Oompton was accused by one critic at the time of overmuch " swagger " in the part. With less, however, I doubt whether the part would have been true ; it would certainly have been less humorous and less eifective. Dr. Pangloss, in " The Heir-at-Law," was one of his most successful assumptions. His stohd self-complacency; the satisfied chuckle with which he gave out his classical quotations with an increased sense of importance ; his keen eye to his own interest; his persuasion that absurdities ...in pursuit of it were dignified by his commission of them, and that no reward could equal his deserts — composed a solemn and pedantic figure, whichj with a facial expression not only appropriate, but varied, caused not only genuine mirth, but plea- sure arising from legitimate art. OUE EECENT AOTOES. 113 I have since seen another performance, of Dr. Pangloss — that of Mr. John S. Clarke — pre- senting a widely different personage from that of Compton, which, nevertheless, deserves high- praise.
