...play was brought out at this theatre last week entitled "The New Magdalen." It is a dramatization by Wilkie Collins of his novel bearing the same name, but differs essentially from the novel in its conclusion, and was written expressly for Miss Leclercq. The plot is interesting and exciting throughout, although we must confess it weakens perceptibly during the long speeches, moral and sentimental, of the unclerical parson Vivian Gray. The character of Mercy Merrick gives Miss Leclercq an opportunity to display her magnificent dramatic powers. Her story is that of a young woman making every effort against the prejudices...

The other important character in the play is that of the self-sacrificing Camille, a part well suited to Miss Clarke, who certainly acted never better or looked more beautiful. Mr. Hardenbergh and Mr. McClannin were both acceptable in their respective parts. If Mr. Conway would stop shaking his leg and running his hand through those flowing locks, he would greatly relieve the Museum audiences...
Boston Theatre.The return of Miss Maggie Mitchell, one of Boston's favorites, has been received with crowded and enthusiastic houses. The play last week was "Jane Eyre," a play which gives full scope to Miss Mitchell's superior abilities as an actress. Mr. Shewell, another old Boston favorite, furnished a fine support as Lord Rochester, while the rest of the cast was very creditable. Taken as a whole, it was one of the finest pieces of acting we have ever seen at this theatre, and forms a vivid but not unpleasing contrast to the ghastly and sanguinary drama which...
