Buffalo Bill
This famous scout had, as usual, a very good house to greet him, last evening, and the play seemed to give them all great satisfaction, judging from the applause that very frequently burst forth. Mr. Cody pleased all, and the part of Old Sloat, by J. V. Arlington, was very admirable done. Mrs. Lizzie Hall made a very capital Italian girl from Cork.
the Yellow Hand trophies of Buffalo Bill, exhibited in the show window of Wise's tobacco store, attracted a great deal of attention.
The troupe are in Williamsport this evening.

Opera House- Buffalo Bill.
The largest audience of the season assembled at the opera house last evening to welcome back our fellow citizen, Buffalo Bill. this noted scout having returned from his summer campaign against the Indians, winning much fame for his galand deeds, is to travel during the winter season with a new play, introducng the incidnet attending General Custer's murder. Last evening, however, he appeared in the play so well known here entitled "Life on the Border." The appearance of Buffalo Bill was the signal for a storm of applause from every part of the osue, an ample testimonial to the manner in which Rochester audiences remember their friends. Even if his ability as an actor were not well known, the distinguished services which he has rendered our government in the past would be sufficient to draw out a large audience of his friends, glad of an opportunity to show their appreciation of his public and private worth. It is unnecessary to speak of the manner in which he acts. He is the original of the part and plays it with as much spirit as if he were on the western plains fighting real enemies, instead of imaginary ones. The support last evening was very good in every particular. The part of Old Stockum was taken by Mr. Arlington, who has traveled with Buffalo Bill for several seasons and is well known here. The character assumed last year by Texas Jack, which has been slightly changed, is taken by Harry Duffield, and of course is well played. Mr. Smith as Captain Huntley and Bradshaw as The Quaker, both did finely. What little there is for the ladies of the company was well done by Miss Pierce, Mrs. Hall and Mrs. Watson. We have only to say in conclusion that we hope Buffalo Bill will everywhere meet with such success as was his last night. Such services as his are too uncommon to go unrewarded, and the entertainment he offers is so pleasing as well as instructive that all should attend, thereby seeing a true picture of western life and a true representative of a western scout.
