THEATRICAL.--- Buffalo Bill and his company had the expected full house at the theatre last evening, and Major Burt's drama, "May Cody," served very well in affording the star an opportunity to be seen and heard, without so much obscuration by powder smoke, or drowning by rifle and pistol shots, as in his old plays. He appears in evening dress as well as in that of the plains, and the scenes of the play are not entirely [coned?] to the fort and forest. A part of the company put the audience in good humor by playing "Limerick Boy," before the presentation of "May Cody," and the drama had an Irish comedy part, which was rendered so as to gain considerable favor. Buffalo Bill was "first, last and always," given unbounded applause. The entertainment is to be repeated this evening and all its features, the revitable Sioux Indians, the Wonderful handling of a "bull whip," the popular rifle shooting of the Austin Brothers, will no doubt prove attractions to another large house. That meek loooking squirrel-gray donkey will appear again.
