The mighty do joyed a con- siderably longer lease of life than is usu- ally vouchsafed to creations of alike superficiality of construction. It is the oftspring of one Wolte, of Boston, and fostered by Mr. and Mrs. Florence. It has held its own through twelve of theatrical uncertainty, time only serving to tighten its grip on the popular fuvor Outside of its lack of plot the play is clever enough as a satire on well known types of American eccentricities of the vulgar sort. The two leading characters are drawn with boldness and_ strength and fit the principals to perfection. We have all encountered such types and re- cognize their likeness with a hope their counterfeit represen- ves muay rende a lession to the originals that will tend to diminish their number in society.

Mrs. Florence is an actress of more method and polish than a easual observer is capable of appreciating te the fullest extent. Her voice is identical with he self, mezzo in piteh, and full of pleasing inflections that convey to the utmost the significance of her lines. Her gestures arc less demonstrative than expre: and her action while never dragging, deliberate, and as nstural as tnou(Vh the result of 'a spontancous impulse. As Mrs. General Gillflory she was _convuls- ing with her amusing mannerisms and confusing smattering of art and French, and vague iden of geography.
