On Tuesday night last this club
gave another OF it's unique cntOrtaiuN
mentS. The hall used by the club IS one
of the apartments of the man school
building of the AthGnHEn, and has the
capacity to seat about one hundred per-
sons. This hall is elegant and private
as a family parlOr. Tickets of invita-
ton are issued to all expected, which in
sures a select audience and makes tho
entertainments as quiet and pleasant as
if enacted in a private parlOr. Their
last play was the "HOneymOOn." Ora,
mats personae, Duke AranZa, Or. X. p;
Count Montalbon, Capt. w. J. W.; Ro-
and CampellO, Dukes attendants, I. s.,
w. A, e. O. N; Balthazar, +. s.; Lopez,
peasant, Capt. w. J. W; Duchess. Mrs.
s.; ZamOra, Miss p; Nolante, Miss s.
We presume the plot OF the piece is ia
miliar to most of our readers. Tho rem
dition could only be fully enjoyed by
seeing it. Every character was well
sustained, and the whole was a complete
success. Some of the scenes were just
inimitable. The club has i'll it much
dramatic talent, and the way they ac~
quilted themselves would do credit to
the real stage. We have not space to
single out each of the performers, and
give them the notice that each 50 Justly
merits. We can therefore only refer to
n lSWs III IIlC GOllllC I'tIGfNJ IilC Sit'Ii' IL
which Jacques cOuuterieits the Duke,
was extremely amusing and enacted to
the life. But old Lopez, rs he wobbird
up to the table, refusing meats but go-
ing for tho liquor of his honest nrigh-
Dor, was Just ininitablc. This cannot
be surpassed on any roal stage.
The more serious parts wore enacted
with equal felicity. The deliberate
manner in which the Duke peraCvarod
to conquer, the proud shame of dis
appointed ambition evinCod in tho bat,
fled hopes of his Duchess, were Toudrr
cd with fine effect, and will bo long ro-
memhered by those who heard it. The
scene between ZamOra and kOland0
were finely executed, and the little page
was so artless and beautiful that She
charmed everybody. Old Balthazar too,
did his part to the life, and displayed
the warmest emotion and deep sOlici"
tude of the ford and dOting parent.
Little Nolante was unique and charms
ing as usual; her acting is fault!ess;
while the Count MOntalban to the life
executed the parts of courtier, friond
and father cOufessOr. The dresses Ottho
actors were suited to the play, ana the
scenic effect was very fine.

WILLIAMSPORT ITEMS,

est regards to the owners of the numer.
Gus CANNES Of this end of the 18th dis
trict. Many a dog and 5k;:t.cn gave up
their lives last week. The complaints
against the dog law are loud and deep,
but without just cause, for the COMPLAIN
ers are generally of limited means, and
have no sheep 10 lose, and if they would
more fully comprehend the meaning of
the law, they would wear cheaper wooden
goods. Our Legislature left out clause
that should have been inserted-that Ia,
to have empowered each Assessor with a
quart bottle Of strychnine and a large
piece of dried beet, to kill all the dogs
that are not owned or claimed.
Mr.. W. ?. R., the satirist and wit has
new suit of clothes-exaetly lit. How
evor, there is nothing new in that He
also wears new hat. May his future be
without trouble or woes, and so fortunate
ever to wear such good clothes,
A farmer was heard to say last week
that the stand Of cotton was bad in the
Turkey creek neighborhood.
A spelling match took place at the vii
lage school house several days since, that

That energetic county officer, Deputy
Sheriff Wtherspoon, was in this section
last week, seeking to devour something,
and captured one of the largest fish, of
the redhorse kind, known to Duck River,
which dangled very gracefully on the side
OF his horse as he cantered homeward.

architectural taste of our county, keeps His
gates tied at both ends with chains, He
says, however it is done for Jack Gordon S
benefit, when he goes fox hunting or to Mig
ger Island to grab red-hOTSe.
Somebody went fOX-huntlng last Friday
night on +. NJ. Naughn's place, and their
dogs killed three of his sheep, and mortal
~ wounded another. Mr.. Vaughn tells us
he has lost two hundred sheep in the same
way. If all men had such an experience,
they would not have much sentiment
for dogs.

of Maury county, is very fond of red-hOrSe,
and will give up trOut-tishing to catch them
on the Shoals. The sport is not only fine,
but ten pound red-hOrSe has no small
bones and he is delicate and juicy.
JEFF REEVES, Superintendent of the COun-
ty Work house, is working on the Shelby
willie road, preparing to pike 1t. r. NJ.
Vaughan has contracted with the county
for jeff. to make pike to his house, three
miles from town on the Rock Spring road,
at one thousand dollars per mile. Col.
Sowell will also give the same price for two
miles further on the same road, which Will

best thing the county ever did-the people
get 81 good road and a thousand dollars be-

lows the ShelbyVille road about two miles,

We do not intend to become Thomas

do think that Mt. Peasants card is as
unta r as it is in bad taste. 1t is not
brave nor in good taste to assail mans
person or character, whom he is by Cils
cumstancos, deprived of all means of
defending either. Tho murdorers of the
prisoners were probably guilty-havo
been denounced as towards and snoaks
the world over, by civilized peoplo-Do-
cause the prisoners were helpless and
defenSeless, On the same principle
every thinking man will condemn ant.

bad taste. The publication of tho card
will necessarily prejudice the Tublic
mind against Thomson. ant. Pleasant"
should learn that T. is accused, not con.
victed of murder; ald that a man chang

OpprObrium of the man who has been
