ADJUSTMENTS.

GAYErY THFATRE.-There was scarcely stand
ing room to be had at this theatre last night, sc
| large was the audience in attendance.
Inc many new acts put upon the boards by the
manager, Mr. White, gave general satisfaction,
and each and every performer was repeatedly
encored. Every one wGs taken perfectly abacli
by the wonderful Baby Mcdonald. in her beau.i-
ful songs and dances. To say the least she is a
perfect child of grace and has won for herself q
lasting name in New Orleans. The Gayety will
this eek have several new stars, both male and
female.
TEE ACADEMY OF Music There was an ap-
preciative audience at the Academy last evening
to enjoy the entertainment offered and to pass
an hour under the magical wand Of Miss Alice
DunnDg.
In ''David Garrick'' the company showed with
effect their varied characteristics, and, although
the comedy is rather above the reach Of ordinary
troupes, the Academy company fairly outdid
themselves in their careful rendition Of their
several parts. Those who desire to enjoy q
pleasant evening should drop in at the Academy.
GLOBE THEATRE.-This cosy place of resort
was last evening the recipient Of quite an ovation
from its many friends. ''rhe Brigands," those
terrific fellows, won the plaudits Of the crowd by
their clever and finished acting, and from the
opening to the close they merited the cheers they
received. Tho Byne Brothers OF course brought
down the house. Those who desire to spend
delightful evening should visit the Globe.

The proposition to assess a tax cf ten per
cent per ton on all ice cut from our rivers
and streams seems about as reasonable as it
would be to tax wood fifty cents per cord, or
any and al! farm products thirty three per
cent on cost Of production. Ice men seem
to think the proposed tax rather "too thin"
to bear much weight with our law makers at
present.
Only two liquor cases have been before the
municipal court during the past few weeks
one search and seizure, fined fifty dollars and
cost, and the other single sale, fined thirty
dollars ard cost-both appealed. 1t is evil
dent the sale is confined to close quarters and
conducted, if at all, in the most secret man
ner. None but tie most obdurate will run
the hazard Of TIE law.
TIE valent ne nuisance has about run itself
out for the present year, and will we trust
be honored more in the breach than in the OBJ
servance. These silly missves are almost
entirely confined Of late years to the gratfica-
ton OF the lowest and sometimes yilest i'm
pulses Of the human heart.
