Academy nf hInsic.

A larger audience even than on the pre-
ceding night was in attendance at the
Academy of Music last evening to witness
the second representation Of "On Hand, =
"a drama in which Mr.. John Thompson has
scope to exhibit versatility of talent that
he was not before known here to possess
In his various characters he adheres closely
to the life, except the idiom in the role Of
the Jew clothing dealer. There is no dis,
tinction between his pronunciation in this
character and that of the rolleking Dutch
man, given just previously. Johnny Ihomp-
son seems always to be on hand just in the
nick OF time to thwart the schemes OF the
principal villain in the play.
Mr. Roland Reed certainly deserves COM
mendation for his excellent personatlon Oh
the character of an English servant. dis
pronunciation is almost faultless. The en-
tire play is well rendered, and We advise
our readers to go and see it this evening.

The Grand Combination Fair.

This fair, long talked of and for which
great preparations have been made by a
large and influential committee, opens to-
night in Mechanics Institute. The prepa-
rations for this entertainment have been
made upon grand scale, and judging from
the busy scenes to be witnessed in the In
stitute yesterday, no doubt the spacious
hall will present brilliant appearance to-
night.
A large portrait of General Grant is to be
voted for, and is to be given to the ward
club receiving the greatest number of votes.
All ladies having charge of tables and the
gentlemen who have volunteered to aid
them are requested to meet at the Institute
this morning at nine o'clock

GRAND JURY REPoRT.-The following is
the retiring report of The grand jury on our
public institutions:
To the Hon. Edmund AbelI Judge Of the First Dis
trict Court parish of Orleans;
The grand Jury having terminated their
session beg leave to submit the following
report for your honors consideration:
We have visited in body eleven public
institutions and found them conducted in
the most commendable order so far as the
Jurisdiction of the superintendent ex-
tended, their clearly condition and disci-
pline and decorum prevailing being mat
ter brought particularly to our notice.
MANY of the charitable institutions, how
ever, are sadly in need of funds, made more
so, too, at this season by the demands which
will naturally arise as the severe weather
sets id, fuel being an article the absence
of the provision for which will cause much
suffering
We do not deem it necessary to partieu-
larize the asyIums so suffering but judging
from those which we have visited, we CON
slider their wants as a fair average of all
the charitable institutions in the city, and
would suggest that some steps be made to
alleviate their necessities. The inmates OF
the House OF Good Shepherd and St. Mary's
Orphan Boys Asylum are greatly in need
of water, and we would recommend an ex-
tension of the waterworks pipes to these
buildings, the cisterns being inadequate to
supply their wants,
The Parish Prison is kept in admirable
condition under the efficient charge Of
Captain johnson, there being 1863 inmates.
and all healthy, but repairs to roof and
building are greatly needed, as also blankets
Tor the prisoners. Inasmuch as that por-
ton OF the building formerly occupied by
the insane is now vacant, we recommend
That It be fitted up and added to the prison
department. the one-half now occupied
being insufficient to accommodate comfort
ably all OF the prisoners.
We earnestly recommend the removal of
the insane from the Marine Hospital to
more healthy locality, suggesting q build
ing near the river front as best suited for
unfortunate beings who are SO terribly
afflicted, and for whom every care and
comfort should be provided
= The building now occupied is net well
adapted for that purpose, aud being situated
in the middle of swamp, which breeds
malaria and pestilence, many of the inmates
are suffering from this cause. There are 1873
men and women now in the building. sew
eral Of whom are confined to the inffrmarv
department.
The Girod Asylum for BOYS would be-
much improved, and the sanitary condition
greatly enhanced, were the swamp sur
rounding the building, and also the ward,
subjected to a thorough system of drainage.
