who has sat in the House of Peers since
the days ot Lord Byron. Other men
famous in literature have been raised
to the same rank, or one still higher;
but, as m the cases of Bacon, Bulwer
Macaulay and Disraeli, they have gen
erally been conspicuous asstaesmen as
well as authors.
Mrs. Alleu, a Providence medium, is
the present wouder aiid delight of the
spiritulaists. Out of her cabinet issue
as many as twenty different materializ
ed spirits in an evening. They walk
among the mortals, talk like ordinary
risitors, aud at times disclose them
selves as spirits only partially embody
ied. But no skeptics are admitted to
these seance3. and the accounts are
therefore not the work of professional
reporters.

Tho Kiffht of It.
We made a big mistake yesterday
regarding Rev. Colin Shaw, of Bladen
county, which wo hasten to correct
We understood our informant to say
that he had just returned from Florida
and was on his way home,- when, in
fact, he had just left his home and was
on his way to Florida., Mr. Shaw was
accompanied by his wife and goes to
visit a married daughter who ieside3 in
Florida and will be absent about six
months.
Personal.
Mr. Richard A. Mearea, formerly of
this city, arrived here oh last Wednes
day with his bride, a beautiful and ac
complished young lady, on a visit to
hi3 mother, Mrs. Gaston Meares, with
whom he will remain, during the Christ
mas holidays. Mr. Meares was mar
ried in Waynes ville, this State, on the
21st ult., by the Rev. Dr. Buel, to Hiss
Louise Palmer, of Ridgeway, S.-C. On
the completion of their visit here Mr.
Meares and his wife will go to Ridge
way. where they will hereafter reside.
At about 9 o'clock this morning a
small frame building on the Southwest
corner of Fourth and Ann streets was
discovered to bo oh fire, and before the
engines could be brought to bear upon
tho flames it was cousumed. A portion
of the building was occupied by an old
colored man, whose name we failed to
lean. He had a narrow escape with
his life. The other part of the building
had been used as an ice house, but was
then unoccupied. The damage would
not amount to more than S50 or $75
There was no insurance.
Richard III.
Thomas W. Keene. the tragedian,
will appear at the Opera House in this
city on Tuesday night, the 18th inst.
He will present the above naased
Shakespeiian tradgedy, in which he
has won distinction as an actor. The
Cincinnati Saturday Night, in speaking
of Mr. Keene says:
In Shakesperian drama, particnlarly
in Richard III, he is equally happy,
and there is no doubt whatever that we
have in Mr. Keene an actor capable ot
continuing the glories ot the .stage. Ai
t though this is his first season in the
great Shakesperian roles , he already
taKes rank with the great actors of to-
1 day, and it is merely a cold aud timid
criticism egotistically airaia oi ben
committal, which would for an instant
refuse to accord him the place he has
so justly won.

Mr. C. B. Bishop, tfie Comediau, wil
appear at the Opera House on the night
ot tho 20th iust.. iu -Strictly Busiuess."
Of this play and the actor the Norfolk
Virginian speaks aa follows:
The Academy of Music was filled last
evening with a large and enthusiastic
audience which was gathered to witness
C. B. Bishop in his matchless imperv
sonation in the new play of
"Strictly Business," by A. C. Gunter.
We have never seen him so replete with
humor as he was in the performance
of last evening, and so thorough was
he in his role of P. P. Philkins that
every appearance of Philkins was greet
ed with rapturous applause. The
troupe is a well selected one, and Mr.
Bishop is to be congratulated upon being
so well supported upon his appearance
on our boards. After the performance
was over the audience greeted Mr.
Bishop with deafening applause which
was heard for the distance of over a
square from the Academy of Music
