Work WANTED.-The Sisters of the
Good Shepherd, as our readers are aware,
have established a Home, in Franklinton,
for the friendless girls and women. That
these poor ones may not eat the bread of
idleness, and become worse instead of bet
ter, the Sisters require them to do so much
work each day, teaching them to earn their
own living and to be independent. Some
of them have reached degree of profcien-
cy with the needle almost marvellous. Their
great want now is work. They ask our
citizens to furnish them with needle work
of all kinds. Worsted and linen embroid-
cry is,exeeuted in manner unsurpassable.
All the work at the Home is done prompt
ly and well. Those of our lady or gentle
man readers who need sewing done, are,
earnestly to leave their directions
in the Postoffice, addressed to care of box
354. and the Sisters will call for the work
in any portion of the city, or the work may
be left at the Home in Franklinton. Terms
moderate. mar16-d1m

NEW YORK, April 13.-The Herald's Mat

that the recent engagement resulted in an.
Imperial defeat.i The fighting was veIy

Escobedo to be very heavy on both sides. -

ordering six grains of tartar emetic, which
in itself was sufficient to kill tour persons
If people would for one moment consider
how easily remedies can be procured,

! The BLACK CRooK.-The immense audi
'ence in attendance at the Opera House On
Saturday night testified to the still para
mount and growing interest telt in this
magnificent spectacle. The piece is now
working as smoothly as could be desired,
and there are no waits or want of words on
the part of performers. Gentlemen who
have witnessed the play at Niblo's Garden
i'm New York, assure US that the play Is
produced here in as good style, and the va
-rious characters are as well sustained here
as there. Particularly is this true of the
characters of the Black Crack, or ,Hertzog.
Dame Barbara, Rodolph, aud Puffengruntz.
The character of Hertzog is strictly a
character part,"' difficult to make, mp, and
hard to play, and Mr.. Griffith, we will ven
;ture to say, cannot be exeelled in it any
where. It could not be better. There is a
iollity of tone and manner, and a comicali-
ty of expression in Puffengruntz, as played
by Mr.. John Matthews. that wins upon the
audience, and makes them feel that tht
part lis in good hands. The same is true OF
Dame Barbara. We can say for Mrs. Wal
cutt that with but one exception, we con-
slider her the best :" old woman" we'evel
saw on the stage. and that's a pretty big
assertion OF the dancing we have already
spoken. .M,dlle Augusta is one Of the most
attractive dancers of the day. She dances
as though it were the height OF enjoyment
for her, as it is "a delight for her auditors
Senoritta Jovetta is not less pleasing, and
as we have said, by herself, would taxi
fr6Et rank. She follows the art. Her
poises are alias correct as mathematical
accuracy can make them, but have not that
bewitehing spirit of deviltry, if we MAJ
use the term, that makes Augusta so at
traetiye. We must leave notice of the
singing, and Of the mechanical appliances
for another day. Tonight, for the first
time, we are TO have introduced the greai
New York sensation of the ssDemon
Dance,n which comes on at about $3.50
This is said to be the greatest thing ever
produced, There will be grand Black
Crook Matinee on next Saturday afternoon
for the children. The performance on that
day win be arranged expressly for the
