"A COMEDY OF ERRORS" AT THE GRAND.
Last night at the Grand Opcra-housc
Messrs. Robson and Crane with the mem
bers OF the Olympic Company supporting
them, presented Shakspeare's masterpiece
OF comedy, the COMEDY OF Errors This
was the first time this piece has been seen
here within the memory OF the present
generation OF theater-goers. For Messrs.
Crane and Robson, the representatives o!
the two hDromios," the occasion was joy
Gus triumph. By the aid OF the perruquier
and dresser they made up to degree OF
resemblance positively startling. The bur-
den OF the work fell, OF course, Oh Mr..
Crane, since Mr.. Robson can not initiate
ANYBODY, and the former actor was sur
prisiueIy successful i'll modulatng his full
resonant voice to the tones OF Mr.. Robson $
~soueak." In two scenes the fun was up
xoarious, that before the house OF Anti
pholus of Ephesus" in which the rightful
master OF the dwelling is barred out while
hi. wife entertains his double at dinner,
and the scene Of the mart, at the end of the
second act, when 'Dr. Pinch" and his assist
ants attempt to capture the supposed mad
men.
Mr Charles Webb, the survivor of the
famous Webb brothers, known as the
"Dromio WebbS," who has endowed the
present performance with the wealth of his
experience and great store Of tradition,
played "-Rgeon" with careful accuracy. The
members OF the regular company had evil
IDENTIFY put in good deal Of hard work, for
they acquitted themselves handsomely. The
audience was fine one-by far the finest
of the week. The Comedy Of Errors"
will be presented the remaining two nights
and al the Saturday matinee

The MOUNTAIN Meadow.

that the scene of the Mountain Mead.
ow massacre is now the very picture
Of desolation. Before the Mormons
murdered one hundred and thirty.
one inEocent men, women and child
rem there in 1857, the Meadows we're
known far ano eide as a paradise in
the desert, with abundance OF grass,
crystal streams, and evcrAowing
springs. To-day the grass is gone,
the water courses dried up, and
nothing bat drsary waste marks
the orce beautiful spot. 1t is said
that the earth is also sinking, and the
bones which were collected after the
massacre, ,hough thrice buried, con.
tinue to reappear, while settlers in
the vicinity shun the spot as haunted
and say that the winds from the
meadows bring piercing cries for
help to their ears.

South" that they cannot bulldoze
the whole country.
; 1t will probably turn out that Gen.
Grant, instead of being, as reported,
willing to take the Presidency of the
1ntaroecanic Canal Company, is in
favor of Capt. Eads' project for
Marine railway across the Isthmus,
to transport loaded ships. He is
warm friend of Capt. Eads, and has
a high opinion of his engineering
skill.
Pursuant to an invitation extended
by Mr.. John N. Garrett, President
Of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad,

al Fair Association visited Baltimore

conference with him relative to the

in making the fair a success. The
visit was very satisfactory. The ar
rangements for the fair are going

IT is reported that number of
Portland's wealthiest citizens have
associated themselves together for
the purpose of laying out and i'm.
proving fair ground for Oregon,
Washington and Idaho. The grounds
will probably be located short dis
tance north of Portland, where
beautiful piece of land, containing
about $50 acres can be obtained, and
negotiations are now pending, which
is handsomely 10 ocat0d, with a fine
view of East Portland, Portland and
the Willamette river. A natural
site for mile track exists, it being
around hill having gradual slope
ON all sides. Pavilions much larger
than the one erected by the Me-
chanics' Fair association will be
built, substantial booths, and thor
oughly finished stables, built on
plan of convenience and beauty.
The society will also construct mar
row guage railraad to the city, so
that visitors can be carried to and
from in comfort.

TRACK for the Utah and Northern
railroad is now laid and trains are
running to new terminus known as
Devils Dive mot far from Pleasant
Valley 40 miles northward from the
late terminus at Cana, Idaho, and
2S4 miles from Ogden. A few more
miles will bring the road into Mon.
tana, which is now the only Territory
in the United States, except Alaska,
that has no railway. The road is
now the longest continuous narrow
gauge line in the United States,
though it has not so many miles as
the Denver and Rio Grande. But
the main line of that road is only
259 miles long.

the GREAT COLUMBIA PLAINS.

MT. Phillip Ritz, oil Walla Nalla,
in a letter describing the great
plains of the Columbia, through
which the Pen d'Oriella division Of
the n. p. r. r. is soon to be con.
structed, gives some startling facts
Of the immensity ofthst country.
ut embraces scope of 450
miles north and south, 10y 250 miles
east and west and is capable of pro.
ducing fully 100,000,000 bushels of
wheat per annum. There has not
been failure of a crcp for twenty
years, where the land has been put
in proper cultivation, and seeded in
good season. A very remarkable
fact about the soil is that the same
fields have produced great crops for
twenty years in succession without
any fertilization. This led TO an an.
alzation of the soil, which shows it
to be composed Of the very elements
that will produce the most perfect
crop of wheat in abundance and in
unlimited succession. The soil is
very largely made up of volcanic
ashes, and carbonate of lime, the
proportions being almost the same
as the great wheat fields of Chill,
and the Island of Sicily, and the
country bordering on the Bay of
Naples, which has been the granary
for Southern Europe for ages, and
has furnished Rome with wheat for
1000 years. These facts, with
mild and heathful climate, render
this country Of great commercial i'm
portance.
The Northern Pacific railroad in
running from the mouth Of Snake
river to Pen d'Oreille Lake would
pass directly through this great
wheat belt, and would supply the
one great need, fuel and lumber,
which could be brought cheaply over
from the great coal and lumber
country of the Puget Sound basin
on returning trains.
This extensive country is well
watered and at present covered with
the nutritious bunch grass, making
it very desirable country, for rails
ing horses, cattle and sheep; but it
is almost unknown to commerce,
where, if it had railroad facilities,
there could be found homes and EN-.
ployment for more than 100000 per-
sons from the overcrowded countries
of the Atlantic States"
The day is not distant when the
great wheat-growing plains of East.
ern Washington, Oregon and Idaho
will naturally turn to Puget Sound
for their outlet. Then tho railroad
whistles will deafen the residents of
the Port Townsend peninsula, as the
road must pass on the west side of
Olympia, and make its terminus
where large ships can come with
safety.

PRESIDENT Hayes, in his reply to
President Pendleton of the Cincin-
natl Industrial Exhibition, who wei
coined him to the fair Sept. 10, said
that the revival of prosperity was
due largely to the fact that values
are measured and made steadier by
a currency that is worth its face in
the markets of the world, and that
credit rests upon a sound and staple
basis.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.

The progress of Republicanism in
the North, and the prospect that
every northern State will be republ-
can in future, inspires alarm among
the Southern Brigadiers. This is
manifested in several ways. When
the Democratic National committee
met here, Chalmers, Hampton & Co.
proposed to them the policy of tax
ing the choice of presidential electors
away from the polls, and giving it to
the Legislatures of the South. Be-
f, re the war South Carolina chose its
electors in that way, and the Consti-
tuition does not prohibit it. 1t is
costrary to democratic republican
ideas Of government, but that does
not stand in the way Of those South
ern oligarchs. The fact is they are
afraid that the coorel majorties of
South Carolina, Florida, Louisiana
and other states will assert their
right to vote next year, and they
want to provide against the possibil
ity of being beaten in the popular
vote. They can elect Legislatures
without the interference of federal
authority, but they cannot elect pres
idential electors, without such super.
vision that fraud and bulIdozing will
bs difficult. Nothing could better
illustrate the fears that besct the
Democratic usurpers, than this trick
to cheat the voters and to subvsrt
the United States government by All
oligarchy.
But this is not the only trick they
are practicing. The Republicans of
South Carolina, and other States
have been recognizing lately pre-
paratory to the campaign of 1880.
This is against Democratic wishes
and Hamburg Buffers men have in.
augurated the old system OF re-
preston. The shooting of the P. M.
at Blackville is but one of many in
stances of violence that have already
been discovered. 1t is probable
that the bulldozsrs will not practice
this system extensively against U.
s. officers, for the government will
discontinue the service il its officials
cannot be protected. But no active
Republican organizer can BE expect
ed to have peace or even life for
long time in any of the Southern
States whe re there is an actual Re.
publican majority to be kept down.
Gen. Grant will not be in Wash
ington, probably, until after the as
sembling of Congress. He will meet
with warm receptions in the east
from all classes.
Minister Langston, who is now
here from Hsyti, will lecture on the
exodus of the colored people from
the South. He is firm believer in
it, as is Fred Douglass now, although
opposed to it at first. Everybody
who loves freedom and justice be-
leves in it now as the most practi-
cable remedy for the terrible evils
that beset the colored people.
The P. NJ. General announces that
he will close the postal service to
those parts of the South where the
officials are bulldozed. This is well.

Of Representatives will make the
choice, the delegation from each
State having one vote. AS the

cans, and one Greenbacker. 1t has
been suggested that the Democrats

r. S. Thomas.

This accomplished lawyer OF Isle Of
Wight, who has been recently nominated
for the Senate from that senatorial district,
is attracting deserved share Of public at
tention. The Norfolk Landmark pays the
following tribute to his ability and to his
public worth:
s.Mr. Thomas will do honor to his con-
stituents; he would do honor to any con-
stituency in the State, for be is not only a
close student and thinker, but he pos
sesses qualities which will make him for
midable man in debate, on the hustings, or
in the Senate. On the special issue Which
so distracts aud divides our people, no man
is better informed. He understands it in
its legal, its monetary, and It's politico-
economical aspects, and his opinions on
this vital question are entitled to respect in
any assembly, popular or delberatiye. Add
to these claims his personal excellence, and
we do not see how he can be beaten, nor
do we expect any such result from his en-.
li.htened constituents.
