MR. Booru appeared as Richard the Third.
before Large and fashionable audience lastnight
He played the whole character well. and in some
scenes he was beyond criticism. His starting
from the dreadful dream, the night before the
battle, and his horror stricken frenzy, as he en-
deavoured to recover his senses, we have never
seen excelled. Tonight he appears. for the last
time, in the character of Bertrum, in Rev. Chas.
Mnturin's great tragedy of that name. Mrs.
Cunningham takes the character of Imogine.-

A SERIOUS APRIL Fool MIsTAKE-On the eve
ming Of the 3lst ult., two parties arrived at the
American House. this city, in the same train from
the north; one party was Of Isaac Willard and wife.
a newly welded pair, on their way to New York
from the brides home in Vermont, and the other
party was of \. II. Whitlaw and family, from New
bury, VT, with through tickets to Mineral Point,
Wise. These parties were strangers to each other,
the same time, AMI deposited in one place at the
ed West and took with them, as their baggage a
trunk belonging to Mr. Willard leaving one of their
own. Mr. Willard when about to take the noon
train for New York, was COMPOUNDED at seeing his
most valuable trunk gone, Containing, as it did
the bridal dresses and presents with miserable
box filled with pettcoats and coarse clothing occu-
pying its place. The officers of the Western road
promptly telegraphed West, but unayailingly, IS
have the trunk stopped; and Mr. Willard, after re-
naming second day, departed with sorrow to n.
York. Mr. Adams, proprietor of the American
House, then commenced the search in earnest, and,
having received full particulars Of the westward
movements of the Whitlaw party, starts to-day for
Mineral Point, in search of the trunk there or
along the line. Both trunks, the one taken and
that left, were fully marked, and bore no resem-
blance to each other; but Mr. Whitlaw seems 10
have been green Vermonter, unused to travel
and Of constant alarm lest something should break
making it reasonable to lay the exchange to ac'
cident. Mr. Whitlaw was even so excited during
his stay, that he kept himself and everybody elst
in constant fever, and was only saved the lass o.
all his tickets by the labor of Mr. Green, the pop
ular clerk.-Spring feid Repub

has discovered collection of four thousand letters
wholly in the handwriting of DIR Franklin. The
writer says
"a great many of them were written from Plas.
sy, near Paris. 1t is not generally known that
Franklin invented the manifold copying ink and
press now in such general mercantile use, whereby
IL fac simiie of each letter is Immediately transfer.
red into book of tissue paper. Franklin kept
duplicates taken in this manner, of all his letters
public and private. The prime cost of the eollec.

paired, mounted and handsomely bound in Rus
