The SEA OF Icr-For the first time in the his
tory Of Lynchburg we are to he favored with
drama bearing resemblance to the increduous-
On this evening the Sea of Ice, 30 justly ceebra-
ted wherever it is performed, will lie produced in
u style of unsurpassed splendor; strong cast of
characters and with the same beautiful and costly
scenery with which it met such unboundcd success
in neighboring city of Richmond
This drama differs from that which is classcd
legitimate. Its sound morality renders it favo-
rite with those who never attend theatre indeed,
during it's performance in Richmond, divines of
all denominations, saying nothing of members Of
churches, gladly bore testimony to it's value as
strong auxiliary to the cause Of virtue and NOR
ality.
Its romantic scenery and deep pathos--its thrill
ing incidents and morality, cannot but recommend
it to all. 1t opens in Mexico and ends in Paris,
and will contain .fve beautiful fa6iennr But
shall not anticipate its performance as we have
doubt readers will for the most part attend.
therefore we will leave it for them to judge for
themselves.
ACCIDENT FROM FIRE ARxs.-Sydnor Ackerly,
small lad employed at the Republican Office Of this
city, accidentally shot himself yesterday through
the hand with pistol The weapon wns loaded
with printers "quad," which made ugly
wound, though we understand that it is not re-
garded az being dangerous. Another argument
is thus furnished against the propriety of permit
ting boys to carry deadly weapons.

THE ENGLISH OPERA TRoUpE.-This well-known
company, we are happy to say, are reaping fresh
laurels by their performances in Richmond The
panv:
This sterling company is still drawing brill
liant audiences at the Theatre and we are really
pleased to see merit, such as theirs, meet with its
reward. 1t is seldom we are favored with such
nrtistes, and while they are here liberal patron
age shonld be extended to them
"wednesday evening the opera of the Daughter
of the Regiment was performed to IN Overlooking
housc-eyery seat in the dress circle and parauette
being filled by the beauty and fashion of our city
The Marie of Miss Durand was a great success
and won for her fresh laurels. Her voice is a
pure Soprano, highly cultivated her STYLE of exc
cution is brilliant and facle, while her acting is
peculiarly fascinating, combined with a grace of
form and poetry of movement which stamp her
histrionic abilities MS of the first order.
The Tonic of Miss Hodson cannot be too high

ist, this lady has no equal. She does not elecri-
