The good people Of Virginia were
never more royalty entertained by any
dramatic performance than BY the
"Hamlst Of Lawrence Barrett ct Pi.
psr's Opera House last evening. A
an impsrsonator Of the Melancholy
Dane" Mr.. Barrett stands unrivalsd.
He il peculiarly fitted BY both physical
and mental sndowmsnts for the impsr-
sonation and he has added years Of
study to his natural fitness for the part.
For . person Of ordinary experience In
stage business TO attempt to criticise his
Hamlet 10. therefore. simply "holding
up before the King unequal arms" II
10 opposing puniness to puissanes. The
advantages are all on Mr.. Barrstt's side.
II IL enough. therefore. to say that Mr..
Barrett played Hamlet and delighted
everybody. II lines Of comparison be-
tween his impsrsonation Of the charao-
ter and that OF others are suggested and
followed, they are never 70 the dissd-
vantage OF Mr.. Barrett. The support
last evening was OF unusual excellence.
In fact. 1t was surprisingly good. The
players seemed all to have caught inspir.
alton from Mr.. Barrett and fairly outdid
themselves. Tonight "Riohslisu will
be played. and, as the Cardinal Duke.
Mr.. Barrett will again delight all pres
emit. The number Of reserved seats al
ready taken 10 very large. Tomorrow
night Mr.: Barrett will take . benefit and
will give two representations. The
plays underlined for the occasion are
1.-THE Merchant Of Venice" and "David
Garrick." Saturday evening. Orchard
III. Saturday matinee, 1.-THE Marble
Heart"
