WASHINGTON TIEATRE--On account of the unpleasant.
Of the weather last night the benefit of Mr. Owens
not so well attended it otherwise would have
been, The plays however, went oil WE'LL and the audi
welcomed the beneficiary with the most enthusiastic
applause At the end of the second piece in which he
appeared in the humorous character of Scion Shin
gle, the Yankee teamser, there long continued ef
fort to call him before the curtain but he did not re-
spond and the noisy demonstrations only silenced
by the orchcstra's striking up forissoao movement
We hope the benefit of Mr.. o. may be repeated on a
more favorable night as he is avorite with our ct
zens.
