Although tbe prices were somewhat higher tban usual, tbat did net keep the ptople away, and when tbe curtain rolled up tbe house was packed as It has seldem been be fore. The play Is the ene In which Mr. Emmet first made himself famous, but It baa, of course, undergone a great many changes since last seen here. The story of the plece is a simple one, but It furnishes a geed vehicle for Mr. Emmet's work. 3 tore lane doubt tbat he Is a capital comedian, and his many Imitators have been unable te compete successfully with him. His dle dle leet la simple and his easy, pleasing and graceful manners have greatly alded htm In becoming popular.

In the character of FrUt he made plenty cf fun latf evening, and It was evident from the opening of the play tbat tbeaudlence was with him. Everything that be did feicmeJ te meet their approval and be was greeted with thunders of ap plause. In the second and third acts, when tie appeared with tbree mischlevieus look leok loek lng;chlldron,nnd cut up all klndsef pranks, tbeaudlence almost went wild.

Thirty-two yesrs age Jeseph Mile, of Mlllerten, Dutchess county, N. Y., deserted his wife and child after a seemingly happy married lite of two years and roved away westward. When the civil war broke out Jeseph Miles enlisted among the first volunteers in a central New Yerk regiment and served faithfully through the struggle until tbe O7ertbrew of tbe rebellion. After his discharge from the army, appar ently cured of bis propensity for wander ing, he settled down in business In the town of Sidney, Delawsra county, snd be came known as au Industrious and worthy citizen. On rinding herself deserted, the young wife and her baby beu returned te the house et her father, a well-to-de farmer, and have remained at the old homestead during the long 3 eat a of their bereave ment. A few days age Jeseph Miles bought one et the handsomest and most productive farms In Delaware county, near the village of Sidney a farm that had been In the pos session of the Johnsten family for mere than a century.

Tftere Is a prebllity that the conference of 1859 will be held at the Duke street church, Lancaster. Slany Licenses Iterated.

As a result et this liberal and quite unexpected exercise of the dlicretkn vested In the court by the new law there will be this year but 335 saloons In these ward, with a row possible additions, sgainBt 1,311 new open. The decision of theceurt came like a bkw te the liquor men, who had net expected tbat any announcements would be umue until tbe applications from all tbe wards shall have been beard.

IOLE TALK IX HIK SENATE. Tne Clscnselen of lha New Hampshire Hem bar's Bdl Becomes Warm. WAsniNOTON, March 20 A lively de bate waa precipitated In the Senate te day by amotien by 'Mr. Blair te refer a bill providing tbat when persons who had been disloyal are te be appointed te the public service, distinction shall be made in favor of these who served In tbe Confederate army or navy and sustained wound. Mr. Hale protested against tbe bill an ex tending te Cenfederate veterans the principles or a distinction justly made 1 favor of Union soldiers. Mr. Piatt said that he was opposed te re cognition In any way et service in the Con federate cause. Mr. Berry said that as au ex-Confederate he would net ask such legislation, but he must recegn!z9 it as just and generous, and must repel any Insinuations that the Con federate veteran waa surpassed In bravery or of love or country by the Union veteran or by any ether man . Mr, Piatt sclJ he did net wish te revlve war memories, but that it was time te pre test when tbe declaration was made in tbe United States Senate tbat the Confederate soldier was tbe ceer of the Union soldier In love otceuntry. His love of oeuntry was measu'red by his attempts te destrey it. Mr. Blair defended his bill. Appoln' Appeln' menta were being made te the civil service of persons who bad been disloyal, and In selecting sueh persons Just loe waa net be ing done te tbe brave men who had sus tained wounds In battle. Mr. Hear oppeied the bill as an unjust dis crimination te that element In tbe south which had rendered eminent service te the whole country before and since the war, but bad net actively participated In It. This became the text for a ringing speech by Mr. Rlddleberger. He said that tbe emlnenig services ct tbe class referred te bad been directed te bringing en a war involving tbe younger generation In In calculable suffering and leis, while these Instigators took no part In tbe perils of battle and begged cilice at tbe hands of the federal government. If there was In this country a clasa against which dis crimination could be Justly made, It wai tbat referred te and the bill under dltous dlteus dltous Bleu wai a simple measure of justice te these who bore the burden of a war In which they had little Interest and for which tbey were net responsible Mr. Hampton opposed the bill en the slmple ground that all discriminations are wrong, and that no ethor consideration should enter Inte tbe selection et federal officeholders than tbe question et fitneis. Mr. Geerge olalmed that tbe worthy mo tives actuating the bill has entitled It te the erdlnsry courtesy et committee reference, After further pretests against the bill by Messr.
