ness Of certain persons holding city,
and elected to county Offices; that
even the pulpits gave no sound Of
remonstrance;5 all of. which, he said,

Everybody Was PIeased-A large
audience was delighted Saturday even
ing with isis, Hopkins at the Athe-
neum. Miss Melville was certainly
original in her characterization Of the
odd little country girl and the balance
of the company was far above the
average support, in fact it is but fair
to say it was the most evenly balanced
company of good actresses and actors
which has visited the city for many a
day. The company spent Sunday in
the city, leaving today for the
west. The EAtheneum management is
to be congratulated upon the excellent
attractions given this fall, as, with the
exception of one or two transforming
companies, all have been squal to the
best that visit the larger cities. Very
little. of the scenery carried by the
isis Hopkins" company could be used
ON the local stage owing to it's
smallness. T..
