Short Musical Sketch. The lovely prima donna addresses the stranger in lavender silk tights, gold and drab jacket, and Charles II hat —"Speak, -who art thou, wanderer in ] these rußtic haunts ? " _ The stranger, the gallant tenor, repließ—"Listen, lady, I will tell thee," and then, turning from her, pushes forward and, tossing his head on one side, shouts to a man in the second tier of boxes, " I've been a rover over the sea—far I've wandered wild and free," and then, glancing down, he singles out and tells three ladies and two children in the parquet that ho has also been a "ro-o-o-o-yer oerthesee oerthesee oerthesse—the seo-e-ee;" and, for fear it may not be known, he " hollers" to a couple of newsboys who are jammed iuto the frontrow in the gallery that he has " wanderedwild and free—wildan—free-e-e-e e-e-e," with that long-sustained, high-tenor note, till you wonder if he was "bosun" or first mate, amid the applause which follows,_ and how he " roves " at sea in that gilt jacket and silk tights.
