Here is what the Urooklyn Eagle, which 6 ruost excellent authonty, siiys ot' the play: Every seat in the Brooklyn Theatre wan occupied last night. All the avaliable standing room was llkewtse In use. The Incentive which drew an audlence so large, and as rultlvated and appreciatlve as it was vast, was the desire to enjoy Mr. W. A Mestayer's new folly: "We Us Co." H'he farce Is wet iu the offloe ot twoquack doctors In New York, and in the second and third acts tlie scène is transferred to Hot Spring. Tlie excuse of health-seeklng enables new songs, new funny business, new dances, and new mnchaiiical eflects to be lntroduced. Every actor is an expert humoriKt or vocalist Sivtral are both. The extravaganza is In advance of anythlng vet prodnoed on the line opened up by "The Tourlsts." It ha an asKurance of long lile and abonndlng popularlty, wlth an elastlclty which wlll ndmli of uew devloei and attractlons ad libilum.
