was to appear in the character of Davy
Crockett, there was feeling of disappoint-
ment came over us. for visions arose OF impos.
sible Indians, fusilades of stage rifles and q
brilliantly illuminated bon fire, with some
six heroes roasting at the stake. When we did
see "Davy Crockett" however, our first sur
prise at their absence was enhanced immeas-
urably by tho further one of Mr.. Frank Mayo's

power, and q genius of appreciation of the
dramatic requirements, Mr.. Frank Mayo is
to-day one OF the truest disciples of the :" nat
ural school of acting on the American stage.

ST.. CHARIKsT HEATER.-The Wallace Sisters
Last evening the habitues of Old Drury were
treated to the first production in New Orleans
of the romantic sensational drama, from the
pen of Fred Marsden, Esq, entitled
s.Jacquette, or in the Tolls" The play is Of
the romantic school, Astounding in those
thrilling situations which usually finish the
chapters of serial novel, keeping the au-
dience continually on the qui vive for q de-
ferred but approaching denouement and when
the finale is reached results in the old moral
of virtue triumphant and vice punished.
Making no pretensions to Q classical excel
lence, criticism is in q measure disarmed,
leaving rs only room to say that the perform
ance was most entertaining one, affording
ample scope for the ladies and their excellent
company to exhibit all the salient characters
tics of impersonatiou.
Miss Jennie Wallace, as the heroine,
evinced, in an eminent degree, both power
and discrimination by her admirable inter-
probation of the part Her piquancy, dash
and naivete in the earlier and lighter scenes OF
the piece we're rendered in admirable contrast
to the deep pathos of the after acts, where,
driven from high position and elegant sur,
roundings she is claimed by vagabonds and
turned out into the night; the spontaneous
uncomfortable tear Of sympathy was to be
seen glistening in the eyes Of many OF her
auditors.
Misses Minnie and Maud had but little to
do in the piece, but what they had was we'll
done, and the support of the company was
highly commendable.
"Jacquette" will be repeated tonight and
tomorrow night; also at to-morrow's matinee.
THE VARIETIES THEArER.-This evening Mr..
Chanfrau is to receive benefit, and he has
arranged for his programme two acts OF that
excellent comedy of "Sam," and two acts of
Exit" together with the comedy of the
Trough Diamond" in which Mrs. Henrietta
Chanfrau will take part. The programme
should attract favorable attention, as it intro
duces two stars in excellent comedy parts,
which are sure to attract the favorable atten-
ton of the audience It should be remem-
bered that this is the last week of MIR. Chan
frau's engagement, and lovers of true comedy
acting should not fail to avail themselves of
the remaining opportunities of witnessing an
actor who so ably interprets the characters Of
fered for their enjoyment An early applica-
ton at the box office is advisable to those who
wish good seats.
