Buffalo Bill Show.
The Buffalo Bill show here on Saturday night was a Hamletless Hamlet in as much as Hon. Wm. Cody was not along. Still the show was fairly good, the best features being music and the Dutchman. The attendance was not very large.

Buffalo Bill's Dutchman.
Buffalo Bill will be here on the 12th. The Rochester Herald says:
The "Prairie Waif" gave the gallery gods a picnic at the Grand Opera House last night, and greatly delighted the mixed audience occupying the chairs downstairs. There are enough sanguinary encounters, to draw large audiences and make the boys in the gallery yearn for a life on the plains, where they could kill an Indian before breakfast and half a dozen after dinner. Every time Buffalo Bill arrived on the scene in time to save the life of "the waif" --which he managed to do several times during the play--there were thunders of applause down stairs and wild shrieks of delight from the gallery, and the admirers of the famous fighter were only sorry that he did not slay with his trusty rifle more of her enemies than he did.

Buffalo Bill.
Buffalo Bill, with his "Dutchman," will be here on the 12th--next Saturday evening --and both amuse and delight a big audience. We say big audience because William never fails to draw large crowds. From the Buffalo Express we take this:
Buffalo Bill's Dutchman and the Prairie Waif Combination opened a three nights' engagement at the theatre last evening in the sensational border play, "The Prairie Waif." The audience filled every seat, and was as enthusiastic an audience as could be desired. The play is the same that Mr. Cody gave on his last visit to Buffalo, but it has been judiciously revised and re-written until it is as good as new. It is, of course, a story of the far West, and gives the hero ample opportunity for the display of his peculiar accomplishments. In the second act he gives an exhibition of fancy rifle shooting which is very interesting. The plot of "The Prairie Waif" is connected and more interesting than the usual run of border dramas. The Indians with the company are genuine Indians, and their songs and dances are at least novel.
