the beholder's sympathy, and she was
twice called before the curtain. Her glori-
ous face and form admirably adapt her
for the representation of the highest ideal
womanhood in patient suffering and lOfti-
ness of character under unjust suspicion
and insulted innocence. The scene with
her lover when the latter accuses her of
perfdy and confronts her with the circum
stantial proof OF her guilt, was magnifi-
cent, as were the later scenes when she in
terposes with her brother to spare his pur-
pose to slay Vicentio, and the scene with the
King in presence of the craven images of
her ancestors. Her defamation was not
marred by the boisterousness to which her
lines tempted her, and grace and perfect
naturalness, accompanied by the spOn-
taneity called for by the requirements Of
the role, characterized her every move
ment. In fine, the roundness and COM
pleteness of her impersonatiOn were the
embodiment and refinement of histriOnic
art such as is seldom witnessed on any
stage.
MIR. Levick's Colonna, Mr.. Lawrence's
F.csntio and Mr.. Chester's Ludorico were
highly creditable performances and round
ed out the evenings entertainment to the
most satisfactory proportions.
