MONTE CRIsTo was presented on the
boards of the Union Opera House

sized audience. The actiag of the prin-
cIpal characters was perfect. and drew
! torth numerous expressions of approval
from the spectators.
It IS very seldom that we demean
ourselves by noticing the weak and
puerlle eftuSIons which are supposed to
eInanate from the pen of the Fribsne's
courageous Ogden correspondent. But
one OF his items this morning is such a
| complete and monumental exaggera-
tlon, THAT we only mention it to unde-
/ celve any OF the few readers of the or
gan OF the slums, who unintentiona!ly
may nave by accident scanned the
chlIqlSh articles purporting 10 be writ
ten by Hero. " They would probably
prove an interesting study for children
who are laboring in the minor branches.
or teachers might use them to advan,
tage as charts, for they are about on
par with the simple stories found in
primary readers, which are carefully
declphered by the industrious beginner.

uons are only read "by accident"
Tor we cannot force ourselves to
oelieVe that any reasonable, SEN
sl0le person would voluntarily in
tlct upon himself the painful
agony and torture which would arise

IN his writings this morning this
lengthy gander gives a pretended
account OF burlesque robbery sup
posed to have taken place at the estab-
liShment OF ID. N. Perry, Jr. d. Co.. in

expected to furnish any truthful or
interesting items That scurvy article
In regard to Mr.. Peery most certainly
originated in the diseased brain and |
distorted Imagination OF some charitablv |
inclined friend, who had grown tired |
and weary of the usual Liberal slush: |
and copied items which appear daily in |
: Hero's" correspondence, for it cannot |
be inferred that Hero without any |
assistance, has intelligence enough /
TO write readable account OF /
anything that reaily-did tranSpire IN the /
Junction City. II is with mingled pity

nloyers. and he VIII be retired from IL

iently await tie time when Hero" Will
