ADJUSTMENTS.


THE OPERA.
If any one doubted the sort of hit the
Daughter of the Regiment" has made,
he should have been present at the theatre
lobby last evening, and heard the cheerful
yell of standing room only that saluted
the ears of the late-comers, and those who
paid their dollar and preferred standing up
to missing the opera, received the full value
of their money. The performance leaped
way ahead of the two previous ones, which
had only been excellent rehearsals, and for
elegance, smoOthness and general perfection
it went along as merrily as II 1t had been
going for half a season. The most notice
able improvements were in the first
act, and in Mr.. Easton, whose big
rich voice all came back to MIN, and who
as of old StOrmed the hearts of his auditors
with his magnificent tones: his acting too
showed marked advancement, but we still
want that ballad introduced for his especial
benefit. The immense choruses-to many
the finest feature of the whole, told out
beautifully as eVer-only making one Slip
in the second act. Mr.. Spencer was just as
good as before; Miss Pratt was equally
charming in voice and manner: as for
Edith ClaWSOn-it is not eXaggerating to
say that of all her many roles-feW, if any,
will come NY to her La FigItd, which Is the
more surprising that she has not hitherto
been counted at her happiest in Il part re-
curing so much rolliclzing humOr. Manager
White had introduced a new movement in
the march which was of course encored-
none being more vociferous in applauding
than the people from the Post, OF whom
there were quite number present. The
Daughter is a great hit, and after seeing its
happy second rendition, we are almost pre-
pared to say the company's previous
achievements are in danger of being
eclipsed Stephens has reason to hold his
head very high after this his new achieve
ment We had intended, by the way, to
paw him a compliment Sunday morning as
being a conductor of rare plUck-but the
types were in Il conspiracy against MN and
wouldn't have it that way: they also omit
ted the statement, which we now relterate,
that the large, critical and appreciatlve
set of theatre goers who joined in one
accord in lauding his new achievement
gave him more pride aud pleasure than all
the dollars they could lay at his feet. In
the face of last nights verdict, the opera
can not by any means be shelVed, and it will
be put on one night more next week, after
the conference season.

THE GEORGIA MINsTRELs.
There are Georgia MINISTRIES and Georgia
Ministries. and II there is any difference
between them those seen at the Grand
opera house last evening were a little ahead
Of their fellow shows travelling under the
same name. They are at least all Of Billy
Kersauds' mouth ahead and that is saying a
good deal.
The company was fortunate in getting a
Georgia minstrel audience-aS far as 1t
weut-aud to this they owe a good part of
the applause. which was decidedly lavish.
Billy kerSauds and his mouth are both good
minstrels. each showing versatility that is
rather unusual. They created any amount
of fun and did the lions share i'll carrying
the show through.
The harmoniconist is really phenomenon
and there are other features about the show
that are commemorate.
