“OLYMPIC THEATRE. Rural visitors to New-York, whereof large numbers are appearing in our midst, may like to be reminded that the funniest performance now given here—that of ‘Humpty Dumpty’—can be seen at a matinée to-day.”

“The Four Hundred and Fiftieth representation of ‘Humpty Dumpty,’ at the Olympic Theatre, takes place on Saturday evening, the 17th inst. The attendance, although not large, is no doubt sufficient to leave a blanace in the treasury at the close of the week, when all the current expenses are paid.”
