THE BRUDERLrc1E BUNo last night gave a splcn-
<hd musical and theatrical entertainment at their
Hall in King street. opposite Clifford We were
200 late for the musical part Of the programme,
but enjoyed the play very much: seine S,Kphade
:E'1sse'' D'enst," lively comedy, which was most
cxccuentiy acted. .7ctchen and Kabiz, in our opin-
ION. acquitted themselves most admirably The
,arGc audience present seemed tc enjoy tho intel
2cctua treat set bcrore than by thoir cnterprisins
manager.
This, we believe is only tho second time this
Bund has vontured on the boards, but they have
cvcry reason to feel gratifed with their success,
and wo hope that the interest at present mani
tested by them in histrionics, will be productive
ere long Of still more brilliant results

morning of the goth. Tee ceremony will take
place between the hours Of 8 and A NJ, at a timo
whom tired natures sweet restorer is most potent
and they arc probably few who feel sufficiently in
fercsted on the subject to turn star-gazcrs It is
very lnconvenieEt time for even servants to take
o9servatlons. and the phenomenon will probably
pass ,7nnotced many not even being aware Of the
commotson prevailing in tho Heavens. In other
days an eclipse was great institution and smoked
glass and otter appurtanances were in great de-
mand, but since the present show will take place
at such disrcputab.e hour, it is fair to presume
that all woll-conducted individuals will remain in
bed and pay 10 attention to fair luna's pranks.

lamp post for a friend, and, when discovered, was
grasping it in a firm embrace. The police, with

cidedly disgusted with the world
