Theatrical.

Each succeeding season adds to Little Rocks importance as theatrical centre The season just closed has been the brightest and best that this city has yei known and the coming season will, with out doubt, be better than the last. It is not chance that has brought Little Rock to the more favorable notice of theatrical managers 1t IS mainly due to the enter prise of George H. Hyde. proprietor and manager of the Capital Theatre, that the citizens have been favored with more and better attractions during the past season than ever before. The Capital The atre being the only public hall Tn the ely, with auditorium on the ground floor, more favorably located than any other house in the city, with ample means of ingress and egress, en- dorsed by the leading citizens for the ex- cellent provisions made for safe and rapid exit in case of panic, it recommends itself, both to the public and to profes- sionals. During the season just closed many of the best opeTa;ic and dramatic combinations on the road have used Hyde's Capital Theatre with the greatest success. Enjoying the perfect confidence of the people, the Capital Theatres audiences feel no apprehension of dan ger from fire or stampede, and a good troupe oanno, fail to draw the whole theatre going element of the city. Be fore the next season opens the seating capacity of the Capital theatre will be in- creased, the stage enlarged. new scenery and new dressing-rooms added, making it one of the handsomest, safest and most comfortable houses in the country Managers of troupes that contemplate southern and western tours, during the next season, should correspond at once with Mir. Hyde.

| found General Grant in his library,
among a mass of papers and books, hard at
work on his history of the siege of VickS-
burg, one of a series Of works on the civil
war, which, when finished, will doubtless
give to the world an impartial and thorough
history OF that great epoch in our nations
life. SO buried was he in his work that
when began talking with him his answers
were in military style; but he afterwards
spoke as earnestly as if he were giving an
order Just before some great battle. By
and by he Quoted down and related an in,
cident of the siege before entirely unknown
to me. In a well modulated tone he said
in his own characteristic way:
The order was given to FIRE the mine
and Immediately after the fuse blazed
brightly. The next instant terrific eX
plOSion occurred and human beings were
seen to shoot high into the air. Some Of
them fell to the earth fearfully mangled,
while others, wonderful it is to relate, fell
back alive, but with terrible wounds
Among those who escaped death was a ro-
bust colored man who had been engaged on
the Confederate side as miner. He was
in the mine at the time the order to fire was
given, but had not reached deep enough
when the explosion took place, and, in con-
sequence, he was blown high into the air.
He fell on a pile Of earth unhurt He wss
first taken into my headquarters, where he
gave the officers present full information
about the construction and location Of the
Confederate shaft and his experience while
in the air. When asked how far he thought
he had gone up he said: oh, Lord o
massa, went up bout three to five miles,
but done thank the Lord He landed me
within the Yankee lines.
Here the great soldier laughed as heartily
as if the incident had occurred only yester-
day. l was very glad to find him in such q
cheerful mood, as his late business troubles
must have worried him considerably. He
has finished the battle of Shiloh and he will
soon write, from a strictly impartial stand
point, an account of Lees surrender at APP
