THE CATHOLIC FAIR.-The Hibernian Hall
was well attended last night, and the interest
manifested in the fair, so far from tagging,
seemed to be rather on the increase. Every one
was in capital spirits. The rattle lists had but to
be presented by some charming maiden when a
name would be enrolled, and the fractional cur
rency heaved up from the vasty depths OF pocket
books very rarely plethoric. The performance Of
othello, at the miniature Academy Of Music, was
decided success, and fully equalled anything
ever put upon the Charleston boards. In word,
the fair, like wine, seems to improve with
age, and constant visitor will ind each night
something new to admire. To-day is general
holiday that should OF be neglected, and visit
to the fair Is about one Of the best modes OF
spending time and money.

somely paying Institution. learned that soon
the freight trains Of this road would run to the
wharves Of the bay, and receive and discharge
freight for vessels without any draying, which
will be great advantage to the road and the
public. With such an arrangement for dispatch,
this will doubtless become the cheap freight line
for Middle Georgia, Alabama, and portions OF
Tennessee and Mississippi"

The MArINEE.-There Is something so full
and hgh-soundlng in the title OF the "Field of the
Cloth OF Cold" that reason Is almost reTolted and
the Imagination stands discounted to consider
how the history of the meeting OF the two Kings
can be performed by the oates Troupe. One visit
was sufficient-all doubts are removed. and the
Charleston public know that kings, queens and
lords in waiting were well personatcd. Mrs.
Oates is charming in any part, and her natu.
raj vvacity and animation infused new life in
the play. In this she has able assistaats-ars.
Sheldon, Mrs. Hayden, and the other members OF
the troupe male and female, being perfect In all
their varied parts.
The sField OF the Cloth Of Gold" has had an
astonishing run or success wherever it has been
produced, and even Savannah rayed about 1t.
No better selection could have been made for o
matinee performance but when 1t is remem
bered that in addition to other attractions Prof.
O'Reardon and Mr.. Hernandez will both lend
their valued assistance, it will be seen that the
entertainment Is OF no ordinary character, and
seats should he Sc cured early IN the day.

The LATE Rev. DIR. BAKER.-The Darlington

eloquent preacher. His style Of oratory reminded
us OF Bishop England, who he was proud to say
was his model. Weremember hearing him many
years ago in old St. Finbar's In Charleston, and
were particularly impressed by the beauty Of his
language and his graphic powers Of description
In person, at the first glance, when preaching, he
was not unlike the bishop, though he lacked that
majesty OF appearance which so eminently dis
tlnguished Bishop England"

Mrs. OATES BENEFIr.-The announcement

dlence good in numbers and In character, the
best Of the burlesque season. The opening farce
was lively and spirited, and Mrs. Sheldon Susan

handsome is as handsome does and handsome
does as handsome is, Mrs. Sheldon may well be as
ptQuante in action as she is pretty in person. The
dancing Of Mrs. Sheldon and Mr.. Sheldon (Timo-

The performance OF the s'French Dancing Mas.
teri (Ar. Hernandez) was as pleasing as ever,
and the dancing OF Miss DeSoyer was especially
good.
Professor O'Reardon astonlshed and delighted
the audience by leaning, not his face, but.a mud

harmony to which the music of the spheres were
jews harp or penny whistle.
