PROVIDENCE OPERA HOUSE. --THE BUFFALO BILL COMBINATION-- The new play "May Cody," written expressly for Buffalo Bill, by Major A. S. Burt, of the United States Army, was given at the Opera House last evening. It is devoted to Western life and introduces scenes of Mormon and Indian massacre, which are realistic in their faithfulness. Buffalo Bill is the hero of the piece and appears as the deus ex machina in all cases of danger and difficulty. The Austin Brothers, the celebrated sharpshooters, add to the attraction by their remarkable skill in shooting, and a real Sioux brave with his feathers and war paint takes part in the drama. It was received with great applause by a large audience, and will be repeated this evening.
