Saturday evening's entertainment at the theatre rather petered out. Buffalo Bill was in Albany, having been called there by the death of his boy, and his character was taken by the agent, Mr. Burke. Without Buffalo Bill the play, which is not of a high order in itself, is a poor affair. The farce, "The Widow's Victim," was very well presented. The attendance was large, and the startling situations were loudly applauded.
