THEATRE ROYAL.
Mrs. Scott-Siddons made her second appearance at the Theatre Boyal last night. She played Rosalind in “As You Like It.” She straggled against difficulties, caused by Wretched support on the part of the stock company. There was a large attendance, and it was evident that her Rosalind is as perfect on-impersonation as her Juliet. Mr. Steele and Mrs. Stoneham, who played Jacques and Audray respectively, were of course excellent in both parts. For the rest it might be fairly ■aid that chaos had come again. They were beyond criticism. An excellent orchestra, under the efficient direction of Mr. Isherwdod, had to play through a long wait before the curtain rose on the first act, and received in consequence the gratuitous abuse of the pit. To-night Mrs.. Scott-Siddons appears in “Romeo and Juliet,” in which she will not bhve to contend against such obstacles as she met'with last night"
