VIRGINIA OpERA-HousE.--MacEVoy's Hi
bernicon is novel entertainment, and drew
O large house last night. The panorama
gives faithful representation Of the princi-
pal cities, the unrivalled lakes, mountain
scenery, river views, with gorgeous sun
and moonlight effects of the Emerald
Isle. While interesting to all lovers OF
the beautiful and historic, it must ueces.
sarily prove specially attractive to every
Irishman... The Emerald Isle with its beautiful
green vales, calm waters Of mysterious le-
gend and tradition, towering mountains OF
tenderest associations alike recall much that
is most dear in the treasured recolections OF
the land. 1t is truly the best Ht6ernicon we
have ever seen. The paintings, numbering
over fifty, appear faithful and natural. The
music, lecture, and other features are enter
tanning and instructive. Mr.. Burns as
" Barney the Guide" proves himself rare
Irish comedian and excellent vocalist. Miss
Mary MacCray, Miss Kate Reilly, and Miss
Kate Byrnes, in their respective roles, afford
amusement for every one. And Mr. Ames
as "Fritz" and cold Black Joe" Is sue
cess.

across the river In skif, and then to ST.
Johns College, where they spent the night,
and yesterday morning were taken into the
country in charge OF band OF cavalry,
where it is probable they will be KEEP. in the
woods r. ~
On the heels of this event, at O'Clock res
terday morning, State Auditor Wheeler was
awakened by knocking at the door Of his re.
sidence, and upon going out some men, who
had been stationed With guns around the
house, rushed up and put him by force into
carriage, in which was General Canany.
He wss driven down 10 the Anthony House
and taken to Bakers room, and there pre-
sented to Baxter by Csnany, who ststed that
though acting without orders he thought is
his duty to capture Wheeler and make .him
acknowledge Baxter as Governor. BE fur.
ther offered to do the same With State Trea-
surer Page and Governor Brooks. but Bax-
ter at once gave orders to release Wheeler,
much to Canany's discontinue.
There is some talk OF Baxter moving bis
government to Arkadelphis, and making
that his capital.
a son of Judge Bennett received letter
last evening from his father say ing :. [ sup
pose you krow that Judge scarle and I were
captured at Argenta last night. Wexre well
treated, aud in no bodily danger. don't
know when we will be released"
Baxter has again practically seized the tell

one hundred yards away, and they allow no

when st. Johns College was searched this
morning by squad Of regulars acting a.

addressed to Baxter, was found on the table,
Awhere it bad been left In the haste incident
to departure, which effectually refutes the
| statement. Writs of hateas corpus have
been issued for the missing judges and Bax-
| ter, and Baxter, Newton, Churchill, B!ocher,
and Williams are reported to have left town
to avoid the service of the writs.
