AMUSEMENTS.

NATIONAL THEATRE -- THE RIGHT HAND.

Buffalo Bill has his benefit to-night. Last night
the best house of the week greeted him. "The Red
Right Hand" is a drama founded on the Indian war
of 1876, in which the lamented Custer and his comrades
lost their lives. Shortly following the massacre,
Gen. Crook sent out adetachment of the 5th
cavalry, Buffalo Bill acting as chief of scouts for
the party, which succeeded in overtaking a band
of hostile Cheyennes, and capturing "Yellow
Hand," their chief Col. Prentice Ingraham has
gathered the most important incidents of that
campaign, and cleverly introduced an interesting
story, using the principal characters of scouts and
army officers, giving to the drama some natural effects,
which ends with the apotheosis of Custer.
To-night it will be repeated.
