An Incident of Christmas Life.

As CRITIC reporter was winding MS way
through the streets last night, he spied n
young man at the corner Of Ninth street and
Pennsylvania avenue holding on to lamp
post. Every once In u while the young man
was heard 10 cry out very mysteriously. The
reporter went up to the Aforesaid young man,
who occasionally occupies desk In the Treas
ury Department, and asked him what was the
matter. 81 have paid my fare on this car and
am going to ride In It II 1 have to stay hero
all night" "But," suggested THE CRITIC
man, "that IL not a street-car, 1t is lamp
post" "Hic, don't care. put my fare In
on this car or stay, hic, all night. "But YOU
will freeze II you stand here" eyes, and II
let go will fall In that mud" THE CRITIC,
finding that the young man had mistaken the
lamp-post for q street-car and had put his
ticket in the letter-box, concluded to let him
hold on to the post.

the Queen TO sec play. He had his coach
house at Abergeldie converted into theatre,
and the Queen drove thither from Balmoral.
The company playing at Edinburgh was
brought over to act "Tho Colonel" the Queen
having been induced to leave her retirement
IN order to see the genial American horo and
the satire on @sthoticlsm. She arrived at
Abergedie mt o o'clock, when she was mot and
party. Tho scene inside the extemporlzod
theatre was remarkably picturesque. The
Queens attendants and gillies carried torches,
while an enormous bonfire opposite tho en-
trance lighted MP the surrounding hills. The
last time that the Queen attended theatrical
performance WAS In 1850, at the Adelphi
Theatre. in London. in company with the

After an absence OF six years the famous
vokes family will open hero Mt the National
Theatre next week. Their popularity IL on the
increase. The New York Herald has the FOL
lowing in regard TO their engagement Mt that
metropolis: "The line OF ticket purchasers nj
the Union Square last evening stretched across
the sidewalk, the soul OF tho Spectator waxed
joyous within him, the late conner CRASHED his
teeth in despair, and all on account OF the
vokes family. The house was packed soon
inter the curtain went up, and there was but
one intermission TO the laughter In nearly
three full hours. The old-time favorItes were
as bright and funny as ever, rs well as n little
smarter, II possible, and Miss Bessie Samson
was most acceptable addition I'm the way OF
laughter, sprightliness, and something that
looked like flesh and blood, but bounced about
like India-rubber. The longer OF the two plays
worst; but any stupid thing-even n days
record of the Senate squabble-wouldb be laugh
able II put on the stage by tho Vokes family"
