A full house greeted MIm Amy Stone and the first clan New York dramatic company associated with her, on their Brat appearance at Sobel's Opera Home, last evening, In the entertaining drama ol "Fancboo the Cricket." At la' Stone proved henelf to be eminently worthy or and entitled to the reputation which she bat of beiag a charming, versatile) and tl. entcd actreai In every respect. Urr rendi tion ot the character of Fancbon, wai luliv ecjual to and in many respects superior to Maggie Mltcbell'i imperaonation of the tame ebaraeter; Added to a dashing and vlvaci out appearance 00 the stsge, and an elegant wardrobe, Mlai Amy ii poaaeaaed of rare elocutionary powers and a highly cultivated voice, which leoda an additional charm to her aotlng, and cauaes it to appear more natural, unaffected and lire-like. Of our old friend, Meaaie E. V. Maraton and H. F. Stone, we can only say that they fully uaialned their old time reputation aa being artiatei of the highest order, and eminentry entitled to the poeition tbey have won and now bold on the American boards. Not having been present we cannot do justice to the stibjeot as we could wish, hut from out side appearances the entertainment appear ed to givt universal satisfaction. This evening will be produced the beau tiful drama entitled "The Pearl of Savov: or, Mother's Prayer," Miss Stone appearing In her great character et "Marin, the Sa voyard Girl," and the entire company in the caste.

On Friday even ing next, Uncle Billy Grey, or Tituaville, will deliver his celebrated lecture entitled "Gleanings from the Wayside of Life," at Plumer. Mr. Giey's reputation as a lectur er of real merit is well known throughout tbe oil region and we predict for him a full Douse. Having beard the lecture, wo can safely pronounce it a good thing, and one that touches all the tender chords In a man's composition, and awakens many memo ries that have slumbered for yeurs perhaps. 1 he lecture will prove a rich treat for the good peopie of Plumer.

A strange story, worthy of novellillc treatment at tie bands of a Marryatl, comes from Newfoundland. In Chance Nook a se cluded nook in thesomewhat secluded island dwell a I' ttlo company of fisherman, one ol whom, who rejoices in tbe nsmeof Barnacle BUI, bas long been an object of suspicion on account of bis unsociable and berniit-lifee life. His hut was situated remote from the others, upon a peak over-looking a danger ous reef celled Guilileuddy Breakers. These circumstances combined to fasten up on Barnacle Bill tbe suspicion that be had penchant for wrecking operations, and after the recent loss on the reef ol the scbooner Albion, none of the crew of which were sub sequently discovered, dead or alive, it was determined to search tbe nforenentiuned but. Accordingly, a detective having b-en procured, together with tbe requisite legal papers, a large deputation made an early call upon Barnacle Bill, and found tbat worthy iu bed In as much as he declined to get np and open the door tor bis surprise parly,, tbey let themselves into the bouse, when-appalllng sight met their ga?.e. Fin gers, wrists and ears, cut and torn out from the bodies of women, evidently to procure tbe rings and other jewelry, were strewn around. Two boiled ailk dresses were fold, ed beside tbe bodies. In ail there were nine corpses, only one of which was identified Tbe inkuman.wrecker, after being taken in to custody, confessed that be took the bod ies from tbe wreck of tbe Albion, and con veyed tbem on a fish barrow to bis cl if! b- fore dawn.
