truly wonderful and astonishing. Where
each did so well flor who could do better,
as the real Scotch character was by them
gracefully interpreted, it il difficult 10
say which Of these charming donseux
won the palm. Then came the Grand
Pas Sfyriersne of Taglioni; this was
danced by Mics Nettie Jones, Master
Lee Dixon, Master Jackson and sis
ter. IL was all that could be
claimed even by professionals,
and every one Of the twelve
parts was rendered with admirable pre-
clslOn. Miss Nettie Jones sustained
herself as IN the Grand Fairy Dance of
venice, with remarkable self possession,
making her steps faultlessly and az de-

general admiration, while Masters
Dixon and Jackson acquitted them

Mueller's excellence as 8 teacher in his
art, and like all Of the preceding dances,
il was loudly C.,cored. This closed the

brilliant details of which we would like

lateness of the hour permit. Enough to
say that the ballet exhibition of Profess
scr Mueller last night was one of
the truly magnificent terpsichor-

genius have achieved for the enter
tainment of our citizens. At least eight
thousand persons were present at the
Exposition last night, and the occasion
was alike proud ovation to Prof. Muel- |

gy and judicious efforts Of the Exposi- |
ton managers in having afforded to the |
public an entertainment which in every
respect challenged the admiration |
Of all, and aroused such gen.
eral interest throughout the land. |
The Exposition will positively close to-

fects and gorgeous costumes, particulars /
Of which will be found in the amuse-
ment column.
