THE EDWIN ADAMS TROUPE.


The Edwin Adams Troupe have come,
and we welcome them again, in Wilmington;
Their play OF Enoch Arden. last night,
was performed to the satisfaction, and great
delight
OF the numerous audience In attendance,
Who made the Welkin ring ike Independence.
We all should rejoice, because we can see
Such splendid acting as they display.
Tha name Of Adams is world-renowned,
But Edwin Adams is the chief crown
OF all the Adams's, that have gone before,
In modern times, or ancient lore;
We mean in the line, In which he's engaged,
OF producing popular plays for the American
stage.
The Company who support him In Enoch Arden,
Would gain great Eclat in Winter Garden,
Or any retreat, where good acting should be,
In this country, or over the sea.
And In this connection, we will mention,
The names Of Martin, Parker, Kuowles, and Cliff
ton,
As bright particular Stars in their parts,
But detract nothing from the other noble hearts.
Sufice 70 say, no one at all
should fail, this evening, to visit Masonic Hail.
