PLAYING RICHARD THE THIRD TO AN AUDIENCE OF ONE.--Mr. Foster. the mana ger of a theatrical company playing at bucyrus, Ohlo, was sitting in hotel when a stranger, with bill of the evening play in his hand, entered the room. and an- preaching Mr. Foster asked him if he was the manager of the theatre Being an- swered in the affirmative, he asked Mir. Foster what sum would induce his com pany to play Richard III. for him that afternoon, as he was compelled to leave town and could not be present in the eve nlng. Mir. Foster, supposing the stranger was testing, replied twenty-five dollars, and belng asked what he would add the Rough Diamond for, he replied ten dollars. The stranger forthwith counted out the money, and the company, on being consulted, agreed to grant the strangers request. The stranger desired that the play should begin no later than 2 o'clock. and we now let the Bucyrus Journal tell the rest "Two o'clock came, and the solitary audience assembled. Choosing an eligible position, and cooking his feet upon the back of the seat in front of him, waited patiently for the performance to begin. The bell rang, up went the curtian, and the play commenced. Never did act ors do better. They all exerted themselves to give their patron an entertainment fully worth the price paid for 1t, and they suc- ceeded. The stranger applauded vigorous ly at different points, and at the close of the play called Mr. Fannin before the cur Ill =. Al |
 A dance and song followed, after which the farce ofthe Rough Diamond was played The audience laughed, roared and applaud
 ed, and, as at the close of the first piece, called out the leading actors"

THE GREAT EASTERN A FALURE.-The following extract we take from the letter of the London correspondent of the Boston Post:
 "The Great Eastern has fummuxed! The leading journal records its trial trip as 'only a partial success We all know what that means. She rolls like a DOT boise or a log canoe, the decks leak, the iron plates don't fit, the decorations crumble and disappear, and-the worst remains behind-she can only go d little more than half the speed that was expected of herl The very best that can be got out of her under the most favorable circum- stances of wind, water and coal, is thirteen miles an hour. So says some knowing engineers who were on board and who wished and hoped the most favorable result. There is no disguising it. The great hull is worth all it would bring for old iron.'
Arkansas true Democrat., 1859-12-14

A POWERFUL LIGHT.-Dr. Smith, of Rochester, New York, has just perfected a new arrangement for light which Is report cd to be far superior to the celebrated Drummond or calcium light. The light has been placed on one of the locomotives of the Central Railroad, and an experiment. al trip made few nights since. The track was perfectly visible from the machine, for a distance of from twelve to fifteen hundred feet, so that the slightest obstruction could readily have been discerned by the engineer. It was found that man with optics of ordinary power, could, solely by the light
 reflected from the lamp, readily read a newspaper printed in ordinary type full quarter cf c mile from tie locmotiue. This seems incredible. but it is literally true. The distance was carefully measured by a professional engineer who was in the party.
