The audience gave a regular Hooaler scream, the girls anlcketed, and Artemus being unable to ward off the impending laugh, took it all in godd part, but didn't lift thegals; he lifted the dutrters, though, and that's where he had 'em.

It was a monster mass meeting that assembled to welcome thequatot "docnUonist'' to. the Quaker City. Artemus fhced the vast aniUence with a modesty and confidence, and "spoke his piece" to the "moat blandest tones." He kept hla auditors to a ccnttoued roar of laughter by tils queer ssjtogs and his eccen- trie method of delivery. His "orations" are even«iore enjoy, able than-^ils very popular nowspoper pieces, 'and wv are not now eutprlsed that he. should be able to attract such Immense congregations., The people see before them a plato, modest sort of a man, who'puts on no airs such as are commoh^th most ' [doable services of Big, Glrard aro constantly brought forward 1 o amuse the audiences.

Wilson recently sold out his cirous bnstoess to Ur. Lea. The Amphitheatre, Philadelphia, was re-opened loot week, and by a new compoiny, among whom are Tom Etog, the great leap- er; U'lle'7irgliria, equestrienne; William Smiu, L'Eschelle Fe- rlleuse, and man monkey; Charles Madlgan, John Foster, down, and others.

Drury Lane is doing an immense bnstoess with "Qoody Two Shoes;" the Strand Is crowded nightly to see "Ivanhoe;" the Olympic with "Bcbto Hood" ond Bobaon, is nightly to a state of fashionable Jam, and theHaymarket with LordDnndreary (now to hls second year) and Brough's admirable oorleaqne, •'Bas- lias," is constantly thronged from pit to dome. Urs. D. p. Bowers, who was a great Phlladdphia favorite to the pdmy days of the Watout Street Theatre, Is now an equal f&vorite with the London playgoers. She is engaged for the sea- son at Drury Lane, and mdces her rtnlra on Monday next ss Maritona to "Don Osaar de Bazan." Mrs. Bowers was Che hero- toe of the "Peep 0'Day," which part she performed untoter- mpted^ for thru Aundnd and twenty nigMi. I am told there was great rejolctog among the comedians when this play was token from the bills. I can weU believe it To inhabit the same ever- loattog coatome, and repeat the aame words wearilv night after night for over a year muat be dreary work. How the actors In the "American Cousin" endure tho Intcrmtoable "mo," I can't Imagine. Buckstone, they say, has addled his brain as Asa Trenohard, and as for Bothem, he must bo stork stortog mod. Apropa ot Urs. Bowers, who, as I said before, deftuU at Drury Lane, die has Just returned from Paris, where ahe has been making extensive purchases to wardrobe, Jewels, and plays, with a view to a tour to Ameflca'one of these days.
