horrors of winter have commenced, and 1 ́have seen three poor wretches lying in the open, frozen dead.

TELEGRAM dated Washington, November 13th says:At the State Department, where the matter seems to be thoroughly understool, it is believed that Viceroy Li Hung Chang's request for the dismissal of Judge Denny, the American adviser of the King of Cores, will be speedily complied with, if this has not already been done. The Corcans, if the State Department advice is corred, are already dissatisfied with Judge Denny. The story which reaches here through diplomatic channels is that he used his position to ingratiate himself with the Russian Gevernment, for whom he has secured important trading concessions along the northern frontier of Corea. The Viceroy's demand will furnish the Cocans an opportunity for which they have long been wait- ing to rid themselves of him. The understand- ing at the State Department is that Hugh A.

A few more people came later on, and stayed out of sympathy for the management, but-not to be hyper-critical-the show was an Arctic frost. Sheridan and Phil Ray were chiefly responsible. for the frequent peals of cavernous laughter which the piece-a most tumorous absurdity- evoked.
