AT THE CHESTNUT Charles Reade's drama OF Rachel
the Reaper; or Clouds aud Sunshine will be presented
this evening. This is beautiful play that is well
worthy of the attention of those who appreciate
what is refined and good in dramatic art. The char
acter Of "Rache" is of Miss Keenes specialties,
and she has been very successful with it
in other cities In calling attention to
this as one of the earliest OF Reade's dramatic
efforts Miss Keene audes to tine of his play
of Dora in Boston, apparently OblivOus of the fact
that it has been produced here. The New York and
Boston citics made the same mistake, and spoke of
Dora as if it was an entirely new piece. We believe
that Dora was first performed in Philadelphia at any
rate it was brought out season before last at the
Chestnut, with Mrs Bowers as the heroine, and
although on account OF the unpOpularity of the
theatre it did not prove as great an attraction it
should have done, it was warmly praised by all who
saw it.
The performance this evening will conclude with
new comedetta entitled The HGppy Pair.
At THE ARCH the drama of EOr6loSd will be pro-

Of which the Rattlesnake the first To go into
operation, and there was therefore general feeling
OF regret when the intelligence was received that
she had met with serious mishap. On Thursday
last, as the Rattlesnake was passing through Hell
Gate a tow Of two schooners and sloop which pre-
ceded her broke adrift and drifted down upon her.
In order TO avoid collision she was forced to make
broad sheer, and unluckily struck upon small
rock that stove hole in her starboard blge so that
TO avoid sinking it was found necessary TO run her
on shore The wreckers went to work as soon as
possible and covered the hole with quilting and
canvas, so that she could be pumped out, aud she
was taken to Brooklyn, where she is dischargng
her cargo. 1t is expected that the cargo will all be
out by this evening, and the damage is not very
great, she will probably be ready to reload and pro-
ceed 10 Portland, whittier she il bound, by Thursday
This is one OF those accidents to which any vessel
is liable Captain Mershon is much praised for his
good Judgment in placing the RaTtesnake upon
sunken mari about three miles from where she
struck, thus saving her from greater loss. The
vessel has proved herself all that expected of
her, reliable, strong and efficient. Her own pumps
were sufficient to keep her free and, with the rest
of the machinery sustained test in this case which
enectually proves their reliability.
