At the opera house last night those who
were present enjoyed themselves highly.
The panoramic scenes, representing local.
tiles of historic interests in Ireland, were
remarkably fine, and were instructive as
we'll as entertaing. The two Dams"
brothers who had been separated since
child hood, create an almost uninterrupted
scene of confusion, which was incompara-
bly, ludicrous and laughter prvoking. The
twins loved two sisters, and when one Dan
would leabe and the other one appear
almost in an instant there was confusion
worse confounded. The poor girls didn't
know "tother from which," nor did either
of the Dams know the other was near for
long time, and these facts were the occa
sion of some of the most ludicrous mis-
takes imaginable. The dancing was ele.
CANT, the songs good. The performance
was excellent and one the most laughable
without coarseness. We have seen this sea-
