DEPARTURE OF THE NEW STEAMSHIP MAN
HATTAN.-Tbe fine new steamship Manhat-
tan, Of the Old Dominion Line, which ar
rived here on Saturday morning, sailed for
New York on Sunday afternoon. Among
the passengers who came out in her from
New York were Mr. George V. Sleat, engi-
neer-in-chief; Captain Fl. A. Bourne, gene
raj superintendent; n. L. McCready, Esq,
president, and Mr.. W. H. Stanford, secre-
lary OF the Old Dominion Steamship Com
paiy. The first two named gentlemen came
as far as Richmond, but the others got off
at Norfolk. They had most delightful
trip, and express themselves as much
pleased with the behavior OF the Man
haitian on her first trip. She is an iron
screw-yessel of 1925 tons capacity, and
is 240 feet long. Her other dimensions, &C.,
have already been described in the Dis
patch. Her saloon is finished in hard wood
French walnut and Hungarian ash), and is
upholstered in crimson plush. The saloon
is supplied with revolving-chairs OF modern
style. In fact, no expense seems to have
been spared in making her tirst-class pas
senger-ship in every respect. She is pro-
nounced to be model Of marine architec-
ture, and by reason OF her excellent fitting,
is thought to be remarkably safe vessel
for passenger traffic. ..sfs.. --.-
Captain j. FL. Kelly, formerly OF the
steamship Richmond, has command Of the
Manhattan. He is assisted by N. j. Jenny,
first officer. The chief engineer is Mr.. C..
Evans. Mr.. T. Mccormick, formerly Of
the Isaac Bell. is the purser, while Mr.. Jim
Booth, so we'll and favorably known to all
the patrons of the Old Dominion Line. is the
steward of this fine new vessel, and will ad-
minister to the wants OF the inner man.

Mr.. FoRD's PINAFORE COMPANY AT THE
TuEATRE.-Mr. Ford's original Pinafore
company reached Richmond yesterday by
the New York steamer, and appeared at the
Theatre last night, playing TO 4 splendid
audience. This company comes with 4
splendid reputation, which they sustained
most admirably in their. first performance
here. AS matter Of course they were pre-
vented from their usual rehearsal yesterday,
as they did not reach the city until the af.
ternoop; but the ease with which they sang
and acted gave one the idea that the COM
pany had spent the day in perfecting them
selves for the nights performance. Pima
fore we hear whistled and hummed from
one end Of Richmond to the other; and yet
1t seems as popular as 1t was when first pro-
duced in London in May, 1873, since which
time 1t has been running with great success
throughout America. There is something
in the opera which is very attractive, al
though the plot is poor:
The cast last evening was as follows: Sir
lJoseph Porter, r. e. B., Mr. George W.
Denham; Captain Corcoran, Mr.. s. G..
Young; Ralph Rackstraw, Mir. Ed. W.
Hoff: Dick Deadeye, Mr.. Joseph S. Green's
fielder: Bill Bobstay, j. e. Reibert; Bob
Beckett, j. AtWell; MILDLY, j. D. Ford /;
Josephine, Miss Marie Bockel; Buttercup,
Miss Lizzie Annandale; Cousin aebe, Miss
Belle Mackenzie; Aunt, Miss e. Pressey.
The orchestra played for the overture al
most all the music OF the opera-certainly
the music Of all of the choruses-and the
curtain rose; on the quarterback OF her
Maiesty's ship. displaying as pretty stage
setting as one cares to see in Pinafore. The
openfng chorus, :" We Sail the Ocean Blue y
was well sung by about fifteen male voices,
and the audience were at once assured that
they were not to be disappointed Ill the rest
OF the performance. ;,
