ADJUSTMENTS,

MISS NELSON IN TWELFTH NIGHT.
brilliant assembly gathered at Havessy's The.

sources that few modern companies, and parttcu.

th1s reasou and becauie few ladies can bo found
competent to embody tho character OF 17old, the
play has been, a. II BY common consent, consigned
to the c!oset. 1t has,, however, bccn properly
drawn forth from lts retirement By Miss Nelson,
whose very satisfactory acting Of tho part of Tola

that may be lone to the other paris OF
the play by Inferior actors In the cast With her.
Nor, siagu1arly enough, docs 1t appear that the
violence done In this instance was 20 great "a In
the case Of - Romeo and Juliet" There was less
bad acting In tho strange play than In the familiar
one. II the UHks and the Friar might hare been
thrown out, It could have been said TINT the act
Ing. an whole, was at least sufficient 10 convey
an adequate conception Of tho poets intention;
and much lcsa grudglng pralse might be bestowed
upon home Of tho actors.
Miss Nelson's nbflty to deal In faclle and
graceful way With Shakspcsrean comedy cannot be
disputed by any ono WHO has seen her Rosallad,

Fifth Congres sioual District

A telegraphic dispatch from Delta an
nounces the selection of J. Edwards Leon.
ard, Esq., as the candidate for Congress in
the congressional convention which met at
that point yesterday. Judge Leonard is a
young man of great ability, and is vouche
for as sound and thoroughgoing Repub-
lican. He is native of the State of Penn
sylvania, graduate of Harvard and of the
famous University Of Heidelberg. He ha g
been district attorney and district judge
in the upper river parishes, and in his spare
time has devoted himself to study and su-
thorship. A late work of his, the "Loui 81
ana Federal Digest" has taken high rank
as text book and book of reference.
During the late attempt of the Democratic
House of Representatives to impeach G ov-
ernor Kellogg, Judge Leonard was re-
tanned as counsel for the executive. The
True Rep ublican, Of Carroll parish, speaks
Of the nominee as "a candidate burdened
with no personal obligations, hampered by
no combinations, tainted with no cOrrup-
tions; an able and upright candidate, who
can and will bear our banner proudly on to
victory in November next-a man of cour-
age, fidelity, ability and integrity"

Arrival Of Senator Twitchell.

Senator Twitohell, now an almost help
less man, arrived here yesterday on a
steamboat, accompanied by several friends,
who assisted him in his tribulations. Be-
fore the boat landed it was known that the
unfortunate gentleman was on board, but
the steamer did not land until reaching the
slaughterhouee, and on her return, about
three o'clock last evening, the Senator
went to No. li2 Cenal street, where he
will remain some time. Two of his friends
will remain with him for the present. MI.
Twitchell is now in q tolerably good physi-
cal condition, but last evening was I'M
willing, being somewhat weary, to talk
about his awful experience. As soon as he
is able he will likely furnish history of
his terrible experience. One thing is
certain-he is MANNED for all time, and his
afl;ction was brought on him by no wrong
act ON his part.

have made q demand to bs represented On the

regarded by the acting president; and,
Whereas In order to secure a fair and impartial
election the fOilowig resolution was introduced
by 8 member of thi, club, which, after long
debate, was tabled, viz:
Whereas At all primary elections, held in this

tain points, voters are in the habit OF casting from
eight te ten votes each; therefore. bs IL
Resolved, That none but the commissioners SHALL
have the power to cast the ballot II the box or,
Whereas. it is the eense of this club that in

A FIRM PRoTEsT.-The City Council yes
terday received protest from the Central
Club of the Workingmen's Association
against the proposed reduction of laborers'
wages. The City Administrator h ad under
consideration q proposal to reduce the la
borers' wages twenty-five per cent on what
was already too poor compensation, and
that fact having been made public. the
above society demurred, in the hope that it
would have some effect. The same conmu-
nication suggested that the Administrators,
if they really desired to adopt an eoononl-
zeal measure, reduce their own salaries,
which proves that the aforesaid sss0ci Ation
must be oblivious to the fact that the city
fathers claim to have already performed
that act voluntarily. One point made IN
the protest is that concerning the office OF
city assessor, which position is virtually
abolished, no longer q portion of the city's
business, State law having placed that
branch in the hands of the State assessors.
A single clerk, it is commended, may attend
to ali the duties of that department at q
cost of not more than $500 per annum.
The communication, presented by a COM
mittee of three, was read and received, and
it will probably rest in q dusty pigeo on hole
for all time to come.
