Jarrett and Palmer— were there. It was the first night of # new American play by the author of the “Octoroon” and “Rip Van Winkle,” and the admirers of Dion Boucicault, on the stage and in the press, pressed forward to see if the veteran dramatist had scored another sensation success, John McCullough also was to be tested in a new and original part. It ig not strange, then, that the occasion served to tring together a large and brilliant audience. Belore entering into a dis- cussion of the artistic or literary merits of the new play, let us acknowledge with pleasure that it is a clear, honest and wholesome work, both in subject and treatment. We feel that we are breathing the sweet, pure air of a lofty position, a refresh- img atmosphere in which we {cel @ healthful in- fluence. The passions are grand, robust and masculine, The tenderness is (hat of amiaputty, In poetic purity “Belle Lamar” can rank beside the “Colleen Bawn.”” The American character is portrayed in life size and full of that rough vigor and blunt diction that seems at a bound to reach sublimity by the very force of its prose. On the rising of the curtain we found ourselves on the banks of the Blackadder, a dark, densely wooded river in the Shenandoah Valley. Beyond, and along the distant bank, glimmer the watch- fires of the Confederate force under Stonewall Jackson. A solitary Irish recruit, in the national uniform, is discovered on the stage, pacing slowly on bis outpost duty. He sings to himself, “Why did I teave the county Clare to sail across the sea?” The last notes have scarcely died away whon the voice of the rebel sentinel on the urther shore of the river is heard singing to himself, “Maryland, my Maryland.” The effect of these effusions of the heart to the distant home is a masterly touch of the dramatist; it starts the ac- tion of the piece and strikes tne keynote ot its sentiment with as much poctic feeling as in- genuity. The subject may be briefly told. Mars- ton Pike, an officer commanding an advanced post of the national army under General Banks, is stationed at Mount Lamar, a Virginian mansion, from which the Lamar family have fed at the ap- proach of war, Young Isabel Lamar isin Jack- son’s camp, and has not only attracted the love of Marston, who meets her by stealth at night, but she manage: these interviews to extract many pieces of Valuadie news, for she ts an active and daring Confederate spy. She has promised to be his wife when the war is over, and she has consented to accept a pass for herself and attendant to cross the Northern lines on her way to Washington. She hears at the same time important despatcnes are expected irom General Mcvoweil, Instead of eeeking saiety she uses the toenabie a rebel officer under her guidance aylay the bearer of aespatches and rob him of re detected in the deed; the girl e noapes with the papers, but is hunted down in tne Meanwhile Colonel Philip Bligh arrives witn his cavalry to supersede Marston in his com- mand. Bligh 18a stern, active and noble soldier, the admiration and terror of both the Vontederate and Union troops. He is the dearest iriend and schoolfeliow of Marston. While exchanging reminis- cences over the mess tavle the news arrives that two rebel spies have been taken red-handed, one of them a woman, Bligh resolves to try them by court martial. He dictates to Marston a letter to headquarters, urging on the General the necessity of executing both these spies, and thus put a stop to an system of jemale espionage, pointing out how many of these vipers are basking on the Dational hearth at Washington, Marston littte thinks that his own love is the wo- man whose death warrant he is writing. The let- ter is deapatched; and then the pass supposed to be iorged, that enabled these spies to cross the lines, is produced. The young officer recognizes his Own bandwriting and confesses to Bligh the truth, pleading his love in mitigation of his crime. To aul eloquence Bligh replies by telling him hisown secret history; how he had married a young and lovely Southern girl, and be‘ore a year had passed the war broke Out. Failing to induce nim to desert his flag, she tore herself from his arms and fled to muy in the South. The; ovtained a divorce for her, and she left his life desolate and in ruins. Disdaining to bear his name, that he had rendered celebrated in the Norsh, she resumed her own, Isabel Lamar. Marston staggered as if Biigh had struck him, and at the sawe moment the soldiers hunting a wild and tattered figure with hue and cry belore them into the room, Belle stands in the presence of her husband and ber lover. In the second act Bligh has received an answer to his ietter, instructing him to try the woman and apply the extreme pray Bed her case. During the court martial young Marston Pike proclaims nimse!l her accomplice, and reveals the fact wnich was unknown generally that the court is ae their president's divorced wile. Philip, unabdie to bear the torture of his position, gives Belle a safe conduct to headquarters. She uses it to enabie Marston to escape. She remains, but is over- wheimed to discover that she has involved Philip in the charge of conniving at the traitor’s evasion. In the third act Bligh is driven into an intrenched position in the mountains, where he holds Stone- wail Jackson at bay while awaiting the arrival of the Northern armies hastening to his relief. In a few hours the Confederate artillery will be ina —— to sweep his little troop from the earth. le refases an offer to surrender, His orders are to hold that spot, called the Whitestown Gap, and with the tenacity of a batldog ne clings to it. The supreme moment arrives. single horseman is seen coming over @ distant bridge. It is Marston Pike, who has used his liberty to reach the Union lines and bring up the lagging force. The music of the distant regiments is heard, and the blue columas are seen emerging from the woods, cross- ing the bridge, deploying into line and belching their fire as the artillery appear and begin to play ou the 1 postion. ’ Meanwhile, when death seemed inevitable, the repenting wife has thrown herseif at Bligh’s feet and coniessed the enduring love she has never ceased to feel for him, impioring hia forgiveness. Philip, Whose honest nature hus never sought to conceal its love for the fugitive, has taken her to his breast, Neither of them dreain they will owe their deliverance to the hand of Marston, who arrives witn the relieving force. puch ts the outiine of the plot apon which Mr. Roucicault has succeeded in Laem | a drama, re- markabie for its vigorous action and deep pathos, t any Mg of: the Rey Loa that, tho nt now, must vibrate as the scenes aod of the civil strife that has aca away are recalied by the drama*ist.

Sometimes it is wise and sometimes it ts other- wise for the manager of a theatre to evoke occur- rences in real life and therefrom fashion mimic representations. Occasionally success attends such ventures, but in most instances the reverse is the case, and what might have been intended as @ true picture only resulis in a caricature or burlesque of the real incidents of the life drama essayed to be portrayed.

Then came the Platonic love of the wife for the pastor—exhibits of their inter- views, their lonely walks (where the audieuce can lsten to what may have been said by Mrs. Tilton to her pastor in the most rapturous moments of her religious adoration) ; then the sudden appear- ance of the jealous husband upon the scene aad a household row ensuing, unequalled even by the description of the Tilton domestic unpleasanness alleged by Miss Susan B. Anthony to have occur- red between Mr. and Mrs. Tilton at their own home. The tendency of the ieeling among the audience last night was that if Mrs. Tilton took the character and career of Catherme Gaunt a9 a@ type of any sinfulness she had com- mitted with the Rev. Mr. Beecher she was, and is, & Woman of the purest heart and waitest soul. The present version of the play 13 an adaptation from the novel by Harry Watkins, te comedian.

Olympte Theatre. Tnis popular theatre and family resort opened last night, for the fall and winter season, to an overflowing house. During the summer recess the theatre has been thoroughly renovated and hand- somely decorated, and presents a fresh and cneer- ing appearance to the audience. Notwithstanding the intense heat of yesterday, people were not de- terred irom visiting the Olympic, for when the curtain went up on the performance the old house so familiar to New Yorkers was crowded from pit to dome with as entnusiastic an audieuce as ever gathered inside the walls ofa theatre. Last night's opening may be considered more of a prologue to the regular opening, which takes place two weeks hence, than the formal commencement of the fall and winter season, and as in,ail prologues the nature of the play is foreshadowed so may tne character of the entertainments which are to form the next season’s programmes at this house be judged from what was presented tast nignt and will continue for the next two weeks to come. ‘lhe aim of the management at this house, as an- nounced, 1s to make it the ‘leading specialty and vaudeville theatre of New York,” and if last evening's entertainment is to be taken us an iMdication of iuture achievements, tue promise will be fulfiled. Tony Pastor’s star troupe ot va- riety, Ethtopian, Dutch, Irish and acrobatic artists, with E. D. Davies, the ventriloquist, and Jennie Benson, the champion clog dancer, com- posed @ programme in which most oi the best of the variety talent of the country appeared. The night’s performance opened with tue Ethiopian specialty of “The Actor’s+Studio,” and aithoagh by nO means a new sketch it was spirit- edly rendered by the artists to whom were us- signed the characters. Kitty Brooks, in her serio- comic songs, and the Garnella Brothers, in their parlor gymnastic exercises, followed. By the way, those Garneila boys are exceedingly clever, the posaees one, almost a cluld, particularly so. Tony itor, in three of his most popular song: with a vim which made the house ring, anu for an encore he gave @ song iliustrated with dissoiving pictures ol scenes of American and European his- tory. Etla Wesner, in ber character representa- tons of the young men of the day, met wish de- servedly enthusiastic applause ior the manner in which she sung and played the characters she por- trayed, and «i. D, Davies, the ventriloquist, witn bis puppets, “fom and Joe,” was as irresistibly tun Bavy Benson, a little clita of about 8, and the Fielding, a clever pair of Hi- jians, also conduced to make tne merriment Ol a night’s programme saficiently entertaining and attractive to usher in the season ot ‘74 at the Olympic Theatre, as ever. The Theatre Comique Opening. Thoroughly renovated, repainted and redeco- rated, the fheatre Comiqae was opened last even- ing by Josh Hart tor the fourth season under very flattering prospects, Under the present manage- ment, that aims at catering to ail tastes, this establishment has always been popular with downtown resiients, and the people on tie Long Island and Jersey shores especially, owing to its proximity to the Grand street cars; but, judg- ing from the array of talent presented last even ing, this season 1s likely to win lor the manage- ll greater laurels. The company has been completely reorganized, with new material and new features introduced that cannot fail of meet- ing the approval of the patrons. Among the new members are Vogtiill and Cooper and Luke Schvol- crait, delineators of negro character; Mile. Zet- tella and Miss Nuily Pieris, vocalists; the breban Swiss Bell Ringers, consisting of five persons; Misa Kate O'Connor, W. Harcourt, H. G. Williams, William Carter, J. D. Daley, D, B. Conroy, and the well known | loiperetod the Wilson Brothers. The mme last evening was a varied one, con- sisting chiedy of negro burlesque, serio-comic songs, Musical Givertissement and mirth-provoking diaiogue, Charies White and J. A. Grover, in the negro sketch, “A Stupid Servant,” calied out loud applause, The negro songs and dances of Cogill and Cooper were overdone, and bore but little re- sembiauce to plantation life; tne gymnastic feats of the Wilson Brothers, many of which were en- tirely original, were marvels to behold; the vocal- wation of Miss Pieris was of a superior order, aud calied forth trequent applause; the Irish ecceu- tricities of Conroy and Daley were true to lite, while Billy Green’s and Luke Schooicrait’s negro comicalities provoked oproarious laughter from @ crowded house, With a very lew exceptions the entire company acquitted themselves admirably, and if last ‘nt be a fair test of what fs to ollow nightly throughout the season tne Comiqae ts cer- tain to retain its old popularity with those who preter variety entertainments to comedy, tragedy or drama, GERMAN SINGING SOOLETIES' FESTIVAL, Otto Cottage Garden, Hoboken, was brilliantly Muminated last evening when the Lyra Saenger- vereim, of Hoboken, held their grand annual festival.
