Swisher, manager of the Gennett, an
nounces the engagement of the North
Bros Stock company, at the Gennett

day, Nov. 4th, with daily matinees
starting Tuesday. The North Bros.
company came into Richmond last sea
son for weeks engagement practic-
ally unknown, but they had not been
here long until they found warm spot
in the hearts of Richmond theatre 60
ers, and before their week was over. the
house was packed at every perform
ance, and Mrs. Swisher has had nl-
merOus inquiries as to when the North
Bros company would be here. They
broke all house re, Jrds here last sea
son, and there is every reason to be-
lieve that they will enjoy even better
business on this engagement than
they did before. The management
announces that they have a larger
company and a much stronger one
than they had last season. and judg-
ing from press reports from where
they have appeared, thus must be
true, as they have as yet to get an I'M
favorable criticism. They have secur-
ed new plays, and will not repeat a
single play during their engagement
here. The advanced vaudeville which
they introduce between acts is said 20
be away above the average carried by
the average repertoire company. The
lady orchestra has been strengthened
and is said to be one of the best of the
kind. Ladies will be admitted free
on Monday night under the usual con-
ditionS.

Long Faces.

What a sad mistake 1t Is t. suppose
that man should be gloomy because
he is devout, as if misery were ac-
ceptable to God on its own account,
and happiness an. of.nse against his
dignity. A modern writer of much
wisdom and pith says;
"There is secret of unbelief
amongst some men that God is dis
pleased with mans happiness, and 80
they stink about creation. ashamed
ard afraid to enjoy anything
These are the people of whom Hood
says:
They think they're pious when
they're only bilious |"
A good man is almost always
cheerful one. 1t is fit that bad men
scowl, look blue and melancholy, but
he Who has Gods smile Of approba.
ton upon him, should show his radi.
ance in his countenance.
DR.. johnson said he "never knew
a villain in his life that was not on
the whole an unhappy dog" and well
he may be. And an honest man
the man with good conscience-let
him enjoy his sleep, and his dinner,
and love of his wife and the prsttle
of his children, and show a bssming
face to his neighbor. Surely there is
no worse theology than that which
teaches that He who has given such
fnllness of JOY to beasts and birds de-
lights in the misery of men or, that
having filed US with gladness, we
ought to give the lie to his goodness,
by wearing faces beclouded with woe,
and furrowed with pretended happi-
ness.
