TIE DRAMATIC ENTERTAINMENT AT THE OPEEA
HousE.-The entertainment at tile Opera House,
. on Saturday evening last, drew an audience,
such as is rarely seen at regular theatrical exhibi
+ toEs The assemblage was very intelligent.

of attire. In that house there has never been such
an absence Of artificial decoration, and, at the
same time such attraction of all that glorious

Is nate girl Polonius and the grave digger, too,

t reader, not an actor.
re ance was given may congratulate themselves upon

ut to the numbers attending and the pleasure
e afforded the audience. With practice, many oi
ie the performers would become artists Of the frs
$, class and they will regard criticism as al
advice and not discouragement.
