We find in the Trait d Union that The
citizens of Mexico are even worse Off in the
matter of domestics than ourselves. 1t is
popular saying that "Hany hunt for work
and pray TO God that they may not find it"
This is e1emplifef in the lazy people who
devote themselves TO The trade Of domestic
service. 1t is unusual for one who applies
for menial employment to Cell his real
name, or one who will not claim or deny
relationship with some one At his fancy.
Such individuals are visited every day by
three or four friends, who are aecomplices
Of their thefts. They bsptise them all by
the name Of SISTERS" Some OF them have
visitors who come begging, and they assure
you that this is . brother, or perhaps .
husband Others say they must 90 home
every evening to see their pets, and this Is
to carry to their houses ali that they have

Lea Cent Vierges.

"Ies Cent Vierges was well received By
crowded house AS plot, the piece is
nothing, and the French dramatist persists
taking such odd English names as in
81 La Dame Blanche" Martha and this
piece. The plot is simple. A colonial gov
ernor wishes 70 promote the happiness of
his subjects. who are all single men. The
Board of Admiralty does what no
such authority can. shipe to the
governors order one hundred yir-
Gins. as per invoice. The lot is sup-
posed lost at sea, and we suppose the insur
ance officers settle. The duplicate los is
forwarded The stage effects Of this choice
of virgins are copied from the hiring scene
in Martha" and the the Rosiere lottery in
Barbe Bleue." Then there il a French
party on Q tour. 1t consists OF q newly
married couple and couple having more
matrimonial acquaintance, The plot, if any. :.
consists of series of mishaps keep
ing the newly married couple apart
This is effected by the pertinacious
friendship of the old couple, who inter
yene perpetually. in the most absurd
manner. This separation is temporarily
effected by the two married ladies' going
on board the vessel appointed 70 carry off
the emigrants. and being carried off acci-
dentally with them. The course and de-
nouement Of the piece is equally incon-
gruous The beresved French husbands
follow their wives, and find the ladies'
.bn h. Of NV 1n+} 4
time. The cargo of damsels having been
broken by the elopenent Of number at
various points touched at on the voyage
cut, there is a deficiency or shortage on the
appointed number, so there must be- an
ether lottery TO determine who among the
colonists shall be the happy sllostees. The
unhappy husbands assume female apparel,
and are balloted for. The Two ladies es-
cape their matrimonial imbrogli0 by .
pretended intrigue with their own hus-
bands, and arc rescued by an enleute
among the colonists, who have drawn no
prizes in the matrimonial lottery. The op-
perfume arrival of the first consignment of
women, supposed lost at sea. provides
every colonist with q wife or two. and this
corner il tho wife market having been
broken up, the piece terminates.
AS was observed by Mr.. Sher-
dan. when they do agree upon
the stage the unanimity is remsrka-
ble." Of course, the thing has no literary
or inventive merit. 1t would. perhaps, be
better appreciated IN Utah than anywhere
else in the United States. 1t is. however,
made the vehicle for some very passable
music. and one very charming though not
original solo, with some good concerted and
choral effects. All the time, hswever, one
feels as if drinking from glass from which
Offenbaeh had been quaffed, and the effect
i. fat and insipid. For unalloyed burlesque,
and capital satire, on royal autoeratie
composers and hierarchiaI humbugs, the
famous, wicked ana equally witty authors
of tho iibrettOs have no yivsls. Perhaps
vulgarity, unredeemed by genius, may hare
