Of the Oates Comic Opera Troupe, which
appears bere next week, says:
"l.ast evening there was large audi.
ence assembled al the Opera House 10
witness Lecocq's comic opera OF La File
de Madame Angot.' The character Of
Clairelte was taken by Mrs. Oates, and
her rendition Of the part IS the bes, we
have ever witnessed, both in the singing
and the acting. Mr.. Laurent as Angie
Pitou was fair, and his singing was much
better than on Monday evening. The
singing Of the chorus was good, especially
the male voice. in the conspirators' scene.
The costumes were the finest that have
been worn on the Opera House stage for
a long time, and, in fact, we have never
seen plays better mounted than those Of
this company. This evening CIRCLE
GIroaa' will be presented again, and We
expect to see crowded house."
The sale OF seats for tho engagement
will commence at the Opera House on
Friday morning at 8 o'clock. We would
advise all interested to be on hand early.

Nj. Smlth's poultry yard, on Goth street.
Al 4 o'clock that estimGble gentleman,
while making preparations 10 attend
market, was surprised 10 sec whole
legions Of turkeys COME Hooking into the
yard. AT 4:20 the audience, including
some Of the best and fattest turkeys In
the land, had assembled. Mr.. Jones
yellow turkey took the ros,rutn, an in
yerted slop bucket, and gobbled the meet.
Ing 10 order. Alter q low, mourniul
hymn by hen choir, the chairman arose
and stated the object Of The meeting. He
then announced Mr.. G. 0bler, who took
the bucket, which he was so soon deS.
tined 10 kick, and proceeded to address
the audience. He said:
"Ffiends and fellow Robblers: We
have come together In mass meeting in a
common cause on this occasion. A few
weeks ago that heartless tyrani, Gov.
Mathews, Issued our death warrant. In
aiew hours the fate Of some Of the nUblest
and latest gobblers within the sound Of
my voice will he cold In death, and their
remains, embalmed In oyster sauce, will
lie on q thousand tables in the land.

But here the orators emotions over
came him and he wRs compelled 10 hop
down of the bucket and hide his head
under Ilis wing 10 conceal his emotions.
Brief remarks were made by some Of
the more prominent and influential tur-
keys in The community, after which Mr..
Browns grey gobbler, whose brother
was killed last year and his remains cru
ely rallied oil al n saloon, offered the
following resolutions:
"WHEREAs, For many years the bar.
bOurous practice Of celebrating Thanks.
giving has been kept up by the people Of
America at our expense; and
"WHFREAs, Millions Of our number
have had their neoks wrung, and have
been eaten on that day by those soulleSs
cannibals, our owners; therefore, be it
ReSOlxd, That each Of us, Just before
our heads are cut oil, Il cut of they must
be, do swallow an ounce Of nitro glycer.

Resoireti, That II the usual number Of
our noble nation should fall a prey
to Thanksgiving this year, those who
are left do restrain from strutting or
gobbling for elk months to come, rs u
mark Of respect to the fallen braves.
The resolutions we're unanimously
adopted, after which the convention sadly
adjourned; and Mr.. Smith turned over il
his warm bed, rubbed his eyes In dazed
sort OF way, and woke up to find that he
had been dreaming.
