BUFFALO BILL.

"Lost and Won," the border drama, presented at Scroder's Opera House last evening by the noted scout, "Buffalo Bill" and his company, attracted a very large and attractive audience, -- one of the largest we have seen this season. The play is a very entertaining one and was rendered very well indeed. The fact that one sees before him in the person of Wm. Cody, a veritable Indian Hunter, one of the most noted and brave Western scouts, the man who, a few days after the killing of Custer, accepted a challenge from Yellow Hand, a Sioux chief, and killed him within full view of his tribe, -- this fact gives reality to the scene so depicted on the boards.

Mr. Cody is now in much better health than he was when last here, and much more of an actor. His shooting last evening was simply marvelous, rivalling that of the Austin Brothers in certainty and grace. The support was very hood throughout, especially excellent in part. We hope to shake the iron hand of the scout again before long.
