THEATRE.-Ne are in arrear of the novelties pre-
scented at the theatre Of late. The most important
the drama Faust and Margaret founded on GGthe's
profound fiction of the same name 1t is bold at
tempt to bring upon the stage piece never written
for that purpose, and which demands deep study TO
appreciate its merits rather than the transient at
tenton yielded at the theatre. For this purpose the
acted piece is made to include the romantic rather
than the metaphysical features of the original dra
ma, while the general features of the fiction
are preserved Mephstopheles in the hands of the
present author and those of Mr.. Roberts becomes
quite different character from the original in
stead of the sardOnc, icy Sarcasm, and the naughty
sneer of Gethe's intellectual fend, we have him
transmitted into quite merry devil, and the result
is one of the spiciest pieces of diaberie ever put
on the stage. 1t keeps up the most vivscous good
humor in one of the largest and best amused
audiences We ever saw at our theatre.
Though very late. we must not omit to mention
he liberal expenditure which the management have
devoted to the production of this piece with its
cessories, musical and scenical, quite liberal pa
tronsge must be needed to reimburse them. and we
trust they will receive it.
The Political Prize FjglL Is scarcely calculated to
elevate the theatrical taste Of the community. The
audience seemed to find some fun in it, and there
fore make no objections A very decided party bias
was to be expected by those who know the banner I'M
der which it is written. We only hope that our distin
guished feow-citizen will feel fattered by the man
ner in which he is brought upon the stage by his
admirers, but deem ourselves happy in the obscu-
rity which keeps us out Of the way of such COM
pliments.

other orators of renown. The effect of establishing
a university of the highest grade among US will be
to elevate thewhole standard of education through

all existing institutions.
The plan of the University Of the South Is TO OBJ
tain sufficiently large endowment to place on
permanent basis university of the highest class !;
securing all tho principal and expanding only the IN

stronger and stronger as time rolls on and the South

man knowledge,
The site selected combines great advantages ofposi
ton health, climate, abundance and accessibility
and will be favorite resort of the people of the
low country for a summer residence. The ample
domain of the university not required for college
purposes will be leased for that purpose.

Into passion again BY thy soft thrilling word,
Which knew not that life e'er could bring
To It's bleek portals an hour CT spring;
But sunshine and song OF life cnce again
bath stolen through each chord and thrilled every vein
Into life, into hope, into joy once more
For thy words have called back the heart its glow
OIL treasured are they, deep within memories cell,
Where no rudeeye read their soft magical spell,
To tell the wild hoPe-yes, wild it may be-
This fond heart hath nurtured in secret for thee;

And ne'er LET the heart thou hast wakened song,
Feel moment Of sadness, an hour Of wrong.
