special order of the day in the Criminal
Court, were disposed of. The jojlgment

Junius Davis and F. II. Darby appeared

lar, M. Bellamy and Jno. D. Bellamy for
the defense. '
The defense holds the opinion that as
the Market i3 notx the property of the

While the chief aim of the conductors
of LippincoWs Magazine is to furnish
entertainment, the reader of the fresh
and lively sketches which .fill the chie'
space iu the March number will find
that he has gathered information, on
various topics, as serviceable as if it had
been acquired by a more laborious pro
cess. "Six Months in a Couatry-House
in Russia," by Alain Gore, gives an ex
perience such as very few- Americaa
travellers hare erer had the good for
tune to enjoy. The article on "The
Diamond Mines of South Africa," by E.
B. Biggar, brings down the history of
these remarkable discoveries to a recent
date. "Moose Hunting," by "Canuck,"
also illustrated, is a vivacious account of
the sport as practised in Nova Scotia.
"My China Boys," by Fanny Stevenson,
is not only very amusing, but presents
some types of Chinese character not fam
iliar to mere cssual observers. PhebeD.
Natt gives an account of The Paris
Artckools," Dr. Charles W. -Dulles
discusses the "Physical Uses of Pain,"
and Charles Burr Todd describes 'The
American' Newgate," an- underground
prison in Connecticut, once famous, but
now known only to the local antiquary
"Lilith," the shert and somewhat melo
dramatic serial which has attracted s
much attention, U concluded in ibis num
ber. There are two spirited short sto
ties "The Kid" and "A Law of Na
ture" and a capital sequel to the.Shaks
perian burlesque, "Place aux Dames."
Another short serial, with thcqoaioj
title of "Craquo o'-Doom,'' will be com
menced in the April number.

OPER1 HOUSE-
A very pleasant concert and society
entertainment was given at the Opera
House last night by the musical compa-i
ny now traveling under the proprietor
ship of Mr, Fred G. Berger.
The orchestral composition of the
troupe is very fine finer, no doubt,
than it ever was, even in the palmiest
days of the old Berger Company ; but
we missed the Berger sisters with their
extraordinary musical accomplishments.
Miss Etta Morgan, however, gave U3 an
exhibition of .the same order of talent.
Thisjady' - performance on the saxa
phone, a most curious-looking instru
ment, on the horn order, won the un
limited plaudits of the very large and
select audience. The duet with the old
Berger bells, as rendered by Mis3 Mor-
Morgan and Mr. Henry Berger was a
real musical treat, and the only relics of
the old Swiss Bell Ringers that we were
wont to enjoy sa much.
. Mr. Holbrs-ke's cornet solo was well re
ceived, and the performance of Mr.Fisb.er
on the zither was the sweetest possible
music Mr. Brand's xylophone elicited
much admiration as a cunningly executed
performance.
The recitations of Miss Marie Bowen
gave very great pleasure. Her voice is
exceedingly pleasant and her modula
tions very melodious. Her expression
we thought very skilful, though we felt
that her first recitation was rather rapid.
The VeBtriloquial exhibition of Mr.
Chas. W. Brewster showed remarkable
gifts in that line. We were far better
pleased, however, at his powers as a ven
triloquist, which are exceedingly great,
than his taste of selection in the conver
sations employed between himself and his
manikins.
We wish the troupe success wherever
it goes and record their entertainment
one of a pleasing character.
Gray Hairs are Honorable, but their
premature appearance is annoying. Par
ker's Hair Balsam is popular for cleanli
ness and promptly restoring youthful
color.
One oftne HoMen Kirk Lambs.
About three months ago John J.
Rhodes, "former marshal of Raleigh,"
"natural born detective," and "Lieuten
ant in Kirk's Lambs," was nrrested in
this city charged with perjury. To keep
him from going to jail a gentleman stood
his bond and the man of many callings
jumped his bond aid went to South Car
olina. Rhodes has been known to be
lurking about town for tbe past month
and officers were alter him, but by strat
agy or otherwise he managed to oat-wit
the officers natil last night, when lo! and
behold, their valiant Lieutenant of the
Holden-Kirk militia was caught dis
guised as a colored woman. This son at
Mars, who clamors for tho removal of
Holden's disabilities, was pnt in jail and
this morning had a hearing before Jus
tice Millis. The first charge, carrying a
concealed weapon, was disposed cf and
Rhodes was sent back to jail. This af
ternoon he will have a hearing in tho
'masquerade case." When captured
Rhodes had on a dress and bonuet and a
wig made " of moss. His face and
hands were blacked im the
most improved stylo known to
knights ''"of the burnt cork
On his person was found a pistol, which
he forgot to use when he tried to give
the officers leg bail. Rhodes is the same
man who represented himself some time
ago to be a pauper and almost starved,
and succeeded in getting a permit to the
Poor House. He stayed in the "Insti
tution" but two days, when he left, pay
ing the fcfare, meat, potatoes, hominy,
cabbages, etc., was not good enough for
him. We' should have said in the prop
er place that the prisoner did not appear
in court in his costume, for the jailor
took pity on the court and washed the
prisoner up.
