Buffalo Bill Last Night.

Durley Hall was crowded last night to welcome the knight of the plains. The plot of his play is not as well connected as in some other plays, but it bristles with stirring scenes throughout, and, as the curtain is rung down at the end of each scene, the boys in the gallery and the young men in the parquet and dress circle fairly yelled and howled in the excitement of their pleasure. Buffalo Bill's life is the ideal career of all the dime novel boys in America, and they applaud him to the echo. The boot blacks squander their hard earnings as him and all the enterprising news-boys in the United States patronize him with a joy unknown to them when they put their "nickles in the missionary box." The various characters in the play are well represented, except the Jew, who overdoes his business in some particulars. The buttermilk negro was immense, and Judge Shyster was equal to the efforts of a broken down Chicago lawyer. The play takes well.
