talented vocalists and sonaredians drew a large audience
to the Burden Hotel Assembly Booms, on Friday
evening last. The eetertninment oommenced with the
musical comedy "No Cards," In which broad fares con-
trasted with relined humour in • remarkable manner,
and the whole was made acceptable even to the most
sombre in dimomtion, if they could appreciate good

words, wan really first•class. The quasi plot resells
from the contention, of an elderly bachelor (Kr. Elite
Dee, acted by Mr. Germ= Reed) and a oemparatively
poor and shy young men (Mr. Churehmonse, excruciat-
ingly rendered by Mr. Arthur Cecil) to obtain the band
of Miss Penrose, the young and wealthy mien of Moe.

tions of Mr. Ellis Use, and union of the young folks ;
but not till after an immense number of the funniest
situations. The triumviretta of "Cox and Box! or the
Lousiest brothers," was a doubling of fun upon fun,
a burlenque on • comedy, yet made really delightful by
the beauty of the in c, Ant thing so marvellously
ludicrous, and yet so deliciously refimel it would be
bard to imagine. The jolly merriment of the hatter,
and the bilious temperament of Box were ably con'

Ilex's felinity to the bocce in which the quintessence of
humour in the words could alone have kept one from

sweet sounds breathed by the weary Box. The " Rata-
plan" of the landlord (Mr. ;Bouncer) by Mr. Alfred

purity with which the whole was performed.
