As we anticipated in our notice of yes.
terday he glowed forth in the full geni-
atty Of his natural d~eliueative charac-
ter-the serio-eccentric comedian and
dramatist. To o keen conception Of the
whimsical and comic, he unites a true
appreciation of what dramatic delinea-
tons should be, NJ ~personated by the
finished artist and gentleman. His au-
dience certainly was better pleased with
him last evening than on any previous
occasion, and he was more perfectly at
home in the characters he assumed. In
the first play-"T The Dsbutante he
was n s~uperanuated old French come
dian full OF ~pleasurable "reminiscences OF
past glories on the stage, and confidence
in his present dramatic abilities and
Judgment, rs well us Of the great incipi-
cnt star talent developing in his daugh-
ter. His peculiar make up, his broken
French dialect, aud above all, his whim-
sically grandiloquent style, were ludi-
crous And amusing in the extreme, and
,unequalfed by anything we have yet
~seeuiu that line. As for that matter, the
piece itself, is the best and most pleasing
comic drama which has ever been pro-
duced on that stage, being fresh and
new, and in our estimation much excel
ling the one which followed-"A Bull
in a China Shop" In this last piece,
however, rs Bagshott," Mr.. Wheat
leigh made a great hit. The character
assumed is similar to /" Sam" and gave
even better satisfaction. "Sam" was
whca,leigh's best deliueation hereto
fore. His "Shaun the Post" and
"Salem Seudder" are far inferior to
his " Bagshott." In the iuterlude be-
tween the pieces he sang " Wilkins
and his Dinah." His makeup was
good and his facial expression reminded
one Of Yankee Plummer, but he is not a
FIRST class singer aud added not to his
laurcls in resurreeting that long defnuct
old song. Miss Firmiu's ballad was
very pleasingly and swectly sung aud
well received. Miss Huxley being sick
was net able to appear, but she was not
particularly missed, as her place vas
ably and correctly filled by Fanny Hanks
in the first piece, and Amanda Lee in the
ScCOuu. NOOuiIu NSs ouAN sSSOuu w

throughout. Miss Josephine played last
evening better than ever before. She
improves very fast. The same bill is to
be played tonight. Go everybody and
see the fun.
GREAT PANIC AT SILVER !-TwIy FLAT
TO Be EvAcUArxp.-0n the North side
of Gold Couyon, at the upper end Of
Silver City, is u little fiat on which
stands abou, n dozen small houses, oe-
cupied by employees of mills, mines, and
others with their families. About four
years ago, two pairs Of twins were born
there, which sensational little episode
gave the locality the name of "Twin
Flat" which it has borne ever since.
Several matrons a. that time objected
to such n state of affairs and talked
about moving away, aad some two
years age when another pair Of twins
were born, some families did pack up
and leave. On Wednesday evening last,
the wife of u s~tone-mason living on the
Flat, most Unexpectedly presented her
liege lord with q pair Of fine boys.
This is too much. Those last twins are
the hair that breaks the camers c
USuch conducts n, those +" couldn't DO
be stood no longer. Every family has
resolved to move away forthwith. Not
u woman can be induced to stay Tor
even n week longer. Such infringe
ments are not to be endured. They are
packing up and e~vacuaiing. No more
Twin Flat. II was u judgment on the
place that about half OF that ~scaudalous
little Hat WAS washed away by the
floods last Winter, but it is nll over with
now. None but. single bachelors may
reside there hereafter.
woS'r AFFILIATE.-Several OF the
most prominent and efficient physicians
and s~urgeons.of Virginia city have con-
centrated their Offices into the upper
story of a certain building on south c
street, probably with the purpose OF be-
ing prepared to sally forth at any tint
in organized attack on any complicated
or dangerous case of sickness or cpl
demic that may dare to rear its heaa In
the community. 1t is q regular college
of doctors-so to speak-and perhaps
mighty effective where consultation and
concert Of action is required, and might
be still more so, but that-as one OF
them informs us-Dr. Hop Lock, the
celestial medicus who holds forth further
along the street, totally refuses to con-
suit or connect himself in any way with
them. He says he will only consult
with those brothers of the profession
whose medical responsibility n capa-
bili,y he approves of aud indorses.

SrRISxLISa OUR SrRrErs.-While ouE
unfortunate neighbors up in Horntowu
arc wading ha~if-boot-leg deep in mud
and slum-gravy, u streets have be-
come dry, firm, and agreeable. They
had even began to get a little dusty,
