The National Theatre.


This theatre, devoted to the German
drama, opened for the winter season last
evening, under the management o. Edward
Harting, and with pretty good company
of performers. The seats were not as well
flled as was desirable, but among the per-
sons present we noticed some of our NEST
respected and influential citizens, such as
Governor Hahn, Christian Schneider, Thee
dore Lilienthal, and others.
The five.act comedy entitled The Glass
Of Water constituted the evenings enter
tainment, and was tolerably well performed,
considering all things.
Mr.. Harting as BoIiHgbfolce, and Mrs.
lIssse as Queen Aaad, did very we'll
although the latter scarcely possesses sufi-
cient natural dignity for Queen. TIE
acting of the evening was done by Miss
Fellmann, a young lady from Baltimore,
whose peTsOnation of the character of the
| Duchess OF Marlborough can hardly be sur
| passed. Indeed, Miss Fellman is decidedly
| The artist of the whole company, and is
bound to win dramatic honors and popu-
larity among our theatre-goers of German
origin. .--.-= ........ .....
Success to the National Theatre, and to
the honest and thriving people who patron
ize it! z

Under the Gaslightn is one Of the most
popular sensation plays that has ever been
put on the stage in New Orleans. 1t
draws, 1t fills the house every night, and
the matinee to-day was jammed. And yet
there is no particular depth of Imagination
in the drama. 1t is well defined repre-
sentation of life in great city. There is
nothing especially elevating or ennobling
in the play, On the contrary, there is of
necessity good deal of slang talk during
its rendition. But 1t pays, and we advise
everybody to see it.
No performance tomorrow evening, for
which people obeying Gods command
ments should be thankful.

Last evening the audience was percepti-
bly, larger, to see the Lady OF Lyons
Mark Smiths superiority over others who
take the role of Colonel Damas was marked.

GEN SEIGEL.-The mendacious Cop
perhead Press, has been trying to
make votes for. Seymour and Blair
with the Germans, by quoting Major
Gen. Franz Seigel as for them, in the
face Of the fact that he has been ed.
ting . Radical, Republican paper
ever since he was mustered out of
the service.
The following extract from letter
of his, in reply to an invitation to at
tend the great Soldiers Convention
at Philadelphia, ought to nail this last
lie to the counter:
"In thanking the committee for the
cordial invitation, l am sorry to say
that other engagements and duties
will prevent me from participating
in your demonstration at the time
stated. Ishall, however, not fail to
DC present at the grand mass meeting
Of the Sd Of November to throw nv
vote into the scale for the triumph Of |
national supremacy, justice and hui

WHITE BOYS IN BLUE.-Seymour
and Blair companies all over the
country composed for the most part of
the gallant MANNED heroes of the coun-
try, whose breasts formed bulwark
against the assaults of the rebellion.
are pretty generally douning the
name Of "Wbite Boys in Blue"
Its supposed that this change of
name from Seymour and Blair guards
grow out of their intense desire to
Jet the public know that they
are not "Black boys in Blue"
"This lisa hog" wrote the ambitious
painter, underneath his first effort at
delineating an animal he was anxious
the public should not mistake for
Jackass or any other unclean beast
A good idea which our malish
"White Boys in Blue" have happily
adopted.
Meantime the change of name has
offorded the Negroes as much delight
as christmas holiday, with roast
Possum garnished by a Virginia h oe
down to banjo solo.
