BUFFALO BILL TO-NIGHT.

This notable scout arrived in town this
morning accompanied by Captain Jack,
the Poet Scout of the Black Hills, and
the large and talented company that has
been so favorably noticed by the press
everywhere this company has appeared.
Buffalo Bill's trophies of the past summer
campaign, that were captured from
the Cheyenne Chief "Yellow Hand," on
the 17th of July, were placed on exhibition
in the window of Button and Hamilton's
book store, and are the objects of
great attraction. They consist of the
Chief's scalp, war bonnets, shield, bridle,
gun, pistol, knife, &c.

"The Red Right Hand," has been
pronounced by the best of critics to be
the best Border Drama ever written and
when a change was made in the programme
this week, at Indianapolis a request
was tendered to Mr. Cody, (Buffalo Bill)
to reproduce, which following card will
explain. We expect to see a packed
house to night, and a speical matinee
will be given to-morrow for the accomodation
of ladies and children who will
probably find it too crowded to attend the
evening performances.

Hon W. F. Cody. (Buffalo Bill):

Dear Sir- We, the undersigned, having e
njoyed your interesting entertainments
given at the Opera House this
week, presenting to us the scenes of your
perilous vocation in the far West as
Chief of Scouts for the government,
would request a repetition of your new
drama entitled "The Red Right Hand."
Trusting you will comply, at the same
time we congratulate you on your very
deserving success and hoping you will
visit us again soon, feeling assured you
will ever receive the same warm reception
from the citizens of Indianapolis as
well as yours, very respectfully,

Geo. C. Harding, John Hanna,
Gus. Gregg, J. M. Paver,
Jos. Flannerv, Fred. Thompson,
Frank N. Scott, Capt. Jenks,
and one hundred others.

Messrs. Geoge C. Harding, Hon. John
Hanna, Gus Gregg, and others.

Gentlemen - Nothing could give me
greater pleasure than honoring your solicitation,
and allow me to tender you and
your citizens my heartfelt thanks for
your appreciation of my endeavors to
picture to you in your quiet and peaceful
homes, on the rostrum stage, the dangers
and trials that ever surround the settlers
and those emigrating to our western borders.
At your request, this evening, our
last appearance, we will produce the
drama, "The Red Right Hand," and
when engaged in my calling on the plains
among my happiest moments will be
those when thinking of my dear friends
in east, none of whom I esteem and regard
more highly than those of Indianapolis.
With much regard, I remain

Yours, truly,
W. F. CODY, (Buffalo Bill).
