UNDERGROUND Theatre.

A foreign paper contains the following in
relation to an underground theatre:
The fearful heat of summer in Paris proves
fatal to purses of all managers of theatrical
entertainments. A Dutch Spectator, M. Bis
hofshiem by name, hopes that he has discov-
cred the secret which will solve the problem
of how to enjoy a theatrical performance while
Fahrenheit marks 90 in the shade. M. Bis
hohshiem has conceived the idea, which he is
of course carrying out, of a subterranean the
atre. Startling as this may read, it is never
theless fact, as any one who walks along the
Rue Scribe can attest, the excavation being
commenced at the angle of that street and
the Rue Neuse DIES Matthurini, behind the
new opera. This theatre will cost M. Bishof-
shiem the trihing sum of 100000, the pllr-
chase money of the ground being included in
that calculation. The subterranean theatre
will not be completed for two years The pit
is to be twenty-four feet below the surface Of
the ground; the stage will measure one hun
bred feet in length and fifty feet in width
The theatre itself will be thirty-six feet high
A circle of iron columns are intended to sup
port the floor of the first tier of boxes The
atmosphere of the pit is to be cooled by sew
eral gets d'eau. Five tiers of boxes will rest
on the capitals of the iron columns

Our state Convention.


The editors of the Fayetteville Netos pokes
fun at the Convention as follows:
North Carolina has had gathered in Con-
ventlon her wise member Bedford Brown
her Nat. Boyden-her Sam Philipo-her
Bobby Dick-her Bat Moore-and her Nc
Donald, of Moore. And they have got off an
extraordinary thing in the shape of an Cor
"diLa,- k,usnich cannot fail in after genera
tons to acclaim each and every one of these
distinguished lights to imperis6able celebrity.
The Ordinance" though not worded ex-
actly as this which follows is in subsistence
the same.
Reso1red. That we are going home to re-
take the places around the old family heart
stone that have never been vacated by us;
and that we are going to rejoin our brethren,
from whom we have never been parted.
Resolved. That we wish it distinctly under
stood that we rescind the secession ordinance,
because we fear if we do not we cannot get
back into the Union; but at the same time.
Resolved. That there never has been in ex-
istance, or in force, any ordinance of secession;
and if there has been, we are afraid to say 80,
for fear of offending the authorities.
Resozoed. That Dixie is no longer pretty
tune, and the parable of the prodigal son is
some pumpkins"

Prentice ON pardons.

The Louisville Journal, of the 10th inst,
says editorially:
In our opinion, the men who held the high
est position in the Confederacy during the late
rebellion, are the very men, whom, if they
will take the oath of loyalty, is the most i'm
portant to pardon. They held high positions
because they were deemed qualified for them
They were elected because those who knew
them confded in their ability. They rose SUI
perior to those around them because they were
superior. They were the leaders because they
were the men whom the people chose to fol-
low.
We say, that, if such men are willing to re-
turn to their loyalty, they are exactly the
men whose services in their own section the
Federal Government and the country want at
this time. We need all the Southern intellect
that can possibly be enlisted in the tremend-
ously important work of pacifcation and re-
construction. This surely is no time for put
ting the ban of prescription upon the master
spirits of the South simply because they are
master-spirits. Let us avail ourselves of their
power.

Another Account OF How JEFF. Davis
was Captured.

According to the New York World Juago
Regan, of Texas, while in that city on We'd
nesday last, gave the following version of the
way in which JEFF, Davis happened to be cap
turod in female apparel: " Mr., Davis, imme-
diately on hearing the firing, sprang from the
place where he had been passing the night
and advanced toward the door Of the tent.
As he did so, thinking that the firing proceed
ed from the marauders of the Alabama brig
ade, who probably had come in contact with
his own small escort, intent on plumber and
carnage, he exclaimed aloud: 'Those men
have attacked us at last surely I have au-
thority enough left to prevent my own men
from killing one another Saying this he
opened the door of the tent, and was just
stepping out when his wife, either beside her.

what were the nature of her acts. OF thinking
that the garment might render him unrecog-
