New ORLEANS MINsTRELs.-The
celebrated New Orleans Minstrels
will give one of their choice entertain
ments at Reeds Opera House on Sat-
urday evening next january 10th.
|Ia This troupe islsaid to be the most
genteel aud entertaining Minstrel
troupe now before the public, giving
not only a fine Minstrel performance,
devoid Of objectionable features, but
alse .first-class musical concert. The
following notice from The Ithica Daily
journal, is one from among the hutid-
reds going to show that they sustain
q frst-elass reputation:
ssIt is needless to particularize when
speaking Of performance which, ta-
ken as a whole or in parts, is one Of so
high and uniform excellence. Maud
Stanley's singing is grands salmost sur
passing that of Miss Smith, the mag
nfficent sopraBo of the celebrat ed
Barnabee troupe. The jokes, dancing,
contortions, songs and speeches are
the very best specimens of their kind.
We can conscientiously recommend
tBRS AllnStfCl W NJ CtJO1
this kind of entertainments. Last
nights performance was one which
neither in word nor act, could offend
the most fastidio1s taste."
Remember. they appear in this vii
lage on Saturday evening for one
night only. Admission so cents.
Seats for sale at Brainerds' Drug Store.
SERIOUS INJURY.-On. Friday morn
ing as Judge Conant was passing
through the gate at his residence on
Prospect street, his feet suddenly slip
ped and be fell, striking his left hip
upon. the edge of the stone walk. He
was SO severely injured as to be unable
to walk, and was assisted to hisroom,
where he was confined to his bed for
several days. AT first it was thought
that there was a fracture of the hip
bone, but, fortunately, such is NOT the
case. The Judges injuries were SC
serious as to disable him from holding
court the present week. Judge Gid.
den was notified and came over an6
opened the court, and adjourned it til
next week Monday when 1t is hoped
: Judge Conant win again be able TO at
tend to business.
