PORTLAND THEATRE.-The Dirigo Amateur
Dramatic Association last evening gave the
first of series of two theatrical entertain
ments at the theatre, for the benefit of Bos-
worth Post No. 2, G. A. r.
The audience was not as large as it ought to
have been. Such a worthy and patriotic Oh
ject as replenishing the treasury of the G.. A.
r. for the benefit of the disabled soldiers and
the widows and orphans of deceased boys in
blue''-our fallen martyrs-should receive the
most liberal support of our citizens. 1t cannot
be that the priceless blessings of restored
country, saved by the brave soldiers of the war
are not appreciated.
The first piece of the programme last even
ing was the new and beautiful drama, "Stand
by the Flag" or "The Spirit of '7G." Mr. A.
f. Sanborn was Israel Gordon" the Revolu-
tionary veteran; Mr.. Charles E. Jack as ''Har-
ry Gordon" the chip of the old block, and Mr..
J. Edgar as "Cupid," the negro servant, were
capital, and the others did well.
The second piece was the well-known moral
temperance drama, "Ten Nights in a Bar
Room, Mr.. A. F. Sanbern as Joe Morgan"
Mr.. Charles E. Jack as "Mr. Romaine," Mrs.
NJ. e. R, as "Mehitable Cartwright"
and Miss L. G., as "Mrs. Morgan" were
excellent. Mr.. J. Simpson as sample
Switchell,' and Miss Ella Goodridge as "May,"
the drankard's daughter, were especially COM
mendable. The others deserve credit. 1t was
q commendable performance, and we were
pleased to see such promptness and correctness
by all the company.
The music, by Chambers Band, was very
fine. tTo-night the serio-comc Irish drama
''Norah Crena," and the Indian drama 1.-THE
Wept of Wish-ton- WISH" are to be given. Let
there be large response to this most worthy
call upon our patriotism, presence and purses.

SUDDEN DEATH OF A MINISTER.
BIDDEFORD, May 2O.-We have to record the
sudden and wholly unexpected demise of Rev
Mr.. Hubbard, pastor of the Calvinist Baptist
Church of this place. He was at work in his
garden early this morning as usual with him
when feeling ill he returned to the house, re-
marking that he thought he had overworked
as he felt i'll and pressed for breath and that he
would lie down awhile, thinking he would soon
be better; bat growing worse his family sent
for physician and neighboring friends and a
clergyman, who arrived only in time to witness
his expiring moments. He has been troubled
for sons time past with a bronchial difficulty,
but no heart disease of which we are informed
He will be much lamented by his many friends
and particularly the members of the society
over which he presided. He was generally re-
spected by the citizens of Biddeford, both with
in and without his church.

cnange In the ministry. The DukeIof Saldan-
mana "a having great influence over the troops Sc
cured the support of large majority of the
garrison OF Lisbon. Yesterday morning he was
ready for action and moved against the Castle
OF st. George. The Duke then marched at the
mead OF large body of troops to the royal pal
ace; The Gov. of the palace had taken meaus
Vi deIence and the Duke found troops posted
ana artillery in position to oppose him. An
attack was ordered and some shots fired, but
tne soldiers on both sides evidently were not
disposed to tight against each other, and after
GMeesultory firing they broke and fraternized.--
ile palace was left unguarded and the SOL
diers, volunteers aud some peasants who ac-
c9mpanled them, entered, displaying the pop.
mar nag and shouting, Long live the King"
Long live the army and Saldanha, Down
with the ministry" Though greatly excited
themselves with marching through the the cor
riaors and grounds, singing national songs and
ntterlpg patriotic cries. The prime minister,
Duke DE Soule against whom the movement
was directed, seeing the day lost, rendered his
resignation, which was accepted by the King.
oaidanha was then admitted to the audience
ana requested by the King to form new cabi-
net which he consented to undertake.. Seven
men were killed and wounded during the day.
Inc Duke intended it to be a surprise and
relied wholly on the troops for its success
Great agitation prevails in the provinces,
where there is strong party in ia 7or of the de-
posed ministry.

SENATE.
WASHINGTON, May 2O-Mr. Anthony, in re-
ply to the memorial presented yesterday by
Mr.. Pomeroy, complaining of discrimination
in the laws of Rhode Island against naturally
ed citizens, said that there was nothing in the
constitution of that State contravenirg the con-
stitution of the United States. When the bill
on the subject of which the Senator had given
notice was introduced, there would be no diff
Guilty in maintaining the law-abiding character
of that State and the rights of the people of
Rhode Island to reglate their own affairs.
The House resolution for a final adjourn

fix the day for July 18th, 18th and 22d, were
seyerally voted down by yeas and nays.
Mr.. Corbett moved to fix July 9Th as the day.
Mr.. Drake called for the yeas and nays and
said he would idsist upon the roll being called
upon each motion, SO that the country might
see that the efforts of the Republican Senators
to do the public business were being defeated
by combination of Democrats with the Re-
publican minority.
Mr.. Cameron said he would not be dragooned
into a particular line of conduct by fear of vot-
ing with the Democrats The sentiment of the
Senate was two to one in favor of fixing the
day for July 4th, and it was time for the minor
ity to yield.
Mr.. Drake thought that the Senator impu-
tatiOn as to the sentiment of the Senate show
ed his education in arithmetic very defective.
A general discussion was continued till the
amendment bill came up, but it was postpon-
ed 81 to 81, and the adjournment resolution was
proceeded. with.
Mr.. COrbetts motion was lost and the amend
ment to fix the time of adjournment at Friday,
July 18th, was agreed to-25 to q.
The Senate then resumed the 18th amend
ment bill, and Mr.. Stewart said he would con-
sent to striking out the 9TH section, allowing
candidates deprived of Office by violation of the
rights of cOlOred voters to recover possession by
writ Of mandamus, and giving the United
States Courts jurisdiction in such cases.
The discussion continued until IL o'clock,
when Mr.. Thurman took the floor in opposition
to the bill, remarking that he proposed to speak
until sunrise.

sum as had been previously received for bounty

were passed.
The bill authorizing the payment of 800, 900
to the officers and crew of the ship Wyoming,
who participated in the action at Simonoski,
Japan, in July, 1868, was laid on the table.
The Speaker announced Messrs. Logan, Slo-
