ADJUSTMENTS.

MBMPHIsTHEATER.-Lott and her
excellent company open for a season
of three nights in Marsden's drama of
Musette tonight. The drama consists
Of three acts of the most frolicsome,
ludicrous and side-splitting witticisms
and capers, such as Lolita only can
present. To appreciate the play it
must be seen, but a brief synopsis of it
may assist the reader in keeping track
of the plot tonight during the whirl-
wind of excitement and merriment
hat is bound to be given Musette is
the daughter of an ex-Gypsy chief,
who is in the power of a mighty bad,
INSCRIPTIONS man. At home she is
the torment of her father and sister
through her mischievousness. A
family visits them, among whom is an
Oyergrown boy, who falls in love with
Musette. Her sister is in love with a
young lord, aud for this Is turned out
of the house by her father, and after a
vain appeal for her recall Musette fol-
lows her. They retire to a house
which the elder sisters lover,
whom she afterward marries,
prepares for them, and Musette
spends her time upsetting all
rules of propriety by indulging in
rough play with her boy sweetheart.
It is then discovered that the ex-
Gypsy chief is a very wealthy gentle-
man who ran away because he thought
he had killed a man, a relation of his
daughters husband. He finds hat
the man has recovered, but the reac
ton causes him TO lose his reason, and
some valuable papers of interest to his
son-in-law are lost. In the list "Mu-
settle" discovers a plot to deprive the
latter of his birthright, and produces
a father for a girl who has been foisted
upon him as his cousin and sharer Of
his fortune. Everything is righted by
the lively little "Musette, who re-
ceiyes the congratulations Of heI
friends. Mr.. Ed Marble assumes the
character Of "Musette's' two hundred
and fifty pound boy lover, and their
antics and dances together are de.
cidedly ludicrous and laughable. To,
morrow night Zip will be produced.

board of aldermen, requesting the
