Buffalo Bill, or the Hon. William F. Cody, as he his known to his fellow legislators in Nebraska, appeared again at Lyceum Hall last evening. Cody is physically a fine specimen of humanity, and there appears to be no doubt that he has undergone frontier experiences fully as heart-thrilling and hair-raising as those which he reproduces upon the stage. The "new drama" given last night contain an assortment of bloody encounters with demoniacal savages, noble rescues of captive maidens, and narrow escapes from torture and death, at which the most exciting and gory-minded spectator cannot grumble; while the manner in which Buffalo William dispatches aborigines after aborigine to the happy hunting grounds must be highly satisfactory to those who regard extermination as the true solution of the Indian question.
