LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.

METROPOLITAN THEATKR.-M. B. Lsayitts
specially company appeared at the Metro
politan Theater last night before very large
audience. 1t sometimes happens that an
audience is drawn together by liberal an
nouncement, that is resolved, in advance. TO
be pleased-to have the full worth Of its
money in hearty laughter This appeared to
be TIE case last night. for applause began
cften before there was any reason for it. The
company is a large one, and the entertain
men. it affords varied. 1t has every reason
90 feel satisfaction at the reception go warmly
given it last night. There are some features
tf the programme that are exceedingly
good, notably the limitations and char
acter sketches by Miss Moore; the
remarkable ventriloquisl exhibition by Chalet,
the musical oddities by Field and Hsnson,
while the globe running by Mile Alphonse is
clever. The other members of the programme
were not especially noticeable. As whole
it was such performance as one would ex-
pect to find in successful music hall or va
riety theater in the large Eastern cities.
There were some lines used by some Of the
actors to which good taste would suggest
amendment. The company will without ques-
tion draw well here, and it IS entirely safe to
predict that its houses will show few vacant
seats, Tor it ia q rollicking" entertainment,
full of fun and exaggerated humor. The
only tedious thing about it was the closing
farce, which was altogether too long drawn
out the programme would be improved by
its omission, for it has little in it beyond
what Kelly ls good Irish chsracter) con-
tributes to it. matinee will be given this
afternoon, and another performance this
evening.
