For Miss Terry is charming, even thongh she amuses us with her little comedy accentsand slides which occasionally peep out of her otherwise semi-veiled emotional voice, when she repeats her pathetic lines, But were we oO inclined to criticise this harmonic English duet, our pe spicnons det genuine ble criticism on certain con- Is would be over Imiration for the exquisite pictures ways present, pictures of three —color, form and motion—well the study of amateur and artist. hese poetic object lessons alone would en- title the Irving-Terry company to a distin- ed position in arti dramatic work, the critics award it, and ‘Tur JupGe doth give it.” BARRE ROTCHKOFF, The obnoxious gallery of ticket speculators is outrivalled by the persistency of all fain- would-be ‘* stars” to portray the fall, the life and death, of poor Camille. ‘a de Rotchkoff (Baroness) recently aired her ambition—which we understand was of the superlative-positive degree—in this direc- tion.

Many habitues have felt bound, for Consistency’s jeweled suke, to be pleased; for they have lauded, these man years, the merits of Wallack’s incomparat production of Diplomacy.” And itis quite easy to be loyal to past impr ns whe present convictions verify them, The cast Is an unusually strong one; each person seems related to the part he plays—as, in truth, some of them have been for Mr. Wallack is the only man in New York who has the honor of being the star in his own stock company. ‘Tearle’s off-hand manner and easy grace are well adapted for the character lanced by our | himself with every strect, alley, park, ani and | | Lady Henry Fairfar was well. re of Captain Beauclerc.
