JANE EYRE.


Charlotte Thompson will appear At the
Opera House on Monday evening next, IN
her celebrated inpersonation of "Jane
Eyre"
TIE Cincinnati Consmsreial thus speaks of
the play and Miss Thompson: We first see
her as the slighted, uncared for and hated
girl-hesrt- broken, and yet with pride and
courage sufficient to resent in singing an
swer the taunts Of her tormentors and the
insults heaped upon her.
She has one friend, an uncle, whom she
remembered on the anniversary of his birth
day, she paid sobbing tribute of respect to
his memory by falling on her knees and be-
seeching his portrait on ths WILL She is
surprised in the library ~ her .yranic
aunt who sends her to MI orphan asylum in
charge of cruel individual, namrd Bro, E.
hulst. :, 's y'.Hr %
Next we find poor Jane Eyre alnel
ieacher, EN- IlOye as y GOvrruc-s III
family Of not,ipman, where she is !, mo e
OF proprir, y and Aodes'y, never ovtrster
ing the limiis of her place. Lord Rochester
sees her Irth from the beginning, and
tries her by the most rigid tests. The bale
tal forms of her aunt and cousin appear
upon the scene, and invidiously strives to
drive the orphan away from the only home
where she had ever found happiness. She
determines to 60 and sgntn throws herself
upon the tender mercies Of cold world;
but Lord Rochester, who has been trying
her throughout, at last declares his pent-up
love, and there 10 an end to her troubles.
All these phases are portrayed with the
most beautiful grace and that unaffected
naturslness which gives Charlotte Thomp-
son such electric power over the crowds
that nightly throng to witness her truly
great and artistic impersonation.
. BLIND TOM. "} F.
On Saturday night the wonderful negro,
Blind Tom will give his unequalled per-
formance upon the piano, and he will
doubtless attract large audience.
THE wAsHBURN TROUPE.
E.s. Washburn and his excellent troupe
of specially artists, gave performance last
! evening in the Opera House, to very large
and delighted audience. It has been some
time since we have enjoyed performance
of the kind In Wilmington, and the audi
ence which filled more than two-thirds Of
the house, expressed in the frequent and
constant applause, how much they appreci-
ate the parts. The programme was long
one and replete with specialties of decided
merit. Each member of the company did
himself credit The characatures by
Miss Crayton, were instantly recognised
and secured deserved applause. But the
fcream of the entertainment were the banjo
lsolos and hits of James Mas. which elici-
ed tremendous applause and frequent en-
cores. It is doubtful If there is q finer spe-
! ciaity artist Of his kind in the business, and
he has won reputation here which will
noL be forgotten If he should return again.
The concluding burlette Of the perform
ance ny Mas and Gussie Crayton, drew
immense applause.
The troupe will give another performance
this evening, and those who desire to wit
ness really fine entertainment Of its kind,
will 20.
