Last night one week ago the theatre
was opened under the management Of
Messrs. Dufield & Sands. The FIRST
week Of the season was no doubt proh-
table one to the managers; if it was not
it should have been, for we know they
were untiring in their efforts to please,
and we feel confident they succeeded.
Notwithstanding the weather. during q
large portion of the week, was very dis
agreeable, the theatre was generally well
attended, which fact eyinces the attrac-
ton offered to the public.
We did not have an opportunity Of
witnessing the performance last evening,
and cannot, therefore, speak of its merits,
we understand, however, that both pieces
gave entire satisfaction and that the at
tendance was quite large.
We learn that in addition to the ex-
cellent company already engaged, that
it is the intention Of the managers TO
add several others, and that we are also
to have an opportunity of seeing some of
the "bright particular stars" that make
up the dramatic galexy. We feel con-
fident that we will have, during the pres
ent season, something extra in the way
of theatricals.

formerly obtained from Kentucky and
Tennessee, the cotton States have more
intensely discovered their defenceless

current prices, adding that every article
of food is rising every hour:
