pleased with the performance at this place last
night. Mr. Walcots Pierra Palliot, in the Follies
ola Night was excellent and Mrs. Walcots Ouch
ess, was charming, this being her first night Too
much could not be said for her. She is destined
to become quite favorite here. The rest of the
characters were well sustained The ladies looked
remarkably we'll and did justice to their characters
The Farce of "Kill or Cure went off roaring.
We feel justified in advising all to give thema call
as the management spare no pains to render their
Theatre place Of real amusement. Those who
love fun-6o.

A FIEsD.--A Mrs. Gibson made complaint to
Captain Birch this morning of treatment received
by her at the hands Of her husband, which, for bru-
tally and inhumanity, we never heard of being
equalled. He has threatened to kill her several
times, and on one occasion, while sleeping, she
was only saved from being murdered by person
who took from her husband razor with which he
was about to "cut her throat as he then swore

down the river, to escape the interference Of other
people, as we suppose and, while In the river, tied
her to the mast, and logged her () in real man-of-

true, we hope he win be severely punished.
The CoxxoS SESsE BKEHIvE.--Mr. Calvert, the

phical, and perfect beehive, which took the first
premium Ia silver medal) at the late Fair, may be

Office, with his beautiful specimens of honey.
We learn that the rights for many States and
several for Territories have been disposed Of since
the close of the Fair, and those DESTROYS Of pur-
chasing family, county, or State rights, had better
improve the present opportunity, the season for
putting them in use Is now at hand.
KEEPING 0PEs ON SusDAY.--Willam Feeny, who
keeps a tavern on the Avenue, near Adams Ex-
press Office, was arrested and tried before Justice
horsell, yesterday for violating the tavern law, In
keeping his bar open after IL o'clock on Saturday
night.
Feeny invited the Montgomery Guards into his
place, and they were carousing In high glee which,
being perceived by Officer Wise, warrant was
obtained, and he was arrested as stated.
The magistrate has not yet given bis decision.
srKALIEG--The double-barrelled fire arm, which
exhibited Mt the Fair and which attracted great
attention from the fact ofone barrel being used for
shot and the other for ball, has probably been
stolen, MS no trace off has been found.
II was yaluable gun, worth about $50, but will
be Of no use to the thief the popularity Of the
gun win ensure an immediate conviction.

articles, deposited at the Fair, and which have
been Missed has gone, as the chances of detection
are slight and the depredators would labor under
no difficulty in concealing their guilt
