Her portrayal of the different passions pas-sions was most natural, and she strictly strict-ly followed Shakcspear'a advice iir holding "the mirror up to nature." Mr. Darrcll's part in the piece gave great satisfaction. Miss Dcnin, as the Countess, was admirable, and, in the bcono whoro Rudiga charges her with not being the moihev of Francises, Fran-cises, the scene was enacted with all tho force and vigor which- only gre:it actresses can command.
