day last, and favored our office with a
call yesterday.
Father Martiniere succeeds Father

establishment of branch of the Ursu-
line Convent in this city, which was

which are the fruit of functions con-
scientiously performed, and to Bishop
Dubueis, the planner, and Father
Chaland, the executor of this most in
valuable work, the most distinguished
commentator Is due.

Departure of the Grecnwarl Troupe.

We have itemized elsewhere the
return of Manager Greenwall Oh the
first night of his company's appearance
in this city, and we are now called
upon to chronicle the departure of the
company itself. We announce it with
no small degree of modification.
Manager Greenwall should have been
supported in this city well. Barring
the first night, and that was not such a
house as these talented artists should
have had, the curtain was raised OH the
second night only that the actors
might confront virtually an empty
auditorium. We admit that we are
somewhat in the dark as to the cause
of this, and we shall not attempt any
speculation, but trust that this shall
not deter this truly splendid company
from visiting us hereafter, when we
have no doubt our citizens will not
only make amends for the past but
give an unequivocal security for the
future.
