METROPOLITAN THEATEB.-The Metropoli.
tan Theater was again Tiled last evening, the
occasion being the last appearance of Mr..
Sothern, who took the part of David Gar
rick in the drama of that name His pre-
sentation Of the part was not equal to ex-
pectation. The honors of the performance
were equally shared between Sothern, Miss
Stewart as Ada Ingot, and W. Blakely as
Old Ingot. In fact the stock company last
evening was equal in all respects to the star,
who, being out of q purely low comedy part
seemed to lose the power ne usually has with
his auditors. But in saying this it is not in
tended to deprecate the real merit of his per-
sonation of Garriek, which was the work of
a faithful artist, though not equal to the effort
of Barrett in the same role or, indeed. SUI
peIior to that of others who might be named.
WALKED THEM OFF.-During the most
interesting part of the performance of
david Garrick at the Metropolitan The

of the House" Several were in the tteater
as escorts to ladies, but the Sergeant, while
accommodating enough to await the fall of
the curtain on that act, refused to listen to
their appeals to be left alone" and re-
-Inorselessly marshaled them in the aisles
and marched them off to the Capitol, much
to the amusement of the audience, who en-
joyea this by-play greatly.
