Our old acquaintances, the Bergen, who are to appear at the Opera House this eve ning, are thus referred to by the Savannah IfetM ot a late date : "A very refined and cultured audience greeted the Bergeravale Concert Company on their first appearaaoa altbalbeatro last evening, and mosVattpjy were, they repaid for their attendance, Tbe entertainment openedvith an orchestra overture by the full brass band, and was followed by a cor netaolo by Mr. A. M. Holbrook, which was received with every evidence of pleasure. Miss Mary Bowen, an attractive young lady, then favored the audience with a reci tation, in a style which showed that she had carefully atudled elocution. This waa followed by a aolo from Miss Etta Morgan (who is well and popularly remembered in connection with the Berger family) on the Saxophone, a queer looking instrument in shape, resembling a meer schaum pipe. 6he was enthuslsstically ap plsuded for tbe artistic execution dis played. "Mr. Charles W. Brewster, a talented young ventriloquist, next appeared, and with his Isy figures afforded, the house ciptul amusement for some twenty minutes or more. Mr. Brewster is very skillful In the practice of thia difficult accomplish ment, and has few equals aad no superior that we have seen as a ventriloquist. The selection plsyed by the Berger Cor net Band was superbly rendered, and was followed by another capitsl recitation by Miss Marie Bowen. ' . "The rlther solo, by Mr. A. Fisher, one ot tbe moat accomplished musicians in the country, was a genuine treat. . "One of the most pleasing And enjoyable features of the evening wis the bell duet, by Miss Etta Morgan and Mr. Henry G. Berger. It wasv a relic ot th popular Berger of eadyeadwae meat heartily recog nixed aad appreciated. . They were greeted with round after round of applause, and twioe recalled. "Mr. Leo Brand'a performance on the xylophone waa artiaUo and skillful, and elicited hearty plaudits.

It may be gratifying to the a cted peo ple of Wilmington to know that they arc not alone ia their misery about market houses. The town of Edenton is in trouble loo. The Board ot Councilmen ef that ancient burg having paaaed a resolution providing for tbe sale of ber market house, a petition ia in circulation praying that honorable body to rescind tbe resolution In Edenton tbe people don't want to sell, and in Wilmington tbey don want to buy. This is a big question In Wilmington, and is likely to settle the hab of divers and sundry Aldermsnlc aspirants one way or the other. Meantime, we buy our ahanks and tripe and bivalveaon the best possible terms, without regard to geographical lines, and with an eye single to the glory of our stomachic department.

A New Hall far th Calered People. Allen Evans, one ot our prominent and energetic colored men, is about completing a Isrge building on the corner of Fourth and Brunswick streets, comprising two stores below and a large hall above. On Tueaday night, in accordance with invlr tallon, quite a number ot colored people met to "cbrieteo" the hall and to partake of the refreshments, both solid end liquid, provided by the host for hU Invited guests in honor ot the occasion. After partaking of these to tbelr entire satisfaction the as semblsge was called to order and Ben j. Hill, who bad been selected for the doty, pro ceeded with appropriate remarks to an nounce that the hall would hereafter be known by the name ot 2CnnW HaU, in honor of the proprietor' youngest daugh ter. The festivities did not closa until about 13 o'clock, and were, we learn, greally enjoyed by those present. In di mensions, the hall Is about 40 by 70 feet.

The company have purchased a lot at the corner ot Sixth and Campbell streets, in the location known as Csmp Lamb, which has tbe advantage of being convenient to the railroad, as well as other wise adapted in the way ot temperature, etc, as a plsce for the manufacture of tobecco.

It being her first offence, and she having been locked up since Monday night, the Msyor suspended judgment in her case, with the understanding that- if brought before him again on a similar charge she will receive double punishment. No More Biralrea. Said an old Market street merchant yes terday, "D n It, doa't things look dead around here since them fish carts was re moved?" Then the tears began to trickle down his aged cheeks as he said, "I never expect to eat another oyster as long as I live. I can't buy one without going to the new market, and damme if Til ever eat one that came from there." This reporter squeezed a little lemon iuice into his eyes and mingled his young tears with those of the venerable merchant aforementioned. Verily, we are fallen upon evil times.
