Summary Of News For October.
On the 27 th , a new drama , entitled The Beginning to the End , was produced at the Haymarkot . It is of the dreadfully dismal school of Victoria domestic drama , and though admirably written , and well supported by the powerful acting of Miss Cushman and Mr . Howe , is not likely to hold the stage for any length of time . At the Lyceum , Mr . Anderson , the Wizard of the North , has been drawing crowded houses to view not only his wonderful feats of magicbut listen to his exposure of
, table-rapping , and whether he produces the result by the same means as the regular mediums or not , it is perfectly clear that he shows some most startling results , and lias been eminently successful in rapping the coin out of the pockets of Pier Majesty ' s liege subjects . To those who are not addicted to theatres , we would recommend the Pol ytechnic Institution , and AVoodin ' s Oho of Oddities , as well deserving attention .
