Ward and Miss Grace Palotta in themselves almost sufficed to keep the audience in a continuous roar of laughter,', and the art of Miss Rose Musgrove and}Miss Celia Ghiloni in. the many farcical scenes of misunderstanding materially as 4 sisted them. This excellent farce will be repeated to-night, and on Monday and Tues-, ■ day evenings, and the last four nights of the j season will be devoted to two popular re-, vivals.' On' Wednesday and Thursday "Mr M Hopkinson "will be staged, and on the lan* two nights of the season The Man Fromf > Mexico."
