Theatrical.

Finally, after several days previous no.
tice, the Buchanan Dramatic Troupe ap-
peared in Georgetown, on Tuesday and
Wednesday nights, to fair audiences, on
which occasions ''Richelieu" and Hamlet"
were presented, Mr.. Buchanan impersona-
ting the principal characters, which he did
in highly creditable style. We would
like it-time and space permitting-if we
could speak somewhat at length respecting
his excellent acting, but can only add he is
in every way worthy of public favor, and
has not received from the press generally
that laudation which he so richly deserves.
On the contrary he has been wantonly as
sailed by some of the Bay papers, which is
operating to his injury.
Mr.. 3. is well supported by the ablest
talent in the State, among whom are Mrs.
Moulton, and Messrs. Johns, Barry, Leman,
and Anderson, aud We can safely say, the
company throughout is the most efficient
now travelling the mountains.

Republican Meeting In Sacramento.

OePuoilcah Meeting In sacramento.
The attempt to hold this meeting last
evening, says the State Tribune of the goth
INST, was q failure. Mr.. Crocker ascended
the stand, and was listened to by the audi
ence in general with attention and courtesy,
except towards the conclusion some restless
ness and dissatisfaction were mapifested,-
Mr.. Bates, of San Francisco, next came
forward, but different knots of individuals
in various parts Of the assemblage broke
out in the most noisy vociferations and eff
fectually drowned his voice. He made sew
eral attempts to obtain hearing, but, the
noise increasing, he desisted for moment,
and turned towards that part of the assem-
blage at the back of the stand and inquired
whether Governor FoOte was present, re-
questing that gentleman, if present, to inter-
pose III his behalf and ask that the multi
tude would listen to what he had to say
Governor Foote, after some little delay, as
cended the stand and invoked patient and
polite hearing in behalf of Air. Bates and
other speakers present, being OF opinion
that it would be but right aad becoming on
the part of those assembled to listen to these
gentlemen quietly, however hostile he was
himself to the opinions entertained by them
and the doctrines inculcated. The noise,
however, still continuing, the Governor &C.
scended from the platform Directly after.
the most tremendous confusion prevailed,
il the midst of which, the stand was over
turned with several Of the Republican speak
ers upon it, and the scene wound up in a
blaza of glory, such a. genuine rowdy,
only, can fully appreciate.
We regret to record such disgraceful
occurrence in our city, yet We have the sat
isEaction Of knowing that it vas no act Of
the American party, however much they
may be opposed to the unUise agitation of
the negro question on the part Of these pre-
maturely organized Republicans. The men
edgaged in getting up the disturbance are
Of the genuine Phalanx stamp, and were
easily recognized on the occasion. We can
not think, however, but that the Democrats
were very ungrateful for the past services
rendered them by these same Republicans.
Perhaps the latter will not hereafter be
quite SO liberal with their favors.

FATAL RAILROAD Accidental youno
man named Francis n. French, aged TWEEN
ty-fve, formerly from Illinois, was instantly
killed about six O'Clock on Saturday even
ing by being run over by the cars near the
passenger depot. Deceased. who had usual
ly been employed in repairing the track. oc-
cupied temporarily the position of baggare-
man and brakeman. At the time of the ac-
c;dent he attempted to unhitch the "switcb
rope in switching off" the cars, but being
on the wrong side of the rope tripped over
it and fell face downward across the track
Immediately in front of the car. The wheels
of the cars trrversed diagonally across his
chest crushing him horribly and extinguish-

Gnme of ..Grnb."

On Saturday last, droll jocose chap
while passing cigar stand, corner of Main
and Placer streets, where was temptingly
displayed on the sidewalk by the sack full
no less than halfdozen varieties of nuts,
stepped up to the keeper, Jew, and wish
ed to know what he would take for a grab
The Israelite supposing he meant two hands
full, replied fifty cents; whereupon the stran-
ger handed over the amount aud grabbed
sack containing about bushel of pea
nuts, shouldered it, and made break for
for his mountain habitation. But, Mr.. Is
raelte not to be outdone in this way, i'm
mediately started in pursuit of his custom
er and encountered him before he had pro-
ceeded half way across Main street, and
taking it for granted he was licensed un-
der existing circumstances to take hand
at "grab,' caught hold of the sack and en-
deayored to get possession of it. Both par
ties displaying equal tenacity, a rich
scene ensued, the Jew pulling one way and
his friend the other, While at the same time
the nuts were being strewn in all directions,
which afforded the boys a rare treat at the
expense of the contestants, and the large
crowd assembled no little diversion. At
last however, the Jew showed evidences of
a faint heart and thinking a resort to the
civil authorities d more eficacious method
Of recovering the property in dispute, re-
linquiahed his hold and sought Constable
Bolin. His customer, regaining self-pos-
session, again shouldered the now almost
empty sack and made another break for
headquarters. But he was doomed to en-
counter other and more formidable barriers
He had scarcely reached the suburbs Of
town 'ere a peace officer tapped him on the
shoulder and took him prisoner, with re-
quest that he should accompany him to the
Justices Office. Obeying the injunction, he
shortly appeared as desired to undergo an
examination. After short parlence be-
tween the court and follower Of Black
stone, who volunteered on the part Of pros
ocution,-his Honor having in the mean
time vainly searched the statutes for q pas
sage of law applicable to the case--the
court decided he had no jurisdiction, and
set the accused scot free. BY the interfer-
enca Of friends of the parties compromise
was afterwards etfected the fellow return
ing the nuts, which, by the by; he had re-
tanned possession of during the entire pre-
ceedure, and the Jew paying costs, amount
ing to eight dollars and returning the fifty
cents, which the countryman "ehucked'' in-
TO his pocket and sloped.

HIIllard E7tlIn1o orc,

Contrary to our expectations for some
days past, the Philadelphia American Con
yention las terminated its protracted and
stormy lahors in manner gratifying to ev-
cry friend Of the Constitution and the
Union, and most auspicious for the harmony
and best interests of the country. We hail
the nomination of Milard Fillmore for the
Presidency Of the republic with feelings of
the highest satisfaction and pleasure. lie
was our first choice four years ago, he has
been all along our first choice for the COM
ing contest, and We now proudly nail his
flag to the mast, and mean to battle for his
success with all the power and energy, with
all the zeal and enthusiasm, Which it is pos
aible for us to command
The life and acts Of Mr.. Fillmore, the ex-
eellency and conservatism OF his administra-
tion during one of the most trying periods
of our national existence, is his own best
eulogy. In himself alone, in his ability, in
his integrity, i'll the purity and comprehen-
sivenesS of his principles, as Illustrated and
tested in times of unusual difficulty and dan
ger, is included platform broad and strong
and sound enough to command the enthusi-
astic support of every freeman and patriot
in the land, whether living in the North or
the South, the East or the West.
In word, he is thorOug, true, tried Ma
tional man, embracing in his affections, and
in the scope Of his policy, all sections and di-
visions of the country alike-knowing no
North, no South, no East, no West. but
looking with an eye single to the general
good OF common country, bound together
as sovereign States, under the protecting
9gls OF common constitution. Such is the
man now presented for the suffrages of the
American people for the highest Office with
III their gitt-a man without spot or bleln-
ish, untinctured with Sectionalism, and
hating Abolitionism with perfect hatred.
lie has been tried and not found wanting.
lie has served the country with fidelity and
zeal, and received for that service, so ably.
faithfully, and patriotically rendered. the
voluntary tribute of commendation and an
plause from men of all parties and all Dor
tionS of the Union. And such is the man
the times again demand at the helm of
State; one around whom the conservative.
law-abiding, constitution and Union-loyinr
everywhere can rally without distrust or
apprehension; a sound, safe and Just man: a
Sagacious, firm, prudent and experienced
statesman; one in whom all of all shades Of
opinion can cheerfully confde, whom none
need fear, and in whose hands the interests
and honor of the whole country. without
distinction Of section, will be sure to he m
held, defended, and preserved.
