AMUSEMENTS. .
GRAND OrERA-IIOUSE "A MIDNIGHT BELL."
The Grand Opera-honso was crowded last
Bight, the attraction being Iloyt's "A Mid
night Bell," the best piece of work that has
come from that prolific writer of f un
making sketches. The company presenting
it is the same as last year, and each one
Bets all' there is out of his part, and the
performance was, in every respect, an ad
mirable one. The author disarms criticism
by the droll preface to the programme,
that this play is a legitimate comedy be
cause it is in f onr acts, while farce-comedies
are always In three. It has all the bright
Bess of tbe best farce-comedy, and there is
not a dull spot in it. The clergyman, the
deacon, the village doctor, the schoolma'am,
the old maid, tbe soprano of the choir, and,
indeed, all the rest, are exceedingly humor
ous. The audience was kept in a con
tinuous succession of smiles, breaking at
times into the most uproarious laughter.
The play. will be repeated to-nght and Sat
urday night, with Saturday matinee.
