Tn. Opening Night at Growers Theatre


In spite Of the extremely unpleasant weather
and the ABB entcesm OF large portion OF our pop
ulatlon, GToverB Theatre was allied lAat evening
with a happy audience. The Ltorm poured and
roared without, but It was all sunshine within.
The newly swept, newly painted and garntshed
theatre never looked 90 cheerful and comfortable
before. Koppitz's orchestra gave the audience
come hne preliminary music, endiuJ with a ns'
tIonal air, " hich brought down the house, before
the curtain went up.
That good old standard comedy, 1.-THE Heir at
Law" was produced in a style that would have
done honor to any Of the hrsteass theatres In the
country. Mr.. WArren's doctor Pspylos,," Mr..
Barron's "Diek powlss," Miss orton's "Cicely,"
and Mr.. B.shop's Ezekiel Homespun" were espe-
eially commended by the audience. MIR. George
A. Andrews gave US correct and lifc-like "Lord
Duberly," although he had always hitherto played
another part In the piece. Miss Emily Mestayer
was at homo In LADY Duberly." Mr.. Ward'aud
Mr.. Jennings played their parts well, and the COM
edy was rApturously applauded throughout. The
farce OF Seeing Warren" produced 'Inextip guish-
able laughter" throughout the entire performance.
The entire company were called for at the end
| OF the hrst piece, aud then the " Warren Comedy
Comb nation" were called before the curtain. The
audience inEitted on hearing from Mr.. Warren
after the Others had retired, and he addressed
them hriehy with his thanks, adding that he had
performed so long In city, and In one theatre in
that city, that when he left Boston his friends told
him he was going away from home; but the kind
, reception he had met with here had almost per
auaded him that he was at home 10 Washington.

MCCLELLAN AND THE CHICAGO PLAT.
FORM.

Our dispatch from the editor-ln.c chief In New
York, published yesterday afternoon In the
REPUBLICAN, produced great commoton
among the copperheads in Washington. That
Mcclellan should propose to rOpudiate the
platform made by the Couyention before they
made his nomination, and yet 10 accept the
nomination upon platform Of his own, struck
them with astonishment. Some said he has
no power TO do any such thipg-that the plat.
form was paramount TO the nomination, and
he can no more compel the Convention TO ac.
cept his war platform than they could compel
him to accept their peace nomination.
Others said that II he was going to accept
upon war footing they would never vote for
him-that If he was going over to the war
Democrats, they would sooner vote for Mr..
Lincoln than for him.
Still others said that If he had believed that
the platform would secure his defeat, while he
would have felt compelled to resign his COM
mission in the army like Fremont, he ought to
have Immediately signiGed his intention to re.
ject the nomination and give the convention
an opportunity to make up a new slate.
And yet others said the platform was good
enough, and 1t would hold both q war mau
and peace man, and he ought TO stake his Major
Generals commission on II. They held the
same opinion as the Richmond E1dmi,,er upon
the platform. That paper saysi "The said
platform is half peace and half war. 1t floats

who left the army yesterday morning, we elearn
that quiet reigned around Petersburg. The
quiet Of Petersburg was disturbed somewhat,
however, on Sunday night. By Gen. Grants
orders a salute OF thirty-four guns was fifed at
midnight along the entire line of the army be-
fore the "Cockade City," Thirty-four rounds
Of shot and shell were delivered, and the effect
Is said to have been magnificent in the ex-
treme. 1t must have produced great sensa-
ton in the devoted city of Petersburg.
1t is stated that when the news of the Chi
cago nominations was received in the rebel
army at Petersburg it was greeted with the
most yociferous cheering along their lines. All
the deserters who came in agreed in stating
that this loud cheering, which was heard dis
tinctly in our camps, was on account of the
nomination of Mcclellan and Pendleton. This
fact, together with the platform of the copper
heads, has changed materially the tone of the
army toward Mcclellan.
A North Carollnian who deserted TO our lines
says that an awful condition of things exists in
that State. Almost every day the citizens in
greater or less numbers come in conflict with
the Home Guard kept there to arrest desertert
and enforce the conscription. He says that he
was conscripted about three weeks ago, and
was shot al five timC7s before he was captured
and marched of.
The officers Of the Home Guard arc shot fre
quently by dc3ertcrs, and occasionally heav!
fight occurs between large parties. This dc
serter expresses the opinion that the rebel sol
diers in that State would soon be kill,d of O
