"NOBODY'S CHILD."

This interesting and partly sensational drama was repeated last evening at the Prince of Wales Theatre before a select and appreciative audience, and met with a generous reception. Having referred to this lively drama so recently we need not on the present occasion pause (.or attempt to enumerate its merits now, but simply state that its success was quite equal to that of the previous evening each performer having done his best to render " Nobody's Child" in a pleasing and acceptable light. We call special attention to the announcement of this evening, which will be the much admired play of the "Poor Strollers," which gave so much satisfaction on its previous representation at this theatre some two or three months ago. The character of Lady Camilla will be impersonated by Miss Clara Stephenson, and Maurice Warner by Mr. Collier. A great treat may therefore be anticipated this evening. We would further call attention to the complimentary benefit to Mr. De Lias, to-morrow evening when a magnificent programme will be presented to the public, and in every point worthy of acceptance. Ihe drama will consist of an entirely new version of "Uncle Tom's Cabin," illustrative of the principal scenes depicted in that once famous anti-slavery novel. The scenes, painted expressly by Mr. Williams, will exhibit views of the flight across the ice, the death of Evangeline and incidents in the life of the immortal Topsy, who " spected she grow'd." The whole to conclude with the Irish comedy of "Barney the Baron." The bill,of fare
