MiiiiT. An appreciative'' audience assem

being tho first appearance of Miss Fanny
Herring in tbiB place. 'Leah, Tbo Forsa

manner not often excelled, and tho audience
told their satisfaction in rounds of applause.
We have never seon a more perfect represen
tation oi the difficult character of "Leah,"
and all are free to admit that Miss Herring
lias few superiors as an actress. We cm
congratulate our theatre gulug people that
iu tbo company now perforforuiing here, we
have one of unusual merit, and wordy tbe
patronage of tbo public. Tbe entice caste
U worthy of special .mention. To-night

t'lanklln Kxpedltton Melancholy
Heport of the I'nrty.
Mr. Hall's detailed report of his Arctic
expedition is published. It appears that
there is no lunger even a shadow of hope
that any oue survives out of Franklin's
company. It is ascertained that none of
thorn reached cveu as far as Montreal Isl
and, and their bodies lio '.scattered along
the coast of King William's Laud, some in
isolated gruves, and others in tbo camping
places, wheru they fell and died iu compa
nies. Tbe melancholy history has lie
crowning horror in tho knowledgo that they
died ot slurvation through tho biso behav
ior of the Esquimaux, und that in learning
their fute Captain Hall wun reduced to the
awful necessity of taking the liln of ono of
his own mutinous inn 11. Mr. ilali states
that the same your that the tatuo year that
tho Ktebus and Teiror were abandoned, una
of them consummated tbo great northwest
passage, having five men aboard The
evidence ol the exact number is circumstan
cial. Everything about this northwest pas
sage Bbip ol Sir;John Franklin's expediti on
was in complete order. Four boats wore
banging up at tbe ship's side, and ono was
on the quarter-deck; tho vessel was in its
winter housing of sail or tout cloth. Thr9
vessel was found by tho natives near Oreil
ly Island; latitude CS deg. 30 in. ; longitude
911 deg. 8 m. west, cariy iu tbe spring cf
1819, it being frozen in, in tho midst ol a
smooth and unbroken Hoe of ice of only onu
winter's formation.
FIrther Failures Threatening. The
Times says "the crash in gold stocks yester
day afternoon has, it is said, affected many
bouses which escapod tbe crush in gold Inst
week. Hon?, b which suffered by tho tall in
tbe gold market and were brought utmost to
tbe verge ol ruin, could not be expected to
withstand tbo double shock, and It is ex
pested that to-day will reveal tho fact that
a very large number of firms have gone
under. If tbe Gold Exchange Bank should
fall to meet its obligations, or if a run should
be made on that Institution it is expected
that the ras!i in Wall street will be entire
ly overwhelming, That the bank is in a
oritical condition is felt certain; that it has
lost the confidence of tbo brokers is a fact,
and with this support withdrawn rroni it,
the end of that iLBtiluti' n must suou fol
low." Gakoi.ino On, W0 copy the following
well merited notico frn.ii the Saginaw (Mich.)
Courier: No Patent Medicine has succeeded
io tbiB country unless It und real merit, and
not tbeo unlets business sagacity was used
in bringing it before tho public. The suc
cess of Morcbout's Gargling Oil is sufficient
evidonco that it has both or these elements
behind it. It has undoubted virlnolor the
proposes for which it is recommended, and
In its business manager, John Hodo. esq..
it has a directing genius who knows just
how to make use of a good thing.
Tbo men who recently robbed Weils, ;
Fargo & Co.'s Express, en route from Helena
to Uorione, about seventy miles uorth ol tbe
lattor place, have alt been caught. There
were two robberies near together an! in
tie sail e locality, tho first of $25,1)00 hU(l
tbo second of $27,000. Tbo latter wag ac
complished by Frank E. Long and John P.
Stone, the formor of Mormon extraction aud
an old driver on tbo EoBton line, tbe latter
from tbo sunny South, assisted by tliroo or

A Joke on Admiral Porter. IdmJnl
Porter was riding in a street car In Washing,
ton the other day, in which were two or
three drunken national sailors. They be-
carao so obstreperoiiB that the Admiral ex
postulated with them, and finally, telling
them who be was, he asked ono of them
what ship ho belonged to. With a twinkle
of the eye and a swugsering air, tho sailor
hiccoughed out, "Admiral, you have
changed the names of tbe ships so oflcn tlia'
I really don't know what ship we do belong
to."
Notwithstanding tbe introduction of petro
leum the prlco of whale oil continues very
high. It has nearly doubled in fifteen years,
and had not the Pennsylvania oil wells been
discovered, whale oil would now be worth
three dollars per gallon. The discovery ef
petroleum has been to oil consumers just
what tbe discovery of coal was to the burner
of wcod. While New York was a city o;
250,000 inhabtiants, it still used wood,
which bad become very scarce 11 ml dear.
Just at tho time of great demand coal was
brought truj the Lackawanna mines, und
the wood ti ido gradually tiled out. In this
way it seems that a divine Providence
watches over the wants of mankind.

A Goose Race. Tho Chicago Evening
Post of Friday s;iys: The "goosisls," Rob
ert Hart, Georgo Morri and .Tames Mane,
decided the championship of their respec
tive steeds in the race on tho Lake Hasiu
yesterday aftornoon, in tho preseuce of
about 6,000 people. Tho contest was one
of tho most novel and laughable ever wit
nessed. Tho distance was throe hundred
yardsfrom, the foot ol Adams street to the
pier south. Tho "teams" consisted of six
geeso each. Tho birds were harnessed, and
attached to a board shaped like a banjo, on
which a wasbtub was set. A paddlo aud a
long whip wersi allowed each driver.
Shortly after three o'clock a sond-otl was ef
fected, Eorris lint, Maas second, aud. Hart
outside. Mua' oll'-wheuler turned over and
faced bis driver, and was pulled along in
thut position. Hart gut ahead ol bis com
petitors at tbo start, but Morris toon over,
hauled him. . The latter's loam undo for
the shore, and be bad to resort to much
paddling to koep them straight. Morris
finally reached the goal lour feet ahead of
Hart, Ma;is bcinj lolt considerably behind.
The distance was in ado iu sovon minutes
aud thirty seconds. Tbe purse of $200 was
awarded to Morris. The sport was Intensely
laughable, aud many who witnessed it shook
their sides to aching.
AIMumphis paper shows, or attempts to
show, that a cotton factory iu that city will
clear $32.76 more on every bale of cotton
woven into cloth than cau bo realized by
tbe mills ot Lowell, Massachutstls: aud that
$3,000 bales at Memphis would produce a
profit of $248,000 In ono year against the
$20,000 million of tbe mills of Lowell, buiit
at nearly tho same cost. Tbe New England
manufacturer pays $16 to got a bale to his
mill, and loses entirely the profit of tho oil
from tbo cotton seed, $110 per bale, all of
which, with tbo advantage uf labor at lowei
rates, enters into the gains ol tbe home
manufacturer. ,

A domestic romance comes from New

were married, bad one eon, lived (ngctln r
ten years, and then, after losing ail ihrir
property, procured a divorce. Tho woman
married again, nnd got n fortune;, the man
didn't, and remained poar. And now that
the woman has become a rich widow, site
has re-mnrried her first husband, and they
nre going to Boston for a revised hoaov
noon. A man named Stephen Tupper, in Indi
unupolis, attempted to drink from a creek,
but was so drunk that be was unable to
ruise his face afterward:', and was drowned
in tlircc iucbos of waier.
