Abstract

Personne reports that The Octoroon is leaving the Winter Garden and will be replaced by Heron's Lesbia this week. Bourcicault's take on Sir Walter Scott is a success at Laura Keene's. Personne gives other general news about the opera, the progress of The Octoroon in Boston, and asks Lester Wallack to "hurry up" his Poor Young Man so that there will be something new at Wallack's.
