New Bowery Theatre

     “New Bowery Theatre. Mr. Charles, the Irish comedian, and Miss Emelia [sic] Melville made their first appearances at this house last night, in the drama of Ireland and America, and the Irish Lion. The house was rather slim, owing, we presume, to the weather, but the acting of Mr. Charles appeared to meet with the approval of the audience.  Miss Melville is a vocalist, as well as a very sprightly actress, and sang two or three songs, to the great delight of those present, who vociferously applauded her.”

     “This week Mr. G. C. Charles, Irish comedian, and La Belle Emilie, daughter of Mrs. Jones, and well known as a very clever soubrette actress, commence an engagement appearing in ‘Ireland and America,’ ‘Jenny Lind,’ and ‘The Irish Lion.’”
