On the Stoning otpeeeeies week, the President of the republic was returning from Vincennes io his carriage, having with hin: Edgar Ney and Generals Hautpoul and Lahitte, and being attended by an escort of soldiers.

In the- first scene the populution of St. Dominge was exhi- bited, collected on the banks of the sea, apon whose blue eurfsce wes reflected the brilliant light of the sun; the black Marseillaise was sung with enthu-- siasm, and, throughout the piece, the aid of beau- tiful scenery and of well managed machinery gave to the striking incidents and ener; poetry an effect which quite won the adrairation of the audi- ence. e acting of Frederick Lemaitre assisted the poet, and the whole was received with enthu- 8i applause When the curiain fell, the poet was loudly called for, but he had left the house, The audience cong a refrain upon the favorite tuae of Lampion, which was go universally sung during the days of the revolution, making us ‘of the ni of Lomartine instead of Lampion’s.
