"^The Melbourne Argus " says : — " Mrs Lewis' acting in 'Jane Shore' was the most powerful and realistic since the days of Ristori." The " Vagabond " has vividly described this wonderful piece of acting as follows : — " The excitement amongst the audience during the last scene was intense. The house was dumb with sympathy ; ladies in the dress-circle wept bitterly, and unwonted tears came to my own eyes. It was the triumph of art, and everyone must have loft the Theatre with hearts filled with human charity ; for the erring and unfortunate Mrs Lewis as Jane Shore preached to all a loving sermon which they will not easily forget. I, for one, thank her." To conclude with the Charming Comedietta, WHO'S TO WIN HIM. I Prices ef Admission : — Dress Circle and Orchestra Stalls, 4s; Stalls, 2s 6d; Pit, Is. Box Plan at Lennox's.

Sib, — About six months ago I had a fall from my horse, got coue'ission of the brain, and very seriously injured my neck. 1 used various means to relieve the pain, to enable in c to turn my head ; but after some five months' persevering, I gat but a very little better. Having read of the extraordinary powers of Mr Milner Stephen (although I admit I was very sceptical as to his being able to relieve), I went, accompanied, by a friend, to his house on the 26th November, and cau positively assert, however strange it may appear, that I left the house comparatively well. I also had continuous pain in my heid, wbich left me in a most marvellous manner. Whatever may be the cause of the improvement I am not in a position to affirm ; whether it be some marvellens power possessed by Mr Stephen, or any great amount of faith on my part, which I greatly doubt, I know not; neither do I care, so long as I am so much relieved. — I am etc., Charles H. J. Hovel, Surgeon, Coromandel, 27 Dec, 188-1. P.S. — I had bettor add the name of the friend who accompanied me— Mr John McFarlane, now staying at Luks's Victoria Hotel, McFarlane, as well as myself, was surprised at the way in which the care was effected — one hand placed on my head, the other on my neckless than a minute. — C.H.
