THE MIsTLETOE BOUGH.-A large audience
filed Mozart Hall at the matinee yesterday
evening, when the third representation Of
the lovely pantomime Mistletoe Bough
was presented by an adnirably-selected
CORDS OF amateur actors. With each sue
ceeding performance q marked improve
ment has been noticeable, until in this, their
last, degree Of perfection has been
reached seldom attained by professionals.
Not to speak Of the gorgeous costuming,
which was from the baroness down to the
smallest page, simply superb, there was an
ease and grace Of acting not often enjoyed.
Not to enter into minute detail. be it said
that the minuet, the country dance, and the
May-pole dance were beautifully performed,
while Miss Ward, in the leading role OF
" "Genevra," completely captivated the au-
dience. In the second tableau, when seek
ing hiding-place, her acting was very fine :
her every gesture gaveits meaning, as, with
lifelike earnestnesS and youthful simplicity,
she searched the old chamber for nook or
corner wherein to conceal herself from the
company. The Baroness, the Baron, Lord
Lowell, the old housekeeper, and, in fact,
all the company, played we'll their parts, and
deserve not little credit for presenting an
amateur performance so highly interesting
to all who witnessed it and remunerative to
the charitable object for which benefit it was
given. Before each tableau an appropriate
verse of the Mistletoe Bough was chanted
by Mr. William FL. Grant, Jr., and his rich,
solemn notes assisted no little in preparing
the minds of the audience for the sad story
that was being portrayed.

With the above facts is it not time that
we should abandon the James River and
Kanawha canal and build q railroad on its
tow-path? As will be able. in few
DAYS to. show; railroad can be built to
'Lynchburg for less that $1,000 per mile
with iron rail-, and with steel rail for less
than $4,000, provided the canal-banks are
put in the same condition they were before

will be found that $1,000, 900 will complete
the road from Richmond to Clifton Forge,

that sum. Herewith submit bill that will
be presented to our Legislature soon, which
most heartily endorse. This bill is un-
doubtedly in the interest Of the Pennsylya-
mia Central railroad as competitor Of the
Baltimore and Ohio railroad. .,ss,
II there Is any money due Virginia from
the General Government, and IL 1t can be

be made Of it than this bill proposes, as the
bill gives to the Manassas Railroad Company

that the United States Government is in-
idebted to Virginia in the sum OF S1,5Oe,-

James-River Raflrea6.
1oethe Editors of the Dispatch:
Gentlemen Enclosed you have extracts
Of the Auditor OF the Canal Department
OF New York for the year 1877, submitted
to the Legislature of that State January l,
1878.
"The rates of tolls adopted last spring
yielded revenue Of about $SS0,000 for the
calendar year OF 1877. II the tonnage
movement for the first four months of the
approaching season should correspond with
the same period last year, and the same
rates OF tolls prevail, the aggregate tolls
for the fiscal year would be the same in
amount as for the calendar year OF 1877
to wit, SSS0,000, which would be $685.
707.19 less than the expenditures for collec-
ton and repairs last fiscal year. The. ton
mage OF the calendar year OF 1877 would
have yielded about Sl,425, 900 revenue un.
der the rates of 1876 "a deduction Of thirty
eight cents ON the dollar).
'sAlthough the rates OF tolls were reduced
equivalent to one cent per bushel OF sixty
pounds from Buffalo to tidewater, the cost
Chicago to New York by lake and canal has
been higher the past season. than before the
reduction. The average freight from Chi
cago to New York, including the toll from
September 1st to the close OF navigation, was
fourteen cents per bushel In 1877 and eleven
| conts ia -1s1Gr-. -----z :
sThe efforts which are annually made to
obtain from the Canal Board and the Legfs-
lature concessions in the rates Of tolls were
unusually successful last spring. They re-
suited in the total abrogation Of tolls on
boats and certain articles which had almost
ceased to be transported on the canals, and a
reduction Of fifty per cent. in the various
classes Which had heretofore composed the
bulk OF the canal tonnage. The rate
adopted on grain was one half a mill per
l 1000 pounds per mile, equivalent to one
cent per bushel Of sixty pounds, and thirty
four and one half cents per net tor! from
| Buffalo to tidewater."
The report further states:
"Those who are in the habit Of scanning
the reports OF receipts and payments on &C.
count OF the canals find that the eNpendi-
lures for canal purposes have exceeded the
revenues by nearly S35,000,000, and that
this deficiency has been contributed by the
people of the State in taxes levied and
assessed upon their property
| (The canals, then, have cost the people
$50 ,0O0,00O.)
For the past three years the Canal Board
and the Legislature appear to have been
convinced that in consequence OF the sharp
competition of the railroads and the efforts
Of neighboring States to increase their trade
in western products it was hazardous to at
| tempt to realize from the tonnage OF the
canals any more revenue than would barely
suffice to pay their running expenses, leav'
ing the principal aHd interest of the cana
debt to be procured by taxation.
The following is tabular statement Of
ten canals, which are virtually abandoned

Prisoners Recaptured.-Samuel Womack
lwhite) and Snyder Watson (colorcd), who
escaped from the city Jail Sunday night,
were delivered up 10 City Sergeant Fitz-
gerald Thursday night by Special Constable
Stratton, OF Goochland county.
The parties came to Napkin, in that
county. Wednesday. They had their coats
on wrong side out and conducted them
selves in an otherwise suspicious manner.
Afterwards, being discovered in the act OF
making reconnaissance OF 4 store in the
village, Constable StTatton determined to
question them.
Womack stated that they were from
Lvnchburg, and were on their way to Rich
mond, their wagon, laden with tobacco,
being ahead Of them.
After making contradictory statements
they were taken in charge by the officer:
On searching them letters were found
which led the officer at first to believe that
they were escaped convicts from the peni-
Tertiary. A piece OF poetry, however, was
found, on which was written, " Composed
in the Manchester jail" and Mr.. Stratton
having seen The account OF the escape in
the Dispatch, rightly concluded that these
were the parties. After their arrest they
acknowledged that they had escaped from
the Manchester Jail. The prisoners were
handeutfed tsgeJner and safely delivered to
our jailor, as above stated.
Womack' was sent on to the Hastings
Court for swiniling William Hedges OF a
board bill under false. representations, and
has been once whipped for stealing $3.50 in
currency from n. B. Johnson.
Watson was serving out term OF impri-
sonment, with labor, for stealing.
When these parties left they took with
them the clothing Of David 3. Seamans, a
fellow prisoner, and the poetry and letters
alluded to above were his property.
The letters were from Seamans's mother,
in which she spoke "of her great JOY at the
prospect Of his speedy release, and urging
him to come to her Immediately on his re-
