The handsome parlors of Mrs. VIVA. l..
Bumgardner were filed Tuesday night, to
witness an exhibition Of private theatre
Gals, which had been in rehearsal for some
time. The performance Of 'Wooing I'M
der difficulties was admirable, the cast
including Miss B. VT, Miss l.. Nc
&c, and Miss N. rs, with Messrs.
S. T. P--s, w. Al, q NJ. We,
and W. McG--n. The character o.
Miss rs was arrayed in q costume of
q century ago, and the acting was mimi
table. The costuming of the piece was
made more effective by two gentlemen
wearing the uniforms of officers Of the
Artillery and the West Augusta Guard
The second play was "Matrimony," in
which Miss S. In, Miss S. VT.
Miss K. P--s, Miss P--d, and Messrs.
L. B-r, A. S. Ny, and W. B. Nc
C-y, appeared. The former dramatic
successes of several Of the performers in
this piece renders it unnecessary to say
thai it went off well. Between the pieces
Miss L. D--s sung a very sweet little
ballad called, "Who knows.''

What Gould He Do ?

Last Sunday number of Staunton law
yers were lin Highland attending court
and one, of most upright walk and pious
face, but who has never been a member in
good standing Of any evangelical organiza-
ton, went to visit q Sunday school. Dur
ing the exercises the minister erring as to
his religious status said he hoped the
s'good brother would now address, q
few words of encouragement to the chill
dren. The good, but astounded brother
got to his feet and proceeded to address
them. It was a very touching scene when
the good brother said he hoped tAey.would
all meet at the river, and felt about in his
coat pockets for any Of his address that
might have been accidentally left there.
When they all got out an astonished mem
Der of the bar enquired how he came to dc
it, 'sWhy,' said the good brother with an
injured looked IT couldn't help it. The
man asked me and what the ID could l
do?''

An Unlucky Wedding Suit Economical De-
cision Of the Governor.

''It fits real nice,' said the betrothed of
Mr.. James IL. McNulty, living i'll the
western part of the city, on the evening of
November LIST, as that gentlemen appeared
i'll her parlor, clothed ina nice black broad
cloth suit, from tiageman's, with d white
vest from Cohn's, which he Informed her
was the suit lie was to be married IL. She
did not know that that morning the trunk
Of Mr.. G. q. Leitcher had been found i'll
the back yard OF his boarding house, near
the railroad arch Oh Asylum street, split
open with an axe. and the contents, III
GLIDING this suit, gone. Besides this suit,
two more and an extra vest, the whole
valued at $50. had been lifted out, not to
mention underwear. Men ulty Was board
Ell at the house, and is the same gentleman,
who, some nights before, had come out
OF the shadow Of the fence >at
a late hour, with drawn pistol,
and threatened Conductor Patterson,
of the G. & o. road who had just
left the adjoining residence of Mrs. Church
man. A few days ago, Chief Of Police
Peck got wind of the suit and went to the
house of the lady who said McNulty had
left it there for safe keeping, and gave it
up. 1t was fully identified by the owner,
Hageman, and julius Switzer, a clerk at
COINS. The young lady said McNulty
last wrote her fl ON Grafton, W. Va, but
she expected him on in few days. HELL
come on" said the Chief sin pair OF hand
cuffs.'' But the Chief was mistaken.
Last week he telegraphed the Sheriff at
Grafton, between which town and Wheel
ing, the accused was running as fireman
on the B. & o. r. r. and a few hours at
ter received telegram from Wheeling an
nouncing that his man had been arrested
there and put in jail.
Saturday night Capt. Peck went to Rich
mond for a requisition. Not being able to
see the Governor Sunday he hunted up
Secretary of State Mcdonald and told him
his urgent business and the danger of his
man getting out a habeas corpus and fit
<-ting before the requisition could arrive
there. ''The Governor has scruples about
transacting business on the Sabbath - said
the courteous Secretary, "but l reckon he
will do this under the circumstances, so
he got him an audience with Governor
Kemper. His Excellency demurred some
what to the papers not being in proper form
but at last said, "Ill give you requisi>
ton if it is understood the bringing of the
prisoner is to be done without cost to the
state.n The Chief declined to take the
requisition on these terms, and there the
matter dropped. So Mr.. McNulty " i'll be
able to get out of Jail at Wheeling, and
come to Staunton if it suits him, and prove
his innocence Of the charges against him.
