FANNY ELssLER's REcLPTioN.-Fanny Elssler
was received last evening with great enthusiasm, by
the most brilliant audience the fremont Theatre has
wtne since the days Of La Sonnambula.
The ieces selected for her debut we're not especial
ly lifted TO elicit the extraordinary grace and
finished ease OF her style Of dancing; they the
same in which she first appeared in New York.
Imperfect as the opportunity was, even Boston
audience was reused into thunder Of applause, and
at the close she called out, and shower of gar
lands and wreaths were thrown upon the stage
La Belle Elssler acknowledged the compliment in
a very brief but neat speech.
The resemblance to a lady Of this city, which our
New York ceres pendent first observed, mat
ter of general comment last evening, and ad-
m,t,ed BY all TO be wonderful, and to some recalled
the gries long since forgotten by all but themselves
| it recalled the image the dead. When the Bos-
tonans Fam, in the Syphide that test of power
IN the art OF dancing, or the smolenska, and some
other Of the witchery dances, which have fairly
made the Gothamites crazy with admiration, we
have no doubt they will follow the example, and be
as mad as they. Fanny Esser is not only the most
perfect artistic that has yet visited this country, but
her beauty and modesty OF department on the stage
are remarkable: The choice of all the boxes will be
offered at auction, tomorrow, and thus afford
elsal chance to all to obtain tickets W

From the Boston Post
Fanny Essler received with unbounded en-
thus iasm last night by immense audience. and
not only realised, but, venture to say, surpassed
the high expectations OF the multitude who beheld
her. She is very beautiful. Gushing, give us your
hand We expected to the Attorney General,
but did not discover hm-perhapshe hid under the
flap OF some man coat.
From the Boston Courier,l
There was goody crowd at IL o'clock, in the
lower saloon Of the fremont Theatre, of bidders for
the choice Of boxes, al Fanny Elsslers first sppear-
ance this evening, before a Bosten audience The
bidding was spirited, and the income Of premiums
received on half the boxes, two hundred and
fifty dolars-the proscenium boxes were not sold.
Alter the auction, the rush for pit tickets tre
mendaus and, in the scuf1e, one gentleman was
minus pocket book, with fifteen dollars, the con-
tents thereof.
TRIAL OF A DuELLrsr IN NEW ORLEANs-M
Throuet tried few days since, for killing q
man at New Orleans, in duel, and acquitted.
There appears to have been doubt about the fact
but the penalty is severe that popular opinion
would not sanction the enforc ement Of the law.
The infiction Of single ignominious punis hment,
for the crime of murder committed in duel, would
tend to suppress the practice, and we hope to
it tried in New Orleans.
NrBLo's GARDES.-The weather was too dirty
for any body 10 60 to the gardens last night, but
the Raves are to repeat the pantomme this
evening, there will be a congregation Of smiling ia
ces, though it should prove quite so fair as
il might for the occasion.
PARK THEArRE.-Power and Placide tonight in
the Nervous Man and the Man Of Nerve. The
more these two artists play together, the more POI
pular the theatre becomes 1t will be crammed to-
night-for the purpose Of seeing them play their
crack parts-as il ought TO be.
