GLENN's THEATRE.-Last evening Shaks-
peare's sublime tragedy of Macbeth was gwen
to full house, and Mr.. Proctor fully sustain
ed all his former reputation in the difficult
character of Macbeth. His splendid physique,
noble bearing, impressive delivery and COM
manding appearance, amply qualify him for
the task and fully entitle him to rank, as he
does the ablest representative of the character
in this country; replete with originality, care
full study, and scholarly finish his Macbeth
was applauded at every step at once placed
him in the front rank of living actors.
Mrs. Fred Meek played the difficult role of
Lady Macbeth with more than her usual good
taste, and, not only delighted, but astonished
her many admirers. Her progressing APP
pearance, physical ability, correct conception
and undoubted histrionic ability was fully de-
veloped in this character, and her admirable
rendition of it won for her many new friends.
The play for this evening is the romantic
and thrilling drama called the "Nick Of the
Woods" with Mr. Proctor as the JibbeJ7'aiRo-

MAYORS CoURT.-W. r. Flemming, mem
toned Yesterday as having been re-arrested In
Portsmouth, and as having performed the
aouatc feat of jumping from the ferry-boat
md swimming ashore, was brought into court
yesterday morning, evidently before he had
boen allowed to visit a barber shop, and ar
roipned on the double charge of being drunk
and disorderly, and of escaping from the Gus
todv of the officer of Justice, by jumping over
tbe brick wall at the watch house-nothing
was said of his jumping off the ferry-boat-by
the use of sundry boxes, which be piled, one
on the other. He looked the very personifi-
cation of repentance and the incarnation Of
MISUNDERSTANDING he plead heartily,
and was prodigsl in his promises, but they
were of no avail His Honor bid him take
his seat on the left hand, where there's weep
ing and crashing of teeth. He will have
another hearing, and it is possible, that the
charge of escaping from custody, may get him
into serious trouble.
Biddy Donevant wanted her wages; she
had worked for thin like man, and was
Going to l1iv thin, so she would )" so she got
cash warrant against her former employer and
had the matter investigated before the Mayor.
Biddy recovered the amount, and then dis
charged her employer, determining to employ
some one else as her master.
Mr. Burgess was charged with running a
wagon on the street without having applied
for a license. 1t appeared that Mr.. B., who
is butcher, was in the market-house instead
of being in the courthouse, to attend to his
ease,f SO the Mayor postponed it until this
morning
Mr.. j. NJ Jennings had lost his carriage;
OF rather, the military had borrowed but
never returned it while passing through the
streets he came across it in Nelson's carriage
shop-that place where they always obstruct
the pavement with the fossil remains of rural
earriages-and claimed it; but Mr.. Spill
man claimed it also; thereupon, Mr.. Jennings
gets out a warrant of detinue, and brought the
matter before the Executive of the civil law
and that functionary had determined, and so
expressed it. that he would hold the matter for
consideration, and give his decision this
morning At this juncture, Mr.. Spillman de-
manded that the warrant be dismissed; this
the Mayor declined to do, and repeated his
determination to defer his Judgment. Mr..
Spillman then produced formidable sized
official envelope, which he handed to His
Honor; and from the remarks Of His Honor,
that he s'did not think the military had any
thing to do with the case, that civil law was
restored we were led to infer, that the docu-
ment was of a military nature, and perhaps
was an order to stay proceedings in the case.
However, be it what it may the Mayor adj
hered to his decision, and deferred the case for
future hearing.

81 iRENcoNrRE Some difference of opinion
between Messrs. E. Baker and j. M. Cren-
shaw, led to personal rencontre on Main
street yesterday morning. The latter gentle
man attacked the former in the vicinity Of
the Atlantic Hotel, and pitched in with such
a piae that Mr.. Baker thought it prudent to
withdraw He accordingly beat retreat,
but was closely pressed by the enemy, who
hung upon his rear and by divers and sundry
demonstrations, rather accelerated his speed
Finally, Mr. B. fell back to, and entrenched
himself in, Keho's tailoring establishment, but
the attacking party, acting upon the princi-
pies as laid down in Jon'ini, pressed his sue
cesses SO closely that the defence had no time
to prepare; consequently the stronghold was
carried by storm, and Mr.. B. went under.
About this time reinforcements came up, and
the parties were separated, or rather Mr..
Crenshaw was taken away from the object of
his delicate attentions, and the whole case was
adjourned to the Mayors Court.

children followed, tho old folks scolded; the
neighbors rushed in, the inmate rushed out;
one of the party got his feet tangled in hoop
