Henry Moses ShadbOat.

On Saturday Evening next the shad-
boat Pinafo.e will put in at this part.
1t comes to us highly spoken of by the
press as one of the most effective trav-
esters of the day. Of it the Philadel-
phia Ledger" says: An other of Mr..
Carncross' clever burlesques was
brought out last evening and proved a
complete success. The new piece is en-
titled Henry Moses shadboat Pima.
fore,' and. as the title indicates, it is
travesty of Suilivan's charming opera
which has made such sensation. The
music of the burlesque is nearly all ia
ken from the genuine "Pinafore' and
the acting is as completely absurd as
can be imagined. Hughey Dougherty
personates "Mr. Joseph Porterhouse,K X,
K. R." owner of the entire shad fleet;
Mr.. J. L. Carncross, "Captain Corko-
man." Loss of the shadboat; K. N. slo-
cum, "Dick Deadeye," a shad eater
James Quinn, Buttertub;" Eugene,
Josephine;" and Matt. Wheeler,
Hebe," the beautiful first cousin; and
there is a chorus of " fishermen, sail
ors, stowaway, sisters, cousins and
aunts.' The choruses are excellently
sung, and the words are very funny
The usual minstrel entertainment is
given in addition to the burlesque.

webster Promen ade Concert.

One Of the most pleasing entertain
ments that has taken place in this city
for some time, came off last evening at
Prof. A. T. Web,ter's dancing academy
The occasion was a complimentary CIV
en- by Mr.. Webster to his pupils. 1t
consisted of two parts, the first grand
promenade concert, and the latter part
devoted exclusively to dancing. The
promenade concert began at eight
O'Clock precisely and was success in
every particular. Between fifty and
sixty couple participated. The floor
managers C. N. Mccall, J. H. Walker,
Z. +. Fraim, n. Stradley, G. P. Finn,
w. Pyle, w. B. Haddock, D. c. Chal-
FAINT, J. S. Jones, G. Pyle, deserve par
ticular mention for the faithful mannel
which they performed their duties. Prof.
Webster, to whose management the
success of the affair was due, expressed
himself as being very much pleased
with the result of the venture, for 1t
was the first thing ofthe kind ever
given in Wilmington. The orchestra,
consisted OF twelve pieces under the
leadership of Prof. Richie, furnished
some excellent music.

ssThe Soldiers Trust"

A small audience assembled at the
Opera House last evening to witness
Mr.. Boniface as Corporal Antoine, in
"The Soldiers Trust" To say that
those who were present enjoyed an un
usually good performance is giving to
the company the smallest amount OF
the great credit due them. Like all
French plays, the plot is somewhat too
romantic and unreal, but it has the
merit of not being written solely to al
low the principal character chance
for display, but with equal care finish
ing each part down to the lowest. Mr..
Boniface as Corporal Antoine gave a
most remarkable piece Of acting. In the
first act of an amusing order, in the
second pathetic, and throughout the
third and fourth the most intelligent
and wonderful display Of pantomimic|
actions that we have ever witnessed.
He is wonderfully good, alike in humor
and pathos, and those who witnessed
his performance can justly claim an
advantage over their less fortunate
friends. Mr.. Graves as Peter Frochard,
makes such capital villain that we
almost gave to the part of Peter the ad
miration which belongs to Mr.. Graves
good acting. Mr.. Harrison as Rogue
bert, Mr.. Jordan as Tavernay, Mr..
Chapman as Picard, and Mr.. Franklin
as Pigoche, were all worthy supporters
OF so good leader. As much cannot
be said of Mr.. Boniface, Jr., as Lucien.
This young man seems altogether too
much of boy at his part not boys
simplicity, which would be quite ap-
propriate, but boys false ideas that
to be natural in your actions you must
be stilted and distant, and deslaim af-
ter the ridiculous manner Of a boy de-
livering Catiline's defiance. He has 8
good voice, but has no control over i
whatever. All the ladies character
were excellently taken.
The troupe appear tonight in "Davit
Garrick" and Pegothy and Micawber
and those who fail to attend will mis-
t treat. After seeing Mr.. Boniface al
Antoine, one cannot doubt what hi
: success will be with Pegothy, the re
a membrance of whose silent midnigh
g walks through London in search of hi
n erring child, always patient, hopefu
I and kind hearted, are treasured by tn
/. readers of Copperfeld as the finest o
I the great novelists efforts in that work
d which even he regarded as his master
Q piece.

WILMINGTON DEL,TUESDAY, MAY g. 1879.
temperance people of Wilmington, the

temperance people Of Wilmington, the
city where Mr.. butcher has done 80
much good, believe these Infamous lies.
Geo. M. butcher is an innocent man
and let them who are so eager to grasp
at these false reports take heed lest at
no distant day the tables may be turn
ed upon them and they will be made
to feel their position and have some
difficulty in extricating themselves
The articles published in the Philadel-
phia "Timss" stated that Mr.. butcher
had no friends in this city. To prove
such nonsense as that false, let me in
form you that at a meeting of our club,
held on Friday night, a resolution of
confidence in Mr.. butcher was unani-
mously adopted by rising vote. We
have facts that prove Mr.. butcher in
nocent Of everything but travelling in
Mrs. Watson's company, woman that
he believes to be reformed.
The reason he is not home to-day il
because he thinks himself prosecuted
by his own wife (of course We know
this to be false.) As soon as we can
reach Mr.. butcher we shall tell him the
truth of the matter and bring him
home to his family. And the time will
have ceme to make his defence. Tenn
perance people of Wilmington, remem'
Der that this man who the rum power
is striving to destroy is George M.Dutch.
