PPERs' OPERA HOUSE," ARRAu-NA
PoouE."-" Arrah-na-Pogue" called
for crowded houses on both Saturday
and Sunday evenings and was not dis
appointed. The operating of the scenery
was conducted much better than At the
first presentation, consequently win
much finer effect. There is II great deal
of machinery about the arrangement,
and il gives Finn aud G~oodchild, tue
scenic engineers, together with tne'r
entire force of assistants, about all tnsy
want to do. We think that SINKING
castle wall arrangement might ue us
pensed with to very good advantage.
The idea of Shaun escaping from prison
by climbing up II bright, green sea-weed'
stuck fast for his especial nccommoua-
ton 10 n massive castle wall which
sinks as he climbs, and swings and
twists about in the shakicst manner
possible all the while, is simply a ride
ulous bu~rlesque, aud totally fails TO
convey TO the audience the idea intend
ed. IL might appropriately DC styled
Wheatleigh's great brenk-neck act,
and is one of those extensive and en-
p~cnsive arrangements where "the 'an
doesn't pay for the powder ".Arrah'
na-Pogue" will be repeated Tonight Tor
the last time. AS performed by Mr.
Wheatleigh and his talcnted dramatic
company, it is one of the best plays yet
produced on that stage, and all who
have not seen it should not fail 10 DC
present this evening. Tomorrow the
'sOctoroou will be substituted.
