PIocHE THEATRE..-Last night full
house greeted the management on the
occasion of the FIRST appearance of MIR.
John Mcguire. Owing TO the fact that
all the arrangements for proper pres
entation OF The Bells had not BEEN
completed, it was deemed advisable to
defer this play until this evening, when
II VIII be presented in such manner as
TO give full effect to all its parts. Instead
OF The Bells" the comedy of The
slamese Twins was given, and well
received by the audience. Mr.. Mcguire
also recited ''Shamus O'Brien" with
good effect. Lorraine made many good
hits in his Dutch connections, and the
company generally did well. The
Bells, in three acts, will constitute the
/ principal attraction this evening. @
HANDSOME CHRISTMAS PRESENT. -
Messrs. Kennard. Clark & Co. called at
at our Office last evening and presented
to the corps typographical good supply
OF champagne, liquor and cigars. The
champagne was of Cooks manufacture,
! st. Louis, Mo-, very superior article,
which took the premium at the Paris
Exposition over all other American wines.
The whisky was the very best Kentucky
article, SIX years old, and was unexcep-
tlonable. The cigars We're frst-class
,Havanas, and are equal to any to be
found in the United States. All hands
in the RECORD Office return thanks to the
donors for their courtesy and attention,
and hope they mayenjoy prosperity in
their business.
ARRESTED. = Yesterday afternoon
fellow by the name of McAvoy. who
only recently got out of Jail. signalized
his advent into the free air Of heaven
again by imbibing immense quantities
of fluids which sadly interfered with his
powers Of locomotion. This was moth
ing strange, and if he had stopped there
he would have faired better; but he made
an indescent exposure of his person, and
he was at once pounced upon by officer
Boyd and escorted to Jail. 1t is not I'M
likely that he may spend his Christmas
within the walls of the county prison.
