AMIlkEMENTs.

"The Planters Wife," as presented
at the Grand Opera House, last night,
by Mr.. Joseph Wheelock and Miss
Rose Keene, was one Of the most de-
lightful performances of the season,
as is generally the case when miser-
ably small audience is present. The
play abounds in thrilling situations
and strong dramatic points, all of
which were brought out with a reality
that proved intensely interesting. The
support was good, and the entire per-
formance moved off smoothly, from
first to last.
Seats are now being sold at Thomas
81 Co.'s for The Pixley performances
of tomorrow afternoon and evening.
"M'Liss" is an attractive melo-drama,
and Miss Pixley a most delig ghtful
actress. The audiences will be large
at both performances.

The Thanksgiying Market.

The cold, damp and decidedly dis
agreeable weather, this morning, had
the effect OF keeping a great many
people away from market, but for all
that prices ruled pretty stiff. Tur-
kies led off at from ! 9 to IS cents per
pound, though occasionally good bar
gains could be procured from farmers
impatient to get to their homes
Several Instances of this kind were
known where eighteen pound turkies
were bought for $2,a5 and $3.50.
Chickens ranged from 81 to $1.50 per
pair and ducks from 80 cents to $l.25.
Rabbits were plentiful at 80 ceL is per
pair. Butter and eggs ruled high at
45@50 cents per pound and 82935
cents per dozen respectively. Celery
was scarce and dear, 20 cents being
charged for three small brnches.-
