Theatre, on Monday evening, one Of those crowds
not often seen within its walls The house was
hlled, and it was hard to say whether the partcre
OF young and budding blossoms on the stage. or
the ripper charms of the matrons in the boxes and
parquette, most deserved admiration. Ali the
world (and the rest of mankind) knows that the
beauty of Nashville cannot be excelled, If equaled

In the production Of this operetta, much credit
must be given to Messrs. Pearl and Dorman, for
the great labor and untiring perseverance they
must have used in training so large band Of such
very small performers. The chorusses were well
executed, and would have done credit to profess
siona performers and the perfection to which they
were brought bespeaks a care and attention on the
part of the teachers that cannot be too much ccn-
mended The strctest discipline was apparent, and
showed that Mr.. Pearl is q Martinez; but we are
sure that not parent left the theatre who was not
proud of Our public school and the way it is con-

young friends might suffer no disappointment
OF the young lady singers it is difficult, without
appearing invidious, to psrculsrize any, when all

SANS" EprrAPH.-The Pennsylvania, after a
grand" retrospection of the funeral of the decess
ed Sam" whom they mourn as did Burns mourn
his pet sheep, Mailie, Byron his Newfoundland
dog and Trenck his mouse, concluded with hand
ing down to the coming generations the epitaph of
the renowned Buntlinite:
Departed this life after nine days of intense su-
fering-SAM KNOW NoTHING--a rascal of the most
acute type. He was born of Hatred and Ignorance
and nourshed by Population Fraud and Envy
were his Sponsors, and Bigotry and Prescription
his Preceptors. Lies and Malice were his meat
and drink, and Treason to the Constitution the OBJ
jeet of his existence. Detected in his design, be
established the Third Degree, which was to deceive
the South into the idea that, under his protection
their peculiar institutions safe from interior
ence. He explained the operation of the third de-
gree to the East and West because his chief strength
lay IN those quarters. and upon them he wonld
have to relv for success He told the abolitionsts
that the Mird degree was harmless to their inter-
ests because not more than one ia five members
would take that degree, as in the case of MasoDs
becoming Royal Arch Mssons The business of
the Secret Order would still be transacted by MEM
bers OF the second degree four-fths of whom were
in favor of admitting no more slave States into the
Union .
The third degree was intended 10 operate upon
the elections to be held at the South in order that
success might accrue to the Secret Order, by Civ
ing it a sort Of national character. Without
party in the South, the organization could be only
sectional and fsctious. Sam, therefore, born liar
and cheat, with nothing but evil in hi. nature,
lived short and infamous life, and died with lie
upon his lips, in the hope that his fraud might be
successful Bis deeds vese matured in darkness
-ad sought to be achieved by means the most in
famous No place was too sacred for his corrupt
ing Influence; no ties of kindred too holy to be
severed. Friendships were TO be conducted by
fraud, and falsehood every where substituted for
truth, until human society should become SO de-
based, and religion SO perverted, that liberty would
no longer exist and the living God ceased to be
worshipped. In the midst of bis wicked career,
Providence stretched out his arm, and Sam fell a
victim to his own yillany.
