No DIscaIxIsAT1oS-TheT Transcript of yes
terday comes down on the Hsyne Troupe with
out any discrimination. We regret to see this,
because Mrs. Hayne is the queen of all artistes
in the estimation of thousands all over the
world wherever her wonderful powers have
been witnessed. As to the troupe accompany
ing her, it is proper to say they are not well up
in their parts as a general rule. There are,
however, some exceptions. Theatricals are at
low ebb in this city, and the pieces produced
ON our boards conspire to weaken interest in
the drama. The same pieces are produced over
and over here to safety. Among the thousands
of good plays in the English language it is not
impossible to select dozen or two to take the
place of the oft-repeated Lucretia Borgia, Lady
of Lyons, the Stranger, &c.; and we will under
take to warrant success to small but efficient
company with such a lady as Mrs Hayno at
their head, who will como to Nevada and play
nothing that ever has been produced here In
the range of dramatic literature a hundred
pieces may be found which would draw and in
terest good houses all over the State. Nothing g
else will redeem the drama from neglect. We
must have more novelty. 1t is not necessary
that plays newly written should be put upon
the stage. 1t is rather hazardous. But the
nu merous and well approved plays that now lie
neglected would be as new to most of US as
one just dropped from tho pen of Dion Bourci-
cault or Bulwer.

THEArRE.-Mrs. Julia Dean Hayne and
troupe returned to this city and played to fine
houses on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday
nights. The play of Monday nigh. was The
Stranger. Mrs. Haller, as personated by Mrs.
Hayne, was a splendid piece of acting, as is
everything attempted by Mrs. Hayne. The
company improved on their performances OF
the previous week in a marked degree.
On Tuesday evening was presented Lucretia
Borgia. We we're not present, but we hear that
the evening passed off very pleasantly to the
audience Allen, as comedian, is spoken Of
in terms of commendation.
Mrs. Hayne was presented by the citizens Of
Nevada with a complimentary benefit on the
last night of her stay-Wednesday night As
Madelane in the Drama of that name she was
all that the fine character calls for. 1t was
really a most captivating personation. Mrs.
lIayne also rected Judge Conrad's thrilling
Fireman's Address, and appeared as the Duchess
de Torrcnueva in the favorite comedy of Faint
Heart never won Fair Lady.
Mrs Hayne leaves Nevada, after an engage
ment of eight nights, with the golden opinions
of all who have Witnessed her successful efforts
to please.

STARTLING FROM GEoRGIA.-From the budget

the following dispatch to the New York Trib-

WASHINGTON, Friday, Dec. 2sth, 1S60.-The
following dispatch. dated at Macon, Ga. on Thur
sday, Dec. 81, reached Georgian gentleman
here last night;
"Rumors of rising among the slaves in the
south western part fthe State prevail here.-It
is impossible to say with certainty whether an
insurrection has really taken place, oris only
threatened.
" The greatest care is taken to keep the mat
ter secret, but most exaggerated reports are
whispered aloud in this town to-day.
There is certainly much excitement among
the negroes everywhere and the occasional ru-
NOR offghting at Charleston makes them rest
less and very dangerous.

of Senator Broderick-prob badly the most per
