J After the entertainment is over, a
committee will wait on the autli-
encc and show them all the inner
conveniences of the building and
the beauties it contains.
The building has just rcocivcd
its finishing touches and tbc scat
folding lias been removed, and its
symmetrical form is ready for the
gnzo of the public. It is situated
on Mulberry street next to tho
court house, between First and
Second streets, and is a very strik
ing piece oi architecture, of the
composite kind and is made up
oi the beauties of the diilerent
kinds of ancient architecture. It has
steep gables and graceful arches,
red brick trimmed with blaok; and
gray stone tritumiugs and several
colored slate roof, these taken to
gether make a very pleasing con
trast.
The academy is erected solely
for dramatic, theatrical and kind
red purposes. On its crest is an
historic urn. lu the building
there lira no stores or places for
collateral business, but the entire
building is devoted to one purpose
and guarantees a degree ol safety
not often found in our usual play
houses. There are two fine gal
leries and the house will seal near
ly two thousand people.
The scenery is moro beautiful
and complete, if possible, tlinn the
other appurtenances, and is a feat
ure well worth seeing, anil is sup
plemented by the latest improved
stago accessories. Has a full com
plement of tiro hydrants and os-
y - ry onpes, and the building cost not
less titan $15,000. Alexander Blair
is the architect, and it is his mas
terpiece. The building is but em
blematic of tbc public spirit of Ma
con people, for tho stock is owned
by a mixed company, as lawyers,
doctors, clerks, ladies, merchants,
capitalists, etc., who subscribed
without the remotest Itopu of re
muneration.

Last evening, about dusk, tbc
whole city was worked up to

and coming in contact with it,
threw It out of balance. The lower
was the tallest in tbo city, being
