rrpsR's OrERA Housx.-Thers was a
large attendance at the Opera House last
night. ON the occasion Of the benefit OF
Mr.. Murphy. Tho performance opened
with the pleasing comedy entitled "The
Fortune Hunter" Mr.. Murphy, as
O'Cailaghan. was very acceptable. Ths
character itself afforded him great scope
and latitude for his osculaiory powers.
Being continually mistaken for other
people he kept up the deception. dsriv.
ing all the benefit he could to himself
from the false posiiion in which he
was placed. Mr.. Billings, a. Divers.
made q capital hit. As m ''old man"
he has few equals. Mr.. Edmonds &C
Quilted himself finely in the character
Of Charles. Miss Cummins contributed
greatly TO the amusement OF the audi-
spc, in the character Of Julia. The
piece was we'll enacted throughout and
gave general satisfaction. The per-
Torrance concluded with the amusing
farce entitled ''More Blunders than
One, which was placed upon the stage
in good style. Mr.. Murphy as Larry
was immensely comicsl and was re-
wardsd with frequent and %uproarious
applause. The matinee this afternoon
was well attended and the performance
itself was a grand success. ''Handy
Andy" will be repeated this evening and
will be followed BY the "Heathen Chi

Mr.. EpIToR:-"Fair play is Jew

careful reading Of the communication
OF Justice, i'll yours ofthe oath inst,
and his structures upon what he is
pleased TO term, 1.-THE Kane Richmond
movement in the Interest of the
Cumberland Gap extension. The late
action of the delegates from Scott, and
Lee, Justice" thinks, will result in
irreparahle damage to the people of
those Counties and OF Bristol. From
our standpoint, we could see Justice"
in no other light, than that of an inter
eSted party, whose effort, was designed
to throw the friends of the &. G. Il, r.
of of the "true scent" And the bet
ter to accomplish this purpose, he
would make the impression abroad
through the State, that the action of
the delegates from Scott and Lce, had
been brought In the interest of q sim
gle prominent gentleman, of the coun-
ty of Scott, by calling it the Kane

pie of the State had no feeling, bu, of
indignation, towards "Messrs. Gibson

recognized 10y inference) as the real
authors of the minority reports"
presented by Ivan Aukeu." Justice
at the same time roundly berates the
Van Auken minority report" as "a
dastartily, and oowardly effort to de-
stroy the credit of the a. M. & o. r.
Z Co." We have nothing to say for,
or against Mr.. Van Auken, or his
minority report, +" Justice" evident
ly would have the public believe, that
'his head is level upon this point, in
particular, and il is clear to our
mind, that ne means to associate the
Delegates from Scott, and Lee, and
not only with Van Auken, and his
''cowardly effort TO bring the Company
and it officers into disrepute," but lie
really makes them the attaches of

Visit of Their Sons to Philadel.

PHILADELPHIA. March 21.-Two
sons Of the Sismese Twins have ar
rived in this city to claim the bodies
of their fathers and will return home
with the remains this evening. They
deny he report that the family intend
to make speculation Of the remains
by exhibition. They evince much
fIial feeling on this point, aid it is
to be hoped that the correction of
the report may be as wide as the
publication of the false statement
has been. So deeply do they feel in
the matter that they enquired anx
iousIy f the embalming process could
not be undone and the bodies allowed
peacefully to decay, and on being
assured the process could not be
reversed, and that decomposition
must now be very slow process.
they express evident regret. they
2 SO spoke strongly about the report
tlat the commission went South with
a large sum Of money, and that the
transfer was the result Of a business
bargain with the widows of the twins
They said this report was generally
credited in their section, and that all
the family could say could not
disabase the minds OF friends aad
neighborS on the subject. They
desired Drs. Pancoast and Allen to
give them formal written denial of
this rumor, to be shown to the people.
and, if necessary, to be published
which request, of course, the COM
at once complied with.
