Mr. Wright and Miss Wyndham amuse the Adelphi audience by

a scene of love and jealousy, entitled A Bottle of Smoke. The lady uses a cigarette to restore the health of a favourite plant; and the gentleman, sniffing the fumes of tobacco, suspects the presence of a rival. There's the whole plot; which, slight as it is, serves to exhibit the well-known humour of Mr. Wright, and to reveal in Miss Wyndham a talent for the French conversational mode of acting, which had hitherto remained un- known.
