OXFORD HALL.--A large audience greeted
the Marsh Juveniles at Oxford Hall last ev-
ening; all of whom came away delighted
with their wonderful presentations. They
present that beautiful spectacle, the Maid
Queen, or Nymphs Of the Rhine, this evening
which will be rendered doubly effective by
their gorgeous scenery, beautiful dresses
and decorations, grand marches, terrific
combats, startling tableaux, and wonderful
tricks, in which the whole strength of this
wonderful company will appear. They are
bound to fill Oxford Hall to ovecfowing
while they are there, for they are the most
wonderful Troupe of Juveniles on the globe.

DEATH OF CAPr. WILLIAMsoN.-We regret
to hear of the death of commander Gabriel
g. Williamson, U. S. N, recently of the
steamer Fulton, which occurred in Pensaco-
la. on the 10th inst. The disease of which
he died was yellow fever, with which he
was attacked on board the Fulton, as before
announced.
His family reside in Williamsburg, Va.
where they had re moved some time since
He was son of the late Thomas Williamson,
of this city, and was highly esteemed for his
manly virtues and generous nature. They
who knew him best, most deeply mourn the
loss Of a true friend, while his sorrowiug
household have heartfelt sympathy in their
sad atfliction.
