DAMON AND PYrHIAs To-NIGHr.-To.
night we are to have the great play OF
Damon and Pythias presented, at
Washington Hall. We consider this
one of the most e1quisitely-conceived
written and arranged dramas on the
stage. The language is classical. the
situations thrilling and the whole plot
we'll carried out. In this day of wishy-
wsshy sensationallsm, when the stage
is used more to astonish than to hold
the mirror up to Nature" it is q grand
relief to be able again to witness q re-
presentation Of the legitimate drama,
rather than the Legitimate. Mr.. Han.
chefs Damon we have heard spoken
Of as an elegant piece Of acting. The
members of the Order of the Knights
of Pythias, under whose auspices the
play has been produced, will, we sup
pose, be out in great force, as will every
one else who wishes to be delighted as
we'll as instructed. Seats may be Sc
cured this morning at Sheib's music

NoHs Amour I'm 6fASsMe.-We
have obtsined the following additional
particulars in relation TO the stabbing
Of Thomas McKierney, yesterday
morning: 1t appears that AcKiernsy
was with . party of friends making .
night Of it." They were al more or
less under thr influence Of liquor. Az
they stood on Market street, near
Crsngle's bank. Joseph Werner, the
coal man, and his brother, who had
been attending the concert given at Tur'
usr Hall BY the Bsvarisn band, psssed
by, when McKierney stopped them and
demanded q stogie cigar. He seemed
70 get very exasperated because Of their
refusal to give him . stcgie, and, O. the
Messrs. Werner had passed on, ran after
them and began an assault on them,
swearing that he could whip any
dutch -. in the city" Mr..
Werner stood it until he was sssailed
with bricks and his brother was hit in
the face with . bottle. He then turned
and stabbed McKierney. Word was
taken to City Sergeant Consnt, who,
with bis usual skill and promptness,
discovered Who did the stsbbing and
arrested the Werners and secured the
Witnesses. The accused were at once
taken before Justice johnson, who
heard the evidence, and finding that
the Messrs. Werner he'd acted strictly
in self-defense, discharged them.
We heard yesterday that McKier-
ney's condition was very critical. He
was 20 delirious and low that it was
impossible to move him from Dr..
Bagulay's Office to bis home until after
daylight.
