Outwftting a Cannibal.

Correspondence OF the San Francisco Bulletin1
One OF the wealthest settlers III New Gale
donia Is a gentleman from Australia lwewil
call him Mr. Brown for SHORTY, who went
there some ten or twelve years ago with but
a small capital, and has become enormous
ly rich by raising cattle for the markets of
Noumca. Mr.. Brown was on his way
through the bush from one OF his outlying
cattie-stations to another, when he lost his
way entirely; wandered about till near
nightfal, and then came upon large ma
tive village. Here he was Hospitality en-
tertained, well fed. and most deferentially
treated by the great chief whose village 1t
was-the chief Atal, l think, whom some
persons regard as the chief mover and lead
er Of this years revolt against the French.
Atal was all courtesy to his white guest,
and when night had fully come conducted
him himself in state to the nut set apart for
his nights repose. ..s..
Fortunately, Mr. Brown was acquainted
with the customs Of the country, and.
among them, knew the common method OF
putting an end to travellers preparatory to
feasting upon them. 1t is follows: The
traveller is kindly received: nothing occurs
to shake his confidence in his host; be is
allotted cabin to himself to sleep in. The
native huts have usually but one opening,
which serves as a door and window both.
When the traveller is supposed to be well
settled in his cabin, this one entrance is
set on fire. Being thatched and made alto
gether Of light wood, it burns very readily,
and the traveller is cooked as we'll as killed.
Then the feast begins.
Being acquainted with these details OF
New Caledonian life, Mr. Brown knew the
,oI,;, IN ,rhiob tho yon norohla foI so cOur-
teousl7 led him might probably become for
him both a tomb and a coohing-stove unless
his wits could save him. He entered the
cabin of the chief, meeting courtesy with
courtesy, till they were both fairly within.
Then Brown, in the prime of life and
athletic, Atal old and infrm, the English
man knew be was more than match for
the savage. He closed the door within the
hut, planted his back firmly against 1t, an q
sitting thus with his hand on his revolver ana
his other weapons obstentatiously displayed,
continued his conversation with the c!llef.
The situation remained unchanged through
out the night. A terrible night it was, no
doubt, for the Englishman, and almost as
bad for the old chief, who again and AGAIN
requested permission to withdraw. INIT:
Brown as frequently declaring he could
not part with him-he should not feel safe
except in his company. When daylight
was fully come, Mr. Brown felt assured
that Atal would not venture to allow his
people openly to attack an individual so
we'll known in the settlements as himself,
and, both issuing forth together from the
hut, he gladly accepted the escort of n
native guide and was safely conducted to
the French settlements, where his adven-
tuHe was the theme of considerable interest.

THE TuEArnE-Mrss LOUISE PoNERoY.-

THE THEATRE--Mrss LOUISE PoMERoY.-
The weather was very unpromising Yester-
day evening until after Z O'Clock, and the
ill-eftects of it were seen in an audience
much smaller than Otherwise would nave
greeted Miss Louise Pomeroy's return to
Richmond. She made fine reputation and
left pleasant memories by her appearance
here i'll Shakspearian characters. and the
desire to see more OF her acting is pretty
general among theatre-goers.
" The Adirondacks," the piece in which
she appeared last night, in the character Of
n coquettish and consequently heartless
widow, was written especially for her.
The first act is by no means brilliant, and is
certainly not intensely interesting. The
other two do very well. They give Miss
Pomeroy the opportunity for n good deal OF
coquetry and some emotional scenes. The
play, while verging on sensationalism, is by
no mcans devoid of humor..
DIr. Edwin Browne, who played Dick
Swiveler in the Katy Putnam troupe, was
cast in part which required him to appear
silly; and lie did it to the best OF his aoil-
ity, which in that particular line is not very
extensive. He is q good comedian is
steadily rising in his profession, and has
many friends here.
Mr.. W. Fl. Lcake is fine actor. His
voice is grand. The soubrette, Miss Estelle
Mortimer, aud the lady who took the part
OF Mrs. Judkins. deserve commendation.
AS for Miss Pomeroy, she is very sweet
and arch and will and should, draw well
in the Adirondacks, notwithstanding the
Richmond people would have preferred to
see her in ShaksDearian characters.
1t will be pleasure for the public to
know, at least, that GAS You Like it" will
be presented at the matinee Saturday after
noon, with Miss Pomeroy as Rosalind.
Next week we are to have Mr.. Joseph
Murphy in his great Irish drama. Kerry
Cow" which is said to be a delightful pic
ture OF Irish life.

A CHURCH oRJEcr1SG TO NoS-TAxArro

A CHURCH DIRECTING TO NoN-TAXATIoN.
1t is rare thing to find anybody who is ex-
cmpted from tax complaining Of the fact,
but the Michigan Conference OF Unitarian
churches has resolved "that whereas the
fundamental principles Of this Government
are based upon absolute separation OF
church and State, and the exemption Of
churches from taxation is al infringement
OF this principle, therefore it does earnestly
protest against this species Of injustice
which compels the indirect taxation OF
many OF our citizens to support forms Of
worship in which they do not believe, and
which demoralizes the ethical standard Of
the churches themselves, making them de-
pendents upon the State, rather than infe-
rior yet independent factors OF it."

CINDERELLA AMONG TIE ARTS At MOZART
HALL To-NIGHT.-Dr. Welter will give his
lecture. entitled "Cinderella Among the
Arts" and piano recital, tonight at Mozart
Hall. In behalf of the Doctor we can state
that he is gentleman OF culture and con-
scientlous and hard-working musician. He
has spent much time and labor in making
this lecture instructive as we'll as interesting
and worthy OF public attention. The piano
recital, for which fine programme has
been selected with the view of illustration,
will doubtless prove highly enjoyable. 1t
includes choice works OF many of the old
masters, and, happily, has the merit Of not
being so long as to tire the audience.
1t is to be hoped this gentleman will meet
With that encouragement from our citizens
which his efforts in the direction OF music.
culture in our midst merits, and that the
same may be attested by the presence OF a
large audience at his lecture tonight.
