I know Of no pleasanter evening's amusement than is afforded by either witnessing, or assisting in, the perform ance of a sparkling one-act comedy, played by some six or seven intelligent ladies and gentlemen, who, if they have not professional experience, certainly understand and can appreciate the dialogue, and are utterly free from all those absurd professional conventionalities, redolent of anything but actual life, which unhappily are but too often met with on the public stage.
