The New Orleans crescent. [volume] (New Orleans, La.) 1866-1869, 1868-04-15

TABLEAUx AND CoNCERT.-Among the many
needy objects earnestly appealing to the sym
patty and support OF the charitable, none bring
greater or more urgent claims than those institu-
the fstherless. and stony indeed must be the heart
of that one who refuses to give what he can to
aid in the maintenance of such. Among the asso-
Citations for the relief of widows and orphans,
none can boast better record for benevolence
and relief than that conducting st. Anna's Asy-
lum, on Prytanis street, near Felicity. Bat the
necessities Of the times have reached even those
helpless ones. and it In imperatively necessary
that some means be devised whereby the funds
of the association may be augmented sufficiently
to Withstand the demands of the coming summer
season. II is therefore with pleasure that we
invite the public to attend performance at the
National Theater on next Tuesday evening, at
which some two hundred ladies and gentlemen
will appear In a series of tabeaux. and Miss
Filomeno will entertain by some of her best
music. To those interested in the good work of
which st. Annals Asylum is an exponent, this
bare announcement will be q sufficient induce
ment to attend.

ACADEMY OF MUsIc.-The /" G.. d. A. B. F. A.r
was witnessed last evening by another enthusiastic
audience, and its various hits upon congressional
or cabinet eccentricities met with hearty appre-
citation and applause; We thought Miss Hardy,
as Virginia, more charming than we have ever
seen her, while Bloodgood, Schoolcraft, Della.
hsnty and HeDgler in their mock ballet were un-
speaksbly lndicrous. The piece, together with
the usual olio performances, will be repeated to-
night.

idle away leisure hour or two, no more desirable
opportunity is offered than by visiting this muse

Illuminated Tsblesux will be placed upon exhibi-
ton at the Varieties Theater. Comprising as they
do scenes from every portion of the world as
well ss humorous delineatioDs Of various phases

attracted thither by their display. The Senorits
Fiomeno will also lend charm to the entertain
ment, performing selections for the piano and
