Fun at Bolton.

Mr.. EDITOR: Perhaps it is not known to
many of your readers that there is an or
ganized company of theatrical performers
in the town OF Bolton. On last Thursday
evening it was my good luck, to be able @ 70
attend an entertainment given by "The
Amateur Theatrical Company" of the en-,
terprising place. The programme consisted
of four charades, and it is hard to say
which Of the four proved most amusing
and attractive, or which OF the corps dis
played most dramatic talent, for the whole
was so finely rendered and each part so ex.
celleptly sustained that I can hardly feel
competent to judge. Am very sure, how
ever, that among the company there are
those who can walk the boards as well,
and better, than many professionals. we
congratulate our Bolton friends that they
have such source of pleasure and amuse-
,nent in their midst, and cordially recon-
mend any who may have the opportunity
to attend one OF these entertainments in
person to do, and if they have even half as
good time as had, they will not regret
/ spent two very pleasant days with these
good people, and aided to the best Of my
ability two of the leading citizens (Messrs.
Stringer and Lewis) in demolishing two
fine turkey dinners. Friend S. informed
me that be had another large gobbler in re-
serve for new year. But alas for human
expectations; he informed me the next
day that some sneak thief bad invaded the
roost and blasted his hopes. He took the
loss like philosopher, and his face looked
as bright aud genial as the day before when
his mind was revelling i'll visions OF turkey
in the future. ..

Pleasant Entertainments.

The Plume Drill of the cadets of the:
Military School took place in YanWyck's
Hall on Thursday evening, Goth ult. For
several weeks previous the cadets had taken
advantage Of every spare moment for the
purpose Of practicing the manual Of arms
for the occasion, which was looked forward
to with pleasant anticipations, every one, of
course, resolving TO do his best and en-
deavor to get the plume. AS the time set
for the entertainment approached, the In
terest increased. Accordingly iat ar early
hour on the above mentioned evening q
laYeesudience, composed of both ladies
,snd gentlemen, filled the spacious hall, each
;oneeager to witness the contest. Promptly
at 8 o'clock the cadets marched into the
hall, their uniforms, guns and accoutre-
ments looking as bright and clean as new
pin. The judges, Col. ]. E. Allen, Capt.
It. F. Hill and Sergt. G. G. Langston, took
their position in front of the Company,
which was drilled by Capt. Foster FAINT and
Capt. Ernest Cochran alternately. The
ranks were gradually reduced, until the
contest was narrowed down to MIR. +. q.
DuPre, Of AbbeYille, and Mr.. L. N. Mar
tin, of this County. These young gentle
uleu F1cu Will CdCu OtucG lOI oOAA0 I1tAS1
when finally the judges awarded the plume
to Mr.. DuPre as being the best drilled cadet.
All of the cadets did remarkably well,
evincing thorough training and rejecting
mnch credit on their drill masters and the
school. The little boys, especially, were
admired by all the spectators for their pro-
6ciency in the manual. The occasion was
highly enjoyed by all present.
Friday was the last day of the school
previous to the holiday vacation, and the
cadets had determined to follow up the
plume drill with an entertainment at the
University on this evening. Invitations
had been issued by them to their respective
friends. When we arrived at the Univer-
sity quite crowd OF ladies and gentlemen
were present. The Young America Cornet
Band was discoursing some e1cellentmusic,
and the young couples were promenading,
chatting and having good time. This
was kept up until about 10 o'clock, when
the spacious chapel was thrown open and
all invited to enter and partake OF boun-
tiful supper, consisting Of everything that
an epicurean could wish for. We do not
remember to have seen greater display
and variety of tempting viands spread on
any previous occasion. After supper there
was a prize drill for a handsome cake.
| This contest finally narrowed down to Mr.
Henry Stephens, Of this city, and Mr.. F. G.
DuPre, OF Abbeyille, when the judges de'
cided to award two cakes, the first TO Mr.
Stephens and the second to Mr.. DuPre;
The entertainment was pronounced by all
as being a most delightful occasion, and
will long be remembered by those present
