The T0HG-H00K-TO DRAMATIC COMPANY
We are happy to learn that the plain IN
vanished tale" Of the disappointments and
suferings Of the Celestials who are members Of
the unfortunate but talented Tong Hook Tong
dramatic company. which was told in the HER
AID short time since, is likely to produce an
effect which will result in great benefit to
these performers. A committee Of very
wealthy and most respectable gentlemen are
actively engaged in an endeavor to tender a
proposed benefit for them as remunerative as
possible. The main object Of the benefit per-
Torrance is TO raise sum amply sufficient to
convey the entire troupe home to China and
thus save our citizens the continued taxation
which must ensue for their support if so many
men are permitted to fall into q hopeless,
and consequently, enduring, state Of pauperism.
We think that humanity recommends the case
Of the Dramatic Company to every mans
breast whilst civic policy should endorse the
promptings Of our better nature towards their
aid
The benefit will come of next Saturday, al
Castle Garden, the use of which has been given,
free Of charge, for the occasion. We are certain
that the generous artisfes now in New York
will lend their aid, as far as is consistent with
other engagements For although there is g
dreadful rebellion in the Central Flowery
Kingdom, and though Nankin has fallen, and
the Sus4uehanna could not get over those ugly
and-bars Of the Yang-toe-Keang, still it is bet
ter for the men Of the Tong ook-Tong Ora
matte Company to be ranged either upon the
side Of the revolutionists or imperialists in the
battles Of their own country, than to sit pining
away in the Shakespeare Hotel, and that too,
at the expense Of its humane proprietor

TnE ARRIVING AND STARTING PoINrs or rae
LIVERPOOL STEABERs.-As the system Of reckon
ing from dock to dock is open to several
objections. we would suggest that particular
points be jointly fixed upon by both the Collins
and Cuuard lines from which to date, on their
arrival and departure from New York and
Liverpool. AZ the thing has been brought
down to minutes reckoning from the dock is
disadvsntageous TO the Collins steamers. owing
to thciF dock being situated further up the river
than that Of the Cunard line. The points which
appear to be the best suited for the purpose are
the Rock Light at Liverpool and the Quaran-
tine station at New York. Both these places
must he passed by all the steamers, and are
prominent points on the route. The trip west
ward is virtually at an end on reaching Qua
rantine, az the vessel has always to stop or
slow her engines for the visit Of the doctor for
whom, occasionally, thcy have had to wait some
time. which unnecessarily adds to the length OF
the trip; and the eastward trip is often length
ened by their having to wait tide for auili-
Gent water to yet up to Liverpool.
