The; passen ger lists of the New Bern e indicate that 1 i the line is growing in favor with the travelling public. It is the mos ant and expeditious, as well pleas as the cheapest route by which to reach Eliza beth City and that section from the in- terior of the State. We learn t iat the fare by steamer "from New Berne to K City is not much more than" from the latter point to Norfolk by rail, while the iare irom itaieign to iew 5eraeis onlj Nor about half of that from Raleigh to folk. The Theatre Fridat Night. The Richmond and MeElreth Dramatic Company will perform at the Theatre on Friday and Saturday nights. The. press generally speak jwell of the Company, and we quote from the Somerset Ken tucky Recorder as follows: 1 Owen8 Opera House was filled to its utmost capacity; last night to witness the above named company in that great Irish Drama, Kathleen Mavpurneen, The play itself had been seen before by our citizens, but the comi any was new to them; they, however, came endorse by all the Kentucky towns of any note, and the audience expected something better than u' average performance, and they were not disappointed, for, from the rise of the curtain to the end of the performance, there was a series of continual bursts ot applause. The acting the music, the costumes all werd deserv ing of especial mention; everything chaste, elegant and refined. Everybody was agreeably surprised and we can only say we sincerdly hope for many ' more pleasant visits from Richmond and Mc Elereth, and can safely say in behalf of1 our citizens that no company gave such full and complete satisfaction.
