The fflfewrnne submitted was a very good one y^g—at, aad the various items received *■* «ppr«4a_cn at the hands of the audience.

Looked at from Judge Crusoe's point of view, this difficult question appears very easy of solution, and the many quotations in what Artemus wonld call a ,: foring tang," which he co aptly introduced last Light, certainly reoirs to qualify him to speak «ith authority. Mr Wilson's song and dance " Jorpphu- ' »rangeblo?som" was very div riing, a;_ illustrative of poetry of mofcon. and the big for.r introduced a new ?pee_lity which dr-xr forth loud plaudits and a demand for a repetition, tbe farce of "Helen's Babies" concluded the entertaiment, which throughout was vry successful. To-night the Georgias will again apper in the same progr—__ae, and to-morrow their first change will be made."
