MODJEsKA AS LADY MACBETH.

IL is one thing TO comprehend a character and
another thing to entirely embody and express it.
The character of Lady Macbeth. doubtless is fully
and clearly known to Mime. ModJeska, but her
performance of it, aside from the sleep scene lacks
power and gives adequate impairment of the
inveterate wckedness. the relentless, implacabe
purpose, and the terrible intensity, alike mind

ever.-of which the essence is suffering.-she is
image of spectral beauty, weird horror. and

adheres TO the use of one of Macbeths epistles,

TO lessen the authority of this tragic effort The
great actress is always interesting. but she finds
greater freedom in such parts as Adrienne Lecouv-
