THE BUFFALO BILL COMINATION.

There arrived in the city last evening the ladies and gentlemen who are to compose the dramatic troupe which Hon. Wm. F. Cody organizes here or his season's business. They are: Delaney Barclay and wife, Miss Nellie Jones, J. F. Loudon, Charles Wilson, L. R. Millard, Alfred Beverly, Henry Irving, Prof. J. Rampoul, James Green, Hugh Miller, Henry Mehner, John Lendlow, Alfred Ward, besides the leading lady, Miss Denier, and Buffalo Bill himself, whose arrivals have heretofore been announced. The above are the pale faces in the company. The Indians, who came to-day, are White Eagle and Spotted Horse, Pawnee chiefs, Brave Hawk and Sly Fox, Ponca chiefs, with C. A. Burgess, for years government interpreter in the two tribes, and his son Master Eddie.

Next Monday evening the troupe gives its first performance here, with the stirring drama, "The Knight of the Plains, or Buffalo Bill's best trail." The play was presented throughout the East last season by the same company, and drew crowded houses, and high praise from the press everywhere.
