Announcements.


Mr.. McWade appeared last night in
the character Of RIP Van Wmklet to q
crowded and fashionable house. We
cannot commend too highly the natural
acting of McWade from the opening to
the closing scene of the drama. The
Second Act, containing the scene on the
Katskill Mountains, where rip meets
with the spirits of Henrick Hudson and
his followers, is an improvement on the
mannerin which tits presented by JEFF
ferson. Indeed, it is difficult to decide
which version is preferable. and we are
glad that we have seen both, for each
presents attractive features. The awak-
ening Of Rip after his sleep Of twenty
years, and his affectionate parting with
the skeleton Of his dog Snyder" is a
splendid piece Of acting. Tonight Rip
Van Wrinkle viii be presented again, no
doubt to a crowded house, for our play
goers will not soon become weary of this
Knickerbocker legend when presented
in so attractive manner.
VARIETIES "A crowded house greeted
the troupe at the Washington street
theater last night. Manager Schooles
has one of the best variety companies in
the South and superior to any in the
city. Miss Annie Gibbons, the. favorite
danseuse, appears every night. On Sat
urday next Miss Gibbons will take ben
eft. Tonight there will be a complete
change of programme.

Steamboatmen are profuse in com
plants. Of dullness The suspension of
business on the upper rivers, together
with the increased amount of tonnage
seeking employment in southern trades,
renders business very unpromising so
far as returns are concerned. Still, there
is a considerable amount of freight going
southwark. But not enough to give full

in this port.

A card from Mr.. Mcwade.

MEMPHIS, November IL. 1870.
To my esteemed friends. the citizens Of
Memphis
am called upon by several of my
friends to say few words with regard
to an article published in the Memphis
Appeal of this morning The said arti-
Gle is not critique on my acting or my
play of Rip Van Wrinkle. But, to the
contrary, it is an. insult to myself and
countrymen Why? Because it infers
that, as an Irishman, | am out of place
in the character of Rip Van Wrinkle.
This is simply as absurd as it is unjust.
All educated people know that Ireland
has graced the pages of history through
all ages, whether in poetry, science or
the drama; therefore it is useless for me
to further speak of that | desire here
simply to say that j cannot think that
the editorial staff of the Appeal, who
have in other days proven to me their
personal and public good will, would,
with their knowledge, permit such an
insulting personality to appear in their
columns. With regard to the success of
myself and play, l refer the reading pub
lie to the columns of the public press,
from the city of New York to the city of
New Orleans, all of which have honored
me by acknowledging my play original,
my acting my own conception of Irving S
renowned character,
Most respectfully yours,
ROBERT McWADE.
