TEE THEATRE" AFTER DARK."-There
was good audience at the Theatre last
night-the dress-circle, parquette, and gale
RES being occupied by no inconSiderable
numbers. The building was comfortably
heated. and altogether the entertainment
was very acceptable.
The play was Dion Boucicault's famous
pictorial drama called "After Dark" 1t is
highly sensational, and one possessing many
points of interest. II is romance OF real
life in London, and was really produced
very well, with illustrated scenery and fine
effects, There is in the piece representa-.
tiou Of the great city and its inhabitants.
fssbionables, adventures, waits, and men
and women of the day.

"Dicky Morris,o a keeper Of low gaming
house near Leicester Square, was intended
to be the principal character in the piece,
hut the play is not suited to him, and he did
not appear TO the same advantage asi many
of his other characters. The real character
in the play, if there WAS any, was that OF
"Old Tom,'' boardmaD, presented by Mr.
Wise; but "After Dark" is, as we have
said, only sensational drama, and de- designed ,e5
merely for a good stock company, such as the
company now presenting it at the Ihea.re'
The entire cast last night did well. Mr.
Stanley is very amusing sometimes. He has
a good voice, aud entertained the audience
with a medley and several comic songs
which brought down the house repeatedly,
Miss De Forrest is pleasant actress, ano
won many friends by her graceful move.

In concluding this hastily-written notice
we may remark that one of the most ENJOY
able features Of the occasion was Mr.. hess'
