The "Banksr's Daughter" will de.
light Wilmingtontheatre.g goers on Sat-
urday night, and, as it is given by
Collins pserleas company, will doubt
less have a crowded house. The
"Banksr's Daughter" was, as is well
known, first produced at the Union
Square Theatre, New York. ALL New
York saw and applauded it. The
critics OF the "Hera.d," "Tribune, "
"World," "Times," "sun," ETC.,
warmly commended it. For l4O consec.
utive nights it held the boards at the
Union Square, and was then removed to
give place to a piece arranged by a
previous sngagement-the Lost Child
dren. Mr.. Palmer, the manager of the
Union Square, regretted exceedingly
that he had to withdraw the "Banker's
Daughter" but the contract had bsen
signed, and of course was scrupulous-
ly complied with.
The judgment of the many, in this
case, accords with the Judgment OF the
few. "The Bankers Daughter" ia
everywhere pronounced the most per.
feet, most enjoyable, and most powerful
drama now before the public, and the
same judgment prononces Mr.. Collier 5

the profession in the United States"
