BUTLER AND CHRIsDIE.-A very good audi.
ence greeted Butler and Chrisdie's excellent
pantomime and burlesque company at Music
Hall last evening. The performance was re-
ceived with much favor and no small amount
of surprise. The pantomime wasthe dramati-
cation of "house play" The stock charac-
tiers of Colnmbine and Harlequin were well
taken, and the antics though old, were very
amusing. The athletes were good and the
charming Larue children in the most diminu-
tive of burlesque operettas were excellent.
The performance will be repeated this evening.

, Love and Life.

Life Is like h stately temple
, That il founded in the sea,
Whose uprising fair proportions
Penetrate immensity:
Love, the arcl ;."ct who built it,
Building it etc nally.
To me, standing in the Present,
As one waits beside grave,
Tn he aisles and to the altar
Rolls the Past its solemn wave,
With a murmur as Of mourning,
Undulating in the nave.
Pallid phantoms glide around me
In the wrecks Of hope and home;
Voices moan among the waters,
Faces vanish in the foam;
But peace, divine, unfailing,
Writes its promise i'll the DOME
Cold the waters where my feet are'
But my heart is strung anew,
Turned to Hopes profound viera'ioh'
Pu!siL& all the ether through,
For the seeking souls that ripe.
In a PATIENCE strong and true,
Hark! the all-inspiring Angel
az the Future leads the cnolrf
All the shadows of the temple
Are illumed with living fre:
And the bells above are waxing
Chimes of infinite desire.
For the strongest or the weakest
!. There is no eternal fall;
MANY graves and many mourners,
But ut last-the lifted pail
For the highest and the lowest
blessed life containeth all.
O, thou fair unfinished temple!
In unfathomed sea begun,
Love, the builder, shapes and hits shee
In the glory of the sun; .,,,
And the builder and the builded
