New MEMPHIS THEATRE-Arrah ma
Pogus still holds good at this house,
with no signs of losing its drawing pow
ers for some time to come, as the lovers
of a pretty drama, good acting and ex-
cellent stage effects were out in as large
force as usual last night Those who
take an interest in theatrical affairs are
profuse in their praise of Mr.. Dfayton,
stage manager, for the splendid cast of
characters and good arrangement Of
stage affairs. He is thoroughly acquain-
ted with his business, and seems willing
to give the patrons Of the New Memphis
the benefit of his experience. The
knowing ones cannot find words sufficient
to express their admiration for Miss
Charlotte Thompson's histrionic ability.
All who have seen Mr.. Wheelock as
Shaun" give him credit for being as
good delineator Of Irish character as
those who make that line a specially
He is intirely" the warm-hearted, no.
BILE and impulsive yorTg man that Bour-
cicault intended "Shaun to be. II
Mr.. Hubbard had not already gained an
enviable reputation, his Michael Fee
NJ" would secure it for him. This is
Mr. Lanagans second season here, and
he has never yet appeared to disadvan-
tage. Mr.. and Mrs MarstOn, Mrs. Lie
wellyn and several others deserve praise
for their general efficiency. This even.
ing Arrdh ma Pogue appears again, and
any one who wishes to see one Of the
best Irish dramas yet written should be
there.

ATTEMPT TO BREAK JAIL-PRTsoNER
WoUNDED.-About five O clock this morn
ing the Waterman on duty in rear of the
county Jail observed negro emerging
from hole in the wall. He drew his
pistol and fired at him, striking him in
the leg and causing his retirement He
then fred two shots through crack in
the fence at another negro who had
reached the ground, without hitting him.
The firing aroused the jailor and his as
sistants, who secured the negro On ex-
animation it was found that the hole was
in the south wall, third story, from a
room where nineteen negroes were con-
fined, for various crimes against the
State. They had removed several bricks,
made blanket rope, and in few min
utes, if not discovered, all would have
been free. The hole was made in exact
ly the same place from whence some
prisoners escaped about three months
since, and some more about year pre-
vious to that time. That hole should be
iron clad.
