THE RED RIGHT HAND. -"The Scouts of the Plains" and "Life on the Border," the dramas presented here in the past by Buffalo Bill and his companies abounded in sensations of all kinds, but "The Red Right Hand," played last evening, had more of it than both of them, and presented in a less pleasing form. But those who delight in reading blood-and-thunder romances demand a blood-and-thunder drama occasionally, and give it their hearty support too, so there was a crowded house last night, and the Treasurer of the company can laugh at those who talk of the decline of the drama.

THE SCOUTS. -This evening Buffalo Bill, ever a favorite with Manchester people, will appear in a new play at Smyth's Hall, supported by J. W.

These two scouts are backed by an efficient and powerful dramatic company, and the play of the "Red Right Hand" will be presented in a manner that will give satisfaction to all. This drama is founded on the scalping of the Indian chief "Yellow Hand" by Buffalo Bill at the battle of Indian Creek, July 17th, 1876, an account of which was telegraphed to this paper at the time. Don't let the storm prevent you from going this evening.

Buffalo Bill's Troupe
Drew out a tremendous crowd at Smyth's Hall last evening, the hall being packed and jammed to overflowing with our amusement-loving people.
