BENGOUGH.
The "Sydney Mornng Herald" says —"Bengough, cartoonist, poet, reciter, singer, and comedian, proved himself eminent in the first named capacity amongst the newspaper artists of the English speaking world. This, is saying much, but his work was not only rapid, but instinct with animation and character. Bengough can hold his own amongst the best of the entertainers who have from time to time visitefd this country. One of the events on Saturday night was his very spirited delivery of his own lines upon "The Visit of the Yankee Squadron," as spoken by an enthusiastic tar back again in America, after being feted in Australia. A peculiarity about Bengough's 'cartoons is that each represents a crescendo of happy endeavour." Bengouge will ap pear in the Town Hall on Thursday evening next. The box plan is now open ut Messrs McLeod and Young's.
