The flood is about over, as indications
point to gradual falling of Rock river
and its tributaries. The Mississippi has
gone down considerably in the past TWEEN
ty-four hours, and this decline will have a
tendency to carry off the accumulated
water in the Rock river basin. The most
damaging part of the flood is now thought
to be over, but the receeding of the waters
may result in additional injury which is
not now thought of.

THE THEATRE LAST NIGHT-USCLE
DAN'L.-Mr. b. Macluley and his good
company opened at the Theatre last eve
ming 10 very large audience. The
orchestra was well filed, the dress-circle
better, and the gallery was literally packed.
The greeting which "Uncle Dan'I" re-
ceiyed was in marked contrast with his first
appearance on our boards. Before he was
not well patroniZed, but he was seen, and
so thorough an appreciation OF the excel.
lence OF the entertainment gotten that its
merit has now been rewarded with what
has been denied some first class perform.
ances here this seasoD-a well.tlled house.
And an evening OF great enjoyment and
hearty Laughter seemed to crafty all who
attended.
The play Of "Uncie Dan'l" is an inter-
estIne story well told. The climax is
reached by careful but natural gradation
in the scale OF heightening interest, and,
above all, the beautiful touches OF nature
are not marred BY situation or suggestion
that could be construed as improper. The
continual lriumphs OF the broad.shouldered,
OpeD-hearted, and honest e" Messenger from

and tractable little heroine, whom he res
cues from service In low GROCERY over
shafpers OF Boston, and finally the villain

and last evening called forth an ex-
preston from the boys in the gal
lery that would have done credit to
q band Of savages. The play ~ good
one, and " the creation OF Mr.. Macauley,
who breatbes into it a natural life that in
tensites the work OF the author. The COM
pany has been well selected, and has q
charming little "Clip" ~ the person OF
Miss Victory Creese. She ~ q bright, natu.
raj little actress, and won much favor with
her audience. Mr.. Macauley is so clever in
his impersOnafiOn OF "UDcle Dan'l" that
it would be pity for any theatre.goer to
miss the opportunity Of seeing him ut the
