Charlotte Thompson played In "Janc
Eyre" in New York last week. or her per-
Torrance a correspondent truthfully says:
''Her present engagement is managed with
skill, and her recognition is in the nature OF
delayed justice. Charlotte Thompson Is
fervid and emotional. Her voice has in II
that quality OF soul that is like the ring OF
inimiiable gold. No trick Of elocution can
sound the notes of genius. She is altogether
the best Jane Eyre on the stage. The way
wardness and impetuous action OF oppressed
childhood, as represented by so mature an
actress, is something more than the stimula-
ton of art. 1t is Penetrating knowledge
that marks the early scenes of Jane Eyre.
The play is in a measure not current, but
Charlotte Thompson's performances is fully
Illustrative Of the best methods and aims of
the stage"
OF course there is coming tenor. There
always is a coming tenor. His name is Car
dinali; he is described as q ladies' tenor,
handsome as Apollo, tall and straight, with
coal black hair, and steel blue eyes, a tenor
in the prime of youth, full Of warmth and
emotion. He was born In Sicily, and Maple
son exhibited him at the Academy of Music,
New York, as the hero in Trovatore. Car
dinaii braced himself for al glsella yird, and
the public verdict was apparently favorable.
His youth and passion won a victory. He has
a full amount of force, but be still has much
TO learn. Now, although CARDINAL did very
well as Manrico, it is a little too early In the
day 10 90 into raptures about his talent We
have heard Of coming tenors, but they have
never got there; we will not hazard an opinion
as to whether CARDINAL is to prove an exeep-
ton TO the rule.-Cor. Aelos Letter.
It is expected that the new and elegant
roller skating rink, built by Commodore
Davidson, on Fourth near Wabashaw street,
will be opened 10 the public by next Saturday
night. The rink is one Of the most spacious
and elegant affairs of the kind in the north
west. Appropos TO this It is limited that Mrs.
Chas. Hanes, assistant manager OF the
Opera house, is 10 be transferred TO the rink.
While this may be beneficial to the rink the
change is to be regretted, from the fact
that the smiling face and genial manners
of Mrs. Haines viii be greatly missed By the
patrons Of the Grand, with which she has
been closely identified for so many years.
Besides this her perfect familiarity with the
details OF the business and her widespread
acquaintance with theatrical managers Of the
country cannot help but make such a change
rebound 20 the disadvantage OF the Opera
hogse.
Quite 4 sensation was created at the Teatro
Rossini, Venice, a short time since, where
they we're giving Nine. Angot, by the non
appearance Of the tenor, Ange Piiou, at the
proper moment. Search was made every
where, which resulted not only in the assur-
ance OF his flight but also that OF Mile. LANCE.
o. course, as soon as this was discovered.
the public was Immediately relieved, as this
known 10 be the habit OF tenors, and nothing
less could be expected Of one; but fancy the
indignation OF the dear people at being
cheated out OF their sensation by the PeWs
that the lady accompanying the tenor in bis
flight had been his true and lawful wife for
some time previous. The frequenters OF the
Rossini ara eudgel,ng their brains to End out
why tenor should elope with bis own wife,
and have not as yet succeeded in solving
the problem.
