 GRAND OPERA HOUSE.
 Lucier's minstrels were greeted by 6 large audience last evening in their rem dering of popular songs and ballads. The costuming was costly and beautiful, and the progress of the entertainment bright and amusing throughout. The instru- mental music of MT. J. R. Lucier was es- pecially enjoyed by the audience, and the contortions of Master Willie Randall were amusing. The entertainment is divided into two parts, in the first of which the scenery represented royal drawing room of Charles X of France, and in the second comedy, "Nobody to Home; or Break ing up Housekeeping" was introduced. It is to be regretted that this was the only performance givex by this popular com- pany.
 PRoCToR's OPERA HOUSE.
 Margaret Mather again appeared on the boards last evening at this popular play house. Owing to the inclemency of the weather not as large an audience greeted her as on the previous evening. Her re- pertoire last evening consisted of the Lon don Lyceum theater success, ''Nance Old feld," comedy, and the classic Greek tragedy, "Medea." Although Miss Mather is deserving of much praise in her comedy portrayal, yet it must be acknowledged that her special forte is the tragic. Notice able features of "Medea" were the cos tunes, which were prepared with the ut most historical accuracy. MT. Otis Skin ner as Janso, the leader of the Areonauts. played his part to perfection. He is an artist of great superiority, and together with Miss Nather form the strong features of the company, which is we'll selected throughout. MT. H. A. Langdon, as Creon, king of Corinth, is also deserving of special mention, also Miss Josephine Eytinge, in the role of Crensa.
