at least, he has not dep'arted_ficim 'his usual habit,

in addition to his denial, he makes several
terms. That I may do no injustic to Mr. Macready
I republish his card:
"TO THE PUBLIC.. OF PIiILADELPHIA
"In a card Rulished in the Public Ledger and
other morning papira of this day, blr.Furrest hav
ing avowed himself the author of the statements,
which Mr. Macready has . 'solemnly pledged his
honor to be without the least foundation.
"Mr Macready cannot be wanting in self res•
pect so far as to bandy wards upon this subject,

festly-calculated to prejudice Mr. Macready in the .

In this card we have some sweeping denials
from Mr. Macready, and three allegatiois at least.
Let us examine' the allegations and answer them.

veracity hitherto unquestioned.

the 22nd of Fehruary 1845, the following article.
'Our old acquaintance, Mr. Forrest, the Amer
can tragedian, has played Othello at the Princess's
Theatre during the past week, and, it would seem
from the accounts (we did not see the tragedy).
with entire abatement of that 'sound and fury'
which distinguished his performance nine years
ago. 'An you should do it, too ten-ibly: says that
excellent dramatic critic, Peter Quince, 'you would

the Timer, Coo terrible has Subsided into the
