public estimation FOR quarter OF a century since
the year when the father OF Mr. Wallack CON-
menced his managerial career in his theatre, below
Broome street. and established a character that
was carried even higher under DIR. Lester WalIack.
New York looks TO Wallack's Theatre as the pilot
and safeguard OF the drama-the theatre where
the higher and better class OF dramatic works
ind permanent home. His company is always
selected with o view TO the most perfect cast OF
legitimate comedy 1t Is very seldom, We can truly
say, we have seen good play badly acted
at wallacks Theatre. In saying so much we do
not intend to praise, but to oe just. If mis- com-
pany lacked anything last year 1t was some what

man-the young lover OF the stage-and In the
grand leading lady. The present season will open

The ssSchool. for Scandal
Sheridan has justly been called dramatic star

lesser lights, and his School for Scandal" is per.
haps the most faultess Of English comedies and
contains scenes aud incidents among the happiest
and most highly wrought that comedy in Its brill.
liant range can boast. Hazlitt one OF the most
accomplished and vouminous Of critics, says OF it
that ''besde Its wit and Ingenuity, there is q
genial spirit of frankness and generosity about it
that relieves the hear: as we'll as clears the lungs.

attested by the fact that IN no writing OF such
limited extent have the creations of fancy so
largely become the historical representatives. of
