INJUNCTION. The RareI Family against
William N,bio.-Wlam Niblo engaged the Ravel
Family to play at his Garden during the Summer
and Fall Of 1851, to play three nights week, and
during their engagement w n. was not, on the other
three nights of the week, to have any balets pan
TONNES. anything connected with their line Of
business. Mr.. Niblo applied to by the ladies' Of
the French Company for the use Of his Theaterfora
benefit for them, which was TO be got up by their
friends. MIR. ~ agreed they should have II last Sat
urday night, on which occasion the very talented
ROusse Family volunteered 10 dance for their coun-
trywOmen the Rayel Family objected to the R0us-
sets dancing. and endeayored to stop them by an IN
junction. The house was crowded, the Roussets
danced, and received showers Of bouquets and tre-
mencouS applause, and the French artists received
a substantial benefit. II Is mistake, as has been
stated, that Mr. NlbO had let his Theater TO the
Ravel Family, that he had let II TO the Roussets
that he gong to let 1t 10 Others The French
artists had II for Saturday night only and Tor tho
mere expense Of Lighting up.
