PrpEu's OPERA HoUsE -OwESs.-lt is
seldom tha, one sees so well pleased an
andience as was assembled ut the Opera
House last evening, on the occasion OF
the first appearance OF John E. Owens,
the talented and famous comedian. The
pieces presented acre "E~rerybody's
Friend" and "Solou Shingle.' In the
first, as Major Wellington DeBoots,
Owens gave u full specimen OF his nat
ural powers in the serio-comic delInee-
tive line. He is possessed OF a remark
able facility aud felicity Of facial eX-
preston as well AS an exquisite coneep-
lion of the whimsical, which caunot
well be described, but needs only 20 be
seen to be thoroughly appreciated. AS
II promoter of true, heartfelt laughter,
Mr.. Owens is Il success, and, as such,
firmly established himself in the good
opinion Of our theater-goers last evem-
ing. His "Solon Single was u mas
terly p,ece of acting, aud his mhkc-np
perfect. In some points we did not like
the delineation quite so well as that OF
Herne, while in other points we liked il
better. The piece contains little merit
outside of the principal character, and
that Owens gave for all il was worth.
In both pieces he WAS well sustained by
Harrison, Hawk, Cain, Gregory, Mrs.
Reach, Mrs. Stewart, Miss Arnot, Miss
Daylcy, and the balance Of the dra-
matte company. Tonight EVERY
body's Friend" one of the best com
edies ever produced on that stage, will
be repeated, with "Forty WinkS as
the nlterpiece. Those who were not
present last evening were really untor-
tunate in missing the greatest dramatic
treat of the season, but let them not fail
to be present this evening. Owens en-
carement is n short one. Reserved
seats can be secured without extra
charge on application NJ the box office
Of the theater. Go and see the wonder
full Major Wellington DeBoots tonight.
The CHAMPION CiRcUs.-Lee Il Ry.
lands circus gave Il performance in
Gold Hill last night to II full house, and
gave most excellent satisfaction. 1t is
really the best circus (hardly excepting
Chiarini's,) that hns visited this State,
aud it is we'll worth seeing. Mr.. James
Cooke, who travelled with the Chiarini
circus, is the clown, and II right good
one he is-full of wit, humor and phil.
o~sophy-his style being rather of the
conversational order, than the short
testing, frequently too vulgar for . ears
polite" which clowns generally adopt
in the circus ring. This circus has also
the finest trick horse ever seen on this
side of the mountains, and the SD.
gaci,y and wonderful intelligence which
he displays in the ring is astonishing
to behold. The acrobat performance,
tue camels, the buffalo and wild Indian,
the dogs and the monkeys, and the
comic aftorpiece. all are very interest
ing, especially for the Juveniles. This
circus performs ut Dayton tonight, to-
morrow at Carson, Sunday NJ Empire,
Monday at Silver and Tuesday evening
at Fort Homestead, Gold Hill, for the
benefit Of Liberty Engine Co. No. |.
