GUY MANNERING.- who have read
Guy Mannering" and seen its dramatization
know that the play conveys but faint idea of
the novel, and that the similarity of names is
more an offence than a pleasure. Still the
melodrama is pleasing and quite as satisfactory
as the majority of acting plays. In the hands
of an accomplished tragedenne its "Meg Mer-
rifles becomes one of the most impressive
characterizations of the modern drama. In
other hands she is only bag, horrible to lcok
upon and disagreeabe to hear
The play was well brought out at Fanny
Marsh's Theatre last night, and some of its
scenes, noticeably that of the gypsy encamp-
ment, were handsomely set. The interpreta-
tion was quite as good as one had reason to ex-
pect Especially deserving of praise was the
'Dandie Dinmont'' of Mr.. Gossin,-a care
fully studied and effective mpersonation. The
rough, generous, hard-headed and soft-hearted
Scotchman, quick to give and take offence, and
as speedy in gene rosty as in anger, was broad
ly and freely drawn. The other characters re-
qure but little mention. Mr. Theadore was
conventional Dominic Sampson" noticeable
only for his awkwa, dness ard for his preten-
which he called the ''Shaldake.' Miss Will
liams was vivacous Julia ManneriDg," but
hardly caught the spirit of the part. Miss
Hardy was an agreeable surprise as "Meg
Merrilles," for she might have been worse
The play will be repeated until further no.

DISTRICT SOCIETY OF PoRTLAND.-The last
monthly meeting of this society was very inter-
esting. The trustees present were Messrs. Lewis
Pierce, w. f. Milliken, 81. N. Jose, Thomas
E. Twitchell, with President j. Marshall
Brown in the chair.
The Secretary's report showing that % ne W
applications for life insurance had been receiv-
ed since the last meeting, was read and ap-
proved. By this report it appears that much
larger business was done by the Society than
during the previous month.
The President called attention to the fact
that he had recently visited the home office of
the New York Life, and was received as trus
tee of this local organization by the officers Of
the company, with marked respect and consid-
Grafton.
General Brown also expressed himself high
ly gratifed with the affairs at the home office,
in fact he thought the New York Office was
managed with consummate ability and integ-
rity.
The Presidents remarks were corroborated
by Mr.. Pierce. Mr.. Pierce also stated that he
was at the parent Office at the last election of
officers and cast his vote IN person. He also
represented the District Society of Portland by
81 votes of the policy-holders of the company.

THE Texas CoLoNY.-The Advertiser sent a
letter to the Governor of Texas inquiring about
Mr.. Stanton, who is forming the Texas colony
here, and received the following reply from the
Governors Private Secretary:
His Excelleocy Governor Hubbard, instructs
me to say that no one has authority from the
state to settle on the public lands, unless the
same are purchased, or located by virtue of
land certificates. This office has no official
knowledge of Mr.. Stanton.
The following from recent issue of the New
York Tribune may be of interest to those who
think of going to Texas:
The advice go West; has been followed too
well, according to an alarmed newspaper at
Dallas, Texas, and the cry is now raised,
"Young man go back" The trouble seems to
be that there has been fush of Northern
tramps to Texas; and the unusual picture of
men begging their bread in the streets of Dallas
has presented itself to the dlating eye of the
Texan journalist. The trouble is probably not
probably so alarming IS it seems, but it may be
as we'll for those who think of rushing off to
Texas without forethought, to understand that
the Dallas Intelligence says, go back"

Good Advice.

Now is the time of year for Pneumonia, Lung
Fever, &c. Every family should have bottle of
BoscHEE's GERMAN SYRUP. Don't allow for one
moment that cough to take hold of your child, your
family or yourself. Consumption, Asthma, Pnue-
monia, Group, Hemorrhages, and other fatal diseases
may set in. Although it is true GERMAN SYRUP is
curing thousands Of these dreaded Diseases yet it is
much better to have it at hand when three doses
will cure you. One Bottle will last your whole
family winter and keep you safe from danger.
If you are consumptive do not rest until you have
tried this remedy. Sample Bottle 10 cents. Regular
size rs cents. Sold by your Druggist.

We understand that T. Broadhurst of
Springfield, Mass, after a thorough examina-
ton of carpet beaters in Philadelphia, New
York ard Boston, with a view of establishing
one in that city, gave to Fosters invention the
preference over all others, by paying him a
liberal sum for the privilege of taking rough
plan of his machine. We think it worth
while for all parties interested in having their
carpets busted and purified to give Foster
call at his dye house on Preble street, and
examine it in operation.
