Lyons" The afterpiece Of Year LIES

THEATRE.-Mr. Booth had 3 splendid
benefit last night-the house being
denseIy packed, and the elite of the
beauty and gallantry of our city largely
represented. His Alfred Evelyn was q
master piece of acting. The fact is, he
seems to grow better and better with
each successive performance, and to gain
nightly deeper hold upon the affections
Of his auditors. Tonight, be appears
in the beautiful tragedy of The Rob-
bers," IS Charles De Moor. The enter
tainments close with Bryan 0'Lynn."
What has come over some of the mas
culines who attend the theatre Have
they lost ell courtesy? There was q
time when no gentleman without lady
would keep bis seat whilst there was .
lady or her escort wanting one. This is
not the case now, we are sorry to say. It
is difficult for lady who happens to be
late, to get seat; and frequently they
are compelled to leave because they can
not get one. Shame on the men who re-
tain their seats and permit this.

Capture of Gen. Vance.
From the Richmond Examiner, of the 29th ult ]
We have some interesting Particular
of the recent expedition of the NOFtE
Carolina forces in East Tennessee, which
terminated SO dissstrOusly, and resulted
among other misfortunes, in the capture
of General Vance, who was in command
General Vance crossed the Smoky
Mountain at the head of Lufty, with
about three hundred and fifty five caval-
ry, two peices of artillery and one hun
dred and fifty Indians. The force had
great difficulty in crossing; the soldiers
had to take the horses out of the wagons
to get down. the mountain, over q perfect
sheet of ice for three miles. After get
ting to the foot, psrt of the command
was left, while General Vance, with
about one hundred and seventy-fVe men
started to SeVierville on 4 reconnaissance
When in about two miles, be heard of =
Yankee train Of wagons being there.
Our small force Immediately charged and
captured seventeen wagons, one hundred
mules and twenty-six prisoners. The
enemy were then in four miles of our
force, and General Vance at once started
out with the captured property.
This was about three P. NJ. The Gen
eral thought it was impossible to get
over the Smoky Mountain, and endeaV-
ored to make his way to the Cattalocha
Road, on the head of Cosby Creek. He
immediately dispatched to Thomas (WhO
- Al. oo.;o. oA9oa. - oor,r,.,dN -
send Col. Henry, with the balance of the
command and artillery, by the road
around the base of the mountain to meet
him on Cosby. The force with General
Vance travelled that night until twelve
o'clock, when they found the road in their
front blockaded. They then had to lie
by until daylight, when they cut out the
blockade, and reached Cosby about ore
P. NJ; but, instead of finding Henry there,
they found dispatch from him saying
that, upon consultation with Colonel L.
Thomas, he had concluded the route was
impracticable, and would fall back
across the Smoky Mountain.
So there was General Vance, with the
captured property, prisoners, &C., and
only about one hundred and seventy five
men. These had not been on the creek
one hour before they were attacked by .
Yankee cavalry force about four hundred
strong. Our command was completely
dispersed, the property reeaptured, half
the men taken prisoners, among them
General Vance and part of his Staff.
The fight occurred on Thursday, the
18th, about 2:30 P. NJ.
Our men were perfectly panic striker
and made no fight at all. The General
escaped from the house where he was aud
got across the creek, and was endeavor-
ing to get to the advanced guard when
he was captured. The enemy. did not
stop at all, bat dashed on toward the
front One of our officers in the affair
writes IS follows:
awe succeeded in rallying the men
on q little point, which was 3 splen did
position, but the men were so frightened
that they only stood one fire and broke.
1t was one of the worst stampede ever
saw or heard Of Nearly every man lost
his horse"
