At length, unable to bear up under the resentment any longer, she exclaimed : ‘Aweel! aweel! we'll hae a corpse in our ain house some day! ee then who'll be invited!’ a BG It is said, when the Turkish officer, Amin Bey, during his late visit to this country, attended some fashionable parties at Washington, he remarked, that on going into our society, he expected to see ‘as many’ of American ladies, but not ‘as much.’ rt Bas ‘Bob, who was the first man ”’ inquired one juvenile of another, the other day. ‘Why, Adam, to be sure,’ was the answer. ‘Well, who was the first woman, then?’ ‘Why, Adam’s mother, of course.’ <-<asidsgllgsalame Minima No Dovsr.—A scientific discoverer announces that milk naturally adapts itself to water.

The cast was: Fitz James..+0. .Mr. Phelps. toderick Dhu.. ..W.M. Leman. Killen Douglas...-Mrs. Thoman. If our readers enjoy the following critiqne upon the performance as hugely as we did, they will be indebted to the Evening Journal for a hearty laugh : “Tt is seldom that we have an opportunity of witnessing a performance so pertect and so highly successful as was that of the “Lady of the Lake” last night, at the Metropolitan Theatre. It deserves particular attention from the lovers of the dramatic art, and especially from the public press. We are really sorry that the usual excessive length of our leader, and the very small space allowed to theatrieals in our sober columns, will not permit us to give the matter more than a desultory sort of notice. It was very soon evident, after the rise of the curtain, thet the actors had taken extraordinary pains with the text. Their speeches were neither from the doggerel of the printed play, nor yet from the poetry of the romance, but were ingeniously compounded of both, with original extemporaneous variations, which had a most novel and pleasing effect indeed. We could give twenty examples of this, but one or two must suffice. In the scene where Douglas declares his intentions to leave Roderick Dhu’s dominions, in order to avert from them the vengeance of the ‘king, Roderick broke out: *-No never !—blast be ron pine, My father’s ancient crest and still my boast and banner, If from its shade in danger part 4 } 2 Pee Any whom Roderick The guards shal! start in St When my nuptial altar i And its flames shall set ablaze To scare the slumbers of king James !’ And again, where by an ingenious device, 2 number of ghostly pasteboard warriors, with a small blue cloud on the head of each, start up at the whistle of Roderick, Fitz-James exclaimed loves, irling porch, rea ; an hundred villages, ) k shall melt Whang come alt this ro ted Celt !”’ “Come one, An improvement on the original which jeannot be too much admired. In this scene also Fitz-James thought . proper to introduce a passage about the . death of Red Murdoch, which it was found necessary to repeat further on. Some ;hypercritical gentleman, near us objected ito this, but we soon silefced him with the (proverb whielt shows that a good thing will bear repetition. He was going on to reply by something beginning ‘‘too much of a good thing”—when our attention was recalled to the stage. The audience had frequent opportunities of discussing the merits of the play, while the actors, prompter and stage manager were discussing in the wings whose turn it was to go out, and once the characters voluntarily and simultaneously left the stage, in order to allow the spectators a sufficient opportunity to express their enthusiastie admiration. This is much better than for actors to stand foolishly still while long continued applause lasts, and isan example our dramatic friends would do well to follow. <A pleasing variety was occasionally introduced by the scene shifter. It was really thrilling to see a chamber flat marching solemnly along the side to meet in the centre of the stage a wood scene, and every such oecurrence was hailed with enthusiastie expressions of delight. Indeed, everything was in periect unison throughout this most striking representation of an excellent play. But the final combat was the feature of the evening. When Roderick, magnanimously throwing away his shield and battle-axe and drawing a short fencing sword from under his petticoat, squared himself for his antagonist, every heart stood still. We despair of giving any idea of the progress of the fight. Some captious individual grumbled, it > because the fire a es 2 § is true, did not fly thick enough, and expressed disapprobation when three successive euts —one up and two down—were made in empty gir instead of on eack other’s blades, but i@, were speedily silenced by indignant eries of “dry up” from all parts of the house. One freckled faced little boy, with hair of a most sanguinary hue, laughed so immoderately thronghout--apparently considering the whole thing an excellent joke—as to disgust an English gentleman near us to such an extent, that he rose in his seat and offered to “punch 7is ’ead for sixpenee.” In short, the play was entirely successful, and when at the iclose, Fitz-James, placing a white handkerchief on the fallen hero’s breast so as inot to soil his armor, set his foot upon his prostrate foe and spread his hands to heapes, the curtain went down amid plaudits that snook the house like a tempest. It would be invidious to particularize actors, when all acquitted themselves so well, but jwe cannot forbear noticing Mr. Phelps, as having greatly added to the interest of the play. It isto be repeated to-night, but we doubt whether so perfect a representation will be witnessed again. <o-—sadaplslmclaiaii ine The man who was ‘ praised up to the skies ’ has fallen down again. Fortunately, he, as our isgsane reporter informs us, ‘landed in the sea,’ and being able to swim, he has escaped injury. <>< Bae The man who minds his own business has a good, steady employment. 4

The cast was: Fitz James....+0. ..Mr. Phelps. toderick Dhu... ...W.M. Leman. Killen Douglas......-Mrs. Thoman. If our readers enjoy the following critiqne upon the performance as hugely as we did, they will be indebted to the Evening Journal for a hearty laugh : “Tt is seldom that we have an opportunity of witnessing a performance so pertect and so highly successful as was that of the “Lady of the Lake” last night, at the Metropolitan Theatre. It deserves particular attention from the lovers of the dramatic art, and especially from the public press. We are really sorry that the usual excessive length of our leader, and the very small space allowed to theatrieals in our sober columns, will not permit us to give the matter more than a desultory sort of notice. It was very soon evident, after the rise of the curtain, thet the actors had taken extraordinary pains with the text. Their speeches were neither from the doggerel of the printed play, nor yet from the poetry of the romance, but were ingeniously compounded of both, with original extemporaneous variations, which had a most novel and pleasing effect indeed. We could give twenty examples of this, but one or two must suffice. In the scene where Douglas declares his intentions to leave Roderick Dhu’s dominions, in order to avert from them the vengeance of the ‘king, Roderick broke out: *-No never !—blast be ron pine, My father’s ancient crest and still my boast and banner, If from its shade in danger part 4 } 2 Pee Any whom Roderick The guards shal! start in St When my nuptial altar i And its flames shall set ablaze To scare the slumbers of king James !’ And again, where by an ingenious device, 2 number of ghostly pasteboard warriors, with a small blue cloud on the head of each, start up at the whistle of Roderick, Fitz-James exclaimed loves, irling porch, rea ; an hundred villages, ) k shall melt Whang come alt this ro ted Celt !”’ “Come one, An improvement on the original which jeannot be too much admired. In this scene also Fitz-James thought . proper to introduce a passage about the . death of Red Murdoch, which it was found necessary to repeat further on. Some ;hypercritical gentleman, near us objected ito this, but we soon silefced him with the (proverb whielt shows that a good thing will bear repetition. He was going on to reply by something beginning ‘‘too much of a good thing”—when our attention was recalled to the stage. The audience had frequent opportunities of discussing the merits of the play, while the actors, prompter and stage manager were discussing in the wings whose turn it was to go out, and once the characters voluntarily and simultaneously left the stage, in order to allow the spectators a sufficient opportunity to express their enthusiastie admiration. This is much better than for actors to stand foolishly still while long continued applause lasts, and isan example our dramatic friends would do well to follow. <A pleasing variety was occasionally introduced by the scene shifter. It was really thrilling to see a chamber flat marching solemnly along the side to meet in the centre of the stage a wood scene, and every such oecurrence was hailed with enthusiastie expressions of delight. Indeed, everything was in periect unison throughout this most striking representation of an excellent play. But the final combat was the feature of the evening. When Roderick, magnanimously throwing away his shield and battle-axe and drawing a short fencing sword from under his petticoat, squared himself for his antagonist, every heart stood still. We despair of giving any idea of the progress of the fight. Some captious individual grumbled, it > because the fire a es 2 § is true, did not fly thick enough, and expressed disapprobation when three successive euts —one up and two down—were made in empty gir instead of on eack other’s blades, but i@, were speedily silenced by indignant eries of “dry up” from all parts of the house. One freckled faced little boy, with hair of a most sanguinary hue, laughed so immoderately thronghout--apparently considering the whole thing an excellent joke—as to disgust an English gentleman near us to such an extent, that he rose in his seat and offered to “punch 7is ’ead for sixpenee.” In short, the play was entirely successful, and when at the iclose, Fitz-James, placing a white handkerchief on the fallen hero’s breast so as inot to soil his armor, set his foot upon his prostrate foe and spread his hands to heapes, the curtain went down amid plaudits that snook the house like a tempest. It would be invidious to particularize actors, when all acquitted themselves so well, but jwe cannot forbear noticing Mr. Phelps, as having greatly added to the interest of the play. It isto be repeated to-night, but we doubt whether so perfect a representation will be witnessed again. <o-—sadaplslmclaiaii ine The man who was ‘ praised up to the skies ’ has fallen down again.
