THEATRICAL.

The stir OF preparation for vigorous theatrical
cimpaign In this city is quite perceptibe In
and about our principal theatree. Bidwells
Academy is being overhaued by the mechanics,
plssterers and painters, ct il o'aae genus. The
old st. Charles is about to be foreclosed, and
plan Of extensive reparations and furnishing
arc under consideration by the old Gas Company,
which has been driven into the rather advertising
field OF ,heater management The truth 10, the
company is in the po ition OF the man who caught
the wolf by the ear. he is in danger whether he
holds on or let's go. IL the theatre is sold who
can give fair price for IT.
lit is kept by the com pany what severe and
expensive addition to the cares and responsible
ties of the management of that corporation will
1t give. How can they hope to do better with it
than old Ben, who has lost over ten thousand
dollars every year by running it, Still, it is worth
the trial, in view Of the public spirit OF the exper
iment, that the Gas Company should employ
mo OF its large resources in improv ng and rem
derng more attractive this always popular place
Of amusement. Their etfnt in that drectio
ought to be commended AMI encouraged.
Nor is tho Varieties being neglected. The
new manager is exhibiting quite dashing en-
terprise in bia preparation for tho approaching
campaign. he has secured A1meeH Opera
Company and that OF the great German prima
donna. with tho unpronounceable name, snd
will run them against L7dia Thomps on aud
the Oates troupe, who bsve been march 4lsd
under the command of General BdweIl. The
latter invincble Impressario has picked I'D
and landed in hi. boat ee 7eral other great at
fractions and combinations, which we are assured
by his faithful agent. now in charge Of the Acsd-
emy, Antonio Roig, Esq, will enable him to sweep
the field next winter.
Hard straits and spare diet have relieved the
great manager of all those podagral troubles
which hsvs hitherto afflicted and obstructed his
movements. He is iu New York, without a
twinge, and loses no tune in perfectins his plan
OF operations. His rival Of the Varieties is not
asleep, but lie striving to haul in the big fish
which jump ever the casks Of Bdwell seine, aud
others that prefer to swim in the deep water out
side OF the reach of seines or netp and will only
bite at expansive bats on golden hooks.
The st. Charles, under the plan OF the expect
ed new proprietors, will be content to skirmsh on
the psnks VI the other rival contet tants to catch
all wanderers and unengaged parties, stars and
combinations who prefer to hire a house and run
their own performances than to divide with man.
ayers and 1essees.
Each Of these aspirants for popular favor will
Have to depend for their success upon the social
fnanci.l and commercial condition of our citv
next winter. And who can tell what that will be?

WATER IN CONNECTION WITH
HYGIENE.

EdHor Democrat Following my article on
hygiene permit me to present to you some re-
marks on water:
Conditions viii III are very important to the
Increase and permanent residence OF popula-
tion IN cities are good food, good water and
pure air.
Sanitary laws have been passed to protect
New Orleans from exterior disease, to provide
for the inspection Of food, to supervise and
regulate the condition of markets, etc, but
little attention has been given to water. In
what manner the law required for obtaining
good food is administered we do not know.
The casual glance which we have at intervals
of time given to some Of the markets induces
the belief that decided improvement might be
made in their management. The subject we
introduce to your notice is the
CITY WATER
the supply of which is in great part taken
from the Mississippi river and furnished in
the shape in which it is forced up into the
reservoir. If it be essential to human health
that the solid portions of food should be pure,
it must be necessary to have the fluid consti-
tuent water also pure. The amount of water,
however, required to put our food in that con-
dition necessary for its reception into the
body and for its resolution afterward is but a
small quantity of the whole amount which is
by each individual in his daily liv-
ing. Drink of all kinds isin great part water,
