The Rose and Harry Watkins troupe presented a play on the boards of the Charlotte Opera House last evening, for the first time. Though they had never befare played here, their repu tation had! preceded them, and it was an intelligent audience, which assem bled, to see and hear " Trodden Down, or, und$r two Flags.'.' -i Of the two bright particular stars, Mr Watkins is an admirable comedian of original stamp, blending his come dy with pathos and' a ' terrible energy seldom found united on the stage, though seldom found apart in nature. It is not too much to say that in the new drama he plays the part of the Shingawn as well as it can be played and that he fills the ' three acts with life and Vigor. - Rose Watkins too is a fine actress, her action pd reading ex cellent and she' snses ' at critical mo ments to true tragic power. When we say that she supported Watkins weUiehAvsgiveiiiher-the highest praise in.our powerfdris acting was soTfuil.ofJifeand passion, "so1 terrible in it? ,wrath, so .ni ajeXtio in "ilr develr oprSenlLofaternaij an dinryetiresiB weld have ben crush ed infigQicncel Watkina rehv dition of bis several parto.'waa admi- rablephet? character represented by !Se,WaiinJararely excelled, audi the entire troupe is composedjjpf , first cla&'a'rtors,,' Those who fallto visit the OpraiHouae this week wilt, miss a'trctff- " ' ; "f; ' Toiughi.the troupe appears in the ladies'- favorite play, entitledt; -"Kathleen Mavourneeriv' We'.)?8peak for them a crowded house, and assure all who may attend thut they will be de-' lighted i,.Thia trotrpeperformed- inj Raleigh during Fair; weeksthere. Of the ren dition: of 'Kathleen Mavourneen the Sentinat said v f ' Rose Watkins acting in Kathleen Mavoureen is so truthfully artistic and natural that it is simply impossi ble for one to hear her without being profoundly impressed with the fact that they are in the presence of one of ine great aeiineators oi cnaracier oi which the stage furnishes but few ex am pies. Her singing is as sweet as the nightingale, her elocution perfect and all of her make up is that of a great actress. Mr. Watkins is an ar tist and as the leading, accompanying character to his talented lady none could surpass Ljttle Amy Lee should not be forgotten as "Meg the Fortune Teller." Her singing 'for a child; is wonderful and the hearts of ah audience-ween to her.

A Woman Accidentally Shot The Wound a Dangerous One. a Yesterday evening a woman whose name is given to us as Laura Jackson, was shot, at the "Exchange," a house of ill repute in this city, by a pistol in the hands of a man whose name, if it is known, the women in the establishment refuse to divulge. The story is this : The man was sitting in the parlor, in conversation with several other men and women,' wheii h'e 'took 'fxbnyjbis pocket a Derringer pistol, which was handled by several of the crowd. The woman who was subsequently sbot.-'had it in her, hands, and as she handed it to the man he pointed it at her, seemingly in a playful manner She told him to turn it away, as it might go off, and just then the weapon was discharg ed. ;' .'. .1 ' . The ball struck'her in the right side of her waist, and, ranging downward, lodged in her abdomen. . She fell over, and was carried to her; room, when a surgeon was sent . for. Pf...R, H. Gibbon probed the wound,rbut tha ball had penetrated 'such a distance that it could not be extracted. The wound is a very dangerous one, though the woman may recover. At 10 o'clock last night she was resting easily, under the in fluence of opiates. She arrived in Charlotte last Sunday morn ing, and hails from Raleigh. She states that the shooting was purely' accidental, and this is the statement also of all the witnesses. Not a Good Civil Righter. Dentists use in the mouths of some of their subjects, corks to keep them from clos ing their mouths while a tooth is being pulled. A Republican of an adjoining county was in a dental office in this city a short time ago to have a tooth pulled, and as the dentist proceeded to place the cork be tween his teeth, the Republican said : "Stop; is that the cork you used in that nigger's mouth a minute-ago ?" The den tlsfr told him yes, neverrdreiming that, be ing a Radical, ' he wouid object for an in sfant. "Well, then, get another one ; I'm a Republican, but I can't stand that." . How funny some people are. That fellow don't hesitate to tell a darkey that he is as good as a white man, but whenever it comes to sleeping or eating with him, and all that sort of thing, he forthwith raises some ob jection, Oh, consisteosy 1 thou art a jewel ! Shot Himself in the Hand. An accident occurred about two and a half miles from this city, on Saturday evening last, whereby Mr. George Rigler, a citizen of Charlotte, lost his right hand. He was out hunting, with a double-barreled shot gun, one of which had refused to go off. It was capped, but several attempts had failed to explode the charge. He had placed the breach of the gun on the ground, and was ramming a charge in the other barrel, when, from some unaccountable cause, the other barrel' was discharged. The ram -rod w s bro ken, and the whole, charge , oi shot went through Mr. Rigler's right hand, mangling it terribly. . Some of the shot struck the fin gers of his hand also, but the wounds to this member are not serious.' So badly was the right-hand wounded, that amputation was found necessary, and the hand was severed from the arm at the wrist, by Drs. Gibbon and Alexander. Mr Rigler suffers but little pain now, and is do ing well. Charged with Stealing Money. One Edward Walls, a white groom at tached to the stables of Mr. John Rutledge, the noted horseman, was, before His Honor the Mayor yesterday, charged with stealing $150 from Mr. R. Thj robbery was perpe trated on the Fair Grounds Sunday night. When Mr. Rutledge awoke yesterday morn ing the money and Walls were both missing Search for the latter being instituted, he was found drunk in one of the bar. rooms of the city. He was taken to the Mayor's office and his person searched, but no mon ey was iouna. ine prooi, nowever, was sufficient strong toi warrant the Mayor in committing the man to iail, and he did so, m aenuut or nan. Pickpockets and Sharpers. Such a gang qftheiyes asis'how here, was never known in Charlotte since it was in corporated. The city is alive with pick pockets, gamblers, sharpers and theives , of oyery description. Every form of swindling, and fraud will be'resulted to this week, and we cannot too strongly urge upon honest people to keep out of the nets of the spoilers. Pickpockets arefarmingYylbundant, and people bad better keep their hands on. their pocket-books. House-keepers would do well fe secme their houses when they are absent, and also to close their front doors after dark; If unusual care is not exercised, many a dollar will go this week from the pockets of honest and unsuspecting people, to enrich these rascals, who make their living by. svs tematized robben.e , i The Marshals for the Fair.

To-day will begin the first annual exhi bition of the long-talked of New Fair of the Carolina?. And as this day, dawns we have better hopes for the exhibition tbaa. we have ever had before, notwithstanding we have from the first cherished an abiding faith that the Fair would prove a success. Our renewed hopes are" excited by the large rowd which is ' alreaoy in the city. Even on Sunday vone might have judged from appearances on the streets andat the hotels that a Fair' was in progress, and every train which has arrived in the . city sincejf has brought new recruits. We feel safe in say ing that the largest crowd which has ever been known at a Fair in Charlotte, will be assembled here by to-morrow and next day. .:'. : - ' ' ; , .; The number of entries yesterday surprised every one The , Secretary and several clerks were kept busy all the day entering articles, and notice has been given of many otoers to oe entereu to-aay. indeed, a large proportion 6f the articles from the city to oe put on exhibition, have been held back until to-da.
