THE DAILY EVENING TELEQRAPil PHILADELPHIA. FRIDAY, MARCH 10, 18(1. A (aiOST AT COLLEGE. I'pronr la a, Tenare Female Kdarntlaanl aiitata A Npeealatlve Appar'tlaa Wha Orrn the Prier?f l'rnm the Memphis Avalanche, March 6. South Memphis Is in a furore of excitement over occurrences of a supernatural nature re cently ninde public, and which concern the Brinkley Female College and Its Inmates. The college is a spacious frame structure, with rather a sombre and dreary aspect, situated at or near the Intersection of Georgia and Le Soto streets. The school at present numbers between forty and filtr pupils. Among them Is a Miss Clara Robinson, daughter of Mr. Robinson, an attor ney, residing on De Soto street, lier age is about thirteen years, and her temperament Is of the nervous kind, while her health is rather what might be called delicate. THK MTSTERT. One week ago last Tuesday Miss Clara was alone in one of the upper rooms of the Institute practising her music lesson; an apparition sud denly appeared before her In the shape of a girl of about eight rears of age, with sunken, lustre less eyes, and strikingly emaciated form and features. The object was virtually a skeleton in appearance, clad in a dingy and tattered dress of faded pink, which was partly covered with a crecnisb and slimy fold. It seemed also to be transparent. A sad expression rested npon the features of the strange vleitor. Naturally the virion spoke quickly, in a mild, pleasant tone, and said, ''Don't be alarmed, Clara, MI NAME IS LIZZIE. I will not hurt yon.'' Clara stood transfixed with terror. The vision spoke again, and in a distinct tcne related that the Brinkley College property was hers by right, title, and deed; that its ptesent pretended owners held It ille gally, bavii'g no shadow of claim to it what ever; that ttiera was no one else to claim it, as her people were all dead, and she herself was tbe last one that had died., ibe desired Clara to obtain the papers which she had previously mentioned to her, and with them in her posses sion claim and retain the property in her own name and right. Unless she did so she never would do ;rood to or for any one. Of course all this soon spread among the usually quiet people of South Memphis. Several young ladies went home frightened out of their wits, and several others were affected with illness, some it was feared eeriously. The Alined Heeret Trennre Discovered Decumenla aad Parcels Found as Indicated by the Spectre. The Avalanche of the 7th inst. continues the strange story as follows: ANOTHER APPARITION. During Sunday Clara remained undisturbed by ghostly visitants, and, although extensively interviewed, managed to attend Sunday school in the morning and church in the evening, at tended to the Tatter place by Mr. Franklin, a neighbor! She passed a quiet night and was quite cheerful yesterday morning, though think ing frequently of the occurrences of the past few days. While in tbe yard back of her resi dence, No. 261 De Soto street, however, in com pany with a young friend, about 9 o'clock, she was startled by the sudden appearance ot THE Sl'EC'TRE OF BRINKLEY COLLEGE, and screaming directed to it the attention of her companion, who ran away in affright, though she saw nothing. The spectre, like the ghost of Hamlet, chided Clara for her tardiness in un earthing the secret, and was answered that it could not be found, when it rejoined that Clara must go and seek it herself, or that others would get It. The spectre then disappeared, and Clura ran in trepidation into the house, where she narrated her adrenture. It was re Eolved by the inmates to proceed at once to the excavation, which they did, Clara going with Miss Franklin, a neighbor. Mr. Robertson, ac companied by the medium and two diggers, and following the direction of the spirit, to make a long story short, nfter digging an hour or more into the brick work, POUND A GLASS JAR, which he passed up to the medium, whereupon they proceeded to Mr. Robertson's residence, followed by an excited crowd. The jar was at once delivered to Clara, who, regarding its pos session as an end to her unearthly visitations, received it with transports of delight, and np to a late hour was in the happiest mood imagin able. The jar bore evidence of long conceal ment, being covered with mould. True to the instructions from the spirit, it was not opened, but through its sides could be seen several bags and packages, together with what appeared to be a large yellow envelope. Mr. Robertson states that in accordance with the request of the spirit, the jar will not be opened for CO days, at the end of which period every fact that may be elicited by an investiga tion of the recovered treasure will be given to the public. J1181C AL AN1 l It ASIATIC 'II Trovatore" by the German Tronpe. Last evening an exceptionally good perform ance of Verdi's well-worn opera of II Trovatore was given at the Academy of Music, by the German troupe. Madame Llchtmay sang the - part of "Leonora," Madame Frederic! that of "Azucena," Derr Bernard that of "Manrlco," and Herr Vierling that of the -'Count Dl Luna." Each of these leading roles was ably and ac ceptably sustained, and it is seldom that the opera, as a whole, has been given so satisfac torily. Madame Llebtmay's full, rich voice was displayed to rare advantage, while Madame Frederic! fitted unexpectedly well into the con tralto part of "Azucena." Both Ilerr Bernard and Ilerr Vierling were admirable, and alto gether their performances last evening were the best that they have given during their stay in the city. "St. Ware" at the Chesnut. Mr. Davenport has good reason to be gratified with his success at the Chesnut, and he has both fame and fortune now in his grasp if be has the tact to maintain the present high standard of excellence in his entertainments. He accepted the management of the theatre under peculiarly discouraging circumstances, which made suc cess not an easy thing to win, and yet in spite of all drawbacks, not the least of which was a popular prejudice against the house itself, he has excited a genuine enthusiasm among the best 'class of playgoers, and has crowded the theatre night after night with highly cultivated aadlences. Asto nishing as It may appear to those who have known Mr. Davenport a merits for many years, bis recent performance of ' Sir Giles Overreach" appears to have been the first premonition many persons have had ot the fact that he U really a great actor in very many respects the greatest upon the American stage. Now that be has made a bit of the most decided cheracter, tbe future of bis enterprise at the Chesnut ought to be no longer an uncertainty. ' Last night the romantic play of St. Marc; or, A Euthand's Sacrifice was presented to a very large audience; in fact, the house was uncom fortably full; not even standing room could be bad at the rising of the curtain. The play was acted throughout In remarkably fine tvle. This Diece is one of the best modern romantic plays on tbe stage, and both In the interest of its plot, the effectiveness of its dramatic situations, and in the beauty ol its Bin miaee. it is entitled to take a high rank. There ould scarcely be a ereater contrast between two characters than there is between "St. Marc," the frank, generous, open-hearted, and valorous sol dier, and "Sir Giles Overreacu, tne mean, in triguing, malicious, and ambitious usurer; and the performance last evening, therefore, was ad lulrablv aulted to display Mr. Davenport's re markable versatility. The character of "St. Mart" has been a Uvorlu with ,Mr. Davenport for a number of years, and he has frequently represented it in this city, but never with finer effect than last evening, or amid more enthusi astic demonstrations of delight upon the part of his audience. The support was creditable throughout, Mrs. Davenport ns the heroine "Dinorah," and Mr. Thome as the fanatic "Glsmondo," being espe cially excellent. Yaa tJHv Amaaemtiaca. At the Academy of Music Mr. Max Maretzck will have a benefit this evening, when Von Giovanni will be represented. At tbe matinee to-morrow, Stradella will be performed, and to-morrow evening there will be a farewell performance for tho benefit of Madame Llchtmay, when the second act of Martha, the second act of Stradella, and the second act of Lucrezia Borgia will be given.

At thb Argh Lotta will appear this evening in tbe drama of The Little Detective. A matinee performance of the same piece to morrow.

A family matinee to-morrow. A rur.OacK in Wall Street. It U a vulgar error to suppose that the halitufsot Wall street con verse about nothing bnt stocks and gold. Some times thoy talk about their health, and they all seem to have one trouble biliousness. The wear and tear of speculation invariably tell npon the liver. "How do you think I'm looking?" said a well known "Bull" to a friend In the Long Room, a few days after the late smash-up in gold. "Do I loak panic-struck ?" "No, by Jove !" was the leply ; "you look In trim to light for a man's life. Never saw you looking better." "Let me tell you a secret, my boy," returned the great operator: "I drink no wine, no brandy, no bar-room stimulant of any kind ; but I just keep my stamina up with an occasional dose of Plantation Bitters ; and if you'll do me the favor to try it for that bile on the stomach you're always complaining of, I'll furnish the margin for your next spec. If it doesn't cure yon." Tbe gentleman referred to (the initial of whose Christian name Is not very far from the end of the alphabet) has unbounded confidence In the restora tive; and his bright eje, firm nerves, and wonderful powers of endurance prove that It Is well founded.
