at tbe Opera House this evening by Rev.
Chaa. F. Deems, D. D. L.L.D., formerly
of this State, but now Pastor of the

this distinguished divine will be glad of tbe
opportunity thus afforded them' of seeing
and listening once more to one who bas so
often charmed them with his eloquence,
instructed them by his wise counsel, and
entertained tbem from out of his abundant
store of useful information. There are few
more entertaining speakers in the country
than Dr. Deems, and none have beard him
once but have expressed an anxiety
to bear 'him again
His subject this
evening will be ".Nature and tbe ui-

A colored woman named Queen Tate,
living about four miles -from this city, died
suddenly on Sunday evening last. She had
just put her children to bed and then re
tired herself, when she wss heard calling,
upon which persons in tbe house hurried to
her bedside and! found her apparently
choking, and she died almost immediately.
She ia represented to have been in her usual
good health, to all appearances, when she
went to bed. Deceased formerly lived in
Duplio county aod was about 82 years old.

UPBBA HOUSE.
Xbe Doctor of Aleantara.and Cox aad
Box.
The amateur operatic performance at the
Opera House last night attracted a large
audience and most agreeably entertained
tbem for nearly four hours. Eichberg's
very charming and spirited comic opera.
"Tbe Doctor of Alcantara" was first on tbe
programme, and was splendidly put on tbe
stage,and equally as cleverly interpreted by
the ladies and gentlemen taking part. Mrs.
Lippitt, Mrs. McFarlan aod Mrs. Cameron,
were all thoroughly at horns in their parts
and sang and acted admirably and deligbU
fully tbroughout,winning always the hearti
est appreciation aad applause from the crit
ical audience in attendance. Messrs. Clarke,
Bradley and Welsh essayed the principal
male characters, aod acquitted themselves
excellently, as did also Mr. Geo. R. Dyer in
the decidedly difficult role of Balthazar.
The two porters, Sancho and Peno, are also
well entitled lo mention for the amusement
tbey afforded in their comic, duet on the
delivery of the basket.
The full and excellent chorus added
largely to the successgof the opera aod won
golden favor not only for their effective
singing but as well for the most captivat
log and striking appearance tbey presented
1 iu their rich and appropriate costumes
ihe entertainment concluded with the

and its creditable rendition, as oo
last evening, affords most delightful enjoy
ment. Tbe performance was, if anything,
rather too lengthy, and the late hour at
which it concluded renders it impossible
1 for us to give a notice this morning in tbe
least commensurate with its deserts. We
are compelled to simply briefly recount the
leading features and assure the performers
that their efforts were well thought of and
their entertainment considered in every
way a grand success by one of, if- not tbe
largest audience of the season.
Coroner va. County Commlaaioners.
There were two cases tried before Jus
tice Gardner yesterday, in which Coroner
Hewlett brought suit against the County
Commissioners for refusing to allow him
the customary fees. Tbe cases were those
of two colored men, one of whom died io
twelve and tbe other in twenty-four hours
after complaining of Bickueas. The de
fence claimed that inasmuch as physicians
bad been called upon to see tbe parties,and
bad pronounced on their cases, holding
that they were suffering from some natural
disease, there was no necessity for holding
an Inquest, the purpose, of which wss to
detect crime. Tbe plaintiff based, hia ac-
I tion on tbe provisions of chapter 25, Bat-
l tie's Revisal, which are to the effect that
I coroners, whenever informed that any per-
I son is slain or suddenly dead, either by
J drowning or otherwise, shall go to the place
where such person is, aod forthwith
summon a jury of good' and lawful
men. and ahall make inauirv when, how
and by what means such deceased person
claimed by the plaintiff that be acted upon
information received.
The Court held that the Coroner was tbe
proper party to judge whether it was
necessary to hold an "inquest or not, as the
law then stood, and that the evidence
developed in the examination was sufficient
in the opinion of the Court to show that
the Coroner was justified io holding the
inquests. Justice Gardner therefore gave
judgment for the plaintiff in both cases,
from which judgment the defendants
appealed to tbe Superior Court.
F. H. Darby, in the absence of the
County Attorney, appeared for tbe County
Commissioners, and Marsden Bellamy,
Esq., appeared for the plaintiff.

THB ROAD TO HEALTH. Cleanse the sto
mach, towels and blood from all acrid and corrupt
accumulations, and you remove the cause of most
diseases, and thus preserve good health and also
save large doctor' bills. The most effectual and
reliable remedy for this purpose is Simmons Liver
Regulator. Bead what a physician of twenty years
practice says :
"Your medicine is steadily gaining popularity,
aod is one of the Indispensables in every family
that has given it a trial, no other remedy within
my knowledge can fill its place. I have been prac
ticing medicine for twenty years, and have never
been able to put up a vegetable compound that
would, like the Liver Regulator, promptly and ef
fectively move the liver to action, and at the same
time aid (instead of weakening) the digestive and
assimilative powers of the system.
