Having secured a lease on liberal terms, he most respectfully announces that he will open as above, on Monday evening, Nov. 14th, 1864. Being persuaded by many influential families, and the solicitation of many friends, to locate again in this city (having searched in vain for a site on Chestnut Street.) has at last decided on Race Street, that being the only available situation already constructed--having undergone a thorough renovation. The advantage of the city railway cars makes it as central as any other place of amusement, and more adapted for the performance of minstrelsy! It possesses more stage room and scenery than his late Eleventh Street Opera House, thus enabling him, together with the cheap rent, to produce a superior performance ...

The Great panorama of the Indian massacre of Minnesota! will positively be on exhibition at [blank] Hall on [blank] 1864 In 1862 the great Sioux tribes of Minnesota and Dacotah were actors in one of the most savage and cruel massacres that history has ever recorded. Small parties roamed over the entire state, putting one thousand persons to death in the most cruel and barbarous manner--farm-houses entered and whole families put to death. Over 20,000 families, terror-stricken, left their homes, many of them to fall a prey to the red-devils in ambush. The exhibition will consist of the following views! all painted in the best style, and will be shown by a very powerful calcium or Drummond light on a canvas over twenty feet square! ... The whole to conclude with a laughable afterpiece! Admission, 25 cents Doors open at half-past 7 o'clock. To commence at 8
