GLENN's THEATRE.-Much to the surprise and
disappointment of the theatre going folks, late
yesterday afternoon they received the announce
ment that Miss Mitchell would not appear last
night as had been widely advertised.
We know nothing, nor do we care to know, of
the difficulties which caused this sudden termina-
ton of what appeared to us a successful engage
ment. Miss Mitchell has frequently appeared on
the Norfolk stage land she has reason to know that
she has many warm admirers in this city. We
trust that she has some good reason for thus sud
denly disappointing public expectation, for how
ever much we may admire the genius of this
charming actress, yet the public have rights which
should certainly be respected by any candidate for
PUBLIC favor.
Notwithstanding the sudden withdrawal of
Miss Mitchell, the creditable Stock Company
"wheeled into line," and the evenings entertain
ment passed off most pleasantly.

WILLIAM AND Many CoILReE.-We regret to
learn that this time-hopored institution is not
meeting with that encouragement, TINS session,
that deserves At the hands Of the people of the
State of Virginia This old Commonwealth has
many reasons. why she should be grateful to this
venerable Alma Iater-and this, above all others,
10 the time when she should come forward and
show her gratitude. William and Mary was
founded in 1892 and since that time has so inter
woven its history with that of Virginia, has been
so completely identified with all her glorious past,
that Virginia cspnot claim to have returned to
her former prosperity until old William and Mary
has been entirely resuscitsted and has once more
entered upon that course OF prosperity winch mas
marked ifs career for the past century and halt
Circumstances have conspired to cripple its
usefulness for while, and before the directory
can hope to fully restore that usefulness, buildings
must be erected at considerable cost and great in
convenience. In view of this state OF affairs, we
Wonld urge, as measure of policy, the removal
Of the college to this city, where all the conve-
nience for building can be found; where all the
necessary accommodation for board for students
may be had; and where the salubrity of climate,
the delightful society, and the small cost for NV
ing, render it, "a peculiarly desirable location.
We have hardly time to enlarge upon this sub
ject to-day but will take occasion to say that the
city of Norfolk is prepared to furnish the DIrec,
toFyyfree of cost, with all the necessary ground
Tor the location of the buildings, and many OF our
nest citizens are prepared to exert themselves for
the future success of the Institution. Wehave nc
desire to injure the classic old town of Williams
burg; it is the place of our birth and the home
Of our childhood, and we will ever venerate it al
such, evenif there were not other ana more gen
sral considerations to endear it to us But We
also love that old Institution which has given US
the men who have made the history of our native
State, and In the, pieHitude OF that love we are
urgent advocates for its removal to this city, be
cause we are thoroughly convinced that al 1T
