Owing to to the great desire to see the tab
leaux, and the crowds attracted in the eve

tableauz be presented in the afternoon as
we'll as evening. This would tend to equal

ton. The crowd was so great in the hall
last evening, that two or three ladies tainted
and had to be carried out. Miss Carrie
Thompson tainted and went into commissions
She was taken to her residence on Marion
street.
Marshal Gallagher with posse of police
men were in attendance to render whatever
service might be required Of them. They
kept bright eye out for pickpockets, and
We have not heard of any depredatiOns by
that peculiar gentry.
