OF pubic resort, lust'uou " wv P"A"-
mount attractions presented on the
stage every evening. Everything in
and about the theater is arranged in the
most systematic and judicious manner,
and all the appointments are excellent.
John Woodland is the best stage man
ager on the coast. John Piper, himself,
attends to the box Office, and Henry
Piper regulates the interior. Joseph
Hayton, like n faithful sentinel, guards
the main entrance TO the dress circle at
the head of the stairs leading down
into the parquette, acting also in con-
junction with Peter HUFF, as watchman
about the building until after daylight
each morning. Lastly, yet by no means
the least important in the operations
and affairs of the Opera Rouse, we Will
mention John Rosenbrock, the hand
some Young man who pres'des IN the
multifarious capacity of bar-keeper,
clerk, secretary, treasurer, and general
inside business agent, for the whole es-
adjustment. John is as modest and
u~uassuming in his demeanor as he is
homes, and correct in business transac-
tons, and has no enemies even among
the ladies; he is too amiable and good
looking to allow Of that.
HoRSrowS JupicIARY.-Constable Pat
Lannan, q good consistent Democrat in
Virginia city, the other day had a small
case brought before him involving the
rights of property between n white man
and some colored persons. with all
the consummate assurance which might
be expected from q Horntown Constable,
he coolly ruled u the testimony of the
colored people, declaring the Civil Rights
Bill TO be unconstitutional. We do not
refer to this rs any special matter OF
ours, but simply rs an instance OF the
refreshing wisdom negotiating within the
classic precincts Of Horntown. They
can do something up there besides eat
squaw, horse. or donkey meat. Black
stone is woefully cclipsed by the judicial
brilliance Of Lauuan, and the American
Congress set at naught by Horntown
Constable. All Pat, verify thou art a
Jolly Joker, and a brick OF the very hrst
water. May the devil and Andy John
son never cease to admire thee. elbow
We the trumpet, blow y Horntown
forever.

day before yesterday morning a little
cabin, in TIE rear Of Gibson 4 Cross
saloon, on Main street, occupied by an
old man, was entered during his absence
and robbed Of blankets, clothing aud
other property, none of it of much value

the low minded thief seek some one to
rob other than II poos, destitute old
man? Officer Ne~iswiadcr, down in the
station.house luxuriates among plenty
Of blankets, purple and fine linen,
and an aniuencc Of good grub; why
mot give him n call? Constable Higgins
has his eve on whom he believes to be
the mean rascal, and may catch him
out yet.
CLEARING OFF THE SiDEwALKs.-The

two or three days, or Grating in a dis

masses, hillocks and frozen seas Of ice
and snow, especially along the Virginia
sidewalks, has induced people generally
