delighted last evening than on his first night.
tomorrow, at AZ O'Clock, he gives "a grand

"sphynx" to daylight after a sleep Of four
thousand years. We presume that more than
the usual quantity Of guessing will be done to-
morrow at "the matinee" by the ladies relative
to the perspective marvel, the Egyptian sphynx.
