Dat Ting's Played Out.

A correspondent of the Cincinnati Gazette,
writing from Nashville July 10th, relates the
following significant incident which recently
iranspired way down in Tennessee:
"At the corner of Cherry and Broad streets
is small bat comfortable and popular lheater,
called Poland's Theaier. There is no heavy
tragedy. or even standard comedy, ever per
formed there: but the manager understands,
nevertheless, how to draw u crowd and with
the aid of pretty dancing girls and ex'rava-
giant arces. he manages TO attract very con-
siderable audience every night. THIS andie ce
consists generally of soldiers, although there
are many others who go TO enjoy the laugh
which may almost always be obtained there.
Two or three nights since | happened to be
present at one OF these exhibitions. There
was the usual amount of singing. dancing, light
comedy and bread farce. In one of the ex
travagauzas a theatrical manager is represent
ed as having advertised for company of per-
formers. Soon after, negro. dirty, ragged,
old and dilspidaled presents him-elt and pro
poses to play an engagement. The manager
asks hin what he can play. With much as
surance, be answers that he can perform almost
anything. The manager then tries him on

Sambo
Well says the manager, your part is such
one that you won't be allowed TO speak
much

manager.

than from pit t. dome. the little ibeater was
