The Performance Last Friday Nioht.—
per announcement, on last Friday even
ing the Bainbridge Thespian Corps gave a
performance at Hopson Hall, to a not very
large, but select and appreciative audience.
The performance, taken as a whole, was
nothing short of excellent.
Miss Bailey, who, to be candid, we think
deserves the palm, acquitted herself with
great credit, in fact, we don't remember to
have ever seen her equal upon the amateur
boards. In both characters ift which she
was cast, that of the “Duenna’ 1 — iff “Faint
Heart” aad -Dame TugscuR’ in “The Idiot
Witness,” she exhibited complete self pos
session. and. being a good reader, showed
thaiehc understood her parts and had fully-
mastered them: while lie? “make-up was
^entirely appropriate «nd really splendid.
To sum the whole matter up, in the rendition
of her parts on Friday evening, Miss B. gave
evidence of a talent for the stage rarely seen
in amateurs.
Miss Katie Tarsons, in the character of
the “Duchess de Torrenauever,” did exceed-
ingly well, though we think her talent and :
tastes run in a channel less sedate. Ourcit- j
izens can testify to the fact that she Ls per- ;
fectly at home in a comic character. She .
was dressed elegantly and tastily, and looked |
very pretty indeed. We don’t wonder at
the infatuation of the dashing lieutenant,
for. upon a close calculation, it is thought
that she made conquests o{ at least two-
thirds-of the masciKue hearts “present.
Miss Lizzie GreAmer, the charming, gay.
dashing innocent and pretfy “JMtef” ^tire
piece, did great credit to herself for the ex
cellent manner in which she acted.her part.
In her rendition, she displayed close and
careful study, and it was the universal ver
dict of the auditory, that her acting could
not have been improved upon, short of the
professional stage.
Mr. Jno. E. Donalscn, th| star of the
evening, as the dark and mysterious “Ar-
nard,” won special plaudits for himself. He
seemed perfectly at home, arid hi3 sublmie
acting impressed upon his auditory the un
mistakable fact that he is the possessor of
an abundant share of histrionic talent. Es
pecially in the murder scene wh'en “Arnard”
through mistake, takes the life of his own
son, did Mr. D. exhibit fine acting. His ex
ceeding grief and horror at the deed he had
perpetrated, over the dead body of his child,
was a complete life picture, and, we think,
the finest piece of acting we have ever seen
by an amateur.
Capt Gurley was, as usual, up to snuff in
his part, and received the applause of the
audience for his veA-y fine acting—though
we would advise him to study a little harder.
Mr. Jimmy Russell knew his part Well,
and rendered it in excellent style. We. have
only one little suggestion to make to Jimmy,
and tliat is, that when a boy is locked- in a
room and a letter thrown in the window
informing him that he has only an hour or
so to live, he outfit not to take things so
coolly—it don’t appear natural—but be
frightened a little bit, anyhow, just enough
to satisfyJtlie audience that the letter wasn’t
a forgery.
Mr. Jim Van Horn, as the harem scarem
old ferryman, seemed to take the world easy.
Mr. Van Horn was in this, as he is in every
character he undertakes, completely at home.
He is possessed of an originality truly refresh
ing tq his audience, and never fails to bring
down the house. The only objection we can
find to Jim on this occasiomwas that he was
rather too familiar with tlie prompter.
Mr. Rutlege Babbit, Mr. Charles Griffin
and Master Jimnlj'Tonde?, a!l,>very one of
tl^emdid well. We wpukl-suggest to them,
however, to speaku trifle louder and more
digtync-t the next time.
Last, though by no means least, comes Mr.
O. Dauvergue, who took the part of “Gilbert,
the Idiot Witness.” Air. Dauvergne is one
of our finest amateur actors, and upon this
occasion fully 7 came up to the expectations of
his friends. Though his character was not
a showy one, lie made it ail that could be
expected.
Tlie whole Corps did Well, and we consid
er the performance of Friday evening by
far the best we have ever seen upon our
boards. ,
The performance is to be repeated on next
Tuesday evening,.with a change of pro
gramme, anil we would advise all our citi
zens, who take an interest in such things, to
lie on hand.

The mania for angling is now in full
blast in our town. This epidemic is no
respecter of persons or vocations, but
seizes alike all classes, ages and colors.
Bods, lines and hooks, are in constant
requisition, and the sod is carefully
turned in quest of the wriggling bait.
Parties, pedestrian and equestrian, daily
frequent the coveted resorts of the
wary trout and the ravenous catfish.
Broad-brim hats and pants in boots,
complete the paraphernalia. “From
rosy morn ’till dewy eve.” these disci
ples of Jsaap Walton cast the tempting
bail and watch like faithful sentinels !
the floating corks. ’Tis glorious sport, j
a nibble, a sudden jerk—the thread-like ‘
Rue is suspended in the translucent air.

ano&iSg Writhing worm i* impaled on
the treacherous hook, it sinks bencatn

lifted, and dangling above the rippling
surface is the much prized product of
the liquid deep. Night approaches,
weary, diunerless and muddy, they re
turn. and with pride hold up to view
the day’s good luck. A eonca/enation

densely populated, the lands more worn
or naturally less fertile, and the indus
trial pursuits of the people more vari
ous—everything is done by companies
or corporations. You scarcely find one
man engaged in any enterprise. Be
sides agricultural societies, the farmers
are organized into grape, wool, butter
and cheese societies. They have, in
some instances, their County, State and
National societies. It is in these socie
ties that each avails himself of the ex
perience of the other. “Two heads be
ing bett^ than one,” they thus concen
trate the wisdom of many heads to en
lighten them upon any and all subjects
of farm economy. Hence we see them
approximating the highest degree of
perfection in all the domestic pursuits
of life, while we of the South are send
ing there not only for our shoes, cheese
and calicoes, but if we want something
exfira is .the way^f^tqtig, calf, sheep or
chicken ‘ we send North for that too.
By these associations, they are not
only individually enlightened, and their
business interests enhanced by progress
and improvement in all the arts and
sciences affecting the same, but they are
also enabled to make themselves a pow
er to be felt and feared in the land.
For instance, the law of Congress,
(March 4th, 18G7), repealinj^the Ke-
ciprocity Treaty,*and fixing a tariff up
on foreign wool and woolen goods, was
framed by a committee of the “Wool
Grower’s Association;” another com
mittee weut with it to Washington, and
procured its enactment by Congress.
Therefore, is it not important that
cotton growers should also organize in
some manner? Not only the farmers
of the North, but professional men ev
erywhere, can see the necessity of asso
ciation, consultation and concert of ae-
tion.
I would suggest; as a*fitting time, for
the farmers of Decatur, and others,
should they feel disposed to unite with
us, some evening during the session of
the Superior Court now sitting.
- 1 am gratified to know that our peo
ple generally are more than ever in
clined to make effort for improvement
and I confidently predict, that ere long,
a complete revolution will have been
effected in the system of farming.

Horn James Brooks-
This distinguished gentleman, for
many years editor of the New York
Evening Express, and for several terms
member of Congress from the 8th Dis
trict of Now York, who died in Wash
ington city, on Wednesday evening last,
was bora in Portland. Ale., on the 10th
of November, 1SI0. After having
graduated at Waterville College, in that
State, he studied law and was admitted
to tlie bar, but adopted journalism as a
profession, and was first celebrated for
the interesting letters which he wrote
as the Washington correspondent of the
Eprtland .(Me.) Advertiser.
After an extended tour in Europe
and a term in the Maine Legislature,
he went to New Yerk city in 1S46, and
established the Express, of which he
has since been the chief editor aud pro
prietor. lie was then an ardent Henry
Clay Whig, and as such Was first elect
ed toCongress. but he finally became
thoroughly identified with the Demo
cratic party, and was its ^recognized
leader on the floor of the House of Rep
resentatives. He was a member of the
Thirty-first, Thirty-second, Thirty-
eigth. Thirty-ninth, (his seat in which
was successfully contested by W. L.
Dodge.) Fortieth, Forty-second, and the
present Forty-third Congress.
Three years ago the deceased made
a tour around <he globe, furnishing his
paper with’ letters descriptive of his
travels, which have since been publish
ed in book form. While at the mouth
of the Ganges he contracted a malarial
disease, which has baffled the most cel
ebrated physicians, and which gradu
ally undermined his constitution. It is
believed that the excitement and de
nunciation which attended the Credit
M obi lie r developments had much to do
in aggravating his disease and hasten
ing his death.
Until these developments were made
implicating Mr. Brooks, no man stood
beforesthe country with a better record
for honesty aud integrity. Such was
his exemplary character, that _ when it
was charged that he was thus impli
cated. that maqy involuntarily exclaimed
that, if he were not honest, then, there
could be no honest Congressmen !
Mr. Brooks is dead, and let the man
tle of charity hide the very few faults
he had. *May lie rest in peace.—Atlan
