"BUFFALO BILL" attracted to the Howard Opera House, last evening, a fair-sized and highly enthusiastic audience. The play-"The Prairie Waif"-is of the good old melodramatic kind, abounding in thrilling situations and effective tableaux. "Buffalo Bill" is as fine a specimen of manhood as we have ever seen, and as far as physical beauty goes would adorn any stage. His rifle-shooting is something really remarkable and well deserved the enthusiastic applause it received. Miss Fletcher is a good actress and the same can be said of Miss Thompson; and Mr. Keen, Mr. Charles and the other members of the company did very well in the parts assigned them. The audience was immensely pleased and the applause was almost continuous.

Buffalo Bill, despite the snow storm, had a very good house last night, and the audience seemed to give a favorable verdict in reference to his new play "The Prairie Waif." Mr. Cody improves as an actor and he brings with him a very good support. The finest feature of the evening was his exhibition of fancy rifle shooting, which was really artistic.
