Two funny pleces were upon the progrimme, and m each of them that funniest of funny fellows, Mr. George L, Fox, was the principal attraction. Such betng the case, it but remains to be sald that the sport was unconfined, Fox was a# funny and mirta- provoking as ever. tmumitaple and antics he pluuged the audience iatoa Mt of hearty laughter and kept them in that state during the entire performance. Was nob this fun enough for one night? Certainly not, ior Aig support was so poor and many of the actors in tho diiferent pieces and acted thelr parts so wretchedly that the audience, despite their eiforts to the contrary, were frequently comipetled to give vent to thelr feclings in the most Immoderate laughter. Upon the whole, however, Mr, Fox last oe demonstrated very orerty apd to the satisiaction of all present that fis long famil- farity with “Humpty Dumpty” aud “Diccory Dock"? in no wise unfitted him for comedy. Those who Dave laughed and roared at him in pantomime will laugh the more at nim in comedy. As Paul Pry ho was last evening excessively mirth provoking, gud made every point tell; but as Jacques Stroy, m “Robert Macaire,”” he actusily made his auditors laugh until luugbing became almost paintul. His play of features in both pieces. was some- thi that must needs be seen to be appreciated. Of the other characters in elther of the pieces it ts almost needless to speak, except to say that almost every one of them might have beon tinproved upon. ‘The present-rowmd of comedy characters by Mr. Fox 1g only to Ml up the gap between now and the pro- duction of the new pantomime, which ty in active preparation, and which will be presented at an carly day. Yetthey are none the less worth witnessing on that account, and wili doubtless crowd the house until the contemplated new “dumb show”? is made ready for the eager public.

A sea of man faces gazed with delight upon the jy ‘erm able feats of comleaiity ana the choice and pomte selections of scenery, while ever and anon rounds of approbation greeied the well directed puns and satire that abounded througiout the plece. ‘Me tricks were excellent, most of them being of an original aud highly humorous character, Clown, VPantaloon, Mariequin and Columbine did ther business admirably, and were frequently encouraged by manifestations of approval, Being of an entirely local description the pantomime was heartily appreciated. ‘The last scene, representing the fignt of Neptune, or the “Bathing Nalads,”’ was received with a reguar storm of applause, being unique, haudsome and very beautifnl in design, and the curtain fell slowly upon “Buck, Buck,” with the cordial endorsement of the entire audience, For a first night's periormance the pantomime passed off very smoothly and its career wilt doubiess be successful, Granp OrEta Ho —The special attraction at this house last night was, first, the neat and pleas. ing littie comeuy, In three acts, by Rovertson, en- tied, ‘David Garrick,” adapted trom the French of “Sulllvan,” of Irian descent, the French original of the piece being founded on a German dramatization of a pretended incident in Garrick’s life; so it ought tobe good. Mr. G. C. Boniface, as Garrick, is good, and the same may be said of Mr. Simon Ingot, as done by Mr. Liealey; of Mra. Bonitace, as Ada lugot, and of Davidge, Jr., 28 Squire Chivy, The drunken actor, by Boniface, is, in fact, hardly surpassed by the drunken Squire of Davidge, The play went oi very nicely, ther sad DYInclps (Robert But- and there was a call before the cartain of the two princtpal actors at the close.

SVEINWAY HALL—Mabame DE Lussan’a Con ceRrT.—The popularity of this excellent artiste waa fully shown last night by the large and enthusiastic andience which, in spite of the rain, attended her annual concert atthe above hall, The programmo comprised selections from Verdi, Rossini, Herold, Haydn, Wallace and Chopin, and the fair beneficiary ‘Was assisted by a promising young pupil of hers, Miss Emme Terry; Mr. C. Fritsch, tenor; Mr. E. Gtibert, baritone; Mr. Henrl Korvalskt, pianist; Mr. G. W. Morgan, organist; Mr. A. F, Toutmin, harpist, and M ©. Alord, violoucellist. Mme. De Lussan sang @ duet from “Othello,” with Miss Terry, with all her well known fire and faultiess execution, and # song, with violoncello, pans and organ accompaniments, composed by orvalski—a very effective picce and a novelty in its arraugement in our concert halla. The princt- pal feature of the concert, however, was the finished aud graceful playing of the clever young pianist, Korvalskl, in @ “Trovatore”’ fantasia of his own and one of Chopin’s inimitable impromptus, We particularly admire the perfect ease and tmish of his execution and the keen appreciation of the spirit of the works which he essays, Without dis- playing any of the nervous power and energy of the Liszt school he has a charming style of his own, somewhat resembling that of Ritter. The ee refused to respond to the masteriy touch of Morgan in the overture to “Zampa.’’ and he was compelled to abandon the task. Miss Anne Mehlig is the next Claimant to public patronage at tuis ball this week, As ® pianist she has no supe. rior,in this country, The coucert of Mme. De Lussan see with (ie sparkling trio finale from “1 Due Fos¢ari,”” which was given in unexceptionable style. Bryan's MINSTKRLS.—For en evening of quiet, pleasant, wild, uproarious merriment; for ail these, singly or conjointiy; for exquisite enjoyment, be- gotten of the deiicious harmony of the most delight- ful singing; for rollicking fun, inspired by the droll- est comicality of wit and durmor and every imaginable whimsioality of, mirth-provoking con- ceits, there ts no piace like Bryant's Minatrela. Last evening, ag for every night nearly during the thir- teon years of the performances in this city of this world-renowned troupe, and as will continue to be the case as jong a8 they keep up their present unapproached programme of entertainment, the Bouse was crowded to its utmoss capa- city, They have got here six of the best solo singers in the country—Dempster, Kassel), Grier, Brandisi, Dwyer and Rockefeller. For wealth of melody they are unsurpassed, while for grotesque bumor of gong Dan Bryant and Unsworth have no pecrs. But of course the great gem of the evenin was “Shoo, Fly; Don’t Bodaer Me,"’ as sung and danced by the inimitable Dan and irresistibie Dave Reed. ‘This ts one of those pieces af Wthiopian chac- acterization that canuot be described, and after being so long in the zeuith of its glorious success we shail not attempt it, There ig Little Mac in bis “Esecnce of Oid Virginia,” and as the monkey tn that comical petite drama, ‘Daniel in the Bryant's Den.” He is something more than astonishing; indescribably amusing. The Gendarmes by Dan Bryant and Griffin is next on the |: Eugene’s ‘“Oomtng from the Matinee,” and Uni worth’s speech ou ‘Resumption of Specie Pay- ments,’ were in their usual happiest vein. The @asence of humor and good acting showed itself im the rapid sequence of singing, dancing and the a drama, including in the latter “The Frightened Family,” ‘‘Squire for a Day,” and ‘True Lover Never vid Kun Smooth.” It was an evening of splendid entertainment—vartable, rich, rare, racy and describabie. Sam FRaNcIsco Minsrrers.—“The trouble com- menced at cight o’clock” last pigitt at the San Fran- cisco Minstrels; that 1s to say, at that hour the audi- ence began to find it diMcult to find seats in the comfortable suditorium, At that hour, too, “the trouble” commenced with the audience, inasmuch as the curtain rose upon the twelve biacked men who for some years past have held a high place in the popular favor as the exponents of negro minstrelsy. The opening part of the performance was excellent, introducing quartet end also the soloists of the company. Among the latter Mr. D. 8. Wambold mast not be forgotten, who sang a very beautiful ballad, “Come, Sit by My side, Darling,” with tuat ut effec- tiveness which has made his namo a byword among the frequenters of minstrel ‘shows’ in this city.
