Both her father and her mother were actors, and she was only 7 jeirsold when she was as signed her tirst speaking part as Agib in "Tiniour, the Tartar." That was her one appearance in England, for a year later her motnsr, Mrs. Kinloch she was called on the programs, brought the little g'ul to America, where child won ders were much in fashion and where the little Luiea made something of a hit as the duke of Yoik in Junius Brutus Booth's production of '-Richard III.' With the pre6tiga of a Philadelphia ap pearance, the Lanes, mother and daughter1 went for a tour with a com pany in Jamaica and We6t Indies. They returned to the United States in 1833, and Louisa, who was 13 yearB old, git a placs in the sto;k company of the old Bowery playhousa, and for the next five years, at interval, 6he played ju venile parts in its productions. She had a brief season ot success in Boston in 1834, where eho played Julia in "The Hunchback," to the satisfaction ot the 3 ounger critics. In 1835 she went to New Orleans, where her Lady Teazle, in "spite of her 15 years, wonherieco.jnition as a clever actrrs? and the leadirg part3 in the sutsequent productions ot the c mpany. For her work at this tinis as leading kdy 6he received a salary oj $20 a weelr. 1 h9 year after her New Orleans ssaton sh9 married Henry Hunt, a veteran English opera singer, and returning to tho Wa'nut street theatre she was cast as Julie ds Mortimer in Elwin Forrest's ; production of "Riche'ieu." While 6he waa witi Forest she alio played Ophelia, Dssdeinona. Pauline and other "stock" heroines. In 1812, she again re turned to New York, and for four years appeared at the various theatres as a member of their Etcck companies in do mestic dramas, burlesque and light comedies. It was in 1817 that she made her first appearance in Chicago. During this, her first tour in tho west, sho visited Milwaukee, St. Louis, Mobile and New Orleans. Sho separated from Mr. Hunt in 1817, and a year later she married George Mot sop, n young Irish comedian, who died in 1819. It was while she was playing in a stock company in Albany in 1850 that shb met John Drew. They were mar ried at the end of the engagement, and forstvegal years they played leads to gether. Mr. Drew leased the Arch street theatre in Philadelphia in 1853 and was very successful. Five years later, with her husband, Mrs. Drew went en a tour through tho country. Mr. Drow's second attempt at manrging was less fortunate than the first, and after his experience at the National theatre in Philadelphia Mrs. Drew bean to look after tho busintej end of their dramatic ventures. She leased the Arch street theatre herself in 18(52, and for thirty one y ears she managed the house, al ways with a full measure of success. When Joseph Jefferson decided to stage, "The Rivals" Mis. Drew was given the part of Mrs. Malaprop the role which made her famou. She was in the "all-star" cast that presented "The Rival' a few years ago for C. W. Couldock's b3n,cfit. Mre. Drew's father was an English actor earned Lane. Her early education, so far as text book knowledge went, was almost wholly neglected, and when asked how she found time to go to school, she replied that she had never gone to school, as her stage work took up all her time. Her cultivation she said, was wholly duo io reading and as sociation with clever people. Of late years Mrs. Drew has made her home with her son, John Drew. Jap. E. Mcore, for ycirs associated with the management of Frank Sanger's attraction, has just conclude! a five years' contract to manage Mr. and Mrp. Royle in Mr. Royle's plays.
