PIPxR's OPERA HOUSE," Richard
III was the grand attraction at the
Opera House last evening. 1t certainly
was exceedingly well rendered through
out, and fully entitled to all the ap'
| plause it received. The sword combat
between Stark and Mccullough n sell
dom sees equaled, being executed with
a degree of vehement Yigor savoring
very much of reality, and having quite
an exciting effect upon the sympathizing
audience. "Hamlet" will be produced
tonight, with Mccullough in the title
character aud Stark as the Ghost. For
balance Of cast, see distributed pro-
| grammes. Tomorrow evening John
Mccullough takes u benefit, on which
occasion will be produced B~rougham's
beautiful comedy Of Playing with
Fire" Mr.. Mccullough will also reci;e
"Tom Flynn of Virginia :" n new, SIM
pie, aud beautiful little poem by Bret
Harte. Go and see Hamlet tonight,
and take the same opportunity to secure
reserved seats for the benefit tomorrow
night.
