TESTIMONIAL BENEFIT TO THE BELL RING
ERs.-The talented Berger Family are to be
made the recipients of complimentary
benefit on Monday evening. the sixteenth
instant, at the hands OF few of our proml-
nent citizens, who have engaged the Paris
Pavilion, corner of Canal and Villere streets,
for that purpose, and it is probable that
some extra local talent may also appear.
The Bergers have made themselves favorites
with our citizens, and We shall be pleased to
see their merits substantially recognized.
This will probably be the last opportunity
for some time to come ofseeing this favorite
company, or listening to the melody of their
silver bells, as we learn that the Be'gers
contemplate, within the coming year, max
ing an extended tour around the world,
visiting Australia, China, Japan, etc.

Acade my OF Ae Bsic.

It is so much the custom of the press to
praise theatrical performances that the
public mistrust has been aroused, and in
stead of taking for truth all that is written
in this respect. it often happens that ex-
travagant praise has the effect TO make
people doubt even when the performances
that are spoken Of merit the highest en-.
comiums that can be bestowed. The ladies
and gentlemen composing the Berger
Troupe have given series of the most
genteel and entertaining perform
ances at the Academy this week in
their peculiar line, and have no. fail
ed to attract large and fashionable
audiences that have been prompt
to manifest. their delight at the refined and
artistic manner in which they are nightly
entertained.
There is nothing in the performance of
this troupe of youthful artistes that can be
objected to by the most fastidious. They
are accomplished musicians, and have
modest, genteel way of going through their
performances that is at once novel and cap.
tiyating. Music, indeed, hath charms, vo-
cal as we'll as instrumental. 1t has power
of sympathy, as well as symphony, that can
not be resisted, particularly when youth and
female beauty are blended in the work.
We were not astOnished at
the success which has attended the per,
fo1mances of the Berger troupe in this city,
even at this advanced period Of the thea
trical season, for its members have much to
re recommend them to public favor.
Mr.. Sol Smith Russell, the great character
impersonator and comic singer of this com
pany, takes benefit TO- night, and it will be
strange if there is not crowded house.
The Berger troupe will continue their per-
| formances at the Academy until Sun day even
ing. People have only TO see and hear them
to have all doubt expelled as to the character
of these performances. After concluding
at the Academy they will perform on next
Monday evening at the Pavilion, on the
corner of Canal aud Vlllere streets. They
will then proceed to Mobile and fulfill a
| short engagement.
| We take pleasure in commanding them to
public favor, but feel that wherever they
are seen and heard this will be unnecessary
| as their performances will do that more ef-
| fectually than anything the press can say.
