NIBLo's, AsroR PLAcE.-The entertainment or last
evening began with the vaudeville called Kiss in
the Dark, which played with great entrain, and
elected much laughter. But the capital feature OF
the evenings performances the American comedy
of The Kentuc khan; or, trip to New York in 1915
in which Mr. Hackett. the popular comedian appeared
to great advantage We, need not eulogise this
tor whose talent is so well known to readers;
we may only say that, last night he displayed in
those three acts much fire ability and expression,
necessary make effect In comedy of Shakespeare
Sheridan Knowles. The character of Col. Nimrod
Wildfre to be Incorporated with its deueation
and Mr.. Hackett for whom the play was originally
written has, indeed rival in the style in which
he acts his part Mrs Maeder and the ever-smili ng
Miss Roberts, deserved also much credit. The whole
concluded with the laughable farce Of His Last
Legs, Experiments In Mesmersm,n which
ceyed amidst bursts of laughter. MIR Vandenhof ap-
pears this evening In Shakspeare's comedy of Kath-
crime and Petruchio which will be preceded by the
comedy of s. Faint Heart Never Won Fair Lady" and
followed by the farce of "Confounded Foreigners"
We Emay bespeak excellent house at the fine re-
sort of John Nblo for he deserves to be encouraged,
as being of the most enterpr!sing managers of
New York.
CnASrRAu's NArroNAL THrArRE.-This beautiful
theatre again crowded last evening" attracted,
doubt by the sterling talent which tle proprietor has
engaged, in order that his patrons should have no
to say that he behind the age in sutng the
taste and refinement of the people. The first piece
was the farce of Swiss Swans,n in which the mimi
table comedian Mr. c. Burke, kept the house in roars
of laughter This gentleman is great acquisition to
the National and will be sure to draw large houses
taned and the ballads she introduced were rendered
with great sweetness and taste This piece was sue
eded by the musical drama of " Don Caesar de Ba-
zan; and is needless to say Don Cesar in the hands
of J. r. Scott exquisite personation. With
Burke and Scott alone to say nothing of the strong
stock company engaged there, should not be
prised to the house crowded every night Miss
Carline danced " La Smelenska" with great grace
and elegance Of style. The performances concluded
with the comedy OF Nature and Philosophy" which
was sustained throughout with great ecat and the
audience ed highly pleased with their visit
this neat, comfortable theatre.
Burrows 'Dombey and Son., and .va-
lentine and Orson, the bill last evening at this
house, and large audience assembled. This
sion Of Dombey and Son is we think Of the best
adaptations which has been produced in New York.
1t follows the novel as closely stage effect will allow,
and the various prominent brought forward
without endeavorng to crowd too much The cha
racters too excellenty sustained; Burton's Capt
Cutie is Of the most natural pieces Of acting
have ever seen The famous scene where he tenders
the valuablesh to the stiff Mr.. Dombey, as security
for the money lent to Walter shows the Captain in all
his glory the musing gossping style in which he soil
loguises Jack Bunsby's excelences, is really admir-
able. Raymonds Mr.. Toots is a perfect representa-
but the very admirable manner in which he has per-
formed this part has given him great reputation a.
ready Nickinson's Dombey Brougham's Joey B. and
Bunsby, Mrs Vernon, Miss Nickinson, and the other
performers, all act admirably; and recommend all
to go to Buron's Theatre the first evening that it Is
performed. The amusing burlesque of'Valentne and
Orson" concluded the evenings entertainments
To- night fine bill will be played will be seen by
referring to our list of amusements.
