ACADEMY OF MrsIc.-During the week the Lin
CARDS have held possession Of the boards an
have given to us in an elegant and superb style
the fashionable and society plays Of "Let
Astray," "Mons. Alphonse," Gle sphynx" ant
"David Garrick." In all Of these Miss Alice
Dunning, perhaps the most beautiful and gor
geous lady who ever appeared on any stage, rep
resented the leading character, and in style that
reflected upon herself credit both as an actress Of
merit and as lady who seemed to appreciate
fully the difficult task she had to perform.
The Lingard Combination is complete in every
particular and embraces talent Of high order.
In Messrs. Leidelbreck and Cotton there is EVIL
dent dramatic talent, and IN acting grace and
finish that betoken the accomplished artist. OF
Miss Dickie Lingard we can say that she is gay,
lively and frolcsome, and sprightly little
actress, whose personal charms added to her
natural genius make her pet wherever she is
seen. Mr.. Linsard's sketches and his ''Muddle-
brain" are excellent, and for eccentric character
impersona tons he has but few equals.
On Monday will commence the first night OF
a series OF entertainments for the benefit Of the
Ladies Relief Association. On this occasion the
regular dramatic company OF the Academy will
make their appearance. Among the list OF men,
bers we recognize some familiar names, who
have hosts OF friends in New Orleans. First is
Nose Fiske, the joyial and the funny. Every
body knows him and everybody likes him. AS
comedian, he has few superiorJ. He introduces
to us this season his daughter, Miss Mar in Fiske.
who is said to be an accomplished vocalist, as
well as charming soubrette.
Mr.. Bidwcll, we learn, has also secured the SER
vices of Mr.. s eidebreck as leading man, now of
produced 30 favorable an impression here at the
Varieties, as one Of the Roses, i'll th,pay of that
name, will be the leading lady. With such an
array of talent in the principal people there can
DO no doubt OF the general excellence OF Mana
ger Bidwelrs company for this season.
The GLOBE THEATRE This popular place of
amusement continues to hold its own, and in
point Of attractions is not behind any Of its SEN
iOrs. The feature Of the week was the perform.
anceby the Shakespeare Club of the play of erich
eleiu,' with G. Il. Braughn, Esq, in the title role
and Miss Irene Worrell as Julie.
Mr.. Braughn has appeared so often in the
character and his admirable rendition of the part
is 30 familiar to the public that criticism on our
part Is unnecessary. or Miss Worrells Julie, we
were agreeably surprised to find that che posses
.lc fnVn tx,pp
pect, although il was her first appearance in this
character she exhibited an intelligent apprecia-
ton OF tho part, and brought out all the charm
and beauty that the author has 30 clevery given
it. Miss Worrelrs splendid physique, beautiful
face and exquisite dressing gave rare attrac-
ton to the play, and she fully impressed the
audience that she could excel in the higher of |
dramas as well as reign brilliant star IN bur-
esque. Next week there will be change Of |
programme when the Worrell sisters with Mr. |
Y. b. Cahill will present the sparkling burlesque
)f SOnnambula."
So successful has the enga cement OF the Wor-
rell Sisters proved that Manager Kittredge has
prevailed upon them to extend their engagement |
,wo weeks longer than at first contemplated.
We shall therefore have them with US until the |
middle Of November.
