"Nobody's Daughter, or The Ballad
Singer of Mapping is the title OF n
play which will be produced this even
ing on the stage at Pipcr's Opera House,
the occasion being the grand joint bene-
fit of Amy Stone and II. F. Stone. Not
having seen the play we can only say Of
it that it is possessed Of q high reputa-
ton as something extra in the dra-
matte sensational line. The New York
Herald speaks of it as follows: "'No-
body's Daughter II dramatizatioa
founded upon Que of Miss B:addon's
novels, is drawing full houses ut the
New York Theatre. The piece claims
to be a sensational drama, and, truth to
say, fully bears out the title. 1t opens
with a murder we get two poisoning
cases as the plot develops. There is
castle moat aud ~drawbridge scene by
moonlight. There is an abduction and
u rescue, and the heavy villain is salts
factorily shot in the last act. In brief,
there is incident enough for half II
dozen stock dramas and as the piece
is powerfully cast, its success is unmi'-
taxable. If for no other reason, we
should be grateful to 'Nobody's
Daughter for introducing q comic
Irish villain, o rare bird on the stage.
Your comic Irishman, rs a rule, is dis
tressingly ~yirtuous. Taken for all IN
all, 'Nobody's Daughter is about the
hes, sensational play Of the season."
PIpER's oPxRA HoUsE.-owing proba-
bly, to people waiting to attend the ben
lift Of tonight, the thea,er was not at
all crowded last evening. Stones Lord
Dundreary, in sour American Cousin
was. an Improvement upon his previous
repre,sntation but yet susceptible OF
more Improvement. The double sailors
hornpipe, by Stone and Miss Arnot in
"~Black-Eyed Susan" which was given
rs the ~afterpiecc, was very good.
When it comes to dancing, Stone can
inst throw himself about more lively
and with u little greater degree OF per-
feet %looseness than any man we ever
saw. Recollect that tonight Amy
Stone and II. F. Stone make their last
appearance and take a grand benefit,
which will be uumerously attended by
their legion Of friends in Virginia and
Gold Hill. "Nobody's Daughter, or
the Ballad Singer of Wrapping" n new
play never before presented in this see
ton, will be played upon the stage with
n full and complete cast of characters.
A crowded house is insured. No extra
charge for reserved seats.
