PnorEssoR HAsELNAYgR, the great prestidi-
gitateur, commences on Monday evening next q
series Of his wonderful performances at Walls
Opera House, introducing each evening his
original musical instrument, made from wood
and rubber, called the "stylocarfc,n and tho
mysterious adventures OF "Ail Right" per.
formed by sixteen canary birds. His "Magical
Paper Mill, or the U. s. Treasury outdone," is
represented to be one Of the biggest frir on
record, while his magical drum answers ques'
tions Of the most intricate character. The Bal
timore papers speak Of his perform nces In the
highest terms Of praise. From the fact that
crowded houses have greeted the professor at
other places, we recommend our readers to Sc
cure their seats without delay
NATIONAL THEArRR.-Aithoughi last night was

"She stoops to Conquer" however, Is too un.
familiar nowadays to that portion OF the the
atricsl profession--or we should rather say-that
portion Of them who are engaged to all up the
cast-to make Its representation harmonious
picture, and the fine conceit Of the author, and
exquisite finish OF the dialogue is lost by their
inadequaoy to do their parts anything like JUS
tice. Mrs. Grafton has true idea OF, and per
formed In an excellent manner, tho character Of
Mrs. Hardcastie. Miss waite, clever rs sine

merit never to "o'crstcp the modesty Of nature"
Sheridan was better Charles NARROW than Van,
denhoR was q week ago In the character, but
was evidently not In his line. Mr.. Owens cannot
be said to excel as Tony Lumpkin; but It was Q
