Nashville Opera House.

This is the name given by Mr.. Grey the
lessee of the old Theatre, and as such we
introduce ii to the public. The doors of the
Nashville Opera House were thrown open
to the public last night and although not
crowded, the building was very comfortably
filled, a large part of the audience being
composed of ladies'. Previous to the rails
ing of the curtain, Mr.. Grey made his ap-
pearance before the footlights, and delivered
a very appropriate little speech or inaugural
which was happily received.
The old building which has been
so handsomely improved, presented a
brilliant appearance last night, re-
minding us of the first opening of the Abel
phi under the management of honest John
Greene. Aside from the attractive walls,
beautifully frescoed ceiling and the gilded
ornaments around the circle, there is a de-
gree of comfort in the nicely cushioned
seats which viii be appreciated by all visit
ors. The promenade has been covered with
heavy mating and that constant tramp
which is more or less INDUCED in at all thea.
tres, will not be hereafter SO obnoxious. In
short, the house has been thoroughly over
hauled, and the Improvements are in good
taste, and best of all have been paid for.
The programme for last night opened
with the fine old comedy of the "Serious
Family" with Geo. A. Bailey as Charles
Torrens; l., J. Martin as Aminadab Sleek;
Geo. S. Grey as Capt. Murphy
Mcclure; A.S J. Davidson as Frank
Vincent; Mr.. Adams as Danvers !;
Miss Bette Grey as Mrs. Or1nsby Delmaine,
Miss Florence Kent as Mrs. Charles Tor
renS, Maud Dawson as Lady Sotuly Cream
". and Miss Jose Martin as Emma TOrrens.
The play throughout passed Off well, and,
considering the fact that it was the first
night, the performance was decided sue
cess. The aiter-piece was the farce of the
Country Cousin, with Mr.. Martin as Cousin
Joe, and Mr.. +. l.. Kent in the character of
Sir William Evergreen, the latter gentleman
being a member of the stock company of
John Greene, in the olden time. There is
an attractive bill for tonight, and We hope
to see another large attendance.

MYSTERIOUS EXCAVATIONS.
Extraordinary Dirt Digging by Some
Unknown Agency.

For the past few years, in fact at inter-
walls ever since the close of the war, resi-
dents of the locality shortly distant from
the western terminus of the city,
have been much astonished, somewhat an
noyed, and iii some instances considerably
alarmed by the fact that big holes are fire.
quently found in the grounds adjacent to
their houses, made or dug there in the
night time by some mysterious or undis-
covered agency. These strange excava-
tons are in form and appearance something
like those made by gophers in sandy coun-
tries or the diggings of persons in search of
buried treaSurers, and the work is evidently
done in the night time. There are various
conjectures as to why and by whom these
excavations are made, but as yet no very
satisfactory explanation of the matter has
transpired. If there are any gophers in this
latitude, the fact of their existence is not
within the knowledge of the people, and it
is almost positively known that Capt. Kidd
was not in the habit of voyaging TO this
particular part of the country, or
ever made even single trip in this
direction for the purpose of hiding in the
earth the differing treasures that were his.
A more reasonable explanation Of this till
now seemingly mysterious affair may be
found in the fact that number of ignorant
and superstitiOuS persons are afflicted with
the impression that vast amounts of money
were during the war buried in that par
ticular locality in order to be saved from a
still worse fate. The diggers viii certainly
find out before much longer that this style
of money hunting don't pay and can't be
made to pay.
