Davenport, last evening, drew otit the largest house which ha* yet assembled with in tbe walls of the Theatre. The beautiful Sbakspearean play of Romeo and Juliet was rendered very acceptably, although not with out obvious drawbacks. Mr. Davenport’s “ Romeo” was a thoroughly good and schol arly performance, as, indeed, are all that gentleman's characters. The severe illness under which Miss LaFond labored last even ing was painfully evident, and her courage ous and willing efforts were* under the cir dumstances, almost as gratliylng to her friends as unbounded sucoess would have been. Mr. Weir euitalned the. character of Mer «trtio very finely. Mrs. Berrell as the “sur«c,” and Mr. Bimp9on aa “Friar Lau rewx" were excellent, and through the earn ««t »eppert of every one in the cast, the piece went off smoothly and succeesfully.— At the close of the performance, in response to the persistent demands of the enthusiastic audience, Mr. D wenport appeared before the curtiiin and made the following brief, but ap propriate and fei ling, speech : x>iu«a>dG sTv-tu bn: Permit me briefly but .ts oci-tely, to tender you my sincere thanks tor this onexpncted end most flatter ing evidence ot your kindness and good feel lng lam not vain enough to imagine that this demonstration baa been earned by my professional merit, but attribute it to your cordial and generous inclinations. Therefore the greater the kindness upon your part, the greater the obligation upon mine. I cheerfully avail myself’ of ‘ : this opportunity to thank you for the leniency, and considerate indulgence yon have shown us all during our brief stay amongst you. You are aware that our facili ties are not the greatest for the strictly pro per production ot plays ; still we have all done our best, and although the lisk wo ran upon our. adventure has not proved as pe cuniarly successful as would be desired, we at least have the satisfaction of feeling that our eflorts to entertain you have elicited your desire and willingness to sustain us. lube naliof the company and the management, I thank you, and trust that under more pro- ■ pitinus circumstances, and that wherever our variable lots in life may ca»t us, we shall be mutually pleased with oar meeting. I should be lacking in gratitude did 1 not also tender tvhe ? are most heartily due ---to the Press of this city, which has in the handsomest manner lent its * powerful in fluence in our behalf, and which has been signally kind and complimentary to myself Again ladies and gentlemen, let me thank 1 ,y°a. and wish you all as much happiness «a you have conferred upon me.” PP M The excellent evening’s entertainment .Wound up with Mr. Herndon’s inimitable “Viltikins and his Dinah,” which was encor ed with a perfect storm of applause—-and a performance upon the Tight Rope by Mr. O'Neill, a soldier from the 12th Maine Regt. Mr. O’Neill acquitted JUlmgelf very creditably despite the disadvantages under which he Übored iron the ibckrelag of the “guys.” , J, WILKRS BOOTH. John Wilkes Booth—the infamous— was : born on “the Farm,” Dear Baltimore, Md., I in 1838 —and is consequently but twenty ! seven years old. He made his first stage ap pearance in 1855, as Richmond, in Bichard 111, at the St. Charles theatre in Baltimore, and in the tall ot 1857, appeared under the name of Wilkes at the Arch street theatre in Philadelphia, where be played stock pam during the entire season. The name of Wilkes was given him by his father in honor of an old Baltimore friend, Jim Wilkea, a fuccrss'.ul merchant and great wit. Young 3 oihnext became a member of the Rich mond, Va., theatre, improved rapidly in his profession, and became a great favorite there During the season of 1880 and ’GI we find him engaged still further South, playing ciiUfiy at Montgomery and Columbus, Ga Prohftb.y not fancying c usjripfioadnto the S uthern army, however much he favored the cause, he t scaped North, and in 1861 and '62 played ia St. Louis, Louisville aud other Western cities. It was during the season following, %e believe, that be first appeared in Cincinnati, at Wood’s theatre, and led the impression, that though rather an unequal actor as might be expected of one of his lim ited exnerienco, be gave unmistakable evi dence of genuine dramatic talent. He had, added to his uative genius, the advantage of a voice musically full and rich, a face almost classic in outline, features highly intellectual a piercing black eye, capable o“f expressing the fiercest and the tenderest paslbn and emotion, and a commanding figure and im pressive stage address. Iu his transitions from the quiet and reflective passages of a part to fierce and violent outbreaks of pas sion. his sudden and impetuous manner bad in it something of that electrical force and power wbieh made the elder Booth so cele brated, and called up afresh to the memory of men of the last generation the presence', voice and manner of his father. Convivial in his habits, sprightly aud genial in conver sation, John Wilkes made many acquain tances and friends among the young of bis own age in the city— au acquaintance that was renewed during two subsequent engage ments. Our recollection of Booth is somewhat in distinct; but we remember his features in repose had rather a sombre and melancholy cast; yet, under agreeable influences or emoiions the expression was very animated and glowing. His hair, jet black and glossy, curled sligntly, and set off in fine relief a high, intellectual forehead, and a face full of intelligence. Both chin aud nose were re markably prominent, and the firm set lips and lines about the mouth indicated firmness of will, decision and resolution. He was scrupulously neat in his dress, and selected bis habit with rare perception of what was becoming to his figure and complexion. He would pass anywhere for a neatly, and not overly, dressed man of fashion. Os hia political views very little was known. He kept a still tongue on the sub ject, so far as we have heard. Being of Southern birth and education, it was pre sumed his sympathies tended in that direc tion ; but he exhibited no particular warmth or zeal for the rebellion, and nothing to indi cate the remotest desire to farther the cause by so much as giving It pecuniary aid, much less personal assistance. It is reported by a gentleman who heard the conversation, that during his engagement in Louisville' in 1862, Booth fell Info a controversy with the treas urer of the theater—a rabid secessionist while standing one morning in the box office He remaiked In effect ,thathe was a Southern maq, and liked the people of the South, who had been kind to hint, but he could not, for all that, admit that they-had any right or oc casion to secede • that they had it all their own way in. Congress, and that if they in sisted on fighting they should have taken the American flag aud fought under that. There is another story to the effect that Booth, while playing an engagement in Cleveland a year or more ago, asserted in a public bar room that tho than who would kill Abraham Lincoln would.'gain a more enviable notorie ty than Washington himself. It is of course impossible, to sav wbetbat these reported sayings are apocryphal of not. •• The last appearance of Booth on the stage (except at one oi two benefits in Washington Was {it the Winter Garden,*, New York, and In conjunction with his brothers, Edwin and Junius Brutus, 1n the play Os Julius Cresar, for the benefit of the Shakespeare Monument Fund. . He was, we believe, to have played with tbefn again at the same theatre on the 22d of this month for the benefit of the same fund. The play selected was Romeo and Juliet, the cast of the Booths being—John Wilkes as Romeo, Edwin as Mercutio, and Junius as Frinr Lawrence. As we have said he has played no engagement the present season. He left the stage to engage in oil speculations, in which he was quite fortunate having netted within six mouths between $60,000 and $75.,0uQ. had he any inten tion ofresunr.ng the stage, and declined all managerial applications— petroleum, as he wrote, being mote profitab e than the pro fession. It is difficult to understand what motives could have prompted Booth to the commis sion of the great crime ot' which he stauds accused. There afeemvto be no doubt that it was along cherished design, and that it was to have been executed at lea»t a month and ten days before It occurred. Had it then happened the nation would not have been so profoundly surprised. Richmond was then u possession of the rebels, defended by a large and well appointed army, under a con summate general. He who could lend himself to so dark and damnable an enterprise could have at least pleaded that the result of the confusion and excitement produced by the removal of the fountain head of executive authority would be tkvorable tb the Confederate cause, and arouse the South from its desponding leth argy. But he has not evetdAhis poor excuse to offer. The crime was committed at a time when life loss of no one, or a dozen men could, in so much as a hair, affect the result; when, indeed, all being-given up as lost to the rebellion, the insurgents were themselves looking to peace, and placing their trust in the clemency and large hearted magnanimity of the Executive for terms as little humiliat ing and penal in their character as it was within his power to grant. At tbs moment the assassin’s top certain bullet sped on its fatal mission there was no man in authority to whom the insurgent leaders and their fol lowers could loo* with more confidence in th«r hour of need. It would, indeed, be. very fortunate for them if it could be proven that this' infamous deed was the ireak of two or three crazy fanatics, 1 themselves, without instigation f^ JD “ the robel authorities, and was executed I notoriety, no mat *L*J"** meaM. But such, we anticipate, I *»* P™Te to be the case The madams of the double assassination, the preparation to escape; everything, in fact, connected with it, indicate deliberate preparation,secre tivenesF, caution, and probably the contem plat ion of a more bloody purpose than tbe death of two members of the administration. As it stands, history foils to present u» an in stance of assassination mure dastardly, more i cowardly, more revolting in all its details, [.than that which has filled the land with mourning, and all hearts with the very gall and wormwood of bitterness. There will be no rest for the authors of this crime. The very a:r will babble of them, aud the sea cast them upon the shore. They may hide in the mountains, but justice will track them there. The wilderness can not conceal theta, nor the uttermost parts of the earth secrete them from that retribution which will terribly overtake and consume them. And in the future no names will be more abhorr.ed, ex ecrated and hated than those of the assassins of the President and his Prime Minister. dirkctoky. .Commandant of th« Post and District—Brevet Major General C Grover; office corner South Broad and 801 l streets: residence corner Bull and Gaston streets.
