REWARD.
The last performance was given last night to
another splendid audience and everything went
off like clockwork. We are glad to note the
excellent patronage the boys have received for
they deserve it for their efforts, and also on
account of the worthy object for which the en-
tertainments have been given.
NOTES.
Eliza Weathersby will sail for England in
June.
Edwin Booth writes as follows of the Madi-
son Square Theatre: "It certainly is the per-
fection of a comedy theatre. 1t is be autiful in
every detail. hope, with all my heart, that
Mr. Mackaye will be amply rewarded for the
great improvement he has made in theatrical
decoration and mechanism. AS far as it will
go it is wonderful advance. I don't see why
the same method should not be applied to 9TH
er than the sshiftless scenes of comedies. By
raising and lowering the stages better effect
in changing scenes would be reached than was
wrought in the old way At my (former) the
atre the rising and sinking scenes often had a
good effect, and were appauded especially
where the two movements occurred smultane-
ously, as was several times the case in Hamlet.
If this plan could be successfully pursued on
larger scale-which is yet a questionable old
split-scene style should be abandoned in every
case where depth can be obtained.
Mr.. Longfellow attended the matinee at the
Globe Theatre, Boston, last Saturday, and saw
Miss Nelson act Viola. He afterwards visited
the actress and complimented the performance.
The Boston Traveller says: large house
greeted the presentation of ''The Galley
Slave" at the Boston Theatre last evening.
Mr.. Joseph Wheelock received quite an ova-
ton for his magnificent acting as Norcott, and
the play in every way was gratifying success.
