The Theatre To-night.
This evening the Jno. T. Ford Amateur
Association give an entertainment at the
Theatre for the benefit of the Savannah
Port Society. The programme which will
be presented on this occasion is considered
the best yet offered by the association, and
from the careful rehearsals that have been
given it we have no doubt it will be
rendered in excellent and most pleasing
style, in a manner w orthy the high re’puta-
tion the talented association has already
achieved. The play with which the perform
ance opens is a beautiful d-arna, and will be
presented with new a:ul elegant, costumes,
appropriate scenery, and all the requisite
stage effects. The olio entertain
ment is particularly attractive and
embraces several new and amusing
specialties. The evening’s amusement will
conclude with the ever popular “Branna-
gan’s Band” under the leadership of Drum
Major Bren. We hear that new costumes
will be worn by the band on this occasion,
and an entirely new feature will be intro
duced.
The friends of the Port Society should
fill the house this evening, as, independent
of helping a good cause, they will have the
pleasure of witnessing a first-class entertain
ment.

register.

Farewell Appearance of MIk»
TliompMou.
This charming and talented actress took
her farewell of Savannah yesterday iu two
performances, “Jane Ey<&” at the matinee,
and as “Julia” in the Hunchback in the
evening, in both of which she was greeted
by fair audiences. We have expressed our
opinion so freely of Miss Thompson's “Jane
Eyre” on Monday evening, that there is
nothing now to add. Its reproduction at
the matinee yesterday afternoon was equally
flue, and convinced us that in this role she
is without a rival. The entire performance
was excellent, and was indeed a rare treat,
the support being equally as good as on its
first presentation.
The play of the “Hunchback” is one of
the most beautiful of dramas, and its popu
larity with the intelligent, refined and ap
preciative theatre goer, is attested by the
fact that it has never failed to draw crowd
ed audiences, and that some of the most
talented actresses that have ever honored
the stage have rendered the character of
“Julia.” We were prepared to enjoy Miss
Thompson’s portraiture of the beautiful
character of “Julia,” and our highest anti
cipations were realized, a< a purer represen
tation could not have been desired. The sup
port rendered in the principal roles was fair,
while the Helen of Miss Lewis, the Modus
of Mr. Woodersou, and the Fathom of Mr.
Gregory were very good. Indeed, the en
tire performance was pleasing, hut it would
have bceu much better had the play not been
so unmercifully cut in the first and second
acts. The third, fourth and fifth acts, how
ever, were rendered with good effect, and
we are sure that iu expressing our own
pleasure at the performance, taken as a
whole, we but echo the feelings of the intel
ligent house.
We may here truly say that in Miss Thomp
son’s engagement our community have been
treated to a series of performances which
have charmed and delighted and have done
much to revive interest in the drama among
the better class of our people, who of late
have not been great patrons of the theatre.
We can conscientiously comm nd Miss
Thompson and her troupe, and ean assure
the people of our sister city, Charleston,
where they open to-night, that iu her en
gagement they have a rare dramatic treat.
A SEUIOIS CHARGE.
A Negro Arre*te<l on Suspicion of
Firing His House with tlie Inten
tion to ISuru His Wife.
A negro man by the name of June Gard
ner was yesterday arrested by Magistrate
Isaac Russell upon information received
from a certain source that justified the
suspicion that he was guilty of a very
grave offense. It appears that on Sunday
night last June borrowed a match from a
certain party, and was seen to stow some
cotton in his pocket. Shortly after
wards the shanty on Hall street,
near Montgomery, occupied by Scylla
Gardner, his wife, was discovered to be
on fire. Just previous to the discovery of
the fire a colored woman states that she saw
June coming out of the front door of the
house. He and his wife did not live to
gether, the woman refusing to have any
thing to do with him iu consequence of his
relations with another colored female, and
it is stated that he set fire to the premises
from a spirit of revenge.
Magistrate Russell is determined that the
matter shall receive thorough investigation,
and, for this purpose, will hold a prelimi
nary examination shortly.
The Prize Drill of tlie Oglethorpe*.
The annual prize drill of the Oglethorpe
Light Infantry took place last night at their
drill room. The corps assembled with full
ranks at eight o’clock, under the command
of Lieutenant Sanford W. Branch, and the
drill began shortly after. One by one the
ranks were thinned out under the close test
of the judges, and in 6ixty-five minutes
from the beginning of the contest but one
man remained, Private F. M. Gage. To him
was awarded the honor of wearing the com
pany’s medal for the next year, or until an
other shall have proved himself the better
soldier The medal was presented to the
victor by Major J. F. Brooks with a few ap
propriate remarks.
The prize medal is an ante-bellum heir
loom ot this veteran corps, and was the ob
ject of as much ILeJy emulation in old days
is It is now. Dunn* til- yenr in which the
late wa r begun, it was won by Private Ja»„ E.
Grade who preserved it throughout that
struggle, and he, on the reorganization of
th“ corps a few years since, returned it to
them. After the presentation, the corps
was drilled in company drill for about an
hour, a.id showed remarkable proficiency in
every movement.
