Srvart Rocers, who gives one of his ad- mirable entertainments at the Academy of Music on Wednesday evening, Oct. 18th, has

won golden opinions from the press every- where. The Racine Journal says of him :— ‘Mr. Rogers gave one of the most enjoyable

entertainments of the season, exhibiting won- — powers of mimicry, and great skill in e delineation of characters; and the facility a rapidity with which he made the chang ges | in his attire, necessary to represent widely dissimilar characters, were the wonder of the | spectators, Irresistible peals of laughter fol- lowed the rendering of the humorous selec- tions, and the large audience were thoroughly pleased.” Mr. Ro_ers’ impersonation of Oscar Wilde is pronounced true to the life. The costume worn by Mr. Rogers is a fac simile of the original, which was duplicated by Mr, Wilde’s tailors, expressly for Mr. Rogers.
