only stamping his name upon the age as an adaptor of vast intelh- genee, out in his masterly creation of aMephisto, gave to the stage a new character which has no counter part. Mr. Morrison is an actor of refinement and culture, who never stoops to mawkish melo-dramatic effect to emphasize his point, but handles his character with a natur. al consistency and practical concep- tion which charms the eye and ear, and thoroughly satisfies the mlnd. After having been identified with
 Faust for 15 years, Mr. Morrison announces this, his last visit to us in that wonderful play, for next season will see him in a new char acter, and one on which he builds great expectations. Faust will be presented at the opera house in this city, Wednesday, January 11th.

The Richards & Pringles-Ruseo $ Hollands big minstrel companies appeared at the opera house here Friday evening, and judging from the large attendance the saying "a little nonsense now and then IS rel ished by the wisest men, was fully demonstrated on this occasion. Dan Avery and Billy Kersands are the whole show. The specialtes intro dueed were very cre6itable. Some of the jokes were so old they had full grown boards, and when one of the comedians opened his mouth to "craek" joke, you could see moss splouting on his tongue. The Jap anese aerobats and Harry Fidler, the mimic, deserve special mention for their clever work.
