MIR. MURRAYs BENEFIT TONIGHT. - Mr..
John Murray, with his popular Dramatic Com
pany, has been in this city since April 14th-
almost month-and during that time he has
been unwearied in his exertiors to please
and give the public satisfaction by producing
some of the most interesting plays ever pro-
duced on the American stage, and arranging
them with caste that made all the perform
ances pass off very smoothly and in way that
has given general delight to those present. At
first the audiences were SMALL but not being
discouraged, the managers lost no interest, and
every entertainment was produced with as
much care as though the hall had been dense
ly packed each evening. In consequence of
this the attendance has been steadily increas-
ing and the company has been constantly
growing in the favor of the people. We con-
slider Mr.. Murray the best comedian that
ever visited our city, and he shows natural
talent for comedy that make him favorite
wherever he appears. This evening he has a
benefit and the beautiful drama of "Flowers
of the Forest" will be performed, in which
Mrs. Murray will make her first appearance in
her native city as starlight Bess." Let him
have an encouraging house,-as he deserves it
and that it may be shown that something be-
sides swindling "Gift Show can draw an
audience in this city.

INTERESTING DISCOVERY.
At meeting of the Portland Society of
Natural History held May z, a number of in
teresting statements in relation to the occur
renee of our native plants and animals were
made. The rare shell, Helix multidentata,
before known by only a few specimens, was re-
ported as occurring abundantly in wood
on Cape Elizabeth, while the Blood Root,
(Sanguinaria Canadensis) has been found this
spring in profusion in Westbrook. But the
most interesting and remarkable event of the
evening was the presentation of a Pteropod,
(Chone borealis) marine animal of the Arctic
seas, which has been discovered by Mr.. G. B
Fuller in large quantities in our harbor q
This animal belongs to division of the Mol
lusca called Pteropoda or "Wing-foot" from
the swimming appendages which resemble the
organs Of flight in birds. Only six species are
known to occur on the coast from the Arctic
seas to Georgia. They are most abundant in
the extreme Northern or Southern oceans.
Some possess delicate CLASSY or horny shell,
while the Clone is entirely naked, and of
consistency not much greater than that of the
common jelly-fsh. 1t is a very singular sight

It's wings much more nervously, and gambols
about the jar like a miniature and baltAedcod
robin.
1t is not known that the Clone has evar
been seen so far to the southwark before
Packard reports it as abundant on the coast of
Labrador This is probably the extreme south
ern limit of the species, and we are no doubt
indebted to the persistency of our cold term"
for these fairy-like visitors in our harbor. Is
our climate so changing its temperate quality
that ARCTIC animals find in our waters con-
genial home?
Specimens of the living Clone may be seen
to-day at the stores of Lowell and Senter
where they have been deposited by the Society.

THE lovers of the equestrian drama will be
pleased to learn that on Tuesday next the ac-
complshed artistic, Miss Kate Fisher, with her
beautiful horse, Aurora, will inaugurate Sc
ries of performances of the sensational order,
commencing with the romantic drama of MA
zeppa." This notice is taken from the Boston.
Express:
HOWARD ATHENEUM.-The performances 4
Miss Kate Fisher, which begun on Monday,
have been very successful. There is class at
least of the public which has thorough fond
ness for equestrian acting as illustrated by fe-
males, especially if it possesses the requisite
dash and abandon; which, it may safely be
said, Miss Fisher does possess. She is certain
ly among the best of her school, and is surpass-
ed by none. Even Menken is not ahead of her
in real merit. Miss Kate has a fine figure and
displays it to advantage. She has also real
skill in the management of the animal horse,
and for pluck and nerve, leaves nothing want
ing. To this we may add good dramatic tai
ents. She rides horse like man in two
fold sense, and dramatically acts like a wo-
man. We do not know that we can pay her
better compliments than the foregoing. At
least she deserves it. "Mazeppa" is the only
equestrian drama in which she has yet ap-
peared. This has been so successful and at
tractive that no change has been required.
Miss Fisher appeared at her benefit on Friday
evening in "The Young Actress" personating
five characters, and displ ying no little versa
tiIity and excellence, ea.
