METROPOLITAN THEATER.-A good, but
not so large an audience as that of the night
before, greeted Mr.. Sheridan last night to
witness his mastery PRESERVATION of Louis
XII, concerning which full expression has
been made in these columns. Unquestion
ably, the audience would have equaled the
capacity of the house but for the single fact
that it involves physical courage of uncom-
mon degree, and bodily strength of unusual
possession, to sit the evening out in the cold
draughts that whirl between the box-seats Of
the metropolitan. One row of one section
had to be deserted last night, because q
board had fallen off of the seat bulk
head, leaving an aperture through which
from whence consumption breeding draushts
whistled. Mr.. Sheridsn's company of last
evening was far superior to that he brought
when he first played here. Mr.. Cotton as
Nemours was, though too veciferous perhaps,
very good. Mr.. Doyle fer too rapid in
utterance when playing Edmund in Lear"
ives excellent as Tristan. Mr.. Thompson,
who was so successful the night before as
Kent. was equally so as Francois, and SO too
with Mr.. Frsncour as Oliver. Miss Hol-
brook, as the Dauphin, was especially prom
inent, and Miss Pierce was a very acceptable
Marie. The "people in a play" are not
often so evenly balanced. When good sup
port is brought. as in this instance, it should
be recorded" so frequently has this CON-
munity been forced to put up with insufficient
material.
FREE L1BRARY.-The Trustees of the Free
Library met last evening and resolved to

! that the company shall make all necessary
repairs. There shall be no music, dancing,
boisterous noises or disturbance during library
| hours. Theodore Schumacher, committee
| from the Hussars, appeared before the Board
and stated he had full power to act, and ac-
cepted the conditions. The Board unani-
| mously voted to close the library Thanksgiv-
ing Day, and then adjourned.
