Buffalo Bill and Captain Jack.
At Phillip's Opera House, on Monday, (tomorrow night,) will be presented the thrilling new drama, "The Red Right HAnd," written expressly for Wm. Cody, (Buffalo Bill.) It is a play full of the startling situations of border life, and the scenes are said in the Black Hills country. The synopsis abounds in such sentences as these: "Oh, horror! horror! "Pearl pursued by Indians. "Back, back you red fiends!" There is no doubt but it will furnish a roaming evening for the boys and all who delight in the sensational school. There is a high order of merit in the play, however, and no coarseness, Buffalo Bill is one of the most grateful actors in the world. His tall figure, broad about him and the fine classic head, with its flowing brown hair, make up a picture worth seeing. We bespeak a perfect ovation to the brave scouts of the frontier. The gallery will need to be enlarged to accommodate the boys who have been saving up for days, in anticipation of the treat.
