The Performance Of the Association Dra-
mattIWc EOuIsiamaise.

notwithstanding the detestable wealth
er prevailing last evening. the Opera
House was filled with the good people OF
the Second and Third Districts to wit
ness the performance Of LES Pauvres
de Paris by this association. The
liberal answer Of the public to the ap-
peal of the Little Sisters of the Poor for
assistance cannot be too highly com
mcnded.
The play. which was interpreted by
Mesdames Cadie. Repetto Broux. and
Messrs. Placide Canongc. ,Jr.. Cressy.
Lazare, De Stephens in the principal
characters. deserves more encomums
than we can condense in a passing no
tice. We may. however. specially men
tion the impersonation of the character
Of Planterose by Mr.. Cressy. without
prejudice to the other amateurs. Mr..
Cressy evidences Improvement every
time he plays. and his Pldnterose las
night won him repeated rounds of ap-
plause, every one Of which were de-
served.
The use that our French amateur
clubs are making Of their talents, de
voting them, as they do. entirely to
charitable purposes, is worthy of emua-
ton

THE ST. MARY. This fine steamer left

she landed at the warehouse Of Messrs.
Jackson 81 Fitzpatrick. at the head Of
Second street. to take on board 500 sacks
salt After taking it on board she at
tempted to back out. and in doing SO
her wheel caught in line leading from
a ship lying Just below, which. becom
ing entangled in the shaft. caused her
to break both OF her cam yOkes, and
otherwise derange her machinery, ron
dering it for the time being useless.
Drifting down the river, she collided, at
the head of st. Mary street, with the
ship China. which vessel was Just being
landed by the towboat Norman. by
which she sustained slight damage to
her starboard guard and chimney. She
was landed by the Norman, and Mr. ID.

WHAT ALLIED THE BUTTER p Jonea
seemed doomed to have trouble with
his boarding house The other day he
went down to breakfast in a fine hui.
NOR, and thought he would have some
fun with his landlady. While all the
other boaders were plastering their hos
cakes with butter, Jones called out from
his end of the table to the solemn man
next to the landladys end of the board:
s.Nr. Rhodes be so kind as to request
that butter to amble in this direction
Several parties smiled, and the land
lady cast threatening look at Jones,
but he acted as though he didn't see il.
and soon remarked:
of I furnished the help around here
I'd hire real, genuine, live Comanchs
Indians
"Mr. Jones T. exclaimed the landlady,
vehemently, "what Go you mean by such
outrageous conduct ?" d.
"Beg pardon, ma'am, but you don't
comprehend. The Indians would ls
right handy to scalp the hair off the
butter before breakfast"
Five men lodged in a hurry as the
pewter sugar bowl went ~hlzzing at
Jones head, while that individual slid
under the table.

THOSE woKEN, FE1Low-LABoRERs

The apostle found at Philippi ear
nest and jealous workers for tho cause
Of Christ, whose faith and labors be
specially commended. It is noticea-
BILE that in every place and III every age
the women of Christ's elect have gen.
orally deserved. similar commentators
Some men, not knowing wnat,they say,
speak of the sisterhood in the church az
the weaker portion, and of their COM
parative importance contemp!uously.
Such estimates and remarks usually
proceed from unhappy men and half
grown boys who are unfortunate at
home, or have no one to make home
for them. And these instances of un-
happiness are most frequently traceable
to those who claim eminent superiori-
ty. ="
What would church be, what
would it be worth, anyway, that was
made up of men and boys. What
thoughts and ideas would be suggested
by the term ''brother churchesf' How
long could any church live and pros.
per that should not be made up largely
of Christian women? Mary aud Martha
and Phebe, Lydia, Priscilla, salome
and Syntyche, notwithstanding their
varieties of temperament and views,
and occasional differences OF feeling
but in these particulars no oftener
blamable than men, arc just as impor-
tant to the membership and just as
valuable and efficient ''laborers together
with God" as James and Apoios and
Silas and Timothy, and others of mas
culine names

HOUSEHOLD NorEs "A farmers wife
has the'same right 10 be neat and FASH
ionable and refined that woman of
the city has. Because she lives on a
farm, and feeds the pigs and chicken
is no reason that she should make q
drudge of herself and not care for pei

piece of furniture get the latest style,
for yop can get it just as cheap, aud IL
will last just as long as the style ef
twenty years ago. And when yau get
a dress, although it be nothing but
calico, eut il fashionably, but don't
trim it, for it don't pay to trim cheap
dress. Don't slip on = dirty wrapper
