96THE OPERA HOUSE. - The stirring drama of "Life on the Border" was presented at the Opera House last evening, with the far-famed heroes, "Buffalo Bill" and "Texas Jack," in the loading characters. The audience was fair in size and very large in enthusiasm. Of the play it is only necessary to say that it is made up of wild scenes of border life, of Indians, scouts, villians, and defenceless women, of plot and counterplot, of capture and recapture, and of course, with a happy ending. It has been honed down wonderfully as fas as the use of gun powder is concerned, as as not to jar on the nerves of ones in the audience, yet does not fail to excile the gallery to the highest degree. He will be repeated this evening, and to-morrow afternoon and evening. The opening piece should not by any means be forgotten, for in it the "peerless Moracchi," whose triumphs as a dansnese are well remembered by citizens, appears in teh quartette of characters "Carlotta," "Signora," a Spanish Dansesse," "Mademoiselle, a French Vocalist," and "Gustavus, a Young Avenger," in the charming comedlotta, "thrice Married," and it is needless to say that she sustained her old-time reputation. There will be a change of programme to-morrow evening. | 96THE OPERA HOUSE. - The stirring drama of "Life on the Border" was presented at the Opera House last evening, with the far-famed heroes, "Buffalo Bill" and "Texas Jack," in the loading characters.
