A combination efstrength thatoann0t be
resisted. viii have the effect to draw to st.
Charles Theatre this evening one Of the
largest audiences Of tho season. The occasion
Is intended to result in q benefit to the Varie-
ties company-the ladies and gentlemen
composing the same having been. made
severe sufferers by the burning Of the. Va
rieties Theatre. There is strength in the
nature of the call that is made to the SYM
pathics of our people in behalf OF those who
are suddenly overwhelmed by misfortune,
there is strength in the play that has been
selected for the occasion-"The School for
Scandal"-and there is strength in the cast.
The gentlemen and ladies who will appear
upon this occasion, and take part in the per-
Torrance Of one Of the greatest comedies Of
the age, are selected from the Varieties and
st. Charles companies, and in addition to
this array of talent that eminent artist, Mr..
Lawrence Barrett, has kindly volunteered
his services, and will play the char
acter of Sir Charles Surface. As Mr. Baker,
the late manager Of the Varieties, is
also a member Of the company, he will
play an important part in the comedy; and
as he is an artist of superior merits, will
help to make the cast of characters in
'The School for Scandal" upon this occa-
sion, q most powerful one. Everything
taken into consideration We think we are
justified in reiterating that there is a com.
bination Of strength presented upon this oc-
casion that wiIlnot fail to draw large and
| fashionable audience to the st. Charles
Theatre this evening.

The short Line Railroad frem Cairo to st.
Louis.
We learn by dispatch from Colonel W.
H. johnson, Of Chicago, to Major b. +.
Longley, of this city, that the airline rail
road from Cairo to st. Louis, will be form
ally opened to-day. Passenger trains will go
through without change Of ears, making the
run from point to point in six hours. The
present schedule provides for two trains
from each city. ...--
This arrangement will dispense with the
necessity of going up to Odin, one hundred
and twelve miles from Cairo, on the Illinois
Central Railroad, and making connection
with the Mississippi and Ohio road.
The opening Of this new, short and light
ming route from Cairo to St. Louis, by the
Illinois Central Railroad, is but another
evidence of that public spirit and enterprise
which has always actuated the management
of this famous company, and we feel sure it
will be duly appreciated by the travelling
public at large.
Those of our readers who propose voyag-
ing Westward should not fail to make note
of the above.

RECORDER DuMoNT's CsURr.-IVh Dis
tr;et.-Amid a.multitude Of "drunks' the
only case worthy Of notice was that Of Gus
Bradley, charged with assaulting Lucy Ann
johnson, with intent to.commit rape. The
person so charged. is a young man about
twenty-five years old, and though not of the
largest build, is several sizes larger tran the
intended victim, who is a slight young. girl,
scarcely beyond childhood. The circum-
stances of the case are unfit for publication,
but the ruffian was foiled, as the girl raised
a cry that ga woman was coming" This
drew tue attention Of the scOundrel and
enabled the girl to escape. The accused
made strong effort to have the matter
compromised, but this the Recorder would
not permit, so the prisoner was committed
for tfial before the Criminal Court, and
lodged in the Parish Prison where he now
IL, and will remain until disposed of by
course Of law.

Canal street, without being struck by their
excellence and the skill he has displayed in
placing his subjects. Being evidently a
master of that difficult art OF forming
groups or posting persons SO that they may
be seen to the best advantage, his portraits
always appear as if grace and ease were
the characteristics of the originals. There
is no stiffness or constrainti in their attitude,
but all appear as natural as if alone in their
private apartments. Mr.. Anderson Is a
master in all the different branches of the

honors many times when be competed
