We invite attention to the an nomartnent in our advertising cOlumnp,_ Lssraa a ''Mesa STI:AIiT...—If any evidence were needed to prove the appreciation of oar people forst hc puestancl highest forms of draratttleert. it was furnisheddast evening. by the audience which filled the Academy, to witness Mrs. Larder's representation 'of Mary, Queen of Scots. Not only was the assemblage large, but it was in deep and earnest sympathy with the spirit of the play. The performsnee was rather loo". ole bat there was a want of resilessuess among the audience, and a liberal bestowal of applause._ which showed a thorough appreciation of the excellence of theireprasentabon and a keen perception of the merit of certain of the more striking passages. The crowded condition of our Columns to day renders an elaborate criticism entirely impossible ' But while deferring this pleasant duty to another time, simple justice to Mrs. Lander demaeds that her first appearance in this character should receive something more than a passing notice. The drama itself Is excel h et. It is an adaptation from Mrs. Kem- , tiles stile) rabic translation of Schiller's grand poem, and It bright with must eloquent and beautitul evidence of the author's genius. Necessarily, It is very much curtailed from the original, and Borne of the most dramatic passages are omitte'd; but the arrangement, upon the whole, is an excellent one. Mrs. Lander's personation of "Mary" descries the warmest praise that can be bestowed upon it. It is not cxtrava"ant to say, that her conception is fully as great as that of Mister'. throughout, and,in some In stances. Mrs. Lander, laboring us she does under tire diiadvantage of a less lmposing presence, and with a voice, though as sweet and flexible. yet less sonorous, even surpasses the ureat Italian. FaeCptillg Ristorfa Maris A9llM,lettf, wo have had, in late years, no such bit di true dramati 7, art noon the Philadelphia stage. Mrs. Landers "Elizabeth" entitles her to a high place as a histrionic artist, but her"lSfary Stuart" is so fir sluice lot to it, that it is a matter of regret that she had not chosen the latter: in which to. Make her (Ober in the historical drama. It seemed last evening, in looking at her, that In the fitness of things she was destined to be the true interpreter of the touching and pathetic character. which Schiller has given to ttie beautiful Queen of Scotland. Mrs.d.ander; by the torce of her genius, and genius in the truest sense she possesses, has fairly won her way to the bead of her professionend she is entitled to have the distinction awarded her that upon the English stage, as far settle members of her own sex are con cerned, she Is without a peer. It is unnecessary, and, indeed, impossible, to do anything to-day but merely eulogize this eplendid performance in a general way. This journal is not disposed to do more than simple justice to any artist who comes before the public to fearlessly condemn whereit is required, to warmly praise where it is deserved; and in pursuance of this policy, we have given to Mrs. Lander her due,and we give to our readers the advice, that they do not fail to witness this performance when it is given again.

If you were not tired of him, I would instance the happy man whom the philosopher wanted to change shirts with, and who • had no shirt. A better instance is Cervantes. Arriving upon Parnassus, and finding all the thrones oc cupied: "Never mind, man," said Apollo to the wit. "it is better to deserve a place than to ob tain one; double your cloak and sit upon it." "You don't see, lord Apollo," said the gay sati rist, "that'l have' no clotili." Modern newspaper men are exceptions. Their merit is so transcendant! You never meet one (,1' them (in print) who does not dine nightly at V6four's, or L,:B Troia fi4re , ,?, except when espe cially engaged at an Embassy. Galignani's man, the feathery critic of operas and first represen tations, can get a very fair midnight supper at the Cafe Anglais; and the curled lion of the graph, that tweet fast min, has been seen, at his modest moments, chez Voisin, whose St. .Julien, at seven francs the bottle, is very aupportable. *hen I mat these correspondent gentlemen, whose (professionally and in printer's ink) are so nearly royal ; when I see their fingers spottei with ink, and their brows clouded with appregnsion lest their best speculations and prophecies may have been devastated by some later telegram in the news column,l sometimes wonder at the bravery with which they can carry it off in their histrionic hour, and at the appetite' , with which men who rthrelys dine with Baron Brisse or Doctor Yeron, can face me over a plate of bouilli and mustard. in stale linen badly out of drawing at the edges, when the letter is over. I hope they regard me with more indulgtnee; I am sure they compre hend that, for the honor, of the craft, I frequent the Edeetest circles: then on Roper, and that my reeking beef is an eceentrielty—a Petit Trianon-- a Caliph dining with Abon Hassan. Thackeray, in his day, was more Bohemian " Come along." he would cry, to an artist who loves to tell inc stout him, "dome along and have something. They've invented a new dish which I don't think you've tasted—lobster salad! Let us try it,and it's my treat. I'm poor to-day, but I can make ten or fifteen pounds to-morrow by.an article. Allons.'—dum virinum vicamet.q."' And he would lead the way, in his hearty, bust ing manner, into a very modest cabaret indeed. But that was just after the Irish Sketch Book— _in 18-14. He had not _yet created the genus .Snob. It was to 'no Maison Dorde,no illimitable series of cabinets. all made of mirrors and gold and clicking like a factory with a thousand clocks, that the valiant Greatheart's memories reverted to when he sat down and thought out the "Bonilla - balm." You - retail the ballad—one of the most manly, tender, genuine poems of society' that ever was written, perfumed all through with pensive cheerfulness and the homely, humorous, 'not unsavory aroma of long-digested feasts. What poem can you point to better of its kind— more fillolirith genuine but restrained emotion, more aptly bitting the half-sung, halt-desolate shade of feeling with which one sits down to a good but 'solitary dinner and recalls gayer feasts eaten long since with those who are changed or dead! It is - not carried too far—earth is not seen as a desert one is bound to traverse, seeking to rind the old familiar faces; but the mood grows just so poignant that the epicure becomes reck less of the petty distinctions between Chablis and Mediae— " Welcome the wine, whateer the seal is!' and drops one warm but unobtrusive tear into the " lonely glass " he drains to " the dear old times." ,Whet I first came to Paris I assure you I spent some time in trying to discover Terrci's tavern, and the host with the droll grimace, and the ikuillabaie, or hotchpotch of all kinds of fishes, which I would have supped piously to the last drop of juice and last button of fat, albeit but a feeble lover of that "legless, unloving, infa mously chaste" thing, the fish. One of thy earliest and easiest explorations was in the street of Paris famous, for which no rhyme our language yields; and when I had fold's& the great blue legend at a corner, Rue Neuve des Petits Champs, I scrutinized all the brassy blazons of the restaurateurs for the legendary name of Terr 6. But, "Monsieur is dead this many a day ;" and all I found was Antony, who had heard of him. The above, you perceive, is but my rounda bout introduction and way of bringing up to Antony, the old garcon. He shall be my hero, although hastily put off with a paragraph or two. Come up, Antony, and stand for your por trait, Change my plate—the foie de veau was not quite to my liking—and order a maccheroni gratin, which you serve better than the Falcone at Rome. Ah, you sly,dog, you are hiding my foie, which is to your - bitte, if not to mine, in your own little forecastle hole. It will go to your own supper. Now tell me, how long have you been garcon de traitteur? 4 He answered like the grave-digger to Hamlet: "hinn o snd boy, thirty years." j.nd how long in this pretty restaurant on the Neuve des Petits Champs? "Near thirteen, Monsieur. I was here with the ancient patron. I wore his aprons five years." "Give me an account of your day, good friend." "Well, Monsieur, "present myself at eight, and polish the windows and the cutlery, and run into the'kitchen to instruct the young devils of cooks. They think of nothing but the whiteness of their caps and the confectioner's girls opposite. Some times I shake a saucepan myself. We breakfast at noon, and dine the moment you Monsieurs are all gone. Between those two points I run about and feed my menagerie (household) like the offi cers who aliment the savage beasts at the Garden of Planta." When I have swallowed title flattering analogy I add: And then? "Why, then, Monsieur, at ten o'clock, begins my own slight fete. lam fond of cards. I adore a billiard cue ae an old icrisloner at the In vendee worships a musket." 80, the moment you ship Mr the white apron, sou become a young fellow about town ? " "Until midnight, M'sieu. I came home at one last night, tearing my hair. I had lost ten francs at the egaminet—nearly half-a-Week's wages. The sans you beneficently drop into the silver vase go to me and Pierre, and we live upon them— an existence of copper; but I scarcely ever tone fifty francs in lifte. days.

The'diving bell be longing to the dredging apparatus, a balk of about nine tons, was lifted from the place known as hulks' or poritoon,and carried over and thrown into one of the spar pits of Mr. Hughes, a dis tance of at least a quarter of a mile. A piece of scantling some twenty-five feet long pierced the roof of a wooden house in Prindsesse street, passing through the back of a rocking chair and under a cottage piano, just near enough not to touch the keys above and the pedal below, then went through the floor and rested on the counter of. a grocer's shop underneath; so that the one end projected out at the roof. while the other end rested on the counter, at the same time hold ing the rocking - -chair and piano immovable.

The oscillation was from east to west, and the effect such as to ring all the church bells and the town clock, just as if there were general alarm sounded by 'the authori ties. Shortly after the shoats the tide rose in the river, and a current set in, up stream, at the rate of about ten miles an hour. Up to dark the river overflowed six different times, rising as high as one yard over the mole. WoknoW of some sugar house chimneys, wallshnd a few new houses having been thrown down. Alongside of one.of these houses there sprung up two foun tains or water, and this strengthqw the ,bellef that the quake passed along in that limnifiiate neighborhood. _ During the night there were five other shocks, and at half past seven this morning there was another very violent one. Fortunately, thus far I bare heard of no injury-to persons resulting frofii,the shocks. Railroad Accident— A Woman and - Child Killed. [From the Harrisburg Patriot.

Warmer, a young man about 28 years of age, a messenger in the employ of the Merchants' Union Express Company, was yester day arrested at the Bates House and committed to jail upon the charge of committing a heavy robliery while acting m his capacity of money messenger for the company. The particulars of his crime, as wo have learned them are as follows—ln October last a package of money, amounting to $6,173, was being trans mitted In the care of the Merchants' Union Ex press Company from the Bank of Commerce, Now York, to the First National Bank of Mis souri, at St. Louis. At this place the psekage came into the hands of Mr. Warrener. The money was done up as banks usually do up money—in $5OO bundles, enveloped with a small band. These were then placed in a sack, tied together with a cord, and overthe knot the seal was placed, so that it would be impossible to untie it without destroying the still Mr. War rener says that about the time he had crossed the Indiana line the temptation came over him to steal the money, and be very Ingeniously loosened the seal with the point of his penknife, untied the cord around the sack, removed the money, and then with the aid of a light, replaced the seal as it was at first. Upon the delivery of the money at 81. Louis the deficit was discovered, and when Mr. Warrener returned he reported It to the office here. A shrewd Chicago detective was employed who, after learning the entire history of the matter, fastened , bis suspicions upon the messen ger, NrhlCh were confirmed by the fact that to a friend he had loaned a $llO bill, identified as be ing a part of the abstracted money. This bill is among the amount recovered. Mr. Warrener was watched, and finally on Saturday night last the matter was broached to him by Superintendent R. B. McPher son, at the Bates House, who told hint that the proof was too overwhelming against him, and desired him to make a free confession and resti tution so far as in his power. Warrener con fessed his crime andridetailed the dreurastauces attending it, gild also gave Mr. McPherson an order on a bank at Vincennes for $5,000, which, with the $lOO heretofore recovered, leaves a loss of about $l,OOO. Warrener was not giVeu Uti 'Understand that he would be arrested, in, the hope that, he would restore more of the money or confers the name of a suspected , accomplice.

Louts. He died rather hardly, owing to the noose supping after be bad dropped, but In forty minutes life was ex tinet.Previous to the exectition,and before leaving his cell,Christnan began to change countenance and grow pa le.losing partly the stolid indiffCrence manifested since his arrest. He said' he did not know what made him kill Mr. Ross; that they had a little fuss that evening. and he felt mad;' that after killing Mr. Ross be wont out Into , the yard and walked around there a little while, and then went back and killed the little, boy. He did not know what made him kill the boy. ,When asked if because he feared the boy would inform on him he said he expected that was the reason. He `said he did not look for any money; that the confused state of the furniture and other articles in the room was Just the same as it was in the' evening; that he took the cloth ing because he wanted some clothes to wear,. and the horses and wagon because Mr. Ross owed him NO, and he thought the team would about pay him. He was, not afraid of lbeing, caught, and did not drive fast. The place where he was arrested is only twelve miles from the: city. When surketlwhy he did not go farther so the officers would not catch him, he said , he thought that was far enough. When asked if ' he expected to get off without being hung, he said the did-not know. The jailor stated that upon entering the cell he has frequently found the prisoner prostrated upon the bed, with his face down. In an attitude of extreme dejection, and the jailor seemed to think that there was a sort of pride about him which led hint to conceal his emotions before strangers by assuming the -meaningless smile and Inexpressive manner before spoken of. On reaching the scaffold, supported by a priest, Chrisman was silent and hardly spoke a word. Ile was very pale, and during the reading of the death warrant trembled slightly. His confessor spoke to him constantly, and asked him if he had anything to eay. He replied In the negative, and two minutes after the Viarshal wive the sig nal, and the body of Obri' matt: was suspended by the e eck. The deed for which he WAR executed was one of the most diabolical murders recorded, and the execution was richly deserved. Starvation in tinctnnati-An Affect.. ing Cabe. (From the Cincinna Times.] Yesterday , nioruine about two o'clock the po lice on the Mt. Auburn road met and arrested two persons, male and female, who were in pos session of a lot of articles which they believed had been stolen. It turned out that they had c.ntertd the cellar of Mr. Rickert, In that vicinity, aid bad taken some twenty-five pounds of sugar, several cans of fruit, a turkey and other eata bles. They were confined in the station-house, and this morning were before the Police Court on a charge of larceny. The female is about twenty_ years of age, small of stature, neatly dressed, and spite modest and prepossessing in her appearance. She had in her arms an infant some three or four months old. The brother seems to have seen hard times,- being gaunt in features and shabbily clad. Upon being' asked if she pleaded guilty to stealing the edictal', she answered: "Yes, guilty of stealing them know ing I was committing a crime." She had first proposed it to her brother. They had a blind tether: their mother was sick in bed, and they -were starving. Upon being questioned why they had specially fixed upon Mr. Rickert's premises, she replied that from the appearance of the Louse she "thought they could spare" somethingß for them to eat and not feel it." lien - husband bad left her some four months since, and though he was at work somewhere over the river, she bad ItiCeiVed no aid from him. The brother said" he -bad been employed but one day -in three - melee, and had walked the streets day after day to procure labor. The &Seer who had visited the house where they resided said he found her story true, and that they were In the most deati- ' tote circumstances.- It was, indeed, a pitiful case the father blind, the mother sick, a young baby at the breast, no work. no food, and the only prospect before them that of starvation, in this Christian community. .It is scarcely to be won den d at that they entered upon a career of crime to pn,cure the bare means of subsistence. Not one who listened id her sad Story bat would, e believe, have done as she did, to sustain her pm - my-stricken Household. The details, as she timidly related them to the court, caused the tears to start in many an eye too long accus tomed to witness scenes on the dark side of life. Thu Judge assessed a fine of s:ts each, which we are led to believe will be remitted, and they will be allowed to start anew in life. We only hope that it may be wider more fortunate circum stances.
