Plone, and then expectation was on the tiptoe un- @ Mr. Booth appeared. Never io the history of @e histrionte profession was such ® brilliant re- ‘euption given to any sctor as he received. The eadhence rose on masse, while cheer upon cheer re- ‘werberated long and loud, the ladies rose and waved ‘thatr handkerchiels, gentlemen waved their hats, @md bequets and wreaths fel! around Fdwio Beet tn showers. He appeared extremely nervous Bot this flattering reception gave hin confidence, and be performed the character of Hamlet with « Gre end opirit whieh exhibited bis talents ass tra @etion. At the ond of the first act he was calied ‘afore ths curtain, and the cheering snd plaudits, ‘end bouquets were renewed, and the same occur- ved a4 the ond of every act, after which the audi- nce amused themse!ves by indulging in three @roens for the New York Hanatp, The members of the New York Lodge Free and Accepted Masons, deeded by their Master, James R. Elsey, visited Mr. Booth in his dressing-room, an elegantly ‘Tarnished room, jooking like « flower gardov, MMled s6 it Was with 90 way elegant bouquets of Sowers with whieh it was edorse!, Among the members present wore Past Master O P. Q iintard, Wm. B. Bm!th, Chas. D. Brown, Treasurer W. J. Bunce, &c, &c, The members were all iniro- @uced, and each shook bande with “ Brother Boosh,” who simply ssid: ‘Brethren, I am highly gratified at this visit; Tam proud to be @© esteemed by the brethren of New York Lodge ; and the reception I have met with thie night will never be effaced from my memory." The brethren then took ther leave, eed during the intermission of the subse. quent acts, several distinguished gent emen ealled on Mr. Booth and offeret their congratuls- tions, A large force of police, under Captain Ceftrey, of the 15th precinct, with Bergeant Hon- sien, Policemen were also present in citizens dress, under Captain Brackett, of the 26th precinct. At the close of the fif.h act Mr. Booth was twice called before the curtain and greeted with the seme enthusiasm an on his first appearance. He was urged to make @ specch, but, with exceeding modesty and good taste, only bowed bie acknowledgements and retired. As no speech could be obtained from Mr. Booth, some person in the audience again raisod the cry which bed been heard and answered sevoral times during the evening, and loud above the din, some one shouted ‘Three groans for the New York Heuaty |" Thereupon, the ugliest kind of groans were heartily given, and not only three, but ihroe times three" and one groan more were given with ® vim, which equalled, and almost surpassed in intensity, the cheers which greeted the young sctor « few momenis before. Mr. Booth's own sensations on thie occasion can be best undersiood by bis own description as given mabsequently toe friend. ‘It ts a complete dream to me, For the last three days I ecarcely weve the matier @ thought, and up to the lest moment I felt no sensation whatever. But es soon es the scene opene!, my whole frame wae affected from head to font, and until I heard that eplendid reception I scar ely recoynized my position, I need not aay how I felt, Any man may imagine my feelings if be will but piace himerl! in my position for one Moment. Iam certain!y pleased, and I cannot be ab enwine.* Mr. Booth will appear as “‘EHamlet'* again this evening, and every evening til! further notice.

Coroner Avery held an inquest npon the bodies last evening, when the following facta were elicited : About half-past 8 o'elock Mr to co some twarkeling bear by niaving in the kitcben in Van Creef went ont dlettthe children rear part of the houre; the door lead to the all wo left partially n, and the fire im the stove had fone out, She absent not to exceed twenty minutes, and on her return, upon reaching the upper part of the house in whieh she lived, she found ihe back room door locked and smoke entering the hall window, which w ised. She succerded in buret- ing open the door, and finaing the room densely filled with smnoke, called her children, but receiving no anewer, ran into the street and gare the alarm, when Mr, Hexamer and Timothy Foley arrived at the scene, who, stoop'ng clore to the Moor, entered the room, and finally found the children lying dead at the further part, It appears that the flames were principally in the bedroom, where there were some watches in the washetand drawer, The oldest girl was burned about the chest, loge and one hand, but her garments were not scorched, and the youngest one had a sight burn upon one cheek.
