The author appears to have the idea of
depicting an usual friendship between two
men OF society, Damon and Pythias of the
parlor. One is married, and in adversely is
deserted for richer man, and dies under a
weight Of woe. The friends task is to huut
down the hayward woman, to bring her to
grief, and he docs it, Such thing might
be. and TO that extent has probability. but
such revenge seems insufficient reward for
LIES service. The play has faults enough
in construction, the incidental characters
do.not dovetail we'll into the general plot,
the dialogue is carryed on generally be-
tween two cha, acters at tune, which is
fault: the play is sombre. and much given
to moralizing; Hart,eeN, the eomedian's
part. says he represents Boytoa's interest
in life-saying apparatus, and he is allowed
to enter drawing rooms, with his hat on. and
offer his swimming dresses to ladies with the
persistency Of book agent; he is an inccn-
gruous character, and relieves the piece, but
little. One disposed to condemn the play
might further add that it is extravagans in
language, and weakened by many words
where strength should be, and yet it 10
better than many stage plays fufced upon
the public by E. T. Stetson and Doud
Byron actors. Considering it as an original
piece. and the first work of very young
man. it has great merit. It was well re-
ceived, and we'll acted, and fos the club it
leaves the mefiterious record Of having
done something for literature and for the
stage, in producing . new drama, written
by member, and in which the author
acted leading part. The play, as an en-
teStainme Mt for friends was . success, and
thus glory enough for tho club and fer the
author. vas achieved.
