A Nevada paper deseribesa curious scene
in theatre in Virginia City, in February,
where the performances of two actresses
were so well liked, that the audience rat
tied down upon the stsge a shower Of gold
snd silver pieces. The actresses picked up
one hundred and forty-seVen dollars from
the boards. Even the male performers
we're lot sighted. They picked up halves
and quarters to the amount of from three
to five dollars each TO say nothing of the
jack knives, pocket combs and tooth-picks.
The young ladies were so often forced to
return to gather the silver showers that
they appeared several times on the point If
giving it up. One of them, having finished
gathering bountiful harvest of halves, was
msking hssty retreat from the Stage,
when there suddenly fell about her such a
glitterirg and overwhelming shower of
silver, that in despair she sat down and
covered her face with her hands. The
pockets of another gave ont, and a torrent
Of silver rolled about the floor in every d.
rection. All this was, of course, fun for the
audience, though the young ladies found it
quite as profitable as funny.

Special Correspondence of the Cincinnati Gazette.
WARRINGTON, March 27.
OUR REPRESENTATIVES, IN PARIS.

GltCldl AOTIe1pOnutuCt VI NAnSAhAHtA OoAVNeSs
WASHINGTON, March q.
OUR REPRESENTATIVES, IN PARIS.
The appointment of John G.. Nicolay,
Private Secretary to the President as
Consul to Paris, followed, as it has just
been, by that of his associate Major John
Hay, of the Secretaryship of the Legs-
ton at the same place, will be gratefully
accepted as steps in the direction of max
ing fitness for the positions the test for
entrance into the diplomatic service. Ma
jor Hay, like Mr.. Nicolsy, is an accom-
plisked French scholar and gentleman
of culture and social refinement. Our
most serious peril abroad for the next four
years, lies in the direction of the Tuilleries.
It is fitting, therefore, that two gentlemen
so intimately acquainted with the whole
inner workings of the Administration
should reinforce Mr.. BigeloW at the point
of danger.
The entire representation of the Gov
ernment at the most important foreign
court thus becomes journalistic. MIR.
Bigelow was an associate of Mr.. Brysnts,
on the EUe,li'lg Post; Mr.. Nicolay has been
composition, foreman, proprietor and
editor in Western printing offices, and
Msior Hay vas at the time Of his appoint
ment IS Assistant Private Secretary to the
President, the Springfield correspondent of
the st. Louis Democrat. The whole re-
presentation is 8 fine example, as well, of
the infusion of young blood into our highest
places. Mr.. Bigelow must be nearly
twenty years younger than his predecessor
was; Msjor Hay is scarcely twenty-five,
and Mr.. NicOlny cannot be much ever
thirty.
THE ISSUE OF NASHVILLE RAID ON THE
TREASURY.
Some weeks ago 1 told the story Of GER
tain Nashville worthless who thought 1t
wise and profitable to protest some United
States coupons, and sent on sn insolent let
ter to the United States Treasurer, de-
msnding payment of coupons, notsrial
fees, costs of stamps etc. The sequel Of the
story can now be given. On discovering
into what an absurd position their impo.
tent malice against the Government had
led them, they sent an exceedingly hum
bic letter to the Government, regretting
the course they had taken, admitting its
folly, spologizing for their ill-temper, and
leaving the whole matter in General Spin
ners hands, to arrange IS he chose. The
old General was so grstiied with this, that
after paying their coupons, he spoke to the
Commissioner of Internal Revenue and had
him return other revenue stamps instead
of those which had been needlessly used On
the protests. The firm thus gets off with
only the loss of the notsri2l fees, amount
ing TO nearly as much as the face of the
coupons Ii collected

BEFORE PETERSBURG,
March Is, 1865. I
A week of stiff March winds has 80
thoroughly dried up the mud and pools,
that now a passing wagon train raises
clouds of dust that remind enc of the North
Anna and the Po. This sudden change
from the depths of mire to sufocating dust,
Is, think, something unusual for this lsti-
tude, and altogether unexpected by the
rulers of the Potomac army; but they
seem to have been only waiting for such
change TO enable them to swing clear of
their cid City Point base, and put off into
the wilderness of Southern Virgins, to cut
the jugular vein, through which the life of
the Confederscy pulsates from its body in
the Carolinss to Ifs head at Richmond.

LINE 10 BE ABANDoNED.

All the line from Fort He'll to the left
is to be abandoned, with its elaborate forts,
redoubts, batteries and redans. The work
Of months, now in finished condition, is
to be torn down, and blown up. Nothing
to be left except shspeless heaps of
dirt to distinguish the spot where once
stood perhaps the finest and most COM
plete field esrth-works that were ever built.
The ammunition from the various forts is
already removed, and the work of demol-
ishing commenced.

WHAT Is To BE DONE?

OF course the exact objective point of
General Grant is not known, so all can
say is what l infer from the various move
ments on foot. 1t appears to to be the i'm
preston here that our first march will be
directly south, toward Weldon, until the
Nottoway river is crossed, then right
wheel west, the left column moving on
BoydstowH and Dsnville, the centre on
Lewiston, and the right through Nottoway
to Burksville, all to concentrate either at
Dsnville or Burksville as circumstances
will warrant. This, however, is only con-
lecture, and before you read it the facts
will be before you. D
