1t is many years, some fifteen or more,
we believe, since Shakespeare's play of
Julius Cesar" has been presented before
q New Orleans audience.
At Niblo's Garden, New York, Mr.. Bar
rett played in "Julius Caesar" four even
ings to the largest houses ever seen within
the walls Of that threatre. aud the
press OF that city bestowed judicious praise
on his performances. The New York L<1aer
said:
Mr.. Lawrence Barrett as CGssius, shot up
q head and shoulders esthetically taller
than he appeared in the unsupported targidi-
ties of the week before. If we may use the
agricultural idiOm which Mr.. Greeley is in
Producing SO successfully into polite litera-
ture, we may say he seemed to be manfred
by the occasion into new development, and
put forth leaves which looked wonderfully
like laurel before. the play was over. This
is saying great deal for a young actor who
has been thus early subjected to all the dis
advantages Of the star system. He, how
ever. luckily possesses the acting instinct, a
quick, vigorous mind, virile body, attuned
with asplendid voice, and passionate ma
ture, which needs the curb rather than the
spur. These are things not to be sighted
in this day of Chesterfield tragedians.
Cassius was. therefore, a manly success; a
bold, somewhat hard, but an even perform
ance; and in the quarrel scene with Bt.utus,
the vehemence, the fiery temper and i'm
FASHIONED manner, not only bespoke his
forte, but won him plaudits that rung all
round the house. There seems little room
for rcpose in his strenuous, impatient man
ner; but in its stead he has the elan Of a
Frenchman or Celt; and never did it ap-
pear in more vivid light than by the side OF
this impcrturbable Brutus.
Julius Cesar" will be produced this
evening at the st. Charles, on the occasion
of the benefit of Mr.. Lawrence Barrett
when he will take the role of Cassiws, sup.
ported by Mr.. j. w. Albaugh as Mark An
tony, and Mrs. Albaugh as Portic.

The Elton Euqle appropriately says:

1t is q matter Of universal and noteworthy
remark that the election on Monday last
was one of the most quiet and orderly cleo
tons that ever took place in the parish
The freedmen came in early. voted rapidly
and returned home Immediately to pick
cotton, and on many places but little time
was lost. All business houses III town were
closed, and no other business was attended
to hut that of voting. Our merchants de
serve the thanks of the community for the
course they pursued in closing their estab
lishments, thus sacrificing their interests to
the preservation of order. We have not
heard of single Instance in this parish IN
which there was any disturbance or dis.
order and we chronicle tho fact with a great
deal Of pride and satisfaction.

ANDERsoS's PnoToGRAPHs.-To visit New
Orleans and not go to Anderson's photo
graphic gallery would be like a man going
Rome and not going over the Coliseum; to
Egypt and not ascending to the SUBMITS OF
the Pyramids; for Andcrson's gallery is one
of the features Of the Southwest-alike its
boast and its pride. The photographs which
Mr.. Anderson takes bear criticism, even in
comparison with those Of the artists of Lon,

regulated to suit the recuniary condition OF
our people.

Nor AN INoUEsr.-Coroner P. Creagh's
first day, they say, did not pay, as he was
sent away, by a jolly wag, to hold an in
guest on dead body lying in Delta street.
The official visited Delta street, and indus
tTiously sought for subject on which to
set a jury. He was too late, for scavenser
an hour before had removed the corpse OF a
COW. The Coroner was too wise to mention
the little trick, but such jokes will leak out,
when several bottles Of champagne we're
destroyed. A perfumed cork was the ex-
tent of our share.

enter into matrimony is indeed o brave
man. That being true then a hearty-looking
Englishman, who was before Recorder
Stacs yesterday for having two wives, ia
doubly brave. His 6rst wife can show six
responsibilities, principally boys and girls,
now residing in country parish. He took
the second rib last June a year ago, and the
silken knot was tied in Christ Church. Tn
doubtedly there is a hole in thu law through
which he will crawl, provided the accusation
made good. Perhaps he is a Mormon in
disguise

When Bertrand Stadium handed Hugh
Ford q bunch of fives, the latter believed a
pair of case-hardened brass-knuckles had
struck him. Entertaining that belief, Hugh
could afford to make such charge, but he
was surprised when he ascertained that
Rertrand's bare fists were the only weapons
that kicked him. The ARRAY attracted
s;ght-seers on Camp street, and they in
,,ulged in good laugh over the scrimmage.
The batterer was arrested and released.

Augustin Meyer is fond of toddy, so very
fond that he cannot refrain from strong
drink so long az he has a circulating dime
in his old pocket. Having obtained twenty
five dollare he decently resolved to lay that
SUM in lavender for future use !; that resolve
was made while his head was level. He de-
posted the money with bis sister-in-law, a
discreet body, who rejoiced at this evidence
Of her relatives effort to reform. The ther-
mometer indicated frigid degree, when
Meyers appetite cried out for Stimulating
punches. Wasting all his pocket money on
.anglefoot, he called on his depositary for
the twenty-five dollars, when she wisely re-
fused to surrender any portion of it, not
liking to see so much currency iquidated
in bar-roOms.
The tipple.} rushed of TO Recorder
Hougkron and Indignantly affirmed that his
eister-in-law was not only an embezzler, but
preacher of sacred trust. Having com
pleted his davy he treated all hands on tick,
expecting that the court wonld instanteI
recover his cash. But when the court ascer
tanned that the wOman's motives were excel
lent, the drunken complainant received an
intimation that he had better unite his legs
and waltz of, while the accused was dis
charged She has good opinion Of equity;
he thinks law humbug.

Coon CIGARs.-Those who like to smoke

sell them just as reasonably as at their other
stands

ALMOST CONPLAGRATIoH.-Just before
noon yesterday, some wcrkmen in the rear
of Dumonteirs confectionery, accidentally
ignited a can Of coal oil or other combusti-
BILE liquid, when a great volume Of fame
filed the room. An employe was instantly
enveloped in flames but he had presence Of
mind sufficient to roll himself in the gutter
until a wet blanket was thrown around
him. Blankets were found useful in smoth-
ering the fire, more successfully than water
could have done.

Twenty-Five regular destroyers OF ardent

Recorder did, as we hear that his stomach
to-day il rebellious, having been well
stuffed with goose pie and accompanying
atc2fHraE.

4 LITTLE ANIMArIsN.-Between nine and
ten o'clock last night several persons in the
St. Charles Theatre were too noisy for good
manners, for which they were spoken to by
an officer on duty inside. This did not COM
port with their ideas of gentility, and the
loud talking was continued, when one, Dr.
Holt, of Baton Rouge, was taken out for the
purpose of sending him to the calaboose.
When near the corner Of st. Charles and
POydras streets Holt made an effort to
escape from the officer, getting off ii few
yards. Jus: then shot was fired, which
proved sufficient to attract q large number
of people. No one was hurt, but the pris-
oner was soon after captured, locked up
and finally released on bond. Accused is

here for trial, and it is faid those who ac-
companied him belonged to the crowd.

RErLECTIoNs.-Littl Willie Stein has the
stain of criminal poverty recorded against
him, termed juvenile vagrancy, therefore
has no single right which prosperous people
are bound to respect. A citizen who knows
exactly where he will find his next meal of
victuals, arrested Willie, calling him {. very
bad boy, which is doubtless correct; any
lad whose next dinner is uncertain, must be
bad, therefore push him to the wall, for
poverty, if not crime, is an approxima-
ton. The youngster finds employment, a
bed and rations in the Boys House Of
Refuge.
