MUSIC AND THE DRAMA.

HAGUE'6 MINsTRELS.
Yesterdays noon train brought to this city
Hague's British Minstrel Troupe, of which
much had been heard. In the afternoon the
company made street parade and their fine
appearance, united to their excellent music,
brought forth many expressions of unqualified
praise.
In the evening large audience was at
tracted to the vneatre and for two hours and a
half was entertained by performance that is
entitled to high rank. 1t was sush a minstrel
entertainment as any lady would enjoy. free
from coarseness, while the music and variety
business was equal, and, in some respects, su-
perior to anything Portland has enjoyed. The
vocalists are all men who not only possess fine
voices but manage them artisticalIy. Brydges
"Close to the Threshold" Reeds "We Never
Speak" and Campbell's "Jack's Come Home
Again. were especially praiseworthy. Mr..
Hawkins exhibited a pure soprano voice
which evidently delighted the audience great
ly. In the second part of the programme Mr..
Dart proved himself very light and graceful
female impersonator and dancer; the "World's 8
Five" created shouts of laughter; Heating and
Sands made rare music out of the staff of bells,
the bones, and other musical instruments; and
Prof. Wsllace's bird limitations were inimita-
BILE. Tonight the Bent Brothers, who were
with Gilmore, will give cornet duet.
LITTA.
A feature of the Li.ta Company's concert
on next Friday evening will be the presenta-
tion of an act from Gounoud's grand opera
"Faust," in full costumea and with adequate
scenic effect. The following will be the cast:
Siebel 80, 80, ,............ Miss Annie Z. Beere
Mephistopheles ........... -. Mr. julius Bsreghy
Faust. ...... Signor Ernesto BaldanZa
Those attending will therefore hear the COM
pany in both opera and concert on the same
evening. This will be Litta's farewell concert
tour. She was eagerly sought after by several
managers for opera or concert, but the prima
donna at length concluded to place herself un-
der the managerial guidance of Mr.. Henry l..
Slayton for third season. Next year Litta
returns to Europe.
Tickets will be ready at Stoekbridge's to-
morrow morning.

nearly every point being encored ty the audi

well received. The Cottonfed Bellies and
Silver Shower Cloggists were equal to any
thing in this line ever produced in Salem.
The discipline of the company was excellent,

THE AMERICAN

ton, invention and social custom, either
not dealt with at all by the former, or not

2nd Besasue, as Rev, DR.. BACON of
New Haven, says: 81 find these volumes
not editorial opinions, but fact not argu-
ments. but established results-not controv-
ersy nor commentary, but information
3rd. Becasue, as Hon. GEORGE BAN
CROFT, the Historian, says; SITS scientific
articles hit the happy medium between too
little teehnieality and too much of it. The
best authorities of England AMI the conti-

4th. Because, as JAMES PARTON, the
Historian. says: "It is the best work of the

within reach can hardly escape becoming
well informed persons
9th. Because, as the late BISHOP JAMES
said, 1T will be an authoritative text book
on all subjects-an epitome Of all human
knowledge
9th. Because, as REV. JAMES STRONG,
D. D., Editor of the "Cyclopsedia of Biblical
Literature" says: 3'The style is simple,
transparent, and chaste. and the informa-
tion is all of the most practical character"
7th. Because, as GEORGE WILLIAM CUR

AMERICAN CYoLoPAEDIA Is uuquestisnably
the best manual of general reference for an

three purchases, if asked, would advise
every American family to make; an English
Bible, good newspaper, and The Ameri-

10th. Because, as PROF. KINGSLEY, Of Yale
College, few weeks since, in reply to let

asked advice as to which Cyclopaedia would

by the bite Of vicious dog bslonging to the defend
ant There was question but that the dog was
vicious or cress, and that the defendant knew it..
He had the dog hitched to the axle of his

ths wagon for the dog was Cross. The plaintiff, a
boy II years DID, passed through the yard into the
stable and on his way ont, as he sayp, just grazed
by the wagon without noticing the dog until he
seized him by the arm, decorating ard tearing the
skin.
There was tsstmsny on the part of the defense
tending 10 show that the boy on his way out shook
the wheel of the wagon and stopped and patted the
dogs head; that IL he had passed directly from the
stable to the street he would have been far from
the wagon that the dog eou not have grabbed him,
but all this was denied by the plaintiff. Verdict for
the plaintiff for $3.50.
