There was some excellent voices in the company, and the dancing was strictly up-to date. ( The cake walking is a strong feature and brought forth great applause. The two hau ls made a good showing on the streets today. The performance will be repeated again this evening in the big tent 011 Husk, between nth and Oth streets, and the tent will 110 doubt be crowded.
