is predicted they will have a greater patron
age than ever before. Says the RepHt-
tican:
The close OF the engagement OF Miss
Lydia Thompson and troupe necessitates
very little remark OF any kind whatever.
They have done a reasonably good business,
but nothingAt all extraordinary and there
has been none OF that enthusiasm noticeable
on previous visits. In short, the blonde de-
partment of buriesque is 30 longer a novel
", buu is forced 10 stand sQuarely on its
merits, and rise or fall with the public esti-
nation OF those merits. When luxurious
female legs ana "a superb bundance OF golSSn
locks Were new articles i'll the market, We
populace were pardOnable in going often
and early to see them, and taking much de-
light in the inspection thereof but now,
when legs and locks are as COMMON as dead
leaves III autumn, the same pOpuiace are
.justiiia ole in paying very small attention to
them. And, Tor our part, we Shall be glad
when the last remnant Of this glittering
trash is swept from the stage altogether. or
at least confined to those establishments
which openly cater to the lowest instincts
of fun-loving humanity 1t is, after all, but
sbase amusement that these people furnish
us, even in their best estate. A woman
dancing, talking, singing and pantoniinling
behind the fUothghts, with not many
clothes OF her back and fewer still below, is
a sorry show, and the men who accompany
her seldom have talent enough to save
them from dramatic damnaJion if they ap-
peared in legitimate plays The truth is
that the school of art-ii such it may be
termed (Which the Thompsonians represent,

French novels is to iiterature--corrupting

Similar suggestions have from time to
time, with more or less variation, been adj
vanced from many respectable quarters,
and we do think that the subject merits
the most careful consideration. By adop-
ting a plan of that sort, we may not only
be able to avoid a deficiency in the Budget
for 1S72-73, but we would most assuredIy
be saving good little sum in future; at the
same time the application Of the above men
toned buildings for purposes like those
above suggested would be relieving wants
which this community has for q long while
been feeling, without possessing the pecu-
mary means for alloviating them. We
would strongly urge upon the Colonial
Council, upon the Members of its Budget
and Administrative Committees, and finally
upon His ExcelIency Governor Billie to take
this whole question under consideration, and
propose a plan for the better application
of the various public buildings some of
which are at present only partially used,
while the most necessary institutions are
housed in delapidated buildings or slowed
away in dingy, dirty apartments.
Our correspondent has brought up for
the first time the question of an Infant
School, a question we had intended at a
later and more convenient period to touch
upon. 1t is asubject Of the greatest impor-
tame, and would not prove disagreed
bic to the taxpayer, for it ought in
our opinion, to rest on private charity,
with the exception of a locality, which
should be furnished by the public. We
know thatmany ladies arc anxiousIy expec-
ting the question to come up. Let this be it's
first humble appearance in public.-ED.
