They appear in cabinet with faces of full size but bodies and limbs in miniature. They sing songs and perform wonderful dances that astonish the audience. Seats at 257 Chapel street.
 GEORGE 0. MILN
 It is sc thoroughly established in the minds of the general public that no one but a Booth or 8 Barrett can do justice to the character of 'tRichelieu" that it is not sur prising that but a small audience was pres. ent at Carlls Opera House last evening, when Mir. George 0. Miln appeared in this cele brated part. Even the fact that Mir. MiIr was reverend not long ago and preached ir Mt. Carmel, oue of our neighboring towns failed to act as an attraction. If any were present out of curiosity they were agreeably surprised, and this evening, when MT. Milr will appear as Macbeth" |" Ca minister ir tights" may prove 8 better card when fl is known that he is talented and able actor. His "Richelieu" last even ing was an excellent piece of work, and in many points was superior. His voice is somewhat peculiar and occasionally aImos too low and soft, and his makeup and action are those of younger and more hale man than is usually represented in this character. At times his delivery was forci ble and grand, and called forth hearty applause. We cannot doubt that Mir. Miln's 'Richelieu" will have many admirers, and, considering the little experience he has had, we look upon him as one likely to attain fame. The support was fair generally and admirable in Miss Lettie Allen, she appear ing as Julie de Mortimer and making the part very attractive with her pretty face and figure. This afternoon MT. Miln will appear @ Hamlet" and this evening ss '.Macbeth." "
