The Muldoon Picnic Combination played
at Granite Hall last night, before good sized
and appreciative audience and gave general
satisfaction. The performance was opened
BY Sam Weston, who skillfully executed
several of the popular airs of the day on va
rious musical instruments. Williams and
Sullivan, in their Hilernian ecentricities and
dances, were very amusing, and the young
artists, Reynolds and Arnold danced and sang
IN very creditable manner. The feature OF
the evening was the comedy, which has had
great success at the Howard Athen@um, Bos-
ton, during the past year, entitled "Muldoon
ficnic." The parts were all well acted. and
Kept the audience convulsed with laughter
until its close.

Hearts that queen might treasure.
DO not live in vain,

From lips that never meanIy feign

When the hand of friendship keeps mine own
In warm earsszing bond.
And my name is breathed in tender tone
