The Cinematographe.
Mr J. F. MacMahon, his staff, and the wonderful machiue arrived by this morning's train from Napier, and will open to-night at the Princess Theatre, when it is safe to predict a hearty welcome from an audience that should pack the Theatre.

The doors open at 7. i•">, and we would advise intending patrons to make early provision for their sea's.
