D~ The Festival on Thursday evening
last; for. the benefit Of st. Thomas Church
was q decided success, and reflects great
credit on the good taste of those ladies
who originated aud managed it.
The Tableaur Tirants were very hap.
py IN their performance and arrangements.
The 6rst on the programme-The Game
for Life-was well executed the different
figures preserving their position admirable.
The second and third Before and after
Marriage-it is only necessary to say was
as natural as life, and afforded much
amusement.
The fourth-Night and Morning
charming, and while looking at the repre-.
sensations Of those two periods, we hardly
know which to prefer, Ugh, or darkness
The iflh-W omans' Rights-was ve-
ry happy satire on one of the prevailing
dogmas of the age. The figures arrange
ed with Judgment while the performance
was excellent
The sixth-The Hight of Fashion
was charming burlesque ON the prevail!
ing female costume of the day
The seventh, was a Charade, and good
thing.
The eighth and ninth-Country Court
ship, in two scenes-afforded great salts
faction. The characters were well cast
and we'll gotten cp.
The tenth--a Charade-and fine thing
The eleventh. Eocahontas saving the
life Of Capt. John Smith. The attractive
figure in this Tableaux was Pochahontas
Was ever aborigne so lovely. Who would
not have been John Smith or any other
Smith Or man to have been saved by such
Pochahontas
Maidens' first Love- This zig.
ure was enough to give one realization
of love.
Thirteen-a Charaie-and highly ere.
ditable.
Fourteen-The Goddess of LIBERTY
When We saw this we became so enamor-
ed with liberty as almost to become con-
vert to abolitiouism.
Fitteen-President Levee. In this, the
closing piece, the actors appeared in
characters, and all that was wanting to
make the thing perfect was the presence
of "a man and brother"
After the 7'abieuur-a bountiful supply
of refreshments were distributed among
the audience.
The music furnished by the Sioux City
Band was very fine, and the Church is
under great obligations for this gra,ituous
olferina to the occasion. Also, to Mr..
FULLER, for the use Of his Hotel.
