We have not a column of spice to spare for a proper comment on the play of last evening, though the ob ject would be a worthy one. Our people have been surfeited with en-1 tertainments this week and therefore the housa was not properly filled to ' greet this splendid Bible play. It! was a strenuous performance from j start to finish one of those strong ' plajs which holds interest at a high ' tension throughout. The leading ; parts were st'eunous and the fire of religious fervor was met with an ' equal fire of fanatical bigotry well ! carried to the tragio end. The Marias 1 of Edgar Jones was of the sort to ex- eite tne admiration of those who adore manly beauty and noble de meaoor. It was a strong part, played without a fault. The same might almost be said of Salome, the wicked iand siuuous beauty the incarnation i of love and d,evilishness well mixed, j Even the traitor Judas was a most I commendable actor, with the part of ithe most infamous villan that ever I lived ioTiistory. As John the Baptist j and as his exact opposite none but an actor of merit could present the both true to the life. But all the parts were commendable especially go the little mother of j John j but space fails, and 'tis but the passing show, though one deserv- log of the largest possible audiences j wherever it may entertain. The I church people should attend and take ! Ill X r, , y "jo" lauiuies. sermon or oioie j reading can equal such a performance ! one that sends all home with the ' thought that they bave seen some- j thing almost too good aud sacred for the oommon stage.
