The Ford* at L’ariooo
The Ford Dramatio Association, of
cavannab, on Monday night, under
STanspioea of L’arioso Club, pre-
0 nt e a a very-Dleasing programme to
Ztfk*- tafl waa well filled,
^ the audienoe evinced their appro
bation of the performance by hearty
The opening piece was the trial
from Shakspeare’s “Merchant
0 { Venice,” the plot of which is famil-
■„ to almost every one—how Shy-
loc k, the miser, held a bond given by
Antonio, the merchant, promising a
pound of his own flesh as Beourity for
the payment of a certain number of
ducats; how he failed to pay at the
appointed time, and the matter was
brought before the court that the
terms of the bond might be oomplied
irith; how the unchangeable laws of
Venice compelled that such should be
done; how the merchant’s fnend of
fered to pay even three times the
amount, but the miser’s greed for
gold is overcome by his thirst for hi*
victim’s blood; how the judge de
clares that the pound of flesh must
be taken by the Jew, but that if one
drop of blood be spilled his life must
pay the penalty; how the miserable
wretch, finding himself foiled, seeks
to slip away in shame, but is held by
the law for seeking the life of a citi-
Z eu, and his property is confiscated
by the government. The story, we
say> is familiar to almost every one
yet there were none that did not look
„o’with bated breath as tho perform-
auc’e progressed. The parts of the
(iuke, the young judge, Antonio and
bis friend, and that irrepressible
courtier who added so much to the
discomfiture of the Jew, were all ex
ceedingly well rendered, but we do
not hesitate in saying that Shytock
was the greatest success. The points
of that worthy’s character, hia greed
for gold, his bloodthirstiness and hate
for the “Christian dog,” were ably
portrayed, and the savage glee with
which he whetted his knife and ran
his thumb along the keen edge, as it
u, test its sharpness, was only excel
led by hia oonsternation and despair
as the inexorable laws of Venice be
gan to tighten their folds about him.
The wooden-shoe dances and other
ludicrous performances of Messrs.
Willis and Moran were good, and
were onthusiastically applauded
The farce “Wanted, a.Male Cook
was extremely ridiculous, and the
parts very well sustained, with Josh
Slocum somewhat in the lead, the
other parts being, we think, more or
less over-done.
The chores and march of the
rSKTSTSS*
prompted the hearty encore was
unanimous. ,. „
Iu conclusion, we would say that
theenterUinmentwnsve^enjoyabK
and was much appreciated. We hope
the Fords were pleased with our
place and people, and may soon visit
us again
