lecture on Tent-Liie in the East" The
reverend lecturer was introduced by Rev.
DR.. Curry in his happiest vein. DR.. Curry

College as the Alma Mater OF some OF Vir-
ginia's ablest and purest sons. Or. Hoge
opened his lecture with vivid description
Of his trip from New York to Pales-
tine, and then told OF tent-liie In
Holy Land. We have not time to follow
the eloquent speaker all through his enter
tanning lecture. All who heard it will agree
that 1t was bright glimpse at life In Bible
lands, and the evening one that will long
live In memory as one OF real intellectual
ENJOYMENT. DIR. Hoge spoke OF Greece as
the nursery OF secular thought and Palestine
ss that OF religion.
The peroration was grand, and, as was
expected, the lecture takes rank With the
already able effoas In the lecture-feld for
which Rev. DR., HOge has long been noted.

TIE THEATRE LAST EVENING. Bel

THE THEATRE LAST EVENING. Miss Bel
earde's Viola in Twelfth Night last evening
was bright, graceful portrayal OF character
Her audience was not enthusiastic, but she
PLAYED the part with sweet simplicity that
won the admiration Of all and but gave
another evidence OF this young artists abili-
ty. Her task was no easy one; and 10 play
the leading role, be general prompter
and stage-manager, with hitching scenes
and stage waits, and to drag along lot
OF sticks, as fell to Miss Belgarde's
lot last evening, was enough to have
put out and disheartened the oldest OF
old stagers. This brave little lady, how
ever, was nothing daunted, and with the
aid OF Mr. Meredith, who made capital
Malyolio, Mr.. Sutton as Sir Toby, and Mr.
Cooper as Sir Andrew Agnecheck, did
much to redeem the many short comngs
and to make the presentation OF Twelfth
Night an agreeable one. The fact is her
support is not equal to Shakspearian plays,
which are most difficult OF pleasing rendi-
ton even to the strongest companies.
At the matinee to-day Miss Belgarde will
appear again as Partbenia in the play OF In
pomsr, and all who attend may be assured
OF charming performance. Tonight Ham,
let, with Miss Belgrade in the titie-role.
