...their usual style and batted poorly, except in the first inning, when they scored four. With our Nine it was almost the reverse. They batted well and fielded poorly, as a general thing. In the latter part of the game the Bostons seemed to bat with much more success, and then the Harvards did the most disastrous fumbling and muffing. In the first half of the game there were many instances of sharp and accurate fielding done by both Nines, and the few spectators were often constrained to take their hands out of their pockets and applaud.

Mr. Hooper was most imposing as Gesler; and Mr. Dumaresq a most graceful young Tell. The bear performed with wonderful zoological accuracy, his conception of the part being most artistic. In fine, from the first chorus to the tragic denouement, the audience was in a continuous ripple of laughter, with frequent...
