The Ferry Boat.

The sad accident which recently occurred
on board the Ferry Boat plying between this
place and the Maryland shore opposite, by
which young lady will probably lose her
life, must impress on our citizens deeply the
necessity of having the miserable apology
for a boat, which now discrcdts our city,
substituted by one suitable in all respects for
the accommodation Of the business for which
the ferry was established. Had the present
outre-looking scow been furnished with the
proper accommodations for passengers, the
lady above referred TO- would not have been
forced to take shelter from the cold in the
coal hois, Intended for the fireman only aud
thus this deplorablc accident would have
been avoided. At present, there is abso-
lutelv no shelter whdterey on board and pas
sengers and freight, alike, are necessarily
exposed to all kinds of weather. And this
boat u | understand, is now kept up dg
tie Corporation Of 1lsraadraa.' Is II 10
be wondered at that the trade with our
ueirhbors opposite should have dwindled
down to 80 small point, when Alexandria
herself affords such means OF communlca-
ton. The great wonder 10 one IS that any
one who values his life at ALL should venture
to cross the Potomac in the ''lop-sided,' rick
city, and patched up concern, which now
runs as ferry boat.
| trust some prompt action will be taken
BY our City fathers, by which, at least, a
decent boat, with proper accommodations for
ladies and others, will be speedily put on
this route. The trade with our Maryland
neighbors has been too much neglected, and
much Of it has been driven of from US by
our inaction.
A good substantial boat would draw
much larger trade from the opposite SIDE OF
the river than is generally supposed, and
would prove, undoubtedly, good invest
ment. PoloMAo.

ICON MCSICATED.


THEATRlcaL-The Theatre continues to
receive that liberal patronage which the en-
ergy and enterprise of the lessee, and the
admirable qualities Of the Company 50 justly
deserve. Comedies, and in fact, all plays
depending for effect, solely upon the quiet
business Of the artists, peopling the stage,
are more satisfactorily represented IN house
whose architectural proportions makes the
auditor feel at home The truth OF this Is
rendered apparent by Witnessing Dr. Gold.
smiths comedy. "She Stops to Conquer,
as presented on Tuesday night at the thea
ire for the first time, since the commencement
of the season.
Miss Charlotte Thompson, as Miss HARD
CASTLE, scared beyond the excellent. She
represented the part with al! the true grace
and beauty with which the imagination "i
Goldsmith has shroudcd the character. We
can only say that the more we see OF other
actresses, particularly when they cndeavor to
fill varied range Of character, the more are
we impressed with the conviction OF Miss
Thompson's immense superiority to them an.
OF course, some others excel IN single ROE,
but we are not aware Of any one on the
American stage who is in every way 50 emf
nently satisfactory. Mr.. Lamb, as Tony
LuApKIN, approached perfection as near aa
possible. Mr.. Hill, as Mr.. liardcastle, per-
formed his part with that incifble commlnS-
ling of humor and wary digaity for which
be is peculiarly remarkable. Mr.. Lngham,
ACQUITTED himself with admirable excellence,
in the part Of YouNG MARION.
