Stin the Lyceum was well filed, and tho
size and enthusiasm OF the audience indicated
that had II been for the bad weather the theatre
would have been packed. That large proportion Of
the people present Americans plain, and
some of them, doubt, wished for "books Of the
play" yet the acting fine that the purpose and
main situations OF the drama could not
have been misunderstood even by those
unfamiliar with French. The stage has
a universal language of its own and gesture and
passion and power easy to be translated. 'Frou-
Frou," besides, has been made well known by numer-
Gus English performances and If you dout understand

The particular attraction last night the FIRST ap

preceded her arrival in this country She Is certainly
charming actress Her figure is slender and graceful
and her pretty face mobile and full of varying express
she is mistress, and the dellcacy, the
force the business with which she developed
the passionate earnestness which lies beneath
the howery irivolty of Glberte, were universally
recognized In the third act Mile Clarence made her
nrst great impressions her comedy previously had been
delightful, but there her power revealed. Tho
death scene was realistic without being made vulgar
or painful The play altogether excellently given.
d. Legrand assumed the role of the Count de
Vareas at short notice, owing TO the accident to
NJ. Venat, but the indulgence that solicited for
him the audience had little occasion to extend.
NJ Dalbert was admirable as Henri, and the
effective scenes owed much to the judgment
of Nine. LormianL The character OF Brgard
was capitally rendered by NJ. Gennetier, and
indeed one great merit of the whole performance
was the truthful and natural graduation with which the
whole company raised the tone of the drama from the
comedy in which 1t begins to the tragedy in which 1t
ends. Next to this, in artistic merit were the
tunes OF Mile. Clarence. These revelation,
and should have earned the modiste place in
the cast in the big letters of the play BILL at least
in the small type in which we notice the names Of the
authors are Invariably printed Who played sFrou-
Frou" last night everybody knows, but who wrote 1t
