CoMING.-It will do the ''new moves
ment" folks good to read what the reign
ing Prince of the House of Bourbon in
Virginia says in behalf of the '.Trae Re-
publican" ticket. The Enquirer can't
stand it any longer /; it has to come out
in behalf OF the course of common sense.
1t is big thing to convert so ponder
Gus" a Bourbon as the Enquirer TO our
side. We can tell Col. Withers, if he
amt very spry we shall soon have sew
eral more OF his wheel-horses hitched up
to the "new movement" car. They are
very restless now under the Bourbon

slip the bit out of their mouths. The
Colonel's car will thea be stuck hard
and fast in the mud of old togyism.

THU FRUIT DAMAGE.-The heavy
frost in this neighborhood on Sunday
night last, we learnfrom people in the sur
rounding country, damaged some of the
forward fruit considerably. The Peach
and Plum, as we'll as the Cherry and
Pear trees, in the interior were severely
nipped by the frost, while those near
the rivers escaped unhurt. Some of
the earlier strawberries were also nip
ped.-But the damage, as a general
thing, is considered light, and hopes are
entertained of good fruit crop this
year, if it should not be again overtaken
by the frost. Some few of our truck
ers had set out a portion of their tomato
plants, and these We regret to say were
slightly damaged, though the tomato
crop this year, it is thought will be a
very fine one. ..s
The wild strawberries are damage d,
with the earlier sort of strawberries.

Be CAREFUL 1T is remarkable how
few accidents occur from the careless
ness of those who so intrepidly jump
upon the ferry boats when leaving Or
approaching their wharf. Frequently
are they admonished by Mr.. Porter, the
superintendent; but regardless of his
warnings, they persist in risking life tc
save five or ten minutes of time. Nc
longer than yesterday, we saw several
gentlemen leap from the wharf upon the
boat, but at great risk. We would

Of an Insurance Department in Pennsylvania.
II appears by the Auditor Generals report
that more than thirty thousand dollars we're
paid by the Commonwealth to the late District
Attorney of this oity for examining, ia 1867
and 1868, the books of the foreign insurance
companies transscting business in Philadel-
phia, and smaller payments we're made for
similar purposes to the District Attorneys of
Luzerne and Allegheny counties. These ex-
aminations no doubt served to increase the
revenues of the Commonwealth, but they fur
nished little or no Information to the public, in
an authentic shape, to protect insurers, to ex-
pose frauds, and to establish insurance on the
sound basis it has attained in other States.
The interests of the Pennsylvania companies
are also injured by the present system. II
the Legislature could be persuaded to devote
few days to their legitimate public business,
they could speedily provide for the establish
ment of an Insurance Bureau that would
render substantial service to all solvent home
and foreign companies and to insurers.

The Chestnut Street Theatre,

THE Cbesnut Street Theatre never has been
popular since IL was first opened. and Messrs.
William Sim d Co. having abandoned it in
despair, after an heroic but unavailing attempt
to make 1T pay, 1t now stands desolate in Its
emptiness, a warning to managers. The Goes.
nut Street Theatre was built because there was
o want for such an establishment: this want
still exists, and there is room for yet another
theatre, provided IL is constructed on proper
principles and entrusted to a competent m ana
ger. 1t seems. therefore, opportune at the pre-
sent time To consider some of the reasons why
the Chestnut has failed.
Externally the building is handsome, and
decided ornament to our fashionable thorough.
fare Internally 1t is an abominaticn. some
months ago, in article on the proposed new
theatre on Broad street, the idea was expressed
in these columns that one Of the principal rea-
sons for the unpopularity OF the Chestnut was the
Encouragement ofthe auditorium ana the ugly,
uncomfortable cheerless, and barn-like char
acter OF the place. Last season Mr.. Sim had
undoubtedly the strongest stock company in
the city; but in spite OF this fact The audiences
became smaller and smaller, and even such
talented and popular actor as James f. Mur.
doch could scarcely draw full houses
1t has been limited that, the failure of
the theatre being q confessed fact, the question
OF remodeling 1t is being seriously considered.
1t Is to be hope that this Is true, and that the
work will be so thoroughly done that there Will
be no cause for complaint in the future. In the
way Of reforms needed, tho proscenium may
be mentioned as the first thing that ought TO be
attended to. The present affair is heavy and
inelegant, and 1t should be replaced by some.
thing more graceful. The inches adjoin-
! ing the boxes, with their plaster statues
so far nom being ornamental, are In ex-
cessive bad taste, and they should be removed
altogether, and the line OF the galleries brought
round TO meet the boxes. The galleries, too.
should be very different from the present ones
and In this respect the Arch Street Theatre
might, to u great extent. he taken as model

ANY person habitually costive cannot be in
tiveness will result in confirmed cases of
Rheumatism, Piles, Inflammation of the
Bowels, Diseases of the Kidneys, Bladder, and
surrounding organs. When costiveness is
radically cured, all the machinery of the sys-
tenn moves in harmony. Marshall's Elixir
permanently cures oostiveness, and so pre-
vents diseases more painful and dangerous.
Headache quickly yields to its curative
powers. Being entirely vegetable, 1t may be
safely taken by all persons at any time, with
perfect safety. Headache, besides being a
very painful complaint, is also weakening to
the nervous system, and may lead to palsy in
its various forms If not soon relieved. Mar
shalrs Elixir 80 strengthens the nerves that
they perform their duties without pain or un-
easiness.
By supplying the stomach with the medioi-
nal principle, the want of which causes Dys-
pepsla, this distressing and common disease Ia
quickly cured by its use. Il not only supplies
this to the stomach, but imparts strength and
vigor to the whole digestive apparatus. 40 that
