ADJUSTMENTS.

At the Clunie Opera-house this
evening the comedy drama "A Ro-
nance of Coon Hollow" or Life in
Old Tennessee" The piece is in its
fourth season, with great wealth Of
scenery, many mechanical effects and
a company represented to be good
throughout. The typical Southerner
is character interesting to the people
of the North, many of whom only
know him through the medium Of
stories and stage pictures, and the
women Of the South are particularly
interesting. We are assured that in
The Romance Of Coon Hollow they
are given a personation not overdrawn
or distorted. A steamboat race on the
Mississippi between the famous Rob-
ert Lee and Natchez, with the boats
lighted and under full steam, is shown
The old wood landing on the river,
where the colored girls and boys gather
at twilight to see the great boats as
they pass, is given with moonlight eff
fects and enhanced by troupe of
darky dancers and singers. The scene
of the burglary, a cotton compress in
operation, and the Jragedy of the cot
ton press give local color to the word
painting. A view from Coon Hol-
low at night with calcium and lime
light effects is new feature. Over
the dark hills the moon rises in a char
lot of silver. while the duel scene in
the famous mountain glen is said to
be very thrilling. Two quartets,
troupe of buck dancers, besides the
strong company, appear in this produc-
ton.
