New MEMPHIS THEATER, Miss Ceoile
Rush engagement commenced last night
with East Lynne She possesses a fine
figure and face, and is very fine reader,
her enunciation being clear and distinct
AT times she is disposed to tear syllables
to tatters, but as whole her elocution is
superior to that of the majority of the
profession. Miss Rush's LADY Isabel I"
and Madame Vine" while not superior,
were quite creditable presentations. Of
course they will not prove acceptable to
those educated to the standard formed by
Avonia Jones. Madame Vine was the
better personation Of the two, although
in both she was frequently applauded
Mr.. Roche's "Sir Francis Levison,"
like his presentations generally, lacked
spirit he evidently regards the illus
tration of his claims to fine figure the
paramount consideration, and would
prove a magnificent success did tableau@
constitute our dramatic performances.
Miss Fanny Pierson was very good as
A" Barbara Hare" despite the fact that
the character was out of her line; and
Mr.. Ferguson's Richard Hare" was
not quite failure. Mr. Lowry, who
was short time a member of the stock
company during the Tannehill misman-
agement reappeared last night as Arch
ibald Carlyle" He is not the most
promising actor in America, but would
shine in parts where oral utterances are
not deemed necessary. To night we are
to have the Long Strike, piece which
has created sensation wherever pre-
scented. There should be another fine
house.

"0ne of the most brilliant parties
ever assembled in this city, occurred
at the residence of Judge Turner
on Wednesday night last, on the
occasion of the return of Capt. Wilbur
+. Henry, a brother of Mrs. Turner,
from Memphis, Tenn, with his bride,
the wedding having taken place in that
city on the 2lst inst. The fashion, elite
and beauty of Pekin thronged the spa

enjoyment pervaded all present, and
everything went merry as marriage
bell, fifty ushering in thanksgiving morn.
The Captain and his beautiful bride have
our sincerest wishes for long life of
happiness and substantial prosperity"
