The Empersonation of ''Tilly Slowboy' by
Mr.. Frank Curtis in the drama of "Dot' is
one OF the most absurdly funny representations
ever given on the stage in this city. Last
season it attracted large audiences to the
Museum for many nights, and if one may
judge by the big house last evening it has lost
none of its well deserved popularity. 1t is
certainly as funny as ever, and that is praise
enough. The support was in the main good.
Miss Williams was charming "Dot, and
played her part as she always does play, with
spirit and sensibility. Mr.. Liston was a sur
prisingly good "John Perrybingle," presenting
the best Characterization he has given us since
his impersonation of the old sailor in "Black-
Eyed Susan" Mr.. Theadore was hardly
equal to the part of 'Caleb Plummer." Little
Mamie Curtis was the "Cricket." The play
will be repeated this evening
AS is too often the case at Fanny Marsh s
Theatre the number of programmes was con-
siderably smaller than the number of people,
and in consequence those unfamiliar with the
play had to guess at the cast.
On Friday evening Mr. Curtis takes benefit.
1t is to be hoped that he will have crowded
house, for his merits as a comedian and his
standing in his profession call for substantial
recognition. Tickets for the benefit can now
be secured at the box Office, and should be
secured at once.

PORTLAND GAS CoMPANY.-The annual
meeting of the Gas Company was held yester-
day. From the report of the President, Ed
ward 81. Daveis, it appears that the consump-
ton of gas for the year ending the Both ult., IS
"A, 163. 900 feet against 48,650,000 the previous
year, decrease of nearly ten per cent. The
quantity of coal carboaized is 4,3C7 tons,
against 1866 tons the previous year. The num-
Der Of meters in use is 1887, decrease Of ten.
The number of street lanterns is 430, and in
crease of seven. Two thousand one hundred
and fifty feet of street mains have been laid. A
new iron covering has been put on the roof of
the retort house, and forty-five new retorts,
purchased in 1875, have been set in the easterly
stack of benches The net price of gas was re-
duced on October LIST, 1876, to $275 per thou
sand, which with the reduced consumption,
caused a large falling off in our gross receipts
for the year. This vas partially offset by the
reduced price of coal and labor; and owing to
the excellent condition of our works the ex-
pense of renewals and repairs has been small.
Still less will be needed for these purposes the
coming year. So that although the price of
coal has advanced fifty cents ton, it is proba-
BILE that the company will be able to make the
usual dividends the coming year without in
creasing the price of gas.
The old Board of Directors were unanimously
reelected for the ensuing year, viz-Edward
81. Daveis, Thomas Cummings, Charles B.
Merrill, Ezra Carter, W. W. Thomas, Jr., and
Samuel Rolfe.
On the organization of the Board, James 7.
McCobb, Esq, was reelected Treasurer.

The following general orders have been
issued:
HEADQUARTERS
GRAND ARMY OF THE REPUBLIC,
Philadelphia, April 20, 1877.
General Order No. 8.
In accordance with the annual custom,
Wednesday, May 80. 1877, will be observed as
Memorial. Day, in commemOration of our dead
comrades
1t is fitting that we should turn aside from
accustomed pursuits to do honor to those who
have given the strongest testimony of patriotic
devotion; and general observance of the day,
through the active participation of the mem
bers of societies, the children of the various
schools, and the citizens generally, is earnestly
invited.
Every effort should be made to mark the
last resting place of each Soldier and Sailor,
and we should also remember with tenderness,
those who died away from home and kindred
and now rest in distant or unknown graves.
Each Post will be the judge of the manner
in which it may best perform this duty, bnt
concert of action should be had whe rever
practicable.
Wherever there are no Posts of the Grand
Army to lead in the good work, the Comman-
der-in Chief, in behalf of their surviving
Comrades, asks the citizens to take step to
decorate the graves of the gallant dead ard
secure proper observance of the day.
BY order of
JNo. f. HARTRANFT.
Commander-iu-Chief
ROBERT B. BEATH,
Adjutant General.
