versatility, aud each one is particularly
adapted to her part in the drama.
The emotional part of "Clara Will
loughby" was very prettily and grace
fully rendered by Miss Jennie, ana Miss
Minnie as "Inky Dick" and Miss Maud
as "Spotty," the newsboy, each exhibit
ed a fine comic talent. Their acting
throughout was entirely satisfactory and
highly pleasing to the audience, who at
tested their appreciation by loud and
frequent applause.
The support was in all respects excel
lent. The parts were all sustained with
great ability. We would especially in
stance that Of "Horatio Pryor" by w.
l.. Street, who gave a very life-life por-
traiture of the progressive sensation re-
porter;' and that of "Melchezedeck
Maggs," by Mr.. Stewart Rogers, was a
superior piece Of character acting; and
the "Clopratra" of Miss Kate Bellamy
was clever African delineation. "Min-
nie's Luck" will be repeated this even

WOODS THEAIER.--Tho Wallace Sis
ters made their first appearance last
evening to an elegant audience. The
play, "Minnie's Luck" was presented
in handsome style, and when we pro-
nounce il as one Of the very best that
John Brougham ever wrote, we mean
that it is scarcely equaled by any play
OF the like description on the American
stage.
1t possesses that refreshing quality,
viz: the absence Of all gaudy coioring
and exaggerated incidents and situa-
tions; while in it we find the ssUps and
Downs" of life in a great city, and the
bright and dark sides of human nature
truthtully and vigorously portray ed.

Gratis are dissatisfied with the nomina-
ton of Captain Ligowski tor City Treas

of the Convention, would win the elec-

wednesday night as the steamer George Leary
was proceeding on her trip to Baltimore from
Norfolk, and when directly opposite the DOW OF
the Moseley, which was lying at her wharf, she
was noticed to strike q small row boat, containing
the boat and killed the occupants. The Leary
was stopped as soon as possible, and boats were
sent in search Of the unfortunates, but after
searching several hours were unable to md them.
The proper authorities were notified. but up to the
time OF the Moseley's departure the bodies had
not been found. The cries Of the men previous TO
being struck were distinctly heard and they were
heartrending in the extreme.
Considerable sympathy was manifested BY the
at Fortress Monroe, and seating herself on the
RfterpRrt Of the upper deck, watched the Fortress
and an ofhcer Of artillery on the wharf until the
boat had taken her out Of sight Of the loved one.
She paced the saloon with bowed head and aching
heart, and frequently would turn and look in the
direction Of the Fortress with Wistful eyes DARK
ness coming on, she seated herself on the after
part of the deck and remained alone until taken
to bed by her mother. The young ladies talked
the matter over and came to the conclusion that
1t was q desperate case, and many Of them knew
how 1t was, as thew had been there before.
Among the many lady passengers there were
none who eXerted themselves more TO make the
trip pleasant than Misses Mollie Lindsay, an &C.

Kennsbec and Potomac Ice Company.

AGuuCUtC anu EOIOmdC ice company.
One Of the institutions Of the city is the Ken
nebec and Potomac lee Company, which, by way
Of giving their customers and citizens generally
an idea Of their facilities for doing business had
parade through the principal streets yesterday.
The display, although It omitted the usual dec
hand. and the long line of wagons gave Q fair
idea Of the amount Of Ice which they distribute
in q day IN the several sections Of the city. The
stock was first class, and the wagons, uniformly
painted yellow and lettered in black, showed that
cleanliness was one Of the cardinal principles of
the company.
The company's headquarters are on the Kenne-
bee river, In Maine, and there they have ample
arrangements for collecting and storing annually
reouremepts being that Il shall be perfectly clear
and not less than two feet in thickness.
This is shipped by schooner to this District, and
deposited IN the depot warehouses Of the com.
pany on Water street, Georgetown, and at the
foot of Eleventh street, In this city, whence Il is
daily delivered to the many customers. For the
convenience OF patrons offices have been estab-
lished at the corner OF Seventh and G and
Twelfth and E streets, in the city and there G. m
always be found obliGing clerks ready to take
orders, give information. or attend 70 any busi-
ness that may be required ofthem.
Another and probably the best Of the advan.
tages presented BY this company Is the faet that
they sell this superior ice at the rate OF ntty
rents per hundred and agree that 1t shall 6s sold
for that sum during the entire season, while last
year It was held at 81 so per hundred.
Messrs. q. W. and T. T. Barker are the agents
in this city, and they will cheerfuly furnish any
needed information to either retail or wholesale
purchasers.

What is 1t? What are its medicinal virtues?
are questions that have been repeatedly asked us.
Ponds Extract is the quintessence Of the Viz
ginica Hamamelis, or Witch Hazel more familiar
to our country friends as the Spotted Alder. 1t
grows luxuriantly along the brooks and rivuIets
and is indigenous to the fens and marshes of Yir.
ginia.
As q medicant, although not by auy means a
cathOlicen, IL is q panacea for numerous ills to
which the human d sh is heir. For pain of ali
kinds It is invaluable, and no family should be
without IL. For our part, we never take a Journey
our valise bottle OF the Extract. 1t has spe-
cihc action over all hemOrrhages whether from
the nose, the throat or lungs As we write the
subject recalls to our mind a case where we ap-
piled Ponds Extract with the most astonishing
success.
1t was in a Western fsrt, In the heart of the In
dian country. One ofthe officers Of our post our
second lieutenant, hearty, robust man, of full
habit, was suddenly taken with bleeding from

the virtue of the Extract. suggested It as a
deTnieT resort. 1t was pooh pOOhed; but as the
case was desperate one, l gave the patient ten
drops at once. The blood became less In quantity
Immediately; five minutes later ten DROPS more
were given, and ten minutes afteFWard the same
quantity was again administered, when the hem
QTThsse ceased entirely, Six years have elapsed
since then, and he Is now as robust as ever, He
has had no return of the hemorrhage. We can
safely recommend the Extract to the public,
in all pain. and to be q sure and certain specific
for every i'll for which fits proprieters claim It to
be curative. 1t has only to be introduced to be-
come household necessity.
