TIE COLLEEN BAwS. S.-Tlose who have
not seen Mr. Collins rs "Myles Ma Cop
paleen," in this beautiful. drama, are informed

with great applause.
Mrrui EI-ctr In arn*har

cncc to the late troubles in tho Mechanic Flu
sileer Regiment. The writer is the Chaplain
Of the regiment in question. It is but justice
