Y3ens a. of Charles Pope.

The popular and talented manager of the
St. Charles Theatre, will have benefit on
Monday, on which occasion we expect to
course includes the appearance of Mr.. Pope,
in popular piece, with other attractions OF
no common character.
Mr.. Pope deserves we'll of the theatre
going people of this city. He has labored
| assidueusly for years to provide for their
entertainment, and be rarely if ever offers
| them programme that is not richly worth
their money, and what is of still greater i'm
| portance, their time. He has had the man
agement of the st. Charles Theatre for two
seasons, during which time he has raised its
character very materially. 1t is now the
favorite resort Of the elite and fashion of New
Orleans, no other place of amusement
standing higher. During the season just
closing the st. Charles has presented to its
numerous patrons great variety of novel;
ties, which have amply rewarded those who
have given their time to witness the repre-
sensations. When, therefore, Charles Pope,
who is mainly TO be credited with this i'm
provement, appeals 10 tAe patrons of the
| St, Charles for a benefit. the result is easily
foreseen. We learn that goodty number
OF seats have been already sold. but the
genial and humane ''P. Co. the good,
whose politeress never deserts him, will be
can see and enjoy the performance.
Z This benefit announced, fof the man
, sger Of the st. Charles. admonishes us that
the ''seasounis drawing to q close, and the
do0rs OF old Drury will soon be shut for ths
season.
