never puts anything in the style Of trage-

life, entitled Rory O'Aoore, at the

takes the personation Of the rollicking
Rory" Ifhe fails to eclipse the picture so
charmingly presented by Collins some
years ago, he will, nevertheless, give the
lights and shades of Irish humor such
graceful touches as to render the chief
character Of the drama a pleasing por-
trait. The little comedy of the Ttoo
Buzzards closes the entertainment.
Wednesday night Mrs. Cline, who has
been favorite with everybody during
the whole season, takes benefit.
She richly deserves bumper.
As an actress and lady she has
won the esteem and good.wishss of
the best patrons Of the drama, and we
are confident her host of friends will not
forget her great merits on her benefit
night. That the occasion may be one Of
unusual splendor, several ladies Of this
city have volunteered to assist in the
chorus of the Grand Duchess-a novelty
in itself sufficient to attract full house.
Friday evening the universally admired
McWade takes his benefit. Two rows
of seats in the dress-circle have already
been secured by parents for their little
boys and girls. In no theater in the
world can be seen such groups Of neatly
dressed and lovely children as will be
gathered in the New Memphis on this
occasion of the children's " funny mans 5"
benefit. 1t will exceed in grandeur any
thing ever before witnessed in Memphis.
Secure seats as quick as you can; there
will be jam Of loneliness and beauty.
