The Gazette Comique.

This unique and fascinating combine
ton of first-class talent of that line, after
delighting Memphis audiences proceeded
to the interior village of New Orleans.
No wonder our Crescent friends down
the river are delighted. We hope the
troupe will find time to give " a call on
their return. The Picayune Of the goth
says:
We have had the Gazette Comique com
bination. 1t is brilliant, versatile and
engaging, and by far the most enjoyable
entertainment of the comical and bur-
lesque order we have had here in years.
1t would be impossible, however, in the
limits of single notice to give our i'm
pressons of the entire performance.
Only the prominent features of it do we
purpose discussing. "The Fellow that
Looks Like Me" introduced to the audi
ence MISS Minnie jackson, young lady
OF evident dramatic ability, who speaks
distinctly, pronounces well, and is GER
tainly most excellent reader. We like
her, and so did the audience. There is a
naive, hearty good will and meaning in
the character she personates, which none
but an artist can give it.
Jennie Engle's bouquet of melodies
revived many pleasant memories in the
minds of her old admirers, and won for
her an applause and repeated encores,
which evinced thorough enthu siasm.
There is no danger of her surrendering
the distinction of the Academy favor
lite.
But by far the most artistic and genu-
inc piece of acting was that of Miss Ella
Wesner. Her character delneations are
simply superb. Coming before the aud
fence without the advantage Of any sort
of favoritesm, she instantly won their
sympathies, and quilted the stage de-
cided favorite. Bold, dashing, and orig
inal, she is sure to meet with that en-
thusiasm which real merit never fails to
awaken.
1t may be that the apparent difficulties
encountered by Messrs. Bray and Gard
ner in their wardrobe initiated against
any favorable impressions they might
otherwise have made. Certainly their
appearance did not justify extravagant
eulogy. We trust, however, to be able
to notice them more favorably.
Altogether, the entertainment last
night, as we said before, was beyond
anything of the kind we have seen, and
the pleasure of it was not little en-
HANGED by the wonderful trapeze per
formances of the trio, male and female,
who made up the dancing exhibition.
Mr.. Gibbons is certainly most wonder
full gymnast. Billy Carter was received
with a cordially that reminded him of
the old Variety days, no doubt; and re-
sponded to the enthusiasm with familiar
melodies that won him additional ap-
plause.

This morning at 8 o'clock, according

OF our deceased office companion and

those on foot halted, and the balance OF
the procession moved on to Calvary Gem

The Memphis Typographical Union
turned out in full force thus attesting

departed brother, who had throughout his
life proved himself the unhinching friend
of their organization, as well as the
champion of the working classes gen.

Italian Meeting.

A large meeting of our Italian fellow
citizens met last night at the Assembly
Hall, to take some action in regard to
the startling events now progressing in
their native land. Col. Gus. Signaigo,
the chairman, stated that the object Of
the meeting was the celebration Of one
Of the grandest events in history, the oc-
cupation of the Imperial city of Rome
by Italian troops. Mr.. A. vaccarlo
was secretary; Messrs. p. Cicalla, A.
vaccaro, and A. Buchiginani were APP
pointed a committee on resolutions.
Mr.. A. L. Chic, of Chicago, Grand
Secretary of the Grand Italian Union
Society Of America, made an address in
Italian. At the conclusion of the gent
leman's eloquent speech, the committee
returned the following resolutions,
which we're unanimously adopted
Whereas, The Italians Of Memphis,
feeling that interest in their native coun-
try which all true patriots should feel,
and as the late events before and in the
city of Rome have made Italy one and
united nation; therefore be it
Resolved, That our hearts beating in
unison with the noble hearted Romans
who received the national troops into the
Eternal City with enthusiastic cheers for
United Italy and for Victor Emmanuel,
have deserved our commentator and
gratitude. Therefore, be it further
Resolved, That we hereby tender to
them our brotherly love, and welcome
them into our National Union as we
would those whome we hold nearest and
dearest TO our hearts.
Resolved, That the following dispatch
be transmitted to the King. as an ex-
preston of our feelings to our united
country: 1.-THE Italians of Memphis, in
mass meeting, congratulate your Majesty
on liberating Rome and Italian unity,
amidst cheers for the King, Italy and the
Eternal City"
After the resolutions had been adopt

stonewau Jackson Concert.

The concert given in the Memphis
Theater last evening, for the benefit of
the Stonewall Jackson Monument Asso-
citation of Virginia, was the complete
triumph for several days anticipated
The house was even full below, but only
a few seats were taken above. The au-
dience was strictly fashionable, and by
far the most dressy and brilliant assem-
blage of the season. The preponderance
of ladies was noticeable, and the variety
of styles indicated that the fall fashions
have not yet been fully determined, at
least in this community. The dress
circle and half the parquette was occu-
pied by the ladies and their escorts, and
it must be admitted that the stylish young
gentlemen, in the majority, looked at
the dress-circle more than at the artists on
the stage. And this brings us to speak of
the performance Three of the gentle
men on the programme, Messrs. Gideon,
Gage and Papendiek, were absent, which
necesstated some changes. The only
lady who participated was Mrs. Heating,
who was in fine voice and was encored
every time she appeared during the eve
ming. Without her assistance the con-
cert could not have been the artistic
success it was. The Ruined Chapel
was sung in good time and tone by ten
members Of the Mendelssohn Qnartette
Club with excellent effect. The duet,
1.-THE Hope that Lies Nearest" by Mr..
Sabatzky, caused a hearty encore.
Mrs. Heating and Mr.. Hollenberg
violin solo was executed with a mas
ter hand, and fairly brought down
the critical portion of the house at last.
Mrs. Keating's song, She is Pooling
Thee" was given with such sweetness OF
voice, ease of manner and archness Of
gesture that when she retired the entire
audience demanded an encore. She re-
turned and sang Stonewall Jackson. ="
II the audience was enthusiastic before,
it now became electrified, and at the
conclusion solid burst of applause went
up, as from a single heart, and like re-
Turning echoes was prolonged for several
minutes. The piano performance OF
Herr Louis H. Meyer was delicate, clear
and accurate, from the gentle touches,
soft as falling dew, to the bold passages
which initiate nature in her sublime cat
aracts and clouds and storms or mountain
avalanches. Without mentioning each
artist, it is sufficient to say that the large
and esiticql house was highly enter
tanned, and that the conosrt wash every
respect an enjoyable success.

A New AND HEALTHFUL ARTICLE OF
FooD.-The Sea Moss Farine, manufac-
tured from Irish Moss, by the Rand Sea
Moss Farine Co., has been placed on our
table at different times, and proves to be
one of the best, most nutritious and
easily-digested of all the farinas now in
use. 1t is palatable to the taste, is lighter
and less compact than any other farlna,
and hence better adapted to weak stom-
achs, to dyspeptics, to invalids, and all
persons of frsil constitutions. in cases
where tapioca, sage, barley, corn starch,
maizena, and similar articles are beneh-
cial, the Sea Moss Farine is not only a
substitute, but has advantages which
neither of them possess, because the
main ingredient of the moss has been
considered by medical men for many
years as having invaluable remedial
properties. 1t is particularly recon-
mended for pectoral affections, scrofu-
lous complaints, diarrhea, etc.-Editor

creasing; rates are, however, about the

change is scarce at par buying and /

is quoted steady by our noon dispatches.
