ce successful. --Notwithstanding the unfavorable weather, and the "snowed up" condition of things generally, quite a numerous audience attended on Saturday night to witness the first representation of --The Necromancer.-- With regard to the scenery, the public anticipations were fully realized. Among the series of splendid views presented, we may specify that of the Old Westminster Bridge by moonlight, and the picture of Pandemonium, as unsurpassed by anything ever exhibited at our Theatre.--With the exception of some few annoyances which are unavoidable on the first representation of a piece involving so many and such rapid changes, the performance was highly satisfactory, and elicited hearty applause. --The music is original, and happily adapted throughout. At the close, Mr. Howe, who dramatized the story, was complimented by general call, in response to which he appeared before the curtain and expressed his acknowledgments. "The Necromancer" will be produced again to-night.

en through the inlines, and defeated the detachment at Princeton, did not exceed a fourth of that number. Instead of following him, surrounding him, crushing him, Howe withdrew all his troops from Jersey, and shut them up in New York. And there Washington kept them shut up the whole winter.--Nay, when the spring came he had but 8,000 still, and when Howe crossed the river with his host of veterans, to force his way to Philadelphia, Washington with his handful of raw recruits, manœuvred in such a masterly manner that he did not dare to attack him, and so like the King of France mentioned in the ballad, he went back to where he came from.--Nay, when he defe and paralyze twenty-four thousand British veterans, was not a great captain, then history is a cheat, and wisdom has little to do with military affairs. Neither Howe, nor his successor, Clinton, ever forgot the lessons of Trenton and Princeton. The former, even after Brandywine and Germantown, suffered Washington to shut him u

never offends. The character of Hester Grazebrook is one in which uncommon spirit and confidence are required to produce an effect; and we are sustained by many excellent judges in the opinion that it was splendidly rendered by Miss Gougenheim. In the last act, where she turns the tables upon her artful rival, and brings about a happy denouement, the audience seemed absolutely carried away with delight. Miss Ida Vernon played the part of Mrs. Montressor with a correct appreciation of its meaning, and Mr Howe is entitled to the same compliment for the manner in which he rendered that of Sir Harry Arncliffe. Indeed, the play was well presented in every respect, and we need only add, that those who were absent from the Theatre on Wednesday night, missed an entertainment of rare excellence. To-night "Miss Joey" takes a benefit, and will appeal in the drama entitled "The Doom of Deville" That she will be complimented by a through and fashionable audience, we have no doubt whatever.
