Mr. Neal, who seema vot to havo undorestl- mated the magnitude of the subject, moved that these bills be referred ton specinl committee of seven for consideration, and that they bo minie the speciat order for Friday noxt. Mr. Shaw made a long speech on the subject of drafraye, elalining that the subject was an finportant one and one In which a large number of the people were interested. fe waa not aat- fsfled with the present billa, and was in favor of the reference, R Mr. Ficklin said whatever step was taken in this direction should be right, for it was a mat- ter of great necessity to the farmers of the Btste, No other menaure that fs passed by this House was of moro {mportauce than thia, 1¢ wns better to pass no bill at all than to poss a dtl] that the Courts shontd declare unconatitutional. He was for acting slowly and surely, and he was in favor of this Genera!

The Sneaker, having ruled that afl the bills on third reading could not be made the special order, tho uestion was ralscd os to where the Yne could be drawn. Three bills having been made the speclal order for to-day, tha Speaker declded thut he would arbitrarily fix the Himit ut ten bills, aud accordingly those bills were made the spectal order at the time indicated.

The Western Manufacturers’ Mutual Insur- ance Company, anotice of the meeting and election of officers of which was published in Tus Tripone a few days ago, is rapidly aesum- ing the proportions of a sound and well-organ- ized corporation, and.is betng recognized by the manufacturers and busineas-men of the West as mova ino the right direction. Judging from the enthusiasm that has already been displayed by {te {ucorporators, it is evident that they ‘mean business? while the long ling of applications on sume of the best property in tha West that bas becn presentud during the comparatively brief period of existence of the Company attests the confl- dence that isreposcd init, and renders it snfe to predict that i¢ will be supported by an array of insurors not surpussed by any stock company represented in our {surance circles. The man- ufacturers nnd bustness-mon of tho West are becoming tired of paying excessive premium rates for fire indemutty, and are now taking measures to cheapen the cost of insurance.

IAVERLY’S, ‘ The personatlun of Spartacus, the leading character {o Byrd's picturesque und {nteresting tragedy of “ The Gladiator” is justly regarded as onc of Mr. Jolin M’Cullough’s finest efforts. Give this artist o role in which he has qe por- trayal of whatever is manly, chtvalrous, and herofe ip human nature, and he attains a per- fection beyond the grasp of any American actor now upon the stage. In that of Spartacus, which he ployed last night for the second time this week, he has a velicle well suited for the display of his best qualities,—bis power and his pathos, his sturdiness, his robustucss, dis eloquent and well-polnted reading, und his organ-toned volce, which ts the “voice of the actor of tradition. Throughout this performance, as indeed throughout most of those during the present engagement, there was the atrong indication that the day [s not far distant whon that im- mengo force within hin will be completely un- der his contro), aud when that day comes he will make sweet music over the cnameled stones, The gulat dignity, the mental and physital superiority over his captors, tn the scene occurring In the frst oct, were odmi{ra- ably assumed and cleverly conveyed, and the recognition of bia wife and the supplication to Lis masters were replete with pathetic touch- es, Which called forth prolouged recognition from the audience, Inthe arena, where op- portunity for overacting 1a very great, Mr. McCullough kept bimeelf well under control, and in the quarrel scene the snddeu chunyes: from passion to tender entreaty wero skill- fully contrasted. Mr. Charles Barron a3 Pha- sarius gaye a smooth and consistent tnter- pretation of the impulsive Thracian charac- ter; Miss Emma Stackman won spproval’ os Sarona, Miss Virginia Thorne did reasonably well as the insipid Julia, and Mr, HT, Av Lanzdod as Crassus did wot risc above mediocrity, Praise should be accorded the management for the ap- prupriate and artistic mounting of the piece, which mnaterially tended to fts enjoyment. At the matinee to-day ‘The Gladiator? will be rdpented, und in the ovening “Henry VILL" will be the main feature, with John McCullough as Cardinal Wolsey and Miss Gavin as Queen Katherine. Mr, Charles Barron. wilt personate |+ Hugh de Braasin “A Regular Fix," which will terminate the evening's pertormunce. PINAFORE, The second performance of “ Pinafore” by the troupe at MeVicker'’s, last evening, drew o yery large audience, the theatre being thor- oughly filled, and with an sudlence lareely made up of musical people, whose appreciation, und. even opthistuam, a8 the opern progresscd, was 4 strong testimonial to the excollenco with which the work was giveu. In nearly all reapccts the performuncy was such an linprovement on that. of the opening night and wentso smoothly as toindicate that the piece will have quite a run, On the opening night, ouly the Introductica, Which moy-bo found Ip the plano score, was played, but tho orchestral parts of the overturo urriyed yesterday, andit was played last evening, thus civing the complete score of the work, The averture ie a very clover paraphrase of the principal themes, und was excelleutly played. The = chorus sane with» muds vigor ant precision; and caught the humorous spirit of the work, The solo alugers also !mproved. upon their work, though the Admiral and Jut- fercup, both in singing und acting, fall far short of Blving anything like an adequate per- forinance of their roles, and the second repre- sentation gives tittle promise that they will show aiich progress in the futuro, The au. dlence expressed its satisfaction so enthuaf- astically and frequently tu encores that the larger proportion of the work was repeated, ‘This evening a very excellent performayce may be anticipated, HAMLIN’S. Four acts of melodrama are being dished up nightly at this theatre under the title of “A Mau of the People.” Milton Nobles plays thy hero, The story tella the tale of a brother and slator, the lutter wronged and suffering, the for- |- mer atruggting to right her through a aerice of Jncidents fragrant of the weekly story paper. ‘The brother ts introduced to us as 4 good-for- nothiig, {ull-ficdeed ‘street arab, who fs saved fren degradation by the {nter- cession of a sewing-girl, /tuse Warren.

This sn- nouncément 1s that “Ji. M. 8. Pinafore’ will be brought outat the Boston Theatre either April 7 or 14 with the following cast; The Captain Myron W. Whitney ‘The Admiral H.C. Rarnabee Ralf Racka! ‘om Kath Deadeye o . Gilbert Battereu, »Adelaine Philipps Hebe. .. “ " ceeees Georgle Cayvan For the part of Josephine no definite choice bas ‘et been matte, the names suggested being Marie Stone, Henrictta Bebee, Fanny Kellogg, and Dora Whitey, either one of whom would he acceptable. The chorus will number fifty picked voices, and the orchestra, under N. Lothtan, could not be bettered. Tlie presentation of thie ‘opera by such an organization can bardly fail to prove the sensation of the scason, Anda pro- tracted runseems assured. One can bardly {mmagiue anything funoier than the inimitable Barnabee as the Admiral, nnd Miss Phillipps will tpake the Zuttercup a revelation. The utter absurdity of Gitbert’s ideas will urely be realized when one secs the dignified Whitney carolling to ' yon falr moon,’ and regretting that * averything ta izes ond at sevens.” * ‘BOTHERN TO BFE CRUBIIED.
