CAL WAoNER.-In spite OF the VIA
ther, there was q good house at Twins
} Hall, last night, to Welcome the return
,of Cal Wagner and his troupe Of min
strels. The performance was more es-
sentially negro than any that has been
-'given here. The actors are not simply
white men blacked, but they are negro
'Ipersonators. Wagner is the central
| figure of the group, and he holds tie
position honestly. He is q magnificent
) delienator Of negro character. Wagner's
support is good. Sam Price is capital
fInegro, especially in his get-up, and pos
lsibly the best of the crowd in the man
t,ner of his speech. The song and dance
by Messrs. Green and Saddler was q
: good performance. The statue clog, by
: the same, WAS as pleasing as it was new
ito this community. Ben Brown ap-
peared in bis champion jig and was
heartily encored. he is nimble foot,
> and ''pApulates the poetry of motion
! wi, u S4t skill and favor. Tonight
