LAWRENCE BARRETT. = Mr.. Marcus Il.
Mayer, business agent Of the Lawrence Bar
rett company, paid us visit yesterday. Mr..
Mayors presence in New Orleans is in the in
terest Of Mr.. Barrett, who will open Shake
spearian revival on next Monday evening. at
the Varieties Theater. Since his last appear
ance here Mr. Barrett has won golden opinions
everywhere In the Northwest, where this
eminent tragedian has just closed series of
successful engagements, he was greeted
with perfect ovation, and crowded audiences
attested their appreciation Of his delineation
OF Shakespeares masterpieces.
We are sure that Mr.. Barrett's advent here

MIS- T. w. LANDER--Mrs F. W. Lander.
nee Miss Jane Davenport, who has been long
absent from the New Orleans public, renews
her acquaintance at the st. Charles Theater
on next Monday evening. Her roles are
strictly legitimate, and we may congratulate
ourselves that an opportunity is afforded to
witness really good acting In her character
izations Mrs. Lander is said to be unequaled.
Not only does she rank pre-eminent in her
inpersonations of Elizabeth, Marie Antoi- |
nette, Cleopatra, etc; but in standard come |
dies, such as "School for Scandal" her act |
ing is marked with vigor and verve. The |
change from the sensational to the legitimate |
will doubtless prove acceptable to the thea
ter-going public, and Mrs. Lander, supported
by her own powerful COMPANY. will attract a
large share Of their patronage.
"a CONSERVATIVE REPUBLIC" The London
Daily Ne,1s sums up an analysis of the French
situation by criticising the French politicians,
who appear to amuse themselves by contro-
versy and strife for power, and make no earn
est effort for the harmony and salvation of the
national interests. "Instead of promoting
union in France" says the Neps, +" in the /.
face Of q common danger, they have for the /.
moment given only new impulse and new !.
weapons to the faction fights of partisans /.
What France really needs, in order to conjure :
away the perils which surround her, is a set
tied government, unpledged to dynastic ALI
Rnces, not bound to revenge straightway the
military honor of any flag, whether white or :
and disentangled from risky social !.
experiments. In other words, she needs
republic. If Germany desires it :.
a the interests of European peace, France
ought not to desire it less in the interests OF
ler own internal tranquility and prosperity"
