The French Plays do not appear to interest the public

; and, we hear further, are not quite satisfactory to the subscribers. The ma- nagers rely too much on the attraction of the name and talents of JENNY VERTPRE. She is a star, and a brilliant one : but the managers are quite wrong in adopting the bad English " starring system." The reputation of the French stage can only be sustained here by that com- pleteness and evenness of the ensemble for which its performances have become celebrated. Mediocre and unequal representations of MouEttE only disappoint.
