Last night some communistic individ uals who believed in a more equal dis tribution of property, became possess ed with the idea that the editoriaj fraternity were having too niauy of th good things of this world, and made a tour of inspection to aatisiy themselves on this point. They visited the store room ot Mr. John Mclaurin, editor of the Xorth Carolina Presbyterian, where they adopted the equalizing process by taking the flour, a ham aud several other articles. There was a jug in the room containing some wine, and they flade a division by drinking the wine and leaving him "the vessel, which was eminently fair and satisfactory on their part. These well-fed newspaper editors must reflect that they have no right to all the good things. What right has an editor to flour when corn meal is cheap, or to hams when shoulders would cost but about half as 'much, or to wirfc when corn whiskey is. abundant? Ldpplncott's Masraziuc.

The following is what the New York Journal says of "Le Voyage en Suisse The Windsor Theatre had a full house last night. . There are few per formances more calculated' to put the pnblic In good humor than the Han Ions' "Le Voyage En Suisse." It, is not diluted fun, but a nervous, restless, active piece of drollery, in which the acrobatic and pantomimic are curiously combined. It recalls the old feats jot the Ravels, and since them we have had nothing of the class that is so good as the performance of the Hanlons.
