In the House, on Thursday, a bill Was
introduced to stock a number, of water
course in the State, 1 among them tLo
Cape Fear river, with fish. The bil
was referred to the Committee on Fish
Interests.
Col. Toon introduced a bill to incar

The fence bill as relating to this coun

The New York sH$rald has this to say
of the performance in' that city of the
Piratss of Penzance, the comic opera
which is to be performed here next Wed
nesday evening: V;

iDfttjqamy oi tna wotk j m. a macauov
ter standard thaa .was the nautical opera
we had front these geatlemeo. - ltisclev
er-and most amusing, and One caanot
help laughing load and long at. many of
the drolleries, ven if the mai3$theiae i of
he work is not new. The 'Daddlers in
the first act and the police ' chsrus in the
second, are brilliant hits, and it would
be worth sitting - the evemnsr out
to hear them alone. The,r dialogue
is always ,cnsp, - and the ? wit is
that which we have often recognized
and enjoyed as Gilbert's contributions to
'Punch dry, keen, odd, and always pro
vocative of honest laughter, , Ail : the
Gilbert elements are in the piece the
catching phrases which will spread over
the city and become polite islangUn their
constant application to everyday iife
tte seriousness wua wmca ine most ao-
surd things s re done and , said and the
general tops; rturviness which affects men
and things generally such as the pirates
holding a pistol at Frederic's head and
begging Frederic to have mercy on them.
There is a strong effort to burlesque the
mannerisms and peculiarities of grand
opera in some of the vocal numbers,
which is douc with fair success, and fun,
solid, serious fun, is infused into the
piece from end to end."
The opera will be produced here by
Mr. Doyly Carte's celebrated company.
We understand that it is a very lull one,
there being more than forty members,
and we are satisfied that the piece will
be well produced here. '
