ADJUSTMENTS.


There was q big house, composed of
the fashion, beauty and elite, at the Memphis
Theater last night to witness the Lingaids In
ia Hsfrqv. which was presented IN manner
A. once artistic and Interesting. We have
seldom seen an audience more delighted or
better pleased than was that one AT the inca
Ter last night Mrs. Alice Dunning Lingard,
in the character OF Camille" mover acted 20
better ad vaniage IN any role, and fully sus-
tained the merit Of the admiration which her
nrst appearance at the beginning of the week
arOus d. Miss Dickie Lingard, as "H elene,"
was the same graceful child OF estrsnged pa
rents as she was the previous evenings, and
sustained her part with admirable preei sion.
Horace Lingard in the character Of "Achiile
de kerOnere, +" did full Justice TO its every re-
Quii ement. To say that Led AStrGy last night
was brilliant success, would but family eX-
press the opinion or convey the impression
which its excellent rendition made on the
minds OF all present. Al the urgent request
OF the Undergoing people OF Memphis, Led
AStraV viii be presented again At the matines
this Afternoon, which viii, OF course, draw a
full house. Tonight the Lingards Will give
their last play, the NeU lHdgddieR, and we
hone 10 see another big house, as appreciative
as wss that OF last evening.
The Exposition.
Last night there was very large at
tendance at the Exposition, which hes become
more popular than has been antici pated by the
managers and the friends Of the Institution.
In fact The Exposition is becoming more at
tractiye every day, and from this on we do not
think there viii any cause 70 ask why people
country people present last night, and hope
they viii not let Il be their last visit 10 this
great temple Of art and science, where is dis
olayed such grand collection Of much that
interests, delights and lnstructs. Our county
friends should avail themselves Of this oppor-
tunity to enjoy themselves, and al the same
time behold one OF the most varied displays
OF mechanical skill and art ever made IL any
southern state. The present Memphis Expo
sition Is not only credit 10 the city, but an
nonOr 10 the enterprise OF the state and the
genius and skill Of It's people. The deep inter-
est aroused q behalf OF the Exposition Is not
confined 10 any one class, but extends % all
alike. Last evening was characterized by an
OF the fslrest and prettlest ladies'
and the most chivalrOus gentlemen OF the
city. Lovers Vale, with its cataract Of silver
water glisteuipg like diamond sprays under
the gsslight, the music OF the dashing stream,
the busy hum Of machinery, and the soft en-
taucing strains Of Arnold band, was not I'M
inviting, charming and delightful 10 those
who sought this beautiful locality for few
OF conversation uninterrupted by
the gay and brilliant thrOng in the main hall
ana along the galleries. Professor Arnold's
band last evening was again superlative 50 to
speak, and never played to better advantage
on 70 more appreciative persors. The music
Is one OF the attractions or the Exposition,
which, as above stated, j. daily growing more
IN popular favor and public attraction.
