MADAME RENTZ's FEMALE MINsTREIs
/ "A good audience greeted the appear
lance Of Madame Rentz's Female Min
strels at the Grand Opera House, last
night, and were highly pleased at the
performance given. The programme in
claded "a good overture, a spicy olio of
specialties,and burlesque, 'sThe Female
Forty Thieves" which, however, was
sadly cut and deprived of all point. The
| female performers Of course appeared in
tights, and garments of questionable
length style of apparel in regard to the
propriety and decency of which people
widely differ. A few ladies left the hall
when the tight robed performers made
their appearance, but in the main those
present were highly pleased at all they
heard and saw, and expressed their ap-
probation by uprOarious applause.
Owing TO the fact that the troupe was
billed for Richmond Va, tonight, and
had to leave on the 10 O'Clock express,
the performance was cut short, and end
ed at 9.20 o'clock. ~ 81 .' '' A''-.
While the subject matter of the pro-

was regarded as indecent and indiscreet.

of the entire performance, and would not

WASHINGTON, Oct. 21.-There arc two Messrs
Baxter from Tennessee, who want the vacant
Circuit Judgeship for the States of Michigan
Ohio Kentucky, and Tennessee. One halls
from Knoxville and has the solid support OF
the East Tennessee Republicans. The other lives in
Nashville and ispressed by Senators Bagey liar
ris and by the whole force Of the Middle and West
Tennessee Democracy. The Nashville BaxteTs friends
accused the Knoxville Baxter of being unfit for the
Bench OH account of quick temper and quarrel
some disposition They say that he once fought a
duel in North Carolina and that he is not friendly
terms with the Bar OF his State The friends Of the
Knoxville Baxter protest against the appointment
of the other candidate because he is Democrat, and
there are plenty of good Republican lawyers in the
State 1t is not unlikely that the President will
drop both of them, and look outside of Tennessee
for his Judge. e offered the place first to- Senator
Christlancy, it Will be remembered. and when that
gentleman declined he passed over Ohio and Ken
lucky having sufficient representation already in
the Federal Judiciary, and intmated his preference
for a Tennesseean.
