ENGAGEMENT OF TRULY GREAT ACTOR,

"The opening of this gentleman's engage.
ment last night, was hailed by vastly crowd
ed and most enthusiastic house, To the lovers
Ct genuine Drama and the admirers of true
histrionic talent, he has proved himself a de-
clded attraction, equaling our highest expec-
tation. His acting evinces great research, a.
refined classical taste and a chaste and vigor-
Gus conception, blended with dignity, grace,
and high artistical finish, causing the specta-
tor to lose the actor in the noble Roman, bur
rying him along with his own impulses, his
startling bursts of feeling, his tender pathetic
passages, which are given with chaste and
expressive style, deeply touching the heart;
asserting the mastery of the soul as well as the
Judgment. His Virginius Is the embodiment
of true paternal love for an idolized daughter
and for him who sought the destruction
anger, scorn revenge and maddened despair
the gushing forth from the deep fountain of
feeling, the headlong rush of the wild and
stormy passions Of mans nature-tbat kindle
and leave their traces upon the imagination
and wind themselves with magic power around
the sympathies. His attitudes are in perfect
harmony with his beautiful defamation. which
is not the result of mere study OF refined art:
and being sustained by noble, physical power

Effect of the Assassination at Havana,

A business circular from q leading house in
Havana, received by one ofour city merchants,
opens thus: 9saas - sa'sia ssoAN - o4s1~
"The dreadful news brought US By the Lib
erty from New York, caused a very painful
sensation in this community. Fears were en-
tertained that the wanton assassination of
President Lincoln was only the precursor of O
no less dreadful course of events, and all
awaited with the greatest anxiety the arrival
Of the MORO Castle. The news brought by
this steamer was an agreeable surprise to all,
and proved the beautiful organization of your
government" y
Nothing has ever more emphatically demon
strated the strength and stability Of our Gov
ment, than the smooth. easy manner in which
the terrible shock OF the late assassination was
met by the national authority, At 7.22 A. NJ
Mr.. Lincoln breathed his last, and at eleven
o'clock of the same morning, his successor
was clothed with full power, and the ship of
state glided on as smoothly as though no tenn
pest had rufied the surface of the waters
The effect, too, upon the gold market was
scarcely perceptihle. The assassination OF
the French Emperor would probably precipi-
tate bloody revolution In that empire in
twenty-four hours. r,4ls.g a s5c Z
