ADJUSTMENTS.

ALVIN JosLIN. The play which Mr..
Chas. l.. Davis presented Thursday
evening at the Thea ire under this title,
may be briefly described as a survival of
the rottenest. 1t is as close a copy of
Denman Thompson's play of Uncle
Josh Whitcomb sas it could well be,
though Davis is so far inferior to-
Thomson as an actor, and his piece,
wherever 1t differs, is so much more
trashy and nonsensical than the other,
that the two hardly ought to be mem
toned III the same connection. Every
act ends with knock-down, murder
or rescue, the old farmer of course
being the impossible hero in every IN
stance; the wit and humor of the play
are mainly confined to such expressions
as Il should blush to murmur I" ''Oyer
the reseYoir;" the week back and the
doctor pun, the yell of the farmer when
ne sits for the first time upon a cush-
Toned chair, with other gags which were
chestnutS when our first parents walked
in the garden of Eden. The gentlemen
playing the villain, the lawyer, the
comedian, and all the ladies were very
lamentable. The audience, which
damned the house to the extent OF a
thousand dollars, was almost as queer
as the performance. Not a score of
regular theatre goers were visible, and
it was easy TO see that the rural element,
attracted by the printing, the diamonds
and the street parade, made up the
great percentage of the gathering. The
orchestra is decidedly clever body and
includes some talented Soloists. Had
the thing been reversed-the must
clans put on the stage, and
the performers rammed down into
the orchestra-there would have
been a greater fitness throughout
Last night the orchestra again played
chsrmingly and the actors wretchedly,
to house of much smaller proportions,
but still too large for the merits of the
piece. The engagement concludes with
matinee to-day and performance to-
night.
SACRED CoHCERT.-Seatsf for the Sacred
Concert at the Walker Opera House TO-
morrow night are selling rapidly. and
the indications are that Mr.. Young
will be greeted by large as well as a
cultured audience. The closing re-
hearsal takes place tonight, at s O'Clock.
TIE THOMPSON COMPANY The re-
served sale commences at the Theatre
this morning at 10 O. clock for Monday
and Tuesdays performances of the
Mikado. There will doubtless be q rush
TO observe the contrast between the
home and foreign productions.

The Holiday al the Pen

Thanksgiving Day at the Penitem-

and Warden gave their consent to
Bishop Clawson's arranging an enter
tainment for the afternoon, and by
drumming among the inmates, and
securing the services of a number of
friends on the outside, programme of
twenty numbers, and one that for
variety and enjoyableness is not often
surpassed by paid entertainments, was
arranged and gone through with.
There are several clog dancers. banjo
performers, and gentlemen with min
Strel prOclivities at present among the

that they could have spent the day in
