THE PERFORMANCE
was ,nna,entlv greatly nioved by the audience

was apparently greatly enjoyed by the audience.
The "Conjugal Lesson was the opening piece,
and the characters were taken by Miss Jennie Cliff
ford and Mr. Charles Stanley, both Of whom came
over from Baltimore for the especial purpose and
returned again to play in Baltimore last evening.
While this piece was being performed the Thomp-
son troupe were enabled to dress for their parts,
and when the curtain arose the second time the
late beautiful bouquet-sellers were transformed
into equally as pretty creatures, who figured in
the circles of "Blue Boards friends or relatives.
Each member of the troupe was generously re-
ceived, and the feeling between actors and
audience was never before more cordial
CREDIT.
To Miss Thompson and her entire troupe is due,
above all Others the success Of yesterdays enter
tainment. With no ties Of kindred between them
and the Washington public they kindly volun-
teered their services for object that, while it
appealed to their hearts for sympathy, yet in no
stronger terms than do thousands of other chart
ties all over the land. With great Inconvenience
to themselves they gave performance that would
have netted them handsome sum, and also gave
their personal services for two hours for the same
siderable self-denial to assume. To Mr.. Samuel
Colville the obligIng and efficient manager Of
the troupe; to the Messrs. Ford, and to the at
taches of the theatre the credit is due for provid
ing gratuitous performance, the hOnOrsd object
Of which was charity.
