ADJUSTMENTS.

! Mrs Oates and her troupe, who have
| occupied the stage of our Jheater during
/ the past week, viii, we arc happy 10 an
/ DOunCe, continue with us another week.
| They will offer during that tins the best
l they have from a repertoire replste, as
! our theater going public already know,
/ with gems Of Durl0sQue, extravaganza
/ and farce A distinguishing merit OF the
] performances of this troupe is that every
| thing is given with a view to purest en-
! iOymeut, and that there is nothing said or
| done calCulsted to minister in sny way TO
| minds diseased or prurient. We are glad
| 70 be able 10 chronicle the fact that Mrs.
/ Oates, who is q really deserving actress,
/ has made a decided hit here, and that she
| is quite as popular as she could be In New
York, whore last summer shs created
/ furOre. Her style is piQusnt without vul-
| garity, and she Is irreslst bly, comic with
| out trying 10 be. We hope she will be
/ hOnOrsd with crowded houses during
next week. She deserves such cOmpli-
ments not only because she Is a Tonnes
/ seean, bat because she is a credit to her
profession. She is not vet at the head of
it, but in her line she has few superiOrs
The Theater ought to be crowded every
night this week.
THE LECTURE LAST NIGHT.-Ths lee
ture OF Colonel j. NJ Folsom deliv-
cred last night in The Second Circuit
COurJ-rOOm, was, we regret to say, very
poorly attended. The cause in which the
gallant Colonel is enlisted, no less than
his own ability, should have insured him
against failure and saved Us the NORTH
cation OF recording the fact. as will be
seen by the appended call, an opportunity
will be afforded Colonel Folsom Of repeat
ing his lecture, and the public of doing
him and itself justice by filling every seat
IN the place that will hereafter be- desig-
mated.

IHE MENDELss0HNs have done a good
thing. They have reelected their old Of
hcers. This was no more tEan We ex-
pected they would do. Gentlemen who
had conducted the affairs Of the Club so
well were every way worthy of being in
trusted with its future. This step in
sures the public the perfection Ofthe pro-
gramme which the indefatigahle and cUl-
tured Herzog some months since marked
out, and which No have the best reason
for knowing VIII enhance this ambitious
and creditable musical organization in
the estimation Of the public of Memphis.
On Friday night next they will give the
first Of a series Of concerts that will 1T
tingly close their first season 1t viii be
given at the Memphis Club Hall, and we
predict viii be q grand affair, OF course
the hall will be crowded.
