As the French advance the inhabitants
hasten to join their ranks, and thus the
army increases rapidly in numbers.
The smaller towns now resist the enemy,
as in the case Of Tours, which, in conSe-

occupied by the Germans.
At Argent and Cog, the Prussians were

MtHts
This entertainment came OF al
the Courthouse in this place, last
Tuesday night. 1t was gotten III
within three Or four days, and
the public had only as many days
notice through posters. 1t was,
however, very largely attended, the
room, quite a large one, being
packed so full that many could not
see the sights. The performances
were a decided success. There were
several tableax, in good style and
taste. They were enc0red by the
assembly, a favor not usually &C
corded to such things. An anu
sing lovers quarrel, in verse, by
Mr.. Richard and Mrs. Laura S
Webb, was we'll executed. It was
repeated, in response to the con
tinued enc0yes f the audience. One
OF the most amusing features of the
occasion, was improyised by Mr..
John T. Healey--he had only the
day Of the entertainment to prepare
himself. He appeared upon the
stage, as a jolly Dutchman Of the
largest and latest kind, eomically
dressed, leading by a string, a very
large old Newfoundland dog, who
looked as grave as a judge. Mr..
Healey then entertained the audience
with the merits of his "pooty leetle
pootle tog," and took off different
characters, persons and things about
town, all in a kind Of versified Ger
man patois, which though perfectly
understood by all, sounded like pure
German to those not perfectly IA
miliar with the language. He was
called upon the stage a second time,
to repeat, but improyised some
thing more in the same style. No
description can do Mr.. Healey and
his" poorly leetle pootle tog" JUS
tice. A continual roar of side-split-
ting laughter, from the beginning to
the end of his performance, showed
how he was appreciated by the au-
dience. Judging from this speci-
men Of Mr.. Healey's acting, he is
certainly a born actor.
Nj. Richard, as usual, was the
presiding genius Of the occasion.
And he is a genius ; for it seems he
can do anything IN any line, that
he attempts. He is an excellent
dramatic actor, and cannot be ex-
in anything of a mechanical
nature and sleight of hand that he
turns his attention to. The exhi-
closed with the performance
Of Mr.. Richards celebrated puppets,
made by himself. They 7 some
ten or twelve in number, and repre-
sent man and several other animals,
in their various races, costumes,
characters and occupations. We
venture to say there is not another
person in the world that can work
puppets like Mr.. Richard. He made
hem walk, talk, sing, dance, hug,
Kiss, ride, sleep and take every po-
sition and perform every feat posi-
Die for a real person to do, and
many more besides. A description
# the performance Of the puppets,
S impossible-it was perfect and
ifelike. Several ladies and gentle
nen present, who had witnessed
,uppet shows in New Orleans and
said they had never seen
my equal to Mr.. Richards.
Mr.. Richard deserves the more
redit for his efforts and trouble in
the entertainment, IS it was
principally for the benefit of the
and the orphan.
The audience unanimously re-
Mr.. Richard to give another
Entertainment at an early day, which
e promised to do.
