SorHERs. - Last night there was a
crowded house st the Memphis Thsstsr
to witness Sotbern In the Crushed Trage-
dian. The play was enjoyed by all who
saw it, and proved a very decidedly great
pleasure. Tonight Sothern plays David
Garrick and Regular Fix. This bill will
prove interesting, and as interpreted BY
Sothern receives an additional charm.
The audience to night will have an op-
portuuity to determine the relative ex.
cellence Of Sothern and Lawrence Bar
rett in David Garrick, as the latter ap-
pesred III this play last Friday night.
Tomorrow the Crushed T~ragsdian will
be again presented. We are glad to note
this, as there are many who have not yet
seen Sothern in this great play. Sothern
closes his engagement tomorrow night

Mr., MCCULLOUGH AS VIRGISIus.-The
Boston Transcript, in a long criticism,
speaks of the great actor, Mccullough,
as follows:
Mr.. Mccullough appeared at the Bos-
ton Theater last night as "Virginius"
in Sheridan Knowles tragedy Of that
name. OF his in~personation we can
do little more at this time than to re.
peat what we have often said. Mr..
McCullough's "Virginius" is a piece of
strong, elevated and impressive acting,
heroic 10 its proportions and sustained
upon high level from first TO last. As Q
portraiture of a noble Roman Of the
pristine dsys-the NAV pure in life and
free from crime" the just man and firm
Of purpose, who loves liberty and hates
t~alsehood-it seems to us almost ideally
excellent. 1t certainly has superb dig.
atty without bombast, and immense force
without violence. Even the harsher
tones Of Mr.. McCullough's voice
seem to be peculiarly adapted 10 this
character, and gives his speech Q
quality which BELTS the utterance Of
such q Roman. his im~persona-
ton. although it neve falls from the
heroic type, is not m~onotonous, however;
and the contrasts between the tender.
ness, sometimes playful and sometimes
deep, of his love for Virginia, the virile
force Of his regard for Icilius, the
thorough Roman joy and pride in war.
fare, the fiery but repressed rage of his
repulse Of the decemvir, and the last
horrible fury OF his shattered mind are
most interesting and most vivid. In
nothing Of th%is-except occasionally in
the last act, where the temptations are
almost overpowering-is there any lapse
into the weakness of extravaganza; and
its reserve is perhaps its noblest as we'll
as its most distinctively Roman trait.
