THEATRICAL lTEMs.-dr. ). Is. hoBERT6, the ira
gedian has returned from his professional visit to
Europe and is now playing at Burton's New York
Theatre.
Mr.. HAUKETT, the unriValled Falstgt, is playing a
short engagement at one Of the st. Louis theatres
It is said Mr. HAoKETT has received overtures from
some of the London managers toreYisit England.
An exchange says: "a new and splendid Indian
, lay has been written for Mr.. NEAFrE" We hope
the great American tragedian will represent it better
than he does some that were written for other
people.
new drama entitled Gold, by CHARLES READE,
taken from his Well-kDOwn story, "Never too Late
to Mend" has been produced at the Howard Athe-
neum, Boston.
new farce, written by DoEsrICKs, and perform
ed for the first and last time at Wallack's, in New
York was thought by some to be the production of
his intimate friend "Damphool"
The South Carolina Gazette, published in Charles
ton during the year 1877, file of which has been
recently discovered contains frequent notices of
"play house. in that city, which refutes the general
opinion that the first theatre in this country was
opened at Williamsburg, Va, in 1852.
ANOTHER JAIL DEWEBY-We had another Jail
delivery about four o'clock Thursday morning. 1t
seems that N. C. BISHOP, who was in confinement
awaiting his trial upon charge of burglary, sue
eeeded in picking hole in the inside WALL through
which he made bis way into the open space in front
Of the cells on the first floor. These he succeeded
in opening by breaking the locks and releasing eight
others The bars around the stairway leading to the
second floor, were then forced and two prisoners re
leased from that portion Of the Jail The eleven
prisoners then returned and effected their escape by
picking hole in the outer wall Of Bishops cell and
letting themselves down by blanket. With the ex-
ceptiOn of solitary old man, the jail tenanuess
yesterday morning.
The Jail is very insecure, and the wonder is that
any of the least ingenuity has ever been con-
fined in it for week at a time, if be could have
procured case knife or pewter spoon with which
to pick out the mortar and thus leave the rocks
tirely loose and easily removed. The walls could
scarcely have been put up avOrably for prison.
ers to break through them. It seems Bishop had
nothing but a small hickory stick with which to re-
move the mortar around the rocks in the inside WALL
and yet he appears to have accomplished the work
in a very short time. Having effected entrance
into the open space in front Of the cells small bar
Of iron was procured with which the mortar and
rocks in the outside wall were removed
Our Comfy Court should take immediate steps for
erecting new Jail, either upon the old or a new
Site the walls of which should be so constructed
as to be proof against all attempts at picking with
such instruments as prisoners could procure This
must be done if it is expected or desired to retain
those whom it may be necessary to cOnfne in Jail.

JoHs GRAY & Co., the contractors, have just put
large force on the second section from Chattanooga
connecting with the Tunnel section. Ii IS thought
that it will be completed in about a month, aud in
the same time, the Tunnel will be flashed. As the
work now goes on, it will not be many months before
the two ends of the road can be Tapped.
