Description Last night we paid a visit to the Chinese Theatre at the Black Lead. There was a good attendance of Celestials, and a few European visitors. The performance commenced with a play, in operatic style, of " intense interest," to judge from the attention bestowed by the audience, and was followed by a " spectacle," including processions and combats à la Chinoise.
