Chickering Hall last night presented an *extraor- din scene on the occasion of the opening sale of the pictures belonging to Mr. Jobu Taylor Johnston, The event had been looked tor. Ward to with great interest by every one con- nected even remotery with art. It was not, therefore, to be wondered ut that the spacious auditorium of the their wealth and patronage of the arts, lucky people who had secured seats were as usual a little slow in appearing in the theatre and as a re- sult there waz some delay in beginning the sale, Grad- uaily the seats w filled and the people, becoming itapatient, notified their discontent by a stamping of feet that soon brought the auctioneer, Mr. Somerville, on the platiorm, GINNING BUSINESS. The lights were turned up, and alter a short state- ment by the auctioneer of the conditions upon which the sale was to be made—which shortly may be stated as cush, hard cash—the proceedings of the evening were begun by the otering of a small picture, by | Henry Inman, trom the collection of Charles M.

A thoroughly appreciative audience witnessed Mr, Heller's performance at the Wonder Theatre last even- ing. The surprise which greeted the clever canary and handkerchiel tricks grow into amazement at the extra- ordinary manipulation displayed in the manufacture of the omelet and the brewing of the mocha from mate- rials not ouly irrelevant but absurd, and when the second sight performance was fairly under way the general astonishment reached a climax. It is uo- deniably a most marvellous business, Mise Heller, tall, fine looking blonde, becomingly arrayed, is os- corted to the centro of the stage, where she takes a seat upon a sofa wheeled out for her use. Her brother bandages her eyes with a large white handkerehiet, and then, stepping down among the audience, ho begins an indiscriminate selection of articles, picking them at racdom, and as he touches each article asking the Wlindfolded lady to describe it, which sho docs pri eory hepe accurately in every instauce, Last even- ing the list embraced the following articles:—A hand- kerchief, a glove, a lorgnetie, a stud, the culor, material 10, icy of yellow pine iumber. te Tr.
