"The BrOad-BrIDmed Hat at she
Theatre.o

Editor Morning NelOs: Is It not strange that
Notwithstanding the well known and gener-
ally conceded desire of the fair ladies of our
city to please and crafty their masculine
friends, that they will persist in wearing
those abominable articles of head gear, de-
nominated, believe, In feminine parlance
by the name of "Texas Jacks" to the Thea
tire. and thus completely obscuring the stage
and the players on it from the view
of those who are so unfortunate
as to have seats behind them, | am now
suffering from a severe crick in the neck,
the result Of frantic efforts to get sight of
the performers at the recent opera over the
top of one of these huge ''Texas Jacks"
which the charming lady IN front of me so
managed to keep osciliating from side to
side in a most extraordinary manner.
In the hope that our ladies may
on the occasion of the next
theatrical entertainment be induced to wear
some kind of head-cOvering less Obiectiona-
BILE, and certainly more becoming, than a
"Texas Jack,'' or broad trimmed hat, which
makes a pretty girl Of twenty look like
disappointed spinster of thirty five, beg
you to publish the following account of the
heroic action Of a lady at a Western theatre,
as detailed in a Northern paper which l
CHANGED to pick up:
ga few nights ago, out West, where all
sorts of odd things happen, lady was seen
coming down the aisle of a theatre with a
broad brimmed hat of exceptional broad
ness and brimness. AS she glided along
she looked just as happy as big suufower,
and her hat bore about the same proportion
to her head as the sunhower does to its
stalk. The attentive reader will at once OBJ
serve that there was nothing odd about
this; that ladies with large hats are not IN
known to theatre goers of this vicinity, and
that her hat could not possibly Rave
been bigger than those with which our
New York bellies obscure the stage. But
wait a moment, and read on patiently.
''All the gentlemen IN the vicinity Of the
broad brimmed lady at once began to pick
up their overcoats and prepared to adjourn
to the nearest clubs or barrooms. Some of
them were veterans who had paid to see the
play a doz IN times and had always been
shut out by a broad brimmed hat Others
had Just dropped In and begun to enjoy
themselves, when this sudden eclipse i'm
pended and drove them forth despairin2lY.
But to their surprise, as soon as the lady
reached her seat, she took off her broad
brimmed hat; threw lace cloud coquettish-
ly over her head, and revealed the entire
stage, unobs cured, to the vision of the per-
sons who sat behind her. In moment every
gentleman In the house sprang to his feet
and three such cheers and a tiger broke
forth that the actors thought they had made
a great hit and bowed their thanks over the
footlights, But the hit was made by the
lady who had taken off her hat"
Hoping Savannah ladies will have the
consideration to act likewise, l subscribe
myself an ENEMY OF THE TEXAS JACK.

Roudoir Of Art and Beauty

One of the most attractive places to visit
in this city, not only to the ssthetic, but to
the more practical lover OF the useful and
ornamental, is HaveDs' Art Gallery, on
Broughton street, which may be without
hesitancy pronounced the finest establish
ment of the kind south Of Baltimore and
east of New Orleans. AT present the gal
lery is unusually attractive and beautiful,
the enterprisiug Ravens having, in
view OF the approaching festal
season, procured a magnificent and
varied stock Of elegant frames, cor
nices, engrsvings, panels. in water and oil,
beautifully mounted, and a large line of
rare articles. Yesterday was his first recep-
tion day of the season, and the gallery was
thronged with ladies from early morn to
dewy eve. Specimens of handsome designs
and enlarged drawings of photographs
could be seen in various parts of the spaci-
GUS apartments, and were very generally
admired. 10 portrait painting, photographs,
and in all branches Of the art, Ravens has
achieved reputation second to none, and
his gallery OF crowded patrons and Others,
attracted by his fame, might have been
looked for on such an occasion.

CENTRAL RAILROAD MANAGE
IENT.
rs IL Wise TO Swap Horses In the
Middle of a Stream2

SAVANNAH, December 12-Edit0r Morning
Nelcs: Newspaper paragraphs over the State
inform us of coming struggle for the con-
troll of the Central Railroad at the election
next month, and the great question at issue
seems to be shall VIM. Nj. Wadley, identified
as he is with every step in the successful
progress of this great corporation, be forced
from his iron throne by parcel of stock
jobbers who seek to divide the treasures
which represent his sagacitY end energy?
VIII the stockholders who have a perma-
nent interest In the welfare OF the road see
It's property divided up, its liabilities in
creased and its credit and very existence
placed in jeopardy for the benefit of horde
OF SPECTATORS? Can there be any wisdom
10 the contemplated action OF the Louis
vile and Nashville Railroad people and their
associates in this watering Of the stock,
thereby causing a corresponding increase in
fixed yearly interest account Ii q person
own ten shares will a scrip divi lend OF fifty
or one hundred per cent. increase his pro-
portionate ownership Of the company's as
sets? Is it not perfectly clear that such
course viii not add one dollar to the proper
ty of the stockholders, but will simply ena-
BILE spectators to take advantage of an eX-
traordinary condition OF things to ill their
pockets and retire from the field, leaving
the company saddled with obligations to be
met regardless of the future fluctuations of
trade or the possible competition Of rival
roads?
Such course as this must inevitably END
in the destruction Of the stock itself and
the ultimate ruin OF the company. Does
any stockholder believe that Mr.. Wadley's
management will result in the loss of his
property? Judging by the past, can there be
any fears for the future Of the company in
his hands, and,it none, then why seek to put
It In the hands of men whose declared
policy is one OF increased Indebtedness with
its consequent train of evil results?
Scrip dividends represent nothing but
corresponding depreciation of stock.

Yesterday afternoon about three O'Clock,
Whitaker street, in the neighborhood Of
State, was in tumult of excitement Incl
dent to a fine coon which had escaped from
some country wagon at the Market and
meandered up the street and sought refuge
in the large tree in front of the City Dis
pensary. A large crowd collected in the
vicinity aud a venturesome youth was sent
slOft TO dislodge the coon from the branch
where he had ensconced himself. The coon
was a sly fellow, as he usually is, and after
various lodging, managed to get out OF the
tree and elade his pursuers.
