The "HrDDEK HAND This ever pop
ular drama was splen4idly presented, to
q large and fashionable audience, at t! e
Theatre last evening. The piece was
better performed, if possible, than upon
its previous presentation. Mrs. Edwards
looked. dressed and acted Capitola as
only she can DO it. In this great charac-
ter she is without a rival. Of the many
who have attempted this character, she
is the Capitoia Welsh Edwards, as the
clustering Old Hurricane, was really
excellent. Mr.. Edwards is one of those
actors who is capable Of playing any
kind Of character we'll. The entire con-
pany, in fact, acquitted themselves in a
superior manner, and we regret that
space forbids a notice of each.
This evening the sublime classic TRACE
dy of "Medea" will be performed, in
which Mrs. Edwards sustains the title
role, in which she is said to rival Matilda
Heron. Mr. Edwards takes the SPLEEN
did character of Jason, and will be sup
ported BY the entire strength of the COM
pany. We advise our lady friends TO i'm
prove this only opportunity of witnes,
ing this beautiful piece. Mr. Lewis will
also perform his rope feat; after which
the roaring farce of the ''Eton Boy, or
the Female Captain" Go early and SC
cure seats. *

The RISE IN REAL EsTATE-The re
cent public sales by the executors of the
estates Of Horace Durham, NJ W Eos
ter, Hon. Samuel Hall and j. III. Maghee
and others, have demonstrated very
clearly that at last real property in Evans
vile and neighborhood has taken
rise, and is increasing in value with I'M
precedented rapidity The sales last
Fall of the property of Durham and
Judge Foster were so greatly in advance
of former prices as to excite the aston
ishment of many of cur citizens, yet
those more recent, especially that Of last
week Dv the executors of j. H. Maghee,
not only sustain the prices attained in
the Fall, but improved upon those on an
average near 20 per cent. Now, al
though we have regarded the very reas-
enable prices at which real estate has
heretofore been held in this city as one
of its chief advantages We have new
er been able TO understand why there
should be so great a difference in this
respect between Evansville and other
places of. to say the least, no greater
present business or future prospects.
Why, for ins;enee. the best property in
Indianapolis should command from FIVE
hundred to six hundred dollars per foot,
while that of Evansville is sold at from
one hundred and fifty to two hundred
dollars per foot; and we therefore note
dhe presen: advance not without salts
faction Indeed, one of the most cheer
ing indications Of the future of our city
is the eagernes with which capitalists
and business men, resident aad non-res-
ident, are embracing every opportunity
of investing their money in its real es-
tate.
Tomorrow another large sale is to take
place. Messrs Chandler & Hynes will
sell that well known property The INDI-
ANA Mills, and over 100 lots in Lamasco
the Lower Enlargement, and the South
ern Enlargement of the City. We I'M
derstand from these gentlemen that The
sale of most of this property is for the
purpose of making partition between va
rious parties in interest; and that if any
thing ike reasonable prices are bid, the.
intend to sell every lot offered. w
would, therefore advise all who are look
ing for investments Of this sort to atten(
this sale They will not soon have s.
good an opportunity to suit themselves
and probably never again an opportunit
to buy property so low.
