For the last month or more two men,
two women and little boy have csmped
in the open woods n short distance below
the ferry landing .. Birds point. The
abroad canopy Of heaven" is their only
shelter by day and BY night. Where
they obtain what they eat is q mystery
that puzzlos the heads of the people re-
riding in the vi,ini,y of their camp. They
are all strong, hearty looking people, and
why they should clay about" rs they do
10 hard to understand.

The "Pearl of Savoy" as played by the
Fanny Price combination at the Atheneum
asst night, was witnessed by . worry fair
audience. As this was the second rendi.
ion of this beautiful drama by the troupe
within the past two weeks, we can only re.
ssert what We have already said about it,
nd that is that it is one Of the most besu-
ifui dramas ever put on the stage, and
hat in it there is moral we'll worth see
ny, and having been seen should never be
orgottsn. Miss Prices rendition Of the
eading character, Marie, was truly fine,
md in the last scene her acting
brought tears to the eyes of many
If her auditors. Mr.. Meldrqm's Lons.s-
OF cannot be surpassed. Miss Hauchett ss
Chonchon was all that that character called
or; aud all the oihor members of the
troupe deserve credit for the manner in
whsch they acquitted themselves. The
play for this evening is the "Octoroon, or
Life in Louisiana" with Miss price as Zoe
This is an excellent play and SO far ss
our memory coca WAS never but once be-
fore put on the stage in this city, when it
drew an immense house. Cannot the
Atheneum be crowded this evening? Let
everybody that can be there
SOMETHING NEw.-l have improved
