former on the violin. Unsworth and Glover the

see the house as crowded as on the occasion Of the
opening performance, and the rest Of the Troupe
earnestly desire that those wishes may be fulfilled.
Our usual generous public will undoubtedly give
them a '' bumper"
THE performance at the Music Hall Satur-

:" Masks and Faces ballad singing by Miss Bur-
ton, a very amusing sketch entitled the Coming
Man." and a comical tragical, nonsensical sketch
introducing Sarony as Sarah Heartburn. This
evening there will be no programme. but on Satur-
day evening next May q, a double grand bill will
be presented, on the farewell appearance of the
