embraces comedians, specially artists,
dancers, and what will prove very al
tractive, Il large number OF beautiful
girls, every one selected aS beau ideal
ui the human form divine. The fol-
loving synopsis of the different acts
viii give some idea of what Will be
offered IN the wav of scenery:
In the first act is seen the blue grOttO.
Ii is magnificent. The stalIctites are
there and they glitter IN the calcium
hight very much as theydO N the FAIRY
land of which We read and dreamed
some years ago. Enter mOrtals and
falres, and the consequent butamusng
incOngruitles of speech and look and
action. In the second act Is introduced
bower of roses and a fowCry dell
The flowers are born and they take
shape III some of the lOveliest persons
OF the drama. The bower Is beautiful.
The roses and hOney-Suckles are glgan-
TIC floral specimens, but wlthal they
make up a very pretty landscape of
artificial nature" In the third act IL
shown ZOzO's fairy palace, and the par
tlcular apartment Is the nall of statues.
The Illusion Is perfect, and the fountain
that plays 70 the Imagination does not
play TO the eve or the ear. In this act
ZOzO, who is every inch a qecen OF the
stage, engages IN single combat with
Lorenzo. who Is all the other inches
heavy william, and the latter j. killed,
% the great relief OF those who can not
tolerate Williams OF such avOrdupOis to
run At large, even IN the land OF purely
ideal and sentimental. After tn comes
