TEE ACADEMY OF Music 1t is source of
real pleasure that we chronicle the thorough
success of Mr.. Barry Sullivan in the chsrac-
ter of Richard III last night. With large
and very select house, and public expecta-
ton wrought up to its highest pitch, he had
something of an ordeal before him, and right
nobly did he meet it. From the first act to
the last his reading was not marred by single
blemish. Full, expressive and exact his lines
came forth, truly colored with the great
authors bold shading. The remarkable play
OF the facial muscles was in itself study.
If Mr.. Sullivan, owing to circumstances,
was not quite up to the ideal Richelieu, he
certainly leaped the heights in Richard. The
misshapen Duke of Gloster, vindictive and in
satiabe. found, in last nights performance OF
Mr.. Sullivan, an able and judicious portrayer.
In all the little byp play, the tinting of the full
picture, in the higher lights where venom and
passion have sway, his energy OF action stood
out in perfect relief. We must congratulate
success last night.
| Mr. Jas. F. Cathcart as Richmond, excelled
himself, and saving here and there evincing
a tendency towards the merely recitative, he
| was more than an ordinary earl
The Queen of Miss Louie Lord corrobo-
rated our former opinion that this lady has
talents of high histrlonic order, and In the
more tempestuous scenes she displays her
power with marked effect.
| The audience, which fully filed the house,
was one of the most select of the season, and
was merited testimonial to Mr.. Sullivan's
ability % the Richard of our stage to-day.
The VARIETIES THEATER.-Daly's elegant
and humorous society novelty of the "Big
Bonanza was given its final representation
last evening, and will this evening be re-
placed by the ever popular and entertaining
drama of divorce" The cast of this play
will be exceptionally strong, and the scenery
elegant and appropriate. When it is remem-
bered that the artists of this troupe were en-
gagged with an especial view to the produc-
ton of few admired dramas, and that
divorce is one of the principal Of
these, it may be reasonably expected that the
performance will be q very enjoyable one
There has been general desire to see this
troupe in another drama, and now an oppor-
tunity will be given our public to judge OF
their merits in very excellent and pleasing
play. Mr.. Dressed will give especial atten-
ton to the seen cry.
THE ST. CHARLES THEArER.-The thrilling
and exciting drama of " Life on the Border !"
was repeated last evening at this theater by
the Buffalo Bill and Texas Jack Combination
to very fair audience. The picturesque and
correct costuming. and the easy and natural
acting of the leading characters gave general
satisfaction, and the humorous portion of the
play was we'll treated by Messrs. Graham and
Irving In the petite comedy of "Thrice
Married." which preceded the play, Mile.
Morlachi Was seen in some very clever songs
and dances, all of which she rendered very
successfully. The same programme will be
repeated this evening, and we advise lovers OF
the sensational and picturesque in the drama,
to pay visit to the st. Charles during this
engagement
The GLOBE THEArER entertainment
at the Globe last night was witnessed by a
large audience whose appreciation manifested
Itself in enthusiastic applause. The pro:
gramme nightly offered is a large and varied
one, and includes the famous Scan Can, "
az it has never before been danced in this
CITY, 1t will be continued until further notice.
FAIR AT GRUNEwALD HALL.-The fair was
continued last night with unabated success;
in fact we think the gathering was larger than
on any previous evening. The restaurant
which is bountifully supplied with all the
delicacies of the season, and is presided over
with so much genuine hospitality by Mes
DANES Abraham, Marks, Gutheim, Weis, A.
Katz and Leucht, was one of the tavorite re-
sorts, and many pleasant parties gathered
therein during the evening. The grand
bazar at the Violet table, under charge Of
Mesdames A. Dreyfus and A. Schwartz, in
which there are five hundred beautiful prizes,
at fifty cents ticket will be drawn on Sun
day evening, and the prizes will be delivered
during the day on Monday.
Last evening there was considerable stil
about the elegant trumpet for which Missis
, sippi No 2 and Mechanics No. are contest
no wa
scented; but as Mechanics 6 had also large
number of hackers, the contest will probably
be one of the closest during the entertain
ment
The Gypsy Tents are really elegant retreats,
: and the little misses who have charge of them
ans wer the calls Of visitors for ice cream OF
fancy articles with all the grace OF their elder
+ sisters. We heard a rumor last night that 9
celebrated Gypsy Queen, lineal descendant
, of the famous Meg Merrilies' has just arrived
in the city, and will be at the fair on Saturday
evening to tell the fortunes and unravel al
, the mysterious love knots of all the young
ladies and gentlemen who may apply to her
: At the Floral Arbor, where Mrs M. L.
Navra and Mrs. s. Keiffer, with Misses Fran
els Levy, F. Wolf b. and S. Simon and Josie
Hilborn received all visitors, the evening was
animated and pleasant. Here tickets for the
elegant suit of clothes donated by that popu
lar merchant tailor, Mr. H. BEL, may W pun
chased. To-day lunch will be served, Oh
usual, but the Hall will not be open tonight
. Saturday evening the fair will be continued

vial pleasure should be on hand,
