BUFFALO BILL.

An exchange says of Buffalo Bill play
to be given to-morrow night at Music
Hall:

"The entertainment afforded at Dehany's
last night by the celebrated Buffalo
Bill and company, appearing in "The
Prairie Waif," was witnessed by one of
the largest audiences ever assembled in
this city. When the curtain arose on the
first act, not a vacant chair was to be
found in the house, and the gallery was
crowded to its utmost; the play was well
brought out, and elicited great applause.
Mr. Cody representing three distinct
Western characters showed himself to be
an actor of considerable merit. His exhibitions
of marksmanship, shooting
slices of potatoes with his gun held in all
conceivable shapes, was notionly interesting
but wonderful."
