PIrrR's OPERA HoUsE.-The Virginia
Fire Department probably netted $500
toward the desired purchase of hose by
their benefit last evening at the Opera
House, as the house was densely crowd
ed in every part. The beautiful domes.
tic drama OF the " Chimney Corner
was once moro produced, and gave bet.
ter satisfaction than ever before. Mr..
Couldock, rs "Petcr Probity," won
new laurels, aud never appeared to
a advantage. His rendition was
heartfelt, natural aud good, carrying
the symPathies Of the entire audience
with him throughout. Grace Emery
was cxcellently enacted by Miss Coul.
dock, as was also Mrs. Probity," by
Fanny Hanks. Tho " Charles Chiefly u
Of Piorpont Thayer was n very correct
and finished piece of acting, such MS Is
expected Of him. Burbank, AS old
Grandfather Probity,", and Robinson,
rs "Johu Probity," were fully up to the
mark, and even Sparrow was not un.
worthy of his Makers notice in his per-
souatiou Of esther" The piece itself
is a perfect little gem, possessing II
lively interest throughout, and we con-
slider it the best aud most satisfactorily
effective Of Mr.. Couldock's pieces thus
far. The entertainment concluded with
n select and pleasing intcrlude. Miss
Sue Robinson sang her now song OIL
I" Who Wouldn't be n Fireman's OAR
ling" with fine effect and great APP
plause. She appeared in firoman's hat
and red shirt, and in response to loud
encoros, sang Champagne Charlie In
n manner not to be excelled. The
"Firemen's Address" was well given
BY Pierpont Thayer, Notwithstanding
the very limited time given him 10
study il. The due, Of Miss Josephine
and Barnwell WAS sung sweetly and
with taste, aud the Highland Fling OF
Amanda Lee, and the song and dance
of Johnny Tuers were received with
much favor. The music by the orches-
ira throughout was well worthy OF par
ticular notice. The opening overture
given, was the "Caliph Of Bagdad,"'
one Of the finest pieces Of music imsg-
Unable, and thinner, the talented young
yiolinist and leader Of the orchestra, in
trodneed his original and highly credit
able composition, the "Chnmpagne
Charlie Polka" II was most brilliantly
executed. This finishes up the legiti-
mate for the present, as in consequence
Of other arrangements made this morn
ing, the Opera House will be opened to-
night rs a frst-class melodeon, with tue
best Company on the coast. See nd
