THE ZAvIsTowsKI TROUPE.--The Academy peo.
pie have gained prize in these remarkable artists.
We already begin to detect a current of agitation
amongst theater goers, and the rare abilities of
these beautiful and accomplished young ladies' is
becoming general topic. There are unmistak
able symptoms that they will be the rage before
the expiration of their first week. They just fill
the. hiatus thai appeared to be felt in the ola
podrida of entertainments at the Academy.
Mile Christine Zavistowski, Mile Emeine and
Mile Alice are admirable crichtons, and in three
nights have demonstrated that they are mattresses
equally in dancing, singing and acting. The heavy
ballet becomes nsipid after their simple, grace
full and exceedingly artistic dances 1t is new
revelation in Terpschore. We have not seen
Mile Christine in pantomime and melodrama, in
which she is said most to. excel, but in Mile Eme'
line as Colon, (the youth who never saw woman)
and Mile Alice as Eliza, in the little comedy Of
Mature and Philosophy" we found acting and
singing that we could not have thought possible
in girls. of eleven and, fifteen, which we are told
are their respective ages. Little Alice is already
star OF the first magnitude, and with her accom-
plished sister Emelne, sways the audience wit!

These cultivated artists will perform at the ma
| tinee to-day, in connection with the iunpnerabl

that one is led to believe that there panic In that
market, of surety. But there is none, and the
only reason why the firm are offering their goods
thus is that they will be better satisfied to have
reasonable profit than to keep their stock over
through the summer. We think this good and
sound policy, and hope that they will find it work
satisfactorily. From the remarkable cheapness Of
some of the articles offered it might be supposed
by persons unacquainted with the house that fhe
goods could not be sold so low. To all suck vo
say, 60 and satisfy yourselves.
