IL i u.
Now as the fact becomes more patent every
day that the various dirty and filthy preparations
advertised as Reviewers, Rcstoratives, &C., are
but compounds of Sugar of. Lead and Sulphur
and therefore should be Stunned by all who
value their health, it is scarcely matter of sur
prise that the demand for NATTANS' CRIS
TAI DISCOVERY, admitted to be perfectly
harmless, and yet accomplish all, and more, than
the poisonous articles claim to do, should have
increased so rapidly. 1t restores the color and
growth of tho hair positively in few days.
Strengthens the roots, makes an excellent dress
ing soiling neither clothes nor scalp; but on the
contrary it gives the scalp q pure and cleany
look, removing all dandrutf and scurf 1t is tho
most economical preparation in use. Put up in
large bottles, at ore dollar.

New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1871-01-04
st. Charles Theatre,

The substitution. this week OF what i
called the grand oriental spectacular ex-
trayagaaza, entitled ''Sindbad, the Sailor"
for paris, Or TIE Apple of Dscord." that
was played with such success last week by
the troupe now performing at the St.
Charles, has haG no perceptible effect in
either diminishing or increasing the brill
ant audiences that have been drawn iither
since the retirement ct the ACCOMPLISHED
Miss Maggie Mitchell.
The attendance at the st. Charles thus far
this week has bcen good, and "Sndbad"
will most likely continue 30 draw the bal
ance Of the week. TIE present troupe does
not appear to as coed advantage in this
piece as il the one in which it made its
debit. AT least this is the opinion q one
who has watched the performances with
some care since the pgeseat troupe com
mcHced its en- gagemcnt.
Last winter, 'SindbaI," rs performed by
the Lydia Thompson Troupe, had re
nlarkabiv successful run. and vas Justly
regarded as a very pleasing and clever per
fo:Inance-in fact, one q. the best rendered;
by tLe troupe. But then the troupe EN-
byaced Miss Thompson. Miss Markham AID
ar. Becket-threc very essential person
ages in the successful performance of
'Sinubad."
Those who saw this piece pcrfol med last
winter can readily detect the deficiencies
that exist in its present performance. The
present troupe signally fails 10 play this
piece with that confidence and dash that
gave such eeiat to its representa- ions here
last winter.
Tue merit Of this piece depends entirely
upon the manner in which it is rendered by
those who are chosen to taxi part iii It.
Ill have to enter into is with eyirit-aud
the spirit has to manifest itself throughout
in order to bring the play to successful
conclusion. This was t,le secret of its sue
cess last winter. 1t waA the rim that per
vaded tie whole troune -exh;bited by in.
diridual members in q remarkable degree
that excited the admiration of a.. who saw
"sindbad' performed chem
As there is nothing in the composition
OF plot OF this play ito especially recon-
mend It, without spirit ed acting it fails to
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1871-01-04

create that enthusiasm which is essential to
give it complete success. 1t = true the
present company has succeeded III drawing
flair houses but they viii not compare
favorably with those of last winter to wit
ness representations Of the Same piece.
The troupe. as at present constituted,
appears to much better advantage in "Paris,
or the A tple ST Discord," than in ''Sindbad;'
and leaving out or changing the representa-
tives Of the prize ring for less Objectionable
characters. 1t undoubtedly possesses more
pleasing features than are presented in
