OMAHA.

The entertainment supplied at Leigh the other night — the cash prooßpds of which are to furnish literary pabulum for the little ones attending Miss Warm's school — was a literal feast of enjoyment, appealing to the emotional, terpsichorean, as well as gastronomic sensibilities of a critical and large attendance. The several tableaux vivanta, more especially that of ' Jessie's Dream,' were excellently staged, the young and beautiful performers being most successful in their grace of pose, happy combination, and kindred association with the spirit of the attractive aoenes. The instrumental and vocal music was choice and well rendered, and if especial congratulations may be offered to either of the fair proficients, who, on this occasion, soothed the human breast with ' chords that vibrate sweetest pleasure,' the laurel may be justly tendered to Miss E. Fordham for her exqnisite rendering of never-dying Bobbie's sweet song, ' Annie Laurie ' and ' Coming Through the Rye.' As stage manager, &c., Mr B. Pearson was quite au fait at his multifarious duties, and to -Miss' Warm's elaboration of detail, untiring eneigy, and supervision of the artistic features of this very popular entertainment, the greater part of its eminent success was undoubtedly due.
