A NOVEL ,FEATURE.--With blarc Of trum-
pets theAryus announces that it "inaugurates'
new feature in regard to the business inter-
ests of Portland, said feature being the insel-
ton of column Of business cards. The novel
ty Of this Feature" is not apparent. From
the somewhat hazy English which follows, the
reader gets the impression that the argus in.
tends to write up the business interests of tho
city. AS the PRESS has been doing this same
thing in quiet way for some time, we are dis
posed to question the novelty of this ''feature /"
We trust our contemporary will meet with
good success 10 cleaning after our full sheayes

DEATH OF n. G. HIchBoRN.-Hon. n. G.
Hichborn died of typhoid fever at his home In
Stockton, Monday morning, after an illness of
several weeks. He was thought to be improy-
ing until few days since, when the disease
took an unfavorable turn.
Mr.. Hicbborn is probably best known in
connection with the temperance movement of
1869 when he was nominated for the Governor
ship. He was state treasurer from 1866 to
1869, and represented his town for several
terms in the Legislature. He has been largely
interested in shipbulding, and has been prom
inently connected with the scheme of building
q railroad from Rockland TO Frankfort and
Bucksport. He was distinguished and earn
est advocate of thu cause of temperance, and
was known throughout the state as an honora.

THE MUsEUM.-Those who witnessed the
rendition Of London Assurance at the Museum
last evening must have been very agreeably
surprised Much was expected Of the excel
lent troupe now engaged at that place of amuse-
ment, but the audience scarcely looked for so
good a representation, for the play is really a
trying one.
Miss Jsadora Cameron did admirably as Lady
Gay Spanker. We had not thought the role one
adapted to her ability, great as it is, but she
has more versatility than we gave her credit
for. She was sufficiently arch and vivacious,
and her Interpretation of the character of the
dashing young wife was natural and life-like
Miss Victoria Cameron was pleasing Grace
Harkaway, and play ed her part after a fashion
which proved satisfactory to her audience
Mr.. Bartlett was Of course excellent. He
always is He is an actor of singular eveness,
and has yet to present to the Portland public a
role in WHICH he makes failure. His. rendi-
ton of Dazzle was characterized by that ease,
quiet force, eminent naturalness, and freedom
from exaggeration or affectation which char.
acterizes all his efforts.
Mr.. Calder, as Mark NEEDLE, did cxcellently
well and hugely delighted the saudience. His
merits in these comedy roles, TO which ne is
adapted, are SO striking as to at once attract
attention. Last nights impersonation added
another to his already considerable list of tri-
umphs since his engagement began at the Mu-
scum.

FUN AT THE MUSEUM.
seven sheriGs in Possession.

Matters came to crisis at the Museum yes
terday afternoon. Mr.. Fluent, the owner of
the building, served notice of ejectment on
Messrs. Shaw and Ellis, because of failure to
pay rent. The scene shutters were busily en-
gagged in shifting scenery yesterday afternoon,
preparatory to putting "London Assurance"
on the boards, when there entered unto them
sevel sberiffs (there were but five, but for the
sake of ALTERATION we say seven,) who forbade
the further moving of the pasteboard gardens
and drawing rooms. In very scriptual man
ner the seven took hold of one man, The stage
carpenter, and in loud and very emphatic Ian
guage, assured him that they should be COM
PEELED to erect large, handsome, but rather
gloomy mansard over his left eyebrow if he at
tempted to roll wheel upon its truck.
These enforcers of the law were very Jealous
indeed, and one Of them went so far as to at
tach the gas (there being nothing else to at
tach.) At the suggestion of an employe an
other proceeded to attach the memory of the
actors. Some of these sherifs represented Mr..
Fluent, some the actors who were clamoring
for back salary, and some other creditors
The stage carpenter was decidedly obstinate
aud insisted upon putting down the carpet for
the drawing-room scene in London Assur-
ance.'' Thercupon the seven sheriffs drew to
themselves seven chairs, and placing these
chairs upon the carpet sat thereon. defying the
stage carpenter and all his power
Some sort of an arrangement was finally en-
tered into, and the scene-shifters were allowed
to proceed with their work. AS soon as Messrs
Shaw & Ellis were ousted new lease was
effected With Mr.. J. E. jerks as manager,
Messrs. Shaw & Son going in as his agents.
The present company will probably be retained
We trust SO, for Portland amusement seekers
could i'll spare Miss Cameron, Mr.. Bartlett and
the others. The change seems to have been the
result of concerted effort to drive Mr.. Ellis
from the management.

Boston SWEDISH SINGERs.-The Boston Ads

A concert was given in Mechanic Hall, Sa-

tute lecture course. The Boston Swedish
singers, led by Herr A. Nordstrom. appeared
to great advantage in several Swedish choruses,
which were sung with life and vigor. Mr..
Nordstrom sang in an applauded style, "NecB-
ems Polska," the Swedish National melody and
Mr.. F. Schmeiser sang Campana's "Dal pro-
fundo'' with cultured finish Mrs. H. E. II.
Caster won good opinions from the very large
audience present by her rendering of Donizet-

agreed to lease the two buildings if made into a
hotel. Work will begin early in the spring
and the two buildings will be renovated
