The manager Of "The White Squadron some
bodv else connected with II, says that no play OF
modern times has been so enthusiastically received
anrlpp the week. II this Is II seems TO leave
little to be desired. The managers OF "The "hite
SQUADRON" probably do not care much how Ihe
Frogs or "Anugone" or any other play OK ancient
fines may have been received during the week, ms
long as theirs has ecipsed all others OF modern umes
perbops the fact Is that last week having been IN
the hot part Of the year ohd not much OF week iof
plovs OF modern times anyway, not n great many
Of them were received at all, with enthusiasm or
without.
