20 Sunday Psrfnrmance.--nip NaH
Wrinkle ca Monday Night.

Apart from discourtesy, if not the nc
tual impolicy of shocking the religious
sentiment Of this community with thea.-
r:cal performances Oh Sunday night, and
business standpoint, /. i. 10. the part Of
wisdom to attempt the giving OF such
entertainments for the very simple fact
that there are not enough theater-goers
here (of the regardless f-Sunday sort) =,
to justify such performances, save now
and then n: exceptional times of leisure
among transient people temporarily
crowded into our streets uneasy Of the
aimlessness of homeless days and idle
nights. In short, the tbeater patrons
OF Carson are not so numerous rs that
any Infringement can expect to secure
house il the better one-haif stay away
from the show. as they are very sure to
d. from Sabbath evening performances.
This ascension is not the expression Of
any very deep religions sentiment, as a
general thing bu. there is a sense Of
improperly inseparable from such Z
procedure which ladies and gentlemen
OF the more circumspect class are not
willing to be guilty of. We doubt if any
one Of the many Sunday evening per
f0r,nances held here in the last eight or
ten years has proved paying inre~t-
ment TO tie parties giving them We
reg"rd II then as very sensible move
on the Part of the management Of the
company now occupying the Theater to
give over all notions Of a performance
this evening. Actors as well as people

the Seventh day of the week We take
much pleasure in Announcing that this
firc-purced company will continue their
engagement here for several nights If
the current week and that on to-
morrow. Monday. night. will be pre-
scented that marvellous combination Of
the comical and pathetic features Of
dramatic literature. Boucicault's drama
tized version Of Geotrey Crayon's " Rip
Van WiDkle." Here is play which,
ike certain sterling comedies and all Of
dramas, never fails to
command the presence and attention Of
all thsster- goeTs. Ii has been placed
upon the stage Of the Carson Theater
but very few times and has not been |
on the bills SO recently but that its rep
etition by this, the best company ever |
seen here, will be received with pleasur- !
able anticipations. and We have no
1oubt Of its meeting with very hearty |
Welcome from all sorts Of people. The
small bills contain very entertaining
'ynopsls of the piece, with cast, etc.
The nights entertainment will conclude

'hich he went there. We do not know
hat the offending article intended to
lsinuate, but We do know that we read
without once thinking that it meant to :
onvey any slur or inuendo against the
cid Company or any Of its agents or
Ulcers. 30 much for so far. Young
