Ii should be borne in mind that the
young ladies are making this effort
to raise funds with which to relieve
the wants of the city poor, and
every encouragement should be Civ
en- them in their laudable work, in
behalf of so praiseworthy an object.
That the affair will be a success
goes without saying

Texarkana, by neighboring towns
and cities, both in Arkansas and
Texas, has at last been withdrawn
and, with the action Of authorities
at Hope, AK, the last quarantine
restriction against our city, by any
place of note, has been withdrawn.
This might have been the case with
equal propriety, week ago, and
doubtless would have been, but foI
false and exaggerated rumors,
which have been circulated abroad
against the city, by irresponsible
persons. We trust that the yer.
dict of our nearer neighbors, in this
regard will be acceptedb by the pub

today a woetul lack of appreciation of

this the stage boasts OF but one recog-

last evening in Richard III, with
whicn play his name is inseparably at

That Mr. Eeens iS favorite in this

higher form of amusement than is af

prevalent were evidenced by the large
and enthusiastic audience that greeted
the Richard of actor Keens at the

1t was three years ago since Mr..
Kesne had previously appeared in this
