Owing to the fact that many first class theatrical attmctions visitthe city during the season, it is seldon that an amateur company can holdan audience, But this rule was re versed last night, when o number of Plattsmouth ladies and gentlemen, as sisted by Miss Arabel Kimball and Miss Bunice Stebbins produced “I'he Rivals,” Richard Briusley Sheridan’s great play at Washington hall, The performance was given for the benefit of the Creche and “was attennded by alarge and fashionable audience, miny of tho most prominent. poplo in the city ‘belng present.

Seb e e Henry Clay on Religion. The Bishops' memorial hall of the univer- sity of Notre Dame has received from Arch. bishop Janssena of the Catholich archd ceseof New Orleans, the original of aletter written by Henry Clay to his granddaughter when she was about to become a nun, This s the full text of the letter: “ASIIAND, %th Oct., 1840--My Dear Granddaughter: I received and read atten- tively your letter of the 10th inst. My per- usal of it touched and affected me very greatly, as it did your grandma, It was full of foelings and sentiments so just, con- ceived in sach a true Christian s pirit, and marked by such affectionate attachments to us and all your relations, that wo read it with the deepest interest. Whilst we could not disapprove, we were seriously and sor- rowfully concorned by your resolution to adopt theveil and dedicato the rest of your lifeto theservice of God in a convent. We would not disapproveit, because you say that your defermination has been deliberatoly formed, and_because you are solemnly con- vinced that it will be conducive to your pres- entand future happiness. But it is a graye and sorious step, resembilng i th tion from your friends aud ‘which it involves, so much speak the light grows the awful separation which death itself brings about, that we could not but feel intensn dis- tr Your happiness, my dear grandehild, has ever been an objectof intense anxiety and solicitude with us, If itis tobe pro- moted by the execution_ of the purpose you have in view, I would not, if 1 could, dis- suade you from it. I have uo prejudice against the Catholic religion. On the con- trary, I siucorely beliove that Catholics, who arotruly religious, are as sure of cternal happiness in another world as the most pious Protestants. All that I hope is that you will notact on any sudden impulse or ili.consid- ered and immature resolution, but that you ill deliberately and again and again exam- ine your own heart and consult your best judgment before you consummate your inten- tion. Write me at Washington, and in the event of your taking the veil let me know what provision exists for your support and fort, and whether any and what pecu- aid may be proper or expedient from your friends. “Adieu, my dear grandchild; may God en- Iighten, guide and direct you; and, iIf wo never meet again in this #orid, may we meet in the regions of eternity, and there join my beloved daughter, your lamented mothel Such alsoare the prayers of your grandma.

Muscular Christi » Just now Rev. Dr. Roinsford of St.George's church, New Yorig,comes in for a large share ofattention in the metropolis. There has been talk of his being disciplined by the Episcopal church for his liberal views, Dr. Rainsford belioves 1n forco when it is nece: sary. Hohasnever yot mot his match, al- though he has frequently had to eject bullies and disorderly persons ~from bis . meetings. Ata mission meeting a muscular strapping fellow appeared andtook a seat by the door, ovidently bent on mischiof. = As soon as Dr. Rainsford saw him he koew that an ejectment would occur bo fore the meeting was over, Th e fello w began his pranks and Dr, Rainsford went to him and cautioned himn to act in a secily manner orelso to leave the room, The bully was in- solent and the doctor was courageous. The ) ministerial fist grasped the bully’s coat. col- lar, and after a momentary tug the power of the church militant was demonstrated to the cutire satisfaction of the bully, as he found himself landed upon the outer steps. A fow | minutes later he returned, and following him was another strapping big feliow, who, Dr. Rainstord supposed, was a companion, | The vector said to himself: “Now I shall have & circas; 1 shall havo to put them both out” The second bully began to make trouble at once, and Dr. Rainsford went to him and commanded him to behave himself or leave, He, too, was insolent, and the doctor was about to attack him, keoping one oye fixed on the other man, whon, of o sudden, the first bully arose and glaring on the second one said, “Soy, look &' here, me and Rainsford can cleau out a half a dozen toughs like you, and if you don't look out we'll fire yor out head fitst. Dy’ hear met” The second bully collapsed immediately, and Dr. Rainsford held out his hand to the first may who grasped it warmly and ox- pressea his rospect for the man who_could collar him #nd put him out of doors. He has since become one of the doctor's wariest admirers, Growing Use of'a Liturgy. The drift sets in stronger and stronger among the various religious bodies toward the uscof a liturgy—using that word not too strictly, but as meaninga proseribad form for any religious servico, says the Church- man. Perhaps the most striking example of this drift is the proposed book of common praver designed for the Unitarian brothren, who for some time have employed ordered forms of worship, a liturgy bearing the sanc- tion of the American Unitarian association belng already in considerable favor. Buta new movement is now on foot tosupply something like a real *‘use” for the wholo body, the committoee on, public worship in- tending to “‘multiply, enlarge, and enrich ox- istng forms, o asto givo more freodoni of choice rather than less to the oficiating clereyman’ —words which bear a curious likenoss to the resolution providing for the recont rovision of our own services, Of course, among the Unitarians no central au- thority exists competent to impose any form upon the independent congregations, but that only makes more striking this example of liturgical tendemcy as . genuine *“move- the Unitarian book of common pray is an answer to a pular demand and not fond thing, vainly invented” by a fow. A Minister Kelished Profanity. A Now York clergy man told a story on tho famous Dr. Bddy the mugnificant loader in the Methodist church, whose work in tho west was 50 prodigious, aud this clergyman sald that Dr. Bddy had told him the story limsell, A Irishman was digging turf in a Eddy's house when the owner of the meadow came along and asked the Trishman what he was doing.

Our Example, It should never be forgotten that our in- fluence, unconsciously and without any special intention, wielded over others, consti tutes far the larger partof the nfluence that We excreiso among men, says the Independ- eut. This influence depmds not upon what we door say at particular times, or under peculiar circumstances, but upon what we habitually em 1o the natural, spontaucous and oft-repeated oxhibitions of 'our real char- acter, One's words go for very little as agatust this influence.

Mr. Eilsworth, brother-in- law of P, P, Bliss, the singing evangelist, { and with whom the Bliss boys are living, is an export musician and was requested by the Catholic choir to dritl them in music.
