Slave last evening. The drama wss given
even more effectively than on The first eyeE-
ing, ard the auditors wsrs pronounced in
their manifestations Of the pleasure the en-
tertsinment afforded. There can be 70 two
opinions relative to the excellence with which
The actors discierge the tasks committed to
them. They present the play in q manner
and with an earnest endeavor that should
characterize al the la5ors Of their profession.
There is art in the acting of Miss Davies.
Mr.. Grismer, Misses Bert, Osborn and
Thompson, that rises above the plane on
which the drama itself moves, and though of
a lower tone, the character p5rsonatious by
Galloway, Brady and Stevens are scarcely
less meritoTious. The management has
mounted the play in manner superior to
the usual custom here, and may take prids in
its SUCCESS. The same piece this evening.
