that this fire furnishes additional proof
of their theory that ~incendiaries are at
work, and that the plot already mentioned
is being carried out. The ground where
the theatre stood is to be occupied by an
extension of the Fifth Avenue Hotel.
