The Nel1S and Courier says Of a recent
performance of Fra DiavoIo'' in Charles.
ton: The merits Of the travesty have al
ready been 80 specially noted that it only
remains to say that the company OF anna.
tours who put the traVesty on the stage
have accomplished a very c|reditable piece
of work, and have found u happy reward
IL the ann in which their efforts have
been received by the Charleston public.
1t Is also to be hoped that they will turn
their attention at an early day to the pro-

doubtless meet with an equal share OF de-
served and tlattering success
