say that 1t is very seldom that company equally
talente has visited our city. Miss Sarah Jewett
and Messrs. Hardie and FAwcett have won golden |
opinions from the most critical play goers OF our
city, and the repertoire Of the company is COM
posed of the most admired dramas Of the favored
class Of modern society plays We are sorry mat
their visit occurred during time OF general
financial pressure which prevented many OF our
people from enjoying tneir admirable efforts; we
trust that they will revisit US another season.
when we shall be able to make better exhibit OF
our true appreciation OF good plays well acted
On tomorrow evening Mrs. Henrietta Chan
frau will inaugura.e a short season, commencing
with the new play entitled Parted, or the Trust
Company Failure written expressly for her by
Mr.. G. w. Tayleure, and founded on an actual in
cident in American business life and social GUS
tom. Judging from criticisms published in val
ned exchanges the play abounds in lively Incl
dents and scenes which are well calculated to
enlist the sympathies and attract the judcions
criticism Of the most scholastic admirers Of the
truthful and beautiful in dramatic art.
The company is composed Of artists, all OF
whom occupy enviable positions in their profess
sion gained after actual exhibitions of their real
mer t. A valued exc lange speaks Of Mrs Chan
fraus acting in he leading character OF the fol-
lowing tt rms:
1.-THE company is without exception imposed
of artists OF a very high order Madam Chan
frau in her acting is peerless. She is entirely
above and beyond criticism. She IS t. flowed
through the changing conditions of her life by
the audience with an interest that never waivers,
I'LL tildt Hey VI - ID Lhiu W ao1i
where she shines most. As the happy " fe,
cheerful and laughing, devoted to her husband
and child, surrounded with all the feliclties
of home life: or as woman stricken Wltf
grief at the supposed death OF her husband;
or as the widow, Indignant, enraged, pronounc-
ing her maledicions on the murderers and
slanderers of her dead and dishonored husband,
she was equally strong in all these various
phases of character. Ihe voice was never able to
exhibit in its changed intomations more exactly
than did hers the llg ltness OF JOY tine detection
Of grief or the bitterness of angry passion. 1t
was simply ininlitable, and although we have
heard her before in the exquisite drama OF
"Dora," never did she give us greater pleasure
than last night" 8 IF
Mr. Dressed, the scenic artist Of the theater,
has been engaged for some time in preparing the
scenery for this play, and judging from the ad
mrabe exhibition OF his skill we have witnessed
this season, We predict rare treat for visitors
to the theater.
The box sheet is already well marked, and we
advise an early visit to all wAo desire good seats
during the week.
THE ACADEMY OF MUsIC.-There was the same
select and .judicious audience present which has
night after night listened with pleasure to the
artistic presentations Of Mr.. Barry Sullivan slice
the opening of his engagement here. Although
his first performance of Richeleu was not exact
ly what could have been wished, he last night
more than retrieved his loss, and gave to us a
scholarly and finished rendi ion OF he part:
Lacking something Of the craft Of the traditional
presentations of the old Cardinal, Mr.. Sullivan,
in his thorough appreciation Of the study, passes
by many points whele others halt, and again
brings out hidden novelties before unseen.
His performance last night was far beyond his
first and was finished, just and careful piece OF
acting, notwithstanding the many obstacles IN
the way Of the actor The New Orleans public
are fully satisfied by this time that Mr.. Sullivan
is an artist Of the highest character, and though
owing to old habit they may have grown INTO
they may hold off from praising too early, yet
talent faiIa raceIYo it6 deserved tribute
in ourfcity, and Mr.. Sullivan has merited and
received it.
The Julie Of Miss Lord was like everything
else she has essayed-ju dicious and thorough
She has, during her engagement, advanced
steadily, and now ranks above many more pre-
tentious actresses.
We must tender the thanks of the public t.
Mr.. Bidwel for recalling old tunes IN introducing
to us the gentleman and actor again, MIR. Barry
Sullivan.
ST. CHARLES THEATER Whatever may be saie
OF MrW f. Cody buffalo Bill and Texas Jack
as actors, one thing is certain, they represent Il
the very life the veritable scouts and trappers o
the plains there is about them none OF The affect
alton or stagness which many modern actor
affect They represent life as it is upon the Dor
ders they are the men whose lives have beer
spent in continual warfare with the Indian tribe
which for years have proven such continual
source of trouble to the government ana Wnicl
have demanded its utmost endeavors to keel
under the control of our laws and within sh
bounds of our civilization. The costumes the,
wear and the peculiar language they use, thoug
probably strange to ne, still are true to nature
and though lacking dramatic effect, command in
terest by this very truthfulness.
Mile. Morlacchi has long been known as posi-
bly,, the best dsnseuse Of the modern stage, AM
has lately developed into commedienne OF n
mean order. She adds very materially to tn
success Of the plays presented by this comblna

plause nightly rendered to the company. Ar
other week will be devoted to the Interpretation
of the peculiar phase of life pictured by thi
troupe, and We trust success Will attend thel
efforts.
