Tho Thespians!
large and enthusiastic audience—
L\ Lin BODY PLEASED MOMUS ON THE
RAMPAGE FUN AND MIRTH THE OR
DKR OF THE DAY THE LADIES EN
RAPPORT THE PERFORMANCE A COM
PLETE SUCCESS.
We .regret our inability to have
boon present at the performance of
too 1 hespians on last Wednesday
night, the praises of which we hear
in every body’s mouth, to day, (Thurs
day.) Our special reporter who was
on hand gives us the following well
written account of what took place,
i lie performance began with that
celebrated and amusing Drama The
Toodles, winch was rendered in a style
that reflected much credit upon the
corps. Miss Annie E. G., "as Mrs.
Toodles, and .Miss EugeniaM., as M.w
ry Acorn, executed their parts with
an ease and grace, that elicited the
approval of the entire audience. Mr.
Cohen as “Toodles'’ was, in a word,
inimitable, as a young lady remarked,
—“As an inebriate he can make a
drunkard ashamed of himself.”
Mr. Connor next “brought down the
house” in loud and continued applause
with, “Those tassels on the boots.”
Mr. Julian next figured in that
touching and beautiful extract from
Shakespeare, “The Dream and “death
of Clarence.” lie personated the
character of Clarence in a manner that
would have done credit to the bestac
tor of a tirst class theater. We heard
the highest encomiums pronounced
both upon his oratoracal and dramatic
talents. The rapt attention and
breathless silence of the audience
showed their appreciation of this trag
ic scene.
Alter this, Mr. E. 13. Merrell won
repeated shouts and cheers from the
audience in an original parody, euti
tied, “Gay and festive darkey from
die South.” Bruce acted his part with
a gusto that would have made a ne
gro “hide his diminished head in the
dust.”
The closing scene was the “ Haunt
ed House,” a burlesque upon the me
diums and spirit rappers that have ex
cited so much astonishment among
the credulous fyr the past few years.
We have not time to mention near
all we saw and heard during (lie even
ing Suffice it to say, the audience
was large and enthusiastic, and each
of tiie pci formers were well drilled in
their several characters. After the en
tertainme.it was over, the older por
tion of the audience dispersed, and left
the younger ones in possession of the
hall. Then a lively scene began.
Nimble footed Terpsichore ascended
the throne, the musie began and co
tillions, reels, waltzes, polkas and ma
zourkas were executed with a grace,
skill and rapidity that makes your re--
porter’s brain whirl to think of even
now.
In the “ wee small hours,” the gay
party broke up and retired to live over
again, in their dreams, the happy eve
ning they had spent.
Blalock & Tanner. —The atten
tion of our readers is called to the ad
vertisement of the above firm, to be
found in this issue of our paper. This
is anew house, comprised of enter
prising young men, who aredelermin
cd to build up a big trade in Carroll
ton. To accomplish this end, they
will always be found ready toacccom
rnodate their patrons, and sell them
anything in their line as cheap as it
can be bought in this market.
Broke Jail.— The negro Henry
Drayton who was committed to jail
at tlii- place, not long since, charged
with murder, and the horse thief
(white) John Marlin, who was comits
ted on last Monday, succeeded in mak
ing their escape on Tuesday night,—■
They made their exit from theii cell,
by burning out a block overhead,
which had once been sawed out, and
afterwards fastened back by iron bars,
and then from the building, through
a window. A description of the par
ties will be found in an advertisement,
of the Sheriffs in another place.
P. S.— Since the above was put in
type, the young man Martin, has been
re-captured, by the Sheriff and his
Deputy. They stumbled upon him
just across Ihe line, in Alabama, be
low Bowdon.
Kuna way. —On last Tuesday even
ing, as Bob Upshur and Jno. Worthy
were driving out of town on the Villa
Rica road, tiie former iu a top buggy,
and the latter iu a one horse wagon
’ behind, the horse of the latter became
brightened, and ran the wagon against
the buggy, of Mr. Upshur, who was
just in trout, breaking the spindle off of
one of the bind wheels. This was the
only damage done. The horse of Mr.
Worthy stopped immediately after the
collision and Bob’s fine gray, paid no
attention to the racket.

Pieese's Polytechnic High School
The attention ofthose interested in the
great cause of education, is called to
die advertisement of the above school,
to be found in this issue ot the Times.
Prof, lieese, as a teacher, enjoys an
enviable reputation, and is building up
in Carrollton a good high school. He
has, during the past year, at great per
sonal expense to himself, built in a
convenient portion ot the town, a
first class academy, especially adapted
to the health and comfort cf his pu
pils. This building reflects credit
upon the town, as well as the untiring
energy, and perseverance ot Prof
lieese. It also shows that he is a fix
ture in Carrollton, so that parents pat
ronizing him, will not be constantly
annoyed, as is too often the case,
with a constant change of teachers.
Read his large double column adver
tisement.

v the name of John Martin was commit
ted to jail at this place on last Mon
day. The horse which he had stolen
was from a Mr. McGuire in the 9th
District of this county. He was cap
tured, near Jonestoro, Clayton coun

Dedicated to the P, M., who Re

Editor Times :—lt affords me a
source of great pleasure, to be able to
inform you, that the P. M., who stole
my “Dollar Bill,” some weeks, ago
has relurned(through the politeness of
Uncle Gam) the same to my address

means of the Carroll Times, that 1
received this money, I propose to
make you a present of it the first time
we meet
There was no caption or date to
the letter, and only signed P. M. I
could not make out the postmark.—
lie seems to have the deepest sorrow
and contrition for the great wrong he
committed iu stealing my “Dollar
Bill.” He says it was the fiist tiling
he ever stole, and that he is fully res
solved it shall be the last.
The poetry dedicated to the P. M.,
some weeks ago in the columns of
your paper, I have changed the meter
of the same, to suit the occasion. I
wish you would publish it, as my last
farewell and parting benediction to
the now penitent rogue, “who stole
my dollar bill.”

And may the waters gladly flow,
