The Opera-house.

The Dime-novel blood and thunder heroes
closed last night at the Opera-house to an
immense audience. There is no doubt that the
heroes of the play are daring and intrepid men,
who have on the stage of every-day life played
no insignificant part; but at the same time the
part they play on the mimic stage amounts to
nothing. But as the mere names of Buffalo
Bill, Texas Jack and Wild Bill suffice to
draw- money, it fully accomplishes the object.

For next week we are to have "Little Nell,"
the preteen actress. "Fideus" or the Fire
Wolf, is the inflammatory title of the piece
which is expected to start a fire of enthusiasm
for "Little Nell."
