ILLINOIS STATE REaIsTER.-We welcome
again TO our table the old familiar face of the
Illinois State Register, 1.-THE central organ of
the democracy of Ilinois) which has been re-
vised under the auspices and editorial man
agement of Hon John W. Merritt, a gentle
mae who has been forty years connected
with the newspaper press. We hope the pat.
ronage extended to the State Register will be
such as to make it one of the first papers in
the state.

ZIP was most decided failure, having not
enough of plot to be interesting, and no wit or
piquaney whatever, while the acting, through
out, was so dull snd common place as to be
hardly bearable. 1t is true that the leading
character, Miss Carrie Lester. was, from in
disposition, scarcely able to move from her
room, and probably the audience excused
much on that account, but the peice has
scarcely redeeming trait. and is not worth
repeating anywhere.
The ''stock" did we'll, considering that the
peice left them very little of interest to do,
and Brace, who always does we'll, was the
'nQes interesting character in the piece.
The bill for tonight is new one, but
whether the acting will be improved We can
not say.
