One does not expect to find time for much hearty laughter during the course of this emotional play, unless it bo from the sayings and doings of the kind but somewhat erratic “Miss Cornoy,” yet the innovations introduced last night gave everyone especially the fair sex—a chance of recovering from the effects of witnessing Lady Isabel’s sad plight. The play was well staged, and every actor scored, especially Aliss Frances Grey, who took the dual role of Lady Isabel and Madame Vino. HIS MAJESTY’S THEATRE.
