Byron , who has undoubtedly rcond another success . The comedy is more noticeable for ils smartness of dialogue and rapid succession of jokes Ulan any remarkably strong situations . Space will not permit of a i ! escriplioi > of the
plot . Suffice il to say that there is a young lady , accomplished , beautiful , and wealthy , wilh three admirers , each endeavouring to supplant the other in her affections . Miss Amy Iios . ik- is ( lie heroine , and sustains * her character with great care and ability . Messrs . Wilson Barrett , G . W . Anson , an-. l Coghlan arc the three lovers , the most amusing of the lliree being Giil-l-ins ( Mr . Anson ) . Mr .
Wilson Barrett ' s representation of a languid young aristocrat , who , with but little brains and no money , hopes to secure the lady on the scoic of ancestry , is nearly perfect , and his performance is marked by -va exhibition of case and coolness truly nfreshing . Mr . Coghlan as a young
farmer gives a pleasant picture of an upri ght , manly fellow , who scorns the idea e > f marrying a girl richer than himself . VvV doubt not but that " Courtship" will have a long and a merry run . The amusing comedy , "A Clerical Error , " commences the evening ' s amusement and is will woitli seeing .
