It may be remembered that Mr. Dampier, the tragedian, was, from a money point of view, a failure in Dunedin and Christchurcb. He has been playing in Sydney, and his experience there exemplifies, as the I/yttelton Times justly observes, the uncertainty of an actor's popularity. Mr. Dampier opened at the leading theatre in Sydney on February 10, when the house was packed from floor to ceiling, and hundreds of persons were unable to gain admission. Mr. Dampier appeared _an "Hamlet," and his conception and rendering of the part seem to have taken the Sydney playgoers by storm. The theatre was crowded nightly, and the chief actor appears to have been received with the greatest possible enthusiasm. "Hamlet" waß running to full houses at the time the. mail left. Mr. Dampier was supported by Miss Adelaide. Bowing, Messrs. J. J. Bartlett, Booth, Ryan, and others. btrangers paying a visit to Wellington, and country settlers arriving in town, aro very often at a loss to know which is the best house or cheapest general drapery establishment to visit for.buying drapery and Clothing. J. MuDowbMi and Co. offer special advantages that can be met with nowhere else in the city. They keep at all times the largest and best assorted stock of every class of goods, imported direct from the leading manufacturers of Great Britain and Ireland, which, being bought on the most advantageous terms, enables them to offer goods of sterling qualities at prices that cannot be improved on by any house in the trade. Every article is marked at a fixed price that cannot be deviated from, for ready money, from which there is no deviation ; so that inexperienced people are as well served as the best judges; the terms being net cash, without rebate or abatement of any kind. A full description of stock can be obtained from our catalogues and advertisement. STote the address—Opposite the Bank of New Zealand, corner of Lainbton-quay and Willis-street, Welling ton. —Advt
