The THEATRE FRANK MAYo.-Mr. Frank
Mayo's many friends in this city are looking
forward very anxiously to his engagement
at the Theatre next week.
The drama of Divy Crockett is elegantly
constructed, is well written, and it invests
the life of the hardy backwoodsman with a
romance which is strong and beautiful. The
assumption of the character OF Davy Crockett
by Mr.. Mayo constitutes one of the few dra-
matte pictures of the stage, and once seen it
fingers most pleasantly in the memory. In
Mr.. Mayo we have before us true man, one
of natures noblemeD, and the contrast be-
tween him and the sickly representative of
high life is not overdrawn. The incidents
leading to the full development of bis love are
tenderly and artistically wrought out. They
ore quite as romantic as Claude Melnotte's
experiences, and are much more exciting.
Mr.. Mayo is q splendid actor. and he is
strongly supported by Miss Rosa Rand, who
will no doubt again fully sustain her reputa'
ton as an artistic in her rendition Of Eleanor
Vaughan.

ARREST OF NOTED PRISONER WHO
FLED FROM JU>TIcE--THR CASE AGAINST
HIa.-During the months Of December
and January, it will be remembered; num-
bcr-Of daring robberies were committed IN
this city. Among them were those perpe-
trated upon MesSrs. Longley of the House
of Delegates and Mr.. &. A. Pulling OF this
city, the former on the 18TH Of January and
the latter on the 9th Of the same month. So
numerous were the depredations by thieves
that the police force Was doubled in some
instances, and the men made unuSu Il efforts
to arrest the offenders.
On the 18th Of February negro named
Henry Wiley was carried before the Police
Court on the charge Of stealing or having in
his possession large number Of cigars stolen
from Wood & Co. He was sent on to the
grand jury, and subsequently writ OF
hobeds corpus was sued out and the accused
was bailed. When Wiley's case was called
| for trial he had lett for parts unknown. His
| wife heard that he had gone ever to Peters
| burg with 4 woman, and she Immediately
set out on foot and walked over TO
the Cockadc city, took out,,a warrant, and had
him arrested. The authorities in Petersburg
tclegraphed immediately to Richmond to
know whether Wiley was wanted. Captain
Disney then went over to Petersburg, and
Yesterday returned to Richmond with his
prisoner. Upon leaving Petersburg Wiley
| packed up the clothing he had in his posses
sion and brought it over with him.
Yesterday afternoon Sergeant Hall, of the
Second district, overhauled the clothes, and
thought he identified some Of the property
lost by Messrs. Longley and Pulling. Mr..
Lopgley was sent for, and as soon as he came
into the station-houSe identified shirt
which the negro had brought over as the
| one which he Lougley) had worn on the
day preceding the robbery at his rooms. 1t
| was lying in chair at the time with set OF
studs in it. He picked up the shirt in the
| station-house, and remarked that his wife
had scwed on the buttons, and that they
| were similar to those on the garment he then
wore. comparison settled that fact be.
yOnd all doubt.
MIR. Pulling was then sent for and he at
once recognized pair of his pants, which
were stolen from his room on the night OF
the 9th.
There are circumstances which also con-
meet Wiley with another robbery, and Ser
geant Hall was last night forging u link which
will probably be the means of the grand jury
finding four indictments against him instead
of the three robberies with which he now
seems to he clearly connected. 1t Is said that
Wiley has already served out one term in the
penitentiary.
