Frank Mayo commences q short engagement
ct this theater. He brings his own dramatic
company, who are especially engaged to pro-
duce his beautiful drama, "Davy Crockett, !"
in which he has made great success all over
the country. We understand that the drama
will be produced with new scenery and every
thing necessary for . successful run.
The following is cut from the Boston
Courier:
1.-THE entire drama is q new departure from
the conventional treatment of the life of the
frontier. Neither Indian nor white-skinned
swashbuckler makes his appearance in il from
first to last. The war who0p, the tomahawk,
the bowie. knife and the revolver are utterly
banished. It is the first application Of an
idyllic treatment to the drama Of the West,
and the result is an astonishing and complete
success. In Mr. Mayo's impersonation of the
leading character in his drama there is really
was tinged with an element Of romsnticism,
and his I" makeup" was as truthful as pho
tograph and as picturesque as painting.
The VARIETIES THEATER.-Mr. F. s. Chan

theater, his audiences being nightly very
large and appreciative. In the character Of
.Sam" he gives us q very excellent bit OF
comedy acting. marked by display Of good

approval Of the public. The play will con.
tinue during the week.
THE ST.. CHARLES THEATER.-The beauti-
ful drama of "Enoch Arden" Was repeated
last evening at this theater by Mr. Edwin
Adams, and We were pleased to see quite
large audience present.
This evening the effective and interesting
drama OF 1.-THE Dead Heart" will be pre-
scented for the benefit OF MI. Adams, ana we
sincerely hope the house will be crowded.
This gentleman is an actor of rare ability,
and we'll deserves the enviable rank be holds
in his profession.
The play chosen is very attractive and ex-
citing one. being based upon the trying
scenes Of the famous French revolution, and
tho character of Robert Landry is one of Mr.
Adams's kvorite parts, which he renders with
EXQUISITE skill and judgment He will soon
