The announcement of King Lear to be played
by the eminent tragedian, R0ssi, attracted an au-
dience especially noticeable for the number of

when he partitioned his kingdom between his
dcceitful daughters, and curses she who would
not profess more than her heart prompted, TO his
death-broken down and worn out by sorrow aud

in the moments when his wits were wandering
there was majesty in his incoherent and child

curse was terrible in its whitening force. His
scene upon the heath was intense in It's pahos, its
power, and its effect Of clocution, of ges-
ture, and of marvellous play of feature. In
the fourth and fifth acts Signor Rossi spoke In
English and when IL is considered that he has
been in this country but two months the fact that
he has been able to master so much
of the language as to play two acts Of
q Shakspearean tragedy shows a remarkable
capacity on his part. The audience was thor.
oughly captured by his effort in this respect, and
the applause was loud and continuous His as
