DRAMATIC.

The y. n. Dramatic Association COM
menced series Of dramatic performances
in the Union Theater, on Monday even
ING. The company is composed of anna
teurs, mostly civilians in the employ of
the government. The opening perform
ance was successful beyond the anticipa-
tiDns of the members. The house was
esowded, and the sale of tickets had to
be stopped for lack Of room, to the disap-
pointment of hundreds. The bill for the
evening consisted of an Irish Overture by
the Orchestra, under the direction of
Prof. Henry Murphy, of the Post Band,
the drama Of Temptation, and the farce
of The Limerick Boy, the whole inter-
spersed with songs by members of the
Association, and the accomplished Glee
Club of Stevens Cavalry, who kindly vo-
hnteered to assist, and added much to
the success of the entertainment. The
casts for the plays were good, and every
Thing went off as smoothly as if the COM
pany had been an old one, playing in a
theater with first-class appointments.
The Irish parts were exceedingly well
taken, and the gentlemen who assumed
female characters made up for them with
commendable skill. The audience was
very appreciative, and applauded vocifer-
ously throughout the evening. Many
prominent officers and civilians, and some
ladies attended. The Post Band having
been called away after the overture, the
band of the 10th Pennsylvania very
courteously furnished an orchestra for
the remainder of the evening. On Tues
day night the performance was repeated
with equal success. The theater will be
opened again in few days.
The rc-opening of the theater gives
great satisfaction to the public generally,
furnishing as it does pleasing variation
to the monotony of life at a military
post; and we are rejoiced that it is in
the hands Of so enterprising company.
The officers of the Association are as
follows s:-President-Nr. L. D. Cunning
ham; Tice-President r. R. Nc
Gregor.; Secretary-Mr. VIM. ID. Davis;
Treasurer-Mr. A. R. Gage; Stage Man
ager-Mr. R. Lindsay; Costumer-Mr.
James Egan Property Man-Mr. John
Connolly Scenic Artist-Ar. William

FIRE DEPARTMENT IN BEAUFoIr-DiS-
yER BY TIE MEMBERS OF TIE New York
HOSE CoMrANY.-The members of New
York Hose Company No. l, at Beaufort,
gave most agreeable entertainment TO
their friends on Saturday evening last, in
honor of the opening of their new car
riage-housc on Sixth street. About forty
invited guests sat down to table spread
with the choicest viandS which Southern
market affords. In the absence of Mr..
Roomc the foreman OF the company,
Mr.. Pond, the assistant foreman, presid-
ed, prefacing his duties as carver by a
few appropriate remarks complimentary
to Gen. Saxton and to Captain Moore.
After the banquet had been discussed, the
health of Gen. SaXton was proposed, and
the General responded in speech of some
length, alluding to the important services
rendered by the company during the past
winter, complimenting its members for
their public spirit, congratulating them
on their prosperity, and pledging himself
to do all in his power to strengthen and
sustain the Beaufort Fire Department.
He had no doubt that in the hands of
Northern men, Beaufort was destined to
become large city-the emporium of
the South. Already it was rapidly en-
larging its boundaries, more buildings
having been erected there within the past
six months than in any six years previous
to the war. The intiammable character
of the buildings, however, made we'll
organized fire department necessity;
and he hoped that soon Il new and sp!en-
did engine might be added 10 it.
The fire engine found at Beaufort when
our forces first occupied that place isnow
in use at Hilton Head, and in case Of fire
there the only apparatus the citizens can
depend on, is al old, worn-ou machine,
unearthed at Jacksonville. The civilians
of Beaufort will be called upon at an early
day to organize IN additional fire COM
pany.
At the conclusion of Gen. SaxtCns re-
marks he was honored by three enthusi-
astic cheers from his friends among the
fircmen. He shortly afterward left for
his quarters. The festivities, however,
were kept up till late hour, songs,
speeches, stories and sentiments following
each other in quite succession. Captain
Moore, Capt. Low, Chief Engineer Hyatt,
Mr.. G. w. Crane, Mr. Sam. A. Cooley,
and especially Mr.. F. Brandies, with his
violin, were remarkably successful in
their efforts to amusc and entertain the
company.

If the men are not Forthcoming through ,he

the latter. The men must be raised, and
therefore more decided and energetic action
should be displayed on the part Of every
citizen. It is evident that no postponcment
will be granted from the time first design-
atcd-the 9Th Of September. The number
of recruits thus far received at the head

Our fellow citizen James Thompson gives
the Chicago Ecening Journal scathing re-
bukc, for its structures on the late Nation
al convention Of spiritualists Of which he
was member, and from what we know CT
the truthfullness and integrity of Mr..
Thompson as well as other members we
think The Jolrna! has placed itself in An un-
enviable position. Althoug We are not
spiritualists yet We think they ought to get
simple Justice, for We know that amongst
their millions Of adhcrants, there are men
and women who would he q credit to any
community, and although like all reform
srs, they may nave some seeming extrava-
gancics, yet these appear no worse than
Christianity did at It's first promulgation,
and may all become innocent to us as the
system grows in popular favor. We think
it i'll because the Gazette to Gull out the
nost scuruloss part Of the Journals report
and present it to ITS readers as truth, for Of

alist generally are the rarlkest aboltionists.
