IOOLEY'S THEATRE, Bardon’s drama of * Agnes,’ which was given for the tirst thny here by the Unfon Hquare company Inst cvening, was {n many respects a surprise, In the first place, It was surprising to those who arc accustomed to lovk upon Sardou as 8 man incapable of perpetrating a medlocre vlay to find that they wero mistaken. Inthe sceond plave, it was surprising to hear—as all have heard by this timo—that Agnes Etlel patd $10,000 for it, and wnode a proft. 1t wus not a bit surprising to sco that the members of the Unfon Sqyuare company, with all their taleny sud thelr best endeavor, eeconded by the good willof tho audience, were unsble to moke tho plece come up to the expectattons of thu public. 1t is called an emottonal cotnody~lramn; but beyond the pleturo of an infatuated young wift, who easily condones thoworst utfense s hiusbund ean be gullty of, and blubliers aver a heartless deserter, une fails to percelve au element of ‘“ewotionuilsm ” In the wholy story. 1t couics nearer to furco than to comedy.

Notwithstanding thia nasertlon by Mr. Coy, It was hinted by athers that he was pegarded as s pretty slippery fellow, when viewed from n busiucss atandpoint, and the testtmony of a number of gentlemen yeater- day appearcd to substantiata the charge.
