MEMPHIS THEATER. The opening
Eight Of the Memphis Theater, so far as
strong dramatic attraction is concerned,
was last night, on which occasion Miss
Fanny Davenport, supported by a strong
company, presented the play entitled
Pique. The play is American in plot,
dialogue and sentiment, aud il Of a class
to which Divorce and other plays Of that
character belong. 1t might be called the
sensational domestic school. Pique is
not as attractive a play as Divorce, nor
is r as good in plot, dialogues, or situa-
tons. 1t is Of a lower grade, but it
develops one strong character, ma
bel Renfrew,' around whom the en-.
tire play revolves. In the hands of
Miss Davenport Mabel Renfrew" be.
comes a most attractive creation, Just as
does RIP Van Wrinkle" by Mr.. Jeffer-
son and "Dundresry" by Mr.. Sothern.
Whatever Miss Davenport touched be-
comes life.like aud dramatic, a r~ealiza.
ton set in motion by a gifted actress
and commanding interest and attention.
AS a society play Pique is full of incon.
gruities, but these are the faults Of the
playwright. Last night Miss Davenport
received an ovation, and was compelled
to appear before the curtain at the close
of each act to receive the plaudits Of the
pleased audience. 1t was a charming
creation throughout, worthy Of the repu.
tation of the great actress who graced
the boards. The costuming and scenery
we're most appropriate. The setting of
the first act was charming to the eye
and reflected the greatest credit upon
Manager Rickaby. The support render
ed by the company was very good, oc.
~casionally a little too overdone perhaps,
but yet attractive and pleasing. The
music by the orchestra was generally adj
mired, and there was a general wish that
Professor Handwerker would during the
week favor the public with a few selec-
tons from the opera OF the Bohemian
Girl. Pique will be repeated tonight
and tomorrow night.

Friday week next, the 3Oth inst, will
be St, Andrews Day, a day made
memorable by the natives of Scotland
the world over, and o day generally oh.
served as a festival by them, The Saint
vas admitted into the Masonic calender,
and his anniversary" adopted as q Ma,
sonic festival on the 30th Of November,
1857. St. Andrew was a GalliIeean fisher
man in Palestine. He was the FIRST per.
son whom Jesus Christ received as a
disciple, and he afterward became one Of
the apostles. AT Patr4l, q city OF Aehaia,
Greece, he was oruei6ed on the Both
of November, A. D. 60. The cross
used or this occasion was of the form
called "crux decussata," and commonly
known as st. Andrews croas. 1t was
made of two pieces Of timber crossing
each other in the center in the form Of
the letter X, Contrary to the usual eus.
tom he was fastened to the cross with
cords instead of nails, ,hat his death
might be the more lingering and tedious.
In this condition, says one authority,
The hung two whole days, teaching and
~instructing the people ia the best manner
his situation would admit Of, being
sometimes so weak and faint as scarce to
have the power of utterance. In the
mean time great i~nterest was made to
the pro-consul to spare his life; but the
apostle earnestly begged Of the AL,
mighty that he might now depart and
seal the truth Of bis religion with his
blood" His prayers were heard, and he
expired, as before stated, on tue last day
of November. His body is said to have

EDUCATIONAL ELEPHANT.
The School Board Determined to
Maintain the High schools at the
Expense Of Grammar Schools.

At a meeting Of the educational board,
held at Odd Fellows Hall last evening,
the high school wing Of the board defeat.
ed the efforts made to maintain the pub
lie schools for the children Of the poorer
classes of citizens, aud determined to
keep up the high schools, no matter
what the consequences may be. The
proceedings Of the board were as follows:
Major Rambaut presented the follow
ing:
Whereas, 1t appears frsm the report Of
the finance committee that the board is
without funds, and the prospect for OBJ.
tanning money mesger, from which it is
evident that the board must retrench its
expenses; and whereas, if either the high
school or the grammar school must be
discontinued, our first duty is to the
grammar schools; therefore be it
Resolved, That the high school be
suspended until the funds of the board
authorize it's re-establishment.
Mr.. Duffy said if one school is to be
abolished why not abolish all the schools?
Major Rhett said the resolution could
hardly be entertained.
Mr.. Butler Anderson spoke in behalf
Of the resolution, saying, among other
things, that he had always been in favor
Of abolishing the high school, aud pre-
dlcted two years ago that it would have
to be done. Mr.. Anderson made the
additional statement hat the high
school would break down the public
school system of Memphis.
Mr.. Goodwin, chairman of the finance
committee, opposed the resolution which
he characterized as absurd and out of
place. If necessary to abolish the high
school, it should be done before the SEES
sion began.
Major Rambaut said that heretofore be
had been opposed to the high school, and
nov he favored its suspension or aboli.
ton. The board had as we'll meet the
question now as hereafter. By abolish
ing the high school they could distribute
the teachers and utilize them in half a
dozen different grammar schools. II
either Of the schools had to be suspended
or abolished it we're better to abolish the
high school and give the Younger children
the benefit.
Major Rhetts motion to table was
adopted by a vote of nine to FIVE The
vote was as follows: Ayes-Messrs.
Keely, Duffy, Rhett, Goodwin, Trezsvant,
Edgington, Townsend, Carey and Reder.
Noes Messrs. Woodruff, Arlington,
Dent, Rambaut and Anderson.

TO do, and it cannot be said to be "a Gus.
tom more honored in the breach than
the observance" We fear, however, the
example will net become an epidemic in
Memphis and Shelby county.
