The Celebrated English Actress. Miss Ellen Terry, the principal coadju- *0* Of Mr. Henry Irving, and who accom- panies him in his American tour, is one of the moBt celebrated and successful ac- on the British stage. She was born in 1848, ami made her first a$f>«arance when a child as MamUius in \The Winter's Tale\ at the Princess' Theatre, London. It was during the lat- tor days of Mr. Kean's management of that house, and the public as well as the •ritics of the press were amazed at her precocity. Soon after she essayed the rolb Of Arthur in the revival of \King John\ at the same theatre with equal success. Her professional ilebttlt was made in March 1863, ait the Haymarket Theatre, London, when she played 'the part of Gertrude in \The Little Treasurer\ with Mr. Sothern Ui Lord Maydmbush. Great vivacity and a were especially noticeable jta this part. Her next notable appear- ance was at the new Queen's Theatre in October, 1867, when she played Hose de Baaurepcure in Charles Reade's \Double Marriage.\ She then refrained from any professional effort until 1874, when the aotreBS reappeared in Charles \Wandering Heir.\ She received a most hearty welcome to the boards and the critics noted great improvement in her acting. Although her efforts had all been eminently successful, the first artjstic tri- «mph of Ellen Terry was made shortly after her re-appearance in 1874, at the of Wales's Theatre, as Portia in \The Merchant of tmU&\ Immediately after Bhe sustained herself at the height to which she had risen in Portia as JPmtttte in \The Lady of Lyons.\ The play goers Vere taken by'storm and the press of Lon- doniienled the advent of a new genius, la the language of the Athenaeum these ««orta set the seal on her growing reputa- tion and made it evident that an actress of • high, if not the highest order, had risen among them. She then played regularly a* the Prince of Wales'Theatre, up to 1878, her next most notable success being in the role of Will's \QJivia. Latterly her professional Ufe has been flomfiaed to that magnificent play house known as the Lyceum Theatre where, in Mr. Irving's theatrical host, she stands t to himself in prominence. —^. ««*«,«.*.
