There is no greater ingratitude than that of a favor- who, coddled, caressed, encouraged and fairly brought up on the bottle of applause by an ever-generous public, turns upon and at last biteth and stingeth it like an intolerable adder. The ballet that attended a Brooklyn church was only seven strong, and mingled itself with the general public just as if it proposed that the clergyman should remain the of the exercises, If 1t had occupied the twenty pews set aside for it, how it would have been stared at and condemned for its brazen-faced ness; and yet it would have been done so solely by the desire of the good clergyman himself.

Perhaps the quarrel is an advertising scheme, but the lily has this advantage—she has few words in response to the too obvious and malicious prickliness of the little thistle opposed to her, and she doesn't need the advertising that the thistle does. “ John Howson’'s Triplet, Miss Dauvray’s Woffington and Ellie Wilton’s Mrs. Vane, at the Lyceum, make a very pretty three hours of comedy altogether, to ‘say nothing of Mr. Sothern’s Vane and Mr. Whiting’s Sir Charles, The Woffington of Miss Dauvray is not espe- ally coltish; but the swift changes from laughter to tears, and back again, which the third act calls for, are very effectively done, and the dressing of the piece is in places as good as anything that used to be found at Wallack’s. Mr. Howells, who looks on Edward Harri- some respects the American Dickens, 10 be disappointed when he sees “MeNooney’s Visit,” which is as funny and faithful a reproduction of phases of New York life as any of the many that have preceded it. The visit of the distinguished gentleman men- tioned will be one of great length. Life is sad, but it will be relieved of much of its melancholy when “The Marble Heart” is called in. ahi It is frequently remarked of Nathaniel Good- win as Prince Lorenzo that he can't play, but that may be the fault of his instrument. Given a good company, a good play and and there is no reason why Helen Hastings, with the requisite study, ex- perience and expensive wardrobe, may not be a jumping success some day.
