House, in this place, that Il number Of nice
young men enacted parts Of the play not found
on the bills, viz the exhibition of their ''big and
oiuriierous feet, - the urotrusiOn of which, over
the seats Of the gallery, point directly at the
dience. These nice young men generally inter
lude the ''big foot" exhibition with shril whist
ling and stamping with sticks. They range
from ID TO 90 years of age, and are experts in
their business, showing that they have been well
taught in their art. Some of the big feet" on
hbnion a few evenings ago, We judge wound be
death to all creeping thing, were they so unfor-
tunate as to come in contact with them. The
exhibitors of the enormous feet in question, are
no doubt greatly admired by the ladies, conse-
quenty it is hoped that our worthy Chief Bur
gess will not again call on the police to interfere
with this part of the performance, as such
course would prevent our young bloOds from
putting their good breeding on exhibition.
