I Of the weather last night, the ben, fl Of Mrs
Marietta Ravei was uot o. large Is ID woul

I a iair audience, and We observed many old
/ theatre g0crs IN attendance. It wss very
good houss under the circumstances, and
we only regret that the opp0 tunity was lost
% pay this great actress slsch 3 mpliment
as her great talents claimed Of al lovers OF
the drama. Her performances on the ght
rope j. grsnd ana beyond description she
stands in this particular feature where her
celebrared uncle, Gabriai RaYel, stood in
his great har equin feats and famous pantO
mimic characters. As al actress Of versatile
ability, Miss Ravel has few, if any, equals
on the American stage. She inherits all the
great dIamafieal talents OF her family. Her
TRIBE i'm persona ions ef Alexis, Aga,bs, and
AleXa IN the Greek Avenger last night fully
developed the great powers Of this great
actress. She was excellent IN every act,
and was oudly app.aused by an appresia-
members Of her family, she has steadily
climbed the ladder OF fame, id richly
mounts the hi h position she hiss ettERed
as al actre 8. her fame has not been
aehevsd by flowing hand bills and
sensation publieatian'. She creeped
and crasled before she walked erect,
and to-day Miss harietta has the
proud satisfaction Of rsaping the fruits
Of her arduOus labOr5. Ne are certainly in
clined 70 think, in this particular case, that
there Is something in 8 I anne, but very few
outside cf this gifted Young actress could
have sustained the great name Of the Ravel
fam ly as she has done. Her acting is nat
ural in every word and gesture, and nature
has admirably adapted her TO the profession
in which she has met with SO much success.
Her engagement in our city has been a com
plele success, and we only regret that her
stay is 50 short Tonight she appears for
the last time during this season, but we hope
soon 70 greet her on our boards, and we an
safely say thet in leaving the Nashville
boards, she carries with her the heartfelt
wishes Of all true lovers OF the drama, for
success in her future career. Tonight she
appears in the popular impersonstion Of
Nanderdecken, in the Flying Dutchmsn,"
piece in which she excels. The entertain
ment commences with the sde-splitting
farce Of Turn Him Out" This is an at
tractiye bill, and cannot fail to draw an i'm
mense audience. As this is her LIST appear
anee, in this engagement, we hope that ali
will avail themselves of the opportunity Of
seeing her in one Of her greatest i'm persona
tons.
Old MISUNDERSTANDING the unfa- |
vOTable evening, there was a full house Of
highly intelligent auditors, and we feel
sure many more would have been present
had it not been for the rain and mud
as the Old Theatre on the occasion Of Miss
Lotta's benefit The "Ticket Of Leave |
Man" was made all out Of that any one |
could possibly desire, and the audience man |
Tested their appreciation Of the success in a |
n rrhl At
from which a great moral is to be drawn ; /
it is founded on SEXUAL fact, and should be a |
matter Of rejoicing 10 see the truly reIen-
tant man, as exhibited in the character of /
Robert Briefly, triumph over those who /
would again drag him down to shame and /
degradation. Let IL be the aim and object /
10 encourage all, as the constant and al
ectionate Mary Edwards teaches US, that |
have committed an error Of the head and
not OF the heart, TO turn neither TO tho
right nor left, regardless Of the attacks and
assaults upon them by designing parties.
Miss Lolita, as sam Willoughby-the only
real living, breathing, kicking, rollieking
Sam Wllloughby on tue boards-furnished |
an untold amount Of real mirth aud enjoy
ment IN the tantalizations Of his "dear
granny In the jig, Lolita was spplauded

repeat II. Messfs- Petrie, Arnold, Benson,
AT and Henry Stewart, Everett and Harri-
son, and the Misses Fletcher, Andrews and
most Of whom we're in the
pieee-sre good, aud do credit to themselves
IN any character in which they a-e cast,
when they put their heads. to II. This even
ing closes up Miss Lotta's stay here, when
She goes hence to add, if possible, TO the
laurels she has already won as the greatest
pr0tean actress and commedieune Of the age.
We, in common with the public, will give
Der up reluctantly; but hope it will not be
J great while before We have the pleasure Of
lalllng her return. The programme for
his evenings entertainment is "rhe Fe-
male Detective" Mss Lolita enac,ing five 1
/ ferent characters, and "Liddy Larrigan."
PoLAND's THEATRE The doors Of this
heatre We're, as usual, again thrown open
asst evening 20 the public, and good many
here were that w Mt in, though msny more
sould have been accommodated. The per
ormance is No. 1, and if yoI are not dis
posed TO take cur word, YOU can very easily
60 and see and be convinced.
THE CEcUs.-The heavy rains that fell
yesterday morning and noon prevented
Dan CASTILLO from giving an afternoon per-
ormance az his pavilion. In the evening
here was quite a crowd in attendance, con-
ideriug the mud aud slush, and the omin-
