ADJUSTMENTS.

Jenauschek's name-an imperial one in the
realm Of art, magical in bringing together the
appreciators of the highest forms Of tragedy
is to be the attraction at the National theatre
this week. With profound regret the announce
ment is also made that this is to be Janauschek's
farewell week in Washington. The friends Of
the great artist, those who admire her genius,
and those who have learned to love her noble
character, will crowd the theatre every night.
This evening we shall see her in her wonderful
assumption Of the dual role Of Lady Dedlock
and Hortense, in the famous drama Of "Chesney
Void" As Lady Dedloek, Janansehek will wear
the costly wardrobe made In Europe for the cast,
and q portion Of her magnificent and regal
jeWelry.
The character is one of the very strongest ever
drawn by Dickens, and in its portrayal by JRnau-
schek nothing is lost Of its interest.
Tuesday evening Januauschek produces the
Earl Of Essex" 1t will be the FIRST time this
grand historical tragedy was ever played in
Washington.
Wednesday night the popular drama of q" De-
borah, Janauschek presents most beautiful and
effective pictures Of the foTsaken Jewish maiden
and reveals volumes Of history concerning
IN obedience to generally expressed wish, we
must again ask Janauschek not to omit from her
repertoire "Mary Stuart" and ''Medea." The lat
ter is especially desired, but, perhaps It cannot
be produced.
Janauschek and suite arrived in Washington
last evening" and registered at the Imperial hotel.
EDWIN BOOTH.
Some stupid ass or malicious creature has been
writing letter full of error and nonsense 20 the
Troy Times from New York. This letter was
quoted into that authority in theatrical matters,
our morning eotemporary. This letter-Wrlter says,
after referring to Booths non-appearance this
season: 81 cannot with proprety speak on this
point, except to repeat a hint that Booths
is danger Of HIS sharing the late of Hamlet.
Every one will hope that this be not the case, but
nothing short Of his temperance on the stage
will abatR the RuHDieiOn that HIS Fetirement IA
due to such cause" Now the truth is that Mr..
Edwin Booth commenced a starring tour early in
December; that he has been playing with great
success in Chicago, is engaged for Boston, Phila-
delphia and Baltimore, and that every day of the
season ia filled up. His mind was never more
vigorous than now. In the light Of such facts the
absolute stupidity Of the paragraph quoted is
seen.
