AMusEMENTs.


MEMPHIS THEATER.-The Streets Of
New York, or Sketches of Metropolitan
Life, drew a large audience to the matt
nee yesterday. 1t was produced with
fine effect, the scenery and surroundings
being unexceptionable. AS Badger
Mr.. Chas. Pope appeared to advantage,
and displayed considerable versatility.
He displays taste and sound judgment
in his representations, and is rapidly
winning popular favor in Memphis. The
leading parts, such as "Bloodgood,
" Dan" "PuGy,p "Alida Bloodgood,
and News Boy" were filed respee-
lively by Messrs Hurley, Rainfortb,
Shields, aud Misses O'Connor and Katie
Mayhem. OF Miss O'Connor it must be
said that during her engagement this
season she has come fully up to the ex
pectations of the critics. Always taking
a leading part, she, by her personal ap-
pearanee and clever acting deservedly
has won no little share Of the honors.
We have seen "stars" who possessed
not one.half the dramatic talent or at
tractiveness Of this lady. Tonight
Foul Play, Naturalization from a we'll
known novel, will be presented for the
irst time in Memphis. The plot is most
interesting and exciting, and we look
for large audiences during the week.
GRAND OPERA HousE.-The matinee
yesterday afternoon and the perform
ance last night drew large audiences to
the Opera House. 1t was the unanimous
opinion of all visitors that Maggie
Mitchell as Little Barefoot" was ire
sistable and captivating; the personation
Of the character equalling, if posi-
BILE, her charming representation OF
" Fanchon." Both plays are full of good
things; they convey moral not to be
misunderstood by the dullest mind, and
are in happy contrast with those modern
dramas which appeal TO the prurient
taste of the populace. Mr.. Shewell as,
" Farmer Peace" displayed dramatic
talent OF high degree He is most at
complished actor, with proper concep-
ton of the part he undertakes to repre-
sent. Mr.. Harris aud members of the
stock company rendered the stars"
good support. Tonight Little Barefoot
will be repeated, and tomorrow evening,
on the occasion Of the Maggie Mitchell
benefit, that interesting play, the Pearl Of
Savoy, will attract fashionable au-
dience.
0LMPIc THEATER.-Manager Buch-
anan has fine company at his Wash
ington Street Varieties. The attractions
are Ledbetter, the man fly; Japanese
Tommy, Frank Jones, the comedian;
specially acts. new songs and dances by
the troupe. During the week number
Of new stars" will appear under the
able direction of Stage Manager White.
BRooM's OPERA HOUSE. This estab-
lishment has changed management, Mrs.
Broom having sold ont to Mr. Evans,
who is now the PROPRIETOR. Marsh Adams
remains as stage manager, and q new
troupe of performers has been engaged.

The banks were all closed yesterday,
and as a result checking to-day was more
active. The demand for money is about
the same, however aud the condition Of
the market fully as stringent as hereto
fore reported. Discounts are made only
TO favored customers, and then in small
amounts at the usual bank rates. An
easier situation is looked for soon, how
ever, as there is a prospect of an
opening Of Navigation in both the White
and Arkansas rivers, that will hiring
here thousands Of bales of cotton, and
by that time the blockade of freights on
Northern railroads will have been raised
and the large amount of the staple now
awaiting shipment here will go forward.
Exchange is in demand to day, and bank
transactions amounting TO $4,000 are
reported at &c discount. Cotton bills
are taken at DC discount on Eastern
points, and lc on New Orleans, and
checks on all points are sold at par.
Gold is ll2s in New York, and dealers
purchases here amounted to $4,000 at
iii. The demand for tax-paying scrips
are in demand, but no transactions re-
ported in stocks or bonds.
