One of the largest audiences aver as
sembled in the Academy of Music, was
present last night to witness the per-
formances of Madam Rentz's Female
Ministries. The programme consisted
of a variety of songs, sketches, dances
and gymnastic exercises, all of which
were well done, and were highly pleas
ant as well as entertaining. The open
ing exercises were of the order of min
strelsy and consisted of a number of
laughable jokes, all new, and several
excellent songs which were beautifully
sung. The music was first class. The
dancing was as good as we have ever
witnessed on the Academy stage. The
play of Forbidden Pleasures was a
burlesque which wa noted for the daZ-
cling splendor of the wardrobes and the
beautiful songs attendant upon its rem
dition. Omaha Bee.

A correspondent At Rosebud agency writes
under date of November 25th:
The problem of Indian freighting has
been solved. The plan inaugurated by
Major Pollock has proved most successfnl.
Of the one hundred pony wagons, loaded At
the river landing for the N6rst time on the
9th last, ninety-three have already delivered
at this agency their second loads. These
wagons are loaded, driven and managed by
Indians. About one-balf Of the OF
train, also managed BY Indians, has de-
livered it, freight at the agency. The Spot
ted Tail Indians employed in this work
have proved Themselves to be as faithful, in.
dustrious and reliable Is are their white
This new enterprise has, in
my opinion, done more to %civilize ard
" whitenize" these Indians than all other
Efforts which have been made in the same
