ADJUSTMENTS

DiBQC, presented 10 o 1ull mousse aI the Safle
ties, and was received as on Monday night.
The vigorous action, highly exciting effects
and deep pathos, serve to enchain the interest
OF the spectator. The events of the late con
test are brought vlvidly forward, and the
touching episodes Of war, with its pictures Of
want, heroism and desperation, displayed az
by master hand.
Mr. Theo Hamilton's personation OF Stone.
. wall was remarkable, not only as to the close
similarity to the great original, but as to the
marked ability with which the part was acted.
Col. Bigh, as represented by Mr.. E. F. Thorne
was neat bit of Characterization. Warm
and impassoned, he carried with him, against
even the feelings of the audience, strong
sentiment of regard, and in many places fairly
out did his previous efforts.
Miss Laura Don, as Isabel Lamar, was the
center Of attraction. Her success at reaching
the highest necessities Of the very diff cult part
made her representation Of the character Pc
culiarly attractive. Mrs. Carhart filled up
the picture in Honor McQuade and as before
earned our respect for her careful and correct
STYLE The orchestra deservesssp COM
mendation for their truly artistic performance
Of the choice selections played.
ACADEMY OF MUsIc.-A fair audience as
sembled within the Academic of Music last
Il
pantomime ''Humpty Dumpty Abroad The
piece is characterized with numerous incidents
Of the most ludicrous character, and abounds
in situations which provoke the greatest
mirth.
There is no gainsaying it, George L. Fox is
inimitable as pantomimic clown, and he is
deserving special commentator as the speech
less clown in the " Humpty Dumpty Abroad. .
The specialties with which the piece is inter-
spersed are pleasing features, and lent to it
additional attraction.
ST. CHARLES THEArEE. is no dis.
count on Little, Nell. She is certainly cap
tivating and talented little actress, and we
| were pleased to see full house last night at
her second appearance this season. Her re-
ception was most hearty, and was character
lied by many evidences OF appreciation and
admiration.
The new play "No Name" was written ex-
pressly for Little Nell, and introduces her in
four characters : Ellinor Ray, in search of 3
mother and name Budd Iilsly, lad about
town; Wilhelmina Frochlich Dunkelheimer,
a young lady from Holland: Sir Charles Dash
ingtOn, the glass of fashion and the mould OF
form, by Jove.
The style Of Little Nell il her acting is not
unlike that Of Lolita, and yet there is about it
a charm and peculiarly that is entirely her
own.
"No Name will be repeated tonight, and
We predict full house.
S;AIETs THEATIE.-Since the arrival OF the
several new stars this little theater has been
crowded nightly by the lovers Of fun and
frolic. The performance improves each night,
and Mr.. Flynne, the proprietor, seems never
tired Of bringing forward new artists and the
boc Al II q r,1o Mt time On
to the Gaiety Theatre, corner Baronne and
Common Streets
OPP FELLOWS HAL1.-The Metiodis: Ep;s-
copul Fair.-The crowd last night was consid-
erably increased over that of the night pre-
yious The brilliant and attractive decorations,
the witching graces of the fairy elves as they
fitted hither and thither, and the beautiful
display Of the many costly presents, made the
scene charming. Bright eyes shone out from
dark sybils' caves, laughing faces bewitched
passers-by from innocent looking post offices,
and luscious repasts tempted the hungry when
served by the dainty hands Of some OF our
Southern sweetest bellies.
In the concert room the rich strains OF meIo-
dious voices enchanted the willing listener,
and perforce one was compelled to forgo every
thing to inger near this temple OF sweet
sounds. The returning boards at the differ
ent tables report that for the silver pitcher Mr.
Mari is eight votes ahead of General Ogden
and Gov. Penn, and in the contest for the flag
the BULLETIN leads three.
In the voting for the silk banner, Company
f, of Crescent Regiment, is 20 votes ahead.
Next on the list is Company G, Of Crescent
Regiment, followed closely by Company G. of
Crescent Regiment. The contes! is becoming
very exciting.
Those who desire to enjoy delightful
evening, and see one of the most exquisite
displays witnessed here for many day. should
not fail to drop in at Odd Fellows Hall to-
night.
A ISLANDER on BARRIERS A dyspeptic wag,
who shayes on Heneracker street (three tickets
for quarter), describes his barberas follows ::
He is always in q state of Precipitation and
is greasy he wears paper collar; his fingers
are pudgy and his nails are in mourning, evil

ships away, pinching your ears, nipping your

to which you reply, "No" Two octaves

He draws his fingers in q pot Of axle grease.
scented with musk and age, and before you
can divine his fearful intent, snlears it all
over your head and rubs it in. until you look
like an animated gun swab. Then he showers
weak bay rum down your back and over your
shirt, ingeniously arranges your locks in
way that would make Socrates look like
thunder-blasted idiot, and collects his stipend
with on air Of virtuous condescension. As
you put your hat on you are assaulted by
small boy with large brush, who punches
YOU in the abdomen with the straw end raps
your ribs with the handle, and conducts his
movements with such mastery strategy that
YOU must fall over him or pitiably bride him
with ten cents to let you out.
Now, we wish it distinctly understood that
our tonsorial artist has no perfumery except
"attar of roses " and "the balm OF Berga-
mont" and never uses either cod liver oil or
grease Richmond Wing.
