This afternoon there is to be given at the Hollis Street Theatre a three act Comic Opera written by Mr. Cory, a Boston amateur. This opera is said to have made a hit when given previously some years ago.

The article is a critical examination in its several aspects of the point decided in this noted English case, namely that the mere existence of a contract imposes upon all who know of its existence, a duty to forbear form, doing any act maliciously, for the purpose of procuring a breach of the contract.
