Easter Monday Frolf.cs.
In accordance with a time-honored habit of celebra?
ting Easter Monday in rural sports, wo took the "bus"
yesterday morning, and went up King ?treet road to the
Three Mlle House, well and ably condncted by Messrs.
LOBSTOEB ir KEEBIC AN*. By advertisement in the NEWS
wo had noticed that Gk moans, to (au and pleasure Inclined
wonld here find tho necessary arrangements and conve?
niences to enable them to hare a gay time. The weather
was very fair and spring-like.perhaps a little too warm for
tho very active and lively exercise, of dancing. Messrs. L.
A E. have constructed a fine large ball room, with ten?
pin alleys, shuffle-boards, aud other amusomonts, on
the grcund-floor of tho building. Refreshments of a l
kinds aro served by attentive waiters. MULLER'S fine
band discoursed swoet music, and the soeno roon grew
gay and merry, and when the sun went down over the
8chutzenplatz the waltzers were loth to part, and all
united in ezpressing what a pleasant day they had
spent.
atm EAMLAB,
late in charge of the Schutzenplatz, and favorably
known to the Germans and others of Charleston as the
prince of good fellows, gave a select pic-tic at his new
place-the woll-I.nown favorite summer report-PAYNE'S
Farm. A band of Muslo, conducted by the ubiquitous
MULLES, was er -aged here also.
THE BJENOEBB?ND
gave a fine concert at Hibernian Hall last night.
The choruses and quartettes were very well sung.
The Welcome to Spring ("Dnsere Wleuen gru?en
wieder") la a very fine song; so also tho Forest song
or wood lay. The musical canary and January II
were great hits, and oarned most unqualified applause.
The "EckenBteh'Dr," a very amusing farce, well acted
and uproariously applauded, closed the first part of the
entertainment We did not stay to witness the myste?
ries of tho Ball, but from all appearances, should say,
that the attendance was good, os wo enw a very large
numbtrof young ladles, in handsome ball costume, who
seemed impatient for tho fun to commence. The young
folks m ver care fer the prellminaies of concert and
drama. They come io dance.
TBS T?BNVEBKIN
last night had a f ull house. Expectation seemed to be
on tiptoe for the new and original play foy ons of the
members,) "Sei kein Krebt" or ?The Biagic Hom."
Mr. DBDEN, tho author, won golden opinions from all
present, and had the sa tis faction of seeing his play well
acted.
We had written a foll account of this very interesting
play, but want of space compels us to exolude it. We
may do ourselves and our readers the pleasure, at some
future day, to present lt in an English dress. The Bet?
ing was remarkably good fer ama eura; and when
"Jakob" the servant uses the cudgel In tho finals on the
"dumme Jun?t." we fearedtho junge tfsjsjpjjsa? might
not understand the joke. The actina looked to much
like reality, "Snacken" was charming, und the Frau
Forsterin best of all. But where all did so well we do
not Ukc to discriminate.
After the play the dance commenced, imd this spec?
tator took hit cmos, having very much enjoyed the en?
tertain mont of the evening.
Tho Germans oertalnly understand -he ut of enjoying
themselves. They have a whole-souled way of throwing
themselves into whatever sort of fun they engage in,
that is really refreshing ti outsiders. May we and they
live to enjoy many more Otter Montage, together.
