brilliant season Of several hours The company were

there was afterpieee and some heeEand.toeology.
few Of the amateurs did pretty well but for the
rest-they were SO exquisitely bad, so ridicaously
horrible that the Audience went into highstrikes;H
it being curious feature OF human nature that the
depth Of the ridiculous pieasea dozen times more
than the height Of the sublime.
Toward the last, the audience Joined in the per.
formance, in their own way and the fun was alto
! gether huge There was great time any how. All
we have to add Isl that the Varieties Dramatic As
sociation do not expect to appear at the ST. Charles
again this season, and-that they are not the COM
pany engaged by Tom Placide to play at the varie.
ties theater this winter.
WASHINGTON FIRE COMPANY No 20.-This Com
pany yesterday went on an excursion down to Milne
burg, where they incontinently Stayed the fish and
other good things. They went down by the light Of
their own happy faces, with what little additional
light the sun was able to force through the clouds
aud came back by torehIight. They seemed to have
enjoyed themselves thoroughly. We felt sorry that
we were unable to so along with them, as they wanted
US to do.
BLOODY ITEMs.-Pat Blake was arrested on st.
Anthony street, Third District, on Monday night by
officer F. Ducoing, charged with ehopping Mrs.
Bridget Raymond in the head with an axe giving her
bloody but not dangerous wound. The beauty of the
business was, that Pat is Mrs. Brdgets brother that
Mrs B. had been widow but short time; and that
chop in the head with an axe was all the numbering
heathen had to offer his sister as consolation for her
widowhood.
Officer Manora brought to the Third District guard
house, on Saturday night, man named James
0'Brien who had been badly cut in his left hand by
one John Morgan, on Marigny street. Afterward,
0'Brien was sent to Charity Hospital.
George 81. Hill and VIM. Stephens were arrested
yesterday, in different parts Of the Third District for
drunkenness, and put into the same cell at the lock-
up. Whilst in there together, Hill wounded Ste
phens in the head in very ugly manner, either with
board or the heel Of his brogan-Which, was not
known. Stephens was badly hurt the whole floor
of the cell was covered with his blood and he had
to be sent to the Charity Hospital After that (here
being other prisoners in the cel) Hill had his hands
cufed together outside of one of the bars of the
grating of the celia rather torturous position which
prevented him from hurting himself or any one else
He was taking it in apparent good humor when we
went to take look at him.
On Saturday Louis Malloy ran his cart over boy
at the corner of Ursulines and Old Levea Streets in
iuring him considerably. He was taken before Re.
corder Wilt and fined $50 for his carelessness.
The REcoRDERs' GouRTs.-Recorder Summers, on
Saturday examined Eliza Gaughlin, on a charge of
having behaved like female HGttentot at the house
of her brotherin.laW, Frank DANCE, on Poydras
street, between st. Peter and ST. Paul It proved to
be nice family row. Mrs. Dang, sister of the ac-
cused, was in an interesting way, and wanted the
noise stopped which Eliza made when she came
around very abusive noise, always directed at her
husband. She refused to be sworn for the superst
tious reason that it would be bad luck to take an
tell plain lunvarnshed tale without the OATH Eliza
crossquestonng her sister, asked her if her husband
had not been brutal with her telling her she eat too
much bread was greedy with the wine furnished her
as a medicine ; and if he had not beaten her. and
threatened to shoot her, etc. It was altogether
rich case. The Recorder discharged Eliza exaeting
from her promise, however, that she would not dis.
turb her sisters husband any more.
Recorder Wilt fined W. FL. Reynolds S25 for maxi
ing frivolous affidavit against Joseph Matthews or
rather sentenced him to pay the fine when found he
! not appearing, and Matthews being discharged in
consequence. Reynolds, who claimed to be an EN-.
poyee at the United States Hotel in the Third Dis
trict is believed to have gone to Mobile The charge
was that Matthews gave him an ALFRED woloping on
the night of the 23d ut at the corner of Hospital
and Front streets Mr. Dolbeau was dismissed from
the charge of having stolen the pet spaniel of Il.
Charbonnet; the case having been partially settled
in Justices Court, when Dobeau was ciyiIly re-
quired to hand over the small woolly dog.
Recorder Long ordered three New York short-boys
to pay $l5 each for raising a on the leEee on
Friday night, and swearing that they could clean out
anything that wore short hair in New Orleans. Their
pluck, however, was higher than their putty; in con-
sequence of which they were presented with tickets
