in that department.
The United, States gunboat HPembina," Lieut.
commanding Jones, left herea few days ago to
be paid off, and put out of commission at the
Washington Navy Yard This place and Ports
mouth need some one badly to represent their in
terests at the seat of government, whereas, now
they have no one. The putting the "Pembina"
out of commission here would have thrown into

work for large number of workmen when the

G1ENNs THEArRE.--1n no character has Miss
Kate Reynolds so well displayed her personal
charms as in the Angel of Lore. With form as
faultless as Apolos, features as beautiful as Mar
cissus', and carriage as graceful as the fawn's,
she was the very personifcation of Cupid, and
the beau ideal of all that is lovely and loyable ;
indeed, a perfect looe Of angel, and as thor
oughly natural and graceful if she was the Boy
God himself. Nature has been so prodgal in her
gifts to this young artist, that she required no
culver, or bow, or arrow, but by one grand coup
de main, of beauty and grace, she carried the
hearts Of the rougher sex by storm. Of the play
ITSELF as put on the stage by manager Glenn, we
cannot say so much We have seen this grand
spectacle drama produced with more scenic effect
and have witnessed more magnificent and start
ling tablcaar vi-vants than has been produced in
this arrangement but, altogether, it was credit
able and worthy of the patronage it received
Some of us may regret that the legitimate drama
has given place to this cd cap tandum style; but
the people are to blame; so long as it pays will
managers feel assured that it is popular, and the
drama give way for the melodrama. Nor is it
singular to our age or day; even as far back as
the days of Horace, as he tells us himself, did
managers cater for the eye instead of the ear.
Besides it is fashionable. La belle France sets all
our fashions, and as sensational and spectacular
plays the order of the day there, SO must they
be here. ts5 5{f sst tstaa 5ts
Tonight, however, we have a. change; Man
ager Glenn has determined to crafty the tastes of
all, and will, this evening, produce George Cole
mans celebrated comedy called the Jealous Wife,
with Miss Reignolds as Mrs. 0aAly; to conclude
with that charming drama, Andy Blake, in which
Miss Reynolds personates Andy. This is one OF
the best bills of the season. and cannot fail to at
