One of the . handsomest compli ments that could be paid to an en tertainment was in the fact that Mr. Creston Clarke's appearance in Rich mond last Saturday was telegraph ed to the New York Herald in a iengthy and handsome critique. It is something that i6 not often done for actors who appear in the South. See the Othello Range at Jacobi's Hdw. Depot.

Vi cs4j " t it street Theatre. Here lie remained , , . i Baltimore for several seasons. After this he beeame a leading member of the old Arch street Theatre Stock Company, a position he held for two seasons. He then became joint lessee and manager with Wm. Wheat-ley, making occasional visits to Southern cities, which were always highly successful. When Mr. Clarke retired from the Arch Street Theatre he appeared in New York and made a hit almost unprecedented v calling forth the un stinted praise of the critics. Geo. W.Curtis, then editor of Harper's Weekly, said of him: "He is by far the finest artist that has been seen upon these boards since Rachel." He played starring engagements in New York, Baltimore, Philadel phia and Boston for several years with the greatest success. He went over to England some twenty odd years ago and was -soon recognized as the greatest comedian of the day. A simple announcement in the press was all that was necessary to pack the theatre in which he ap peared. His great success in Eng land is the obvious cause of his not being better known to the lovers of uure corned v . in this, his native country. It was at the earnest so licitation of the veteran manager, Mr. John T. Ford, that he decided to remain in this country and show his own people what a great come dian he actually is. Mr. Clarke has played the part of Adolphus Shad in the Round Trip for an entire season in England, the press being unanimous in their en dorsement of his new comedy, and nlaciner it in the same class as his x - creation of Maj. Wellington DeBoots a character he sustained quite two thousand times Toodles, The Heir at Law, The Rivals, etc. Mr. Clarke to-day is the largest owner of theatrical property in the world, being sole owner of the Walnut Street Theatre, (the oldest place of amusement in America); the Opera House, South Broad Street, in the same city, also the Strand Theatre, London. All who wish to enjoy a rare night of pure comedy should not fail to attend. He will give in addition to the Round Trip aone act comedietta entitled "A Fair Encounter." Both of these plays will positively be given in their entirety. The performance will begin promptly at 7:45 o'clock. City Conrt. The attention of the Mayor was devoted for quite a long time this morning to the investigation of the case of Tate Croom, charged with selling spoiled fish inj violation of law. There was a largfe number of witnesses in the case, sjine of whom swore most positively that the fish in question werA spoiled and - unfit for sale, while tjie others swore just as strongly that the fish were good, sound and wholesome. Mr. DuBrutz Cutlar appeared for the city, and Mr. M. Bellamy appeared for the defendant. The case was finally thrown out of Court, and thus end ed an annoying suit. Charlotte Hooper, colored, charg ed with allowing her hogs to run at large, was found guilty and was fined $2 for the. offense. Richard Stowe, colored, charged with disorderly conduct, was not really for trial, and the examination ? of his case was ti rirrnw continued until to- Hnrv W.

We regret to learn that the ven erable John P. Bannerman, of Ban nerman's Bridge, Render county, died last night, after a somewhat protracted sickness We failed to learn his precise age, but he had seen considerable more than seventy years. Mr. Bannerman was a good citizen, a kind neighbor, a just man and an exemplary Christian, who had the profound esteem and confi dence of all who knew him. A Deserter. William Sumley, a deserter from the British steamship Coventry, Capt. Bacon, was arrested this morn ing and locked up for safe-keeping until the vessel is ready for sea. He had been ashore for two days, and had had his hair cut closely, his moustache shaved off and had oth erwise so changed his appearance that Capt. Bacon passed him this morning without recognizing him, and Sumley would have, failed of recognition, had he attended to business, but he had the temerity to bid his captain "good morning,' when his voice revealed his identity and he was handed over- to the of ficer who happened to be near by.
