WALLACK'S THEATRE. “The Rivals’ and the “Happy Pair” were | night substituted for the ‘Road to Ruin.’ The change of bill brought out the brilliant audience that is aistinctively Wallackian, and tne /oyer looked as bright as a flower garaen, Miss Dyas and Mr. Montague, in the “Happy Pair,” renewed their former successes, and the audience admired the perlormance as though they were contemplating something their own experience in a mirror. The “Riv 3," with Jono Gilbert, Beckett, Arnott, Fioyd, in the cast, with Miss Dyas as Lydia Langutsh, and Mme. Ponisi as Mrs. Drop was worthy of the home of the old comedy. 8 Dyas’ performance of Lydia Languish added another laure! to the many she has already gathered on the American stage. LYCEUM THEATRE. The benefit performance tenderea last nigot to Mile, Girardin at this house was an unusually interesting event. Three light and charming comediettas were pre- sented for the occasion, and the man- ner in which they were acted, and the side of French life portrayed, so different from the pictures which the sensational drama has familiarized us, were traly re- fresping. Mlle. Girardin, the fair bé aire ap- peared in all three pieces and displayed an admir- able versatility in her picturing of girlhood, fer Adrienne, tn Barriére’s “Le Feu au Convent,” Was especially sweet and simple. It wasa de- leious piece of acting and haa about it an odor of innocence we rarely encounter in the theatre, The hoase was good, but pot so large as it ought to have been. Mile. Girardin was supported by Messrs. Juignet, Genot, Girard and Stuart, RISTORI'S FAREWELL.

A SOUND STEAMER RUNS INTO A STEAM YACHT— IMMINENT DANGER OF LOSS OF LIFE, BUT THE PLEASURE PARTY AND ALL HANDS SAVED. A collision occurred yesterday afternoon in the East River, off Hatlett’s Point, opposite Ninety- fecond street, between the Sound steamer 0. H. Northam, on her way to New Haven, and the steam yacht Signet, which, besides causing seri- ous damage to the yacht, came near resulting in the 1088 Of several lives, The signst was the pleasure yacht or Mr. Peter Cooper until the beginning of the present month, when he sold it to Mr. Grinnell, formerly the pro- prietor of the Long Island Fashion Track, who, with his family, yesterday intended to go upthe river on @ first pleasure excursion. The yacht took on board, at the foot of Thirty-fourth street, Mr. and Mrs. Grinnell, their two sons and two daughters, with two relatives of the family, and after steaming down to Peck slip, where she received some boats, returned, going up the river as far as Hallet’s Cove, leaving the boats there, and then, at about four o'clock, she started up the river.%A pleasant trip of nalf an hour brought them as far as Hallett’s Point, bat on the same route also, and closely following the Signet, was the Northam. There 1s always a fair tide up the river as far as the Point, and it is easy sailing Qn the eddy, but coming round the Point the ex- Derienced pilot looks ous for a four-knot current coming with the strong ebb tide, It was at this spot = that the Hope, the Americus and other small vessels were lost within a period of not many years. When the Signet was nearing Hallett’s Poins tne C. H. Northam was so close bebind her that the latter whistied twice to tell the Signet’s pilot to keep to one side so that the Sound boat might pass, The signais passed unheeded, however, and in & moment the huge steamboat haa come upon the smailer vessel, turning her complete.y over. People on the Astoria shore who saw the vessels passing and who knew the danger ahead, watched them with anxtety, knowing the Intricactes of the place. Af the time o! collision the two engineers were in the engine room, one of them being at dinner, and one o1 the two deck bands was in the forecastie, the orner being on the deck beside the wheel. The passengers were all in the cabin amusing themselves playing games. The Signet was struck by the Northam at the pilot house, on the port side, and the anchor and thirty-five fathoms of chain, the that many months must go by ere we met pilot houge, engine room and the wheel were ably two years—twice twelve months. all swept away, nothing but @ mass of débris years till then! but I need scarcely sa: will | being leit at the bow end of the. yacat. ofien picture you, my triends, as I see yo ing. ahd Lamm’ proud and happy to believe. tha not meanwhile be altogether forgotten by you. for ¥! own bright lana. gracious welcome and continuous en- couragement will never be away from my thoughts Good night.
