lt was our pleasure to attend the
second entertainment given at Ma
fonic Hall in aid of the Lutheran
Church." The affair was gotten up by
n coirjwittee of ladies, whose assistance
should always be invoked on such
occasions, and whose exertions never
fail of success. Prof. Berg furnished
music for the evening; and it was such
as he alone could contribute.
The programme for Thursday even
ing wae as follows : "Artist's Studio,"
"Out Manienvered," ??Honor Among
Tnicvcs,'' "Gypsy's Warning," "No
Boso Without Thorns," "Mad Cap,"
"Scandal Parly," "A Rumpus at a
Shoemaker Shop," and "Brass Band."
It is not ours to make any invidious
distinctions. Ours is tho part of
proclaiming well done to every ono
who assisted in making Thursday
evening so delightful and entertain
ing to our citizens. Tho "Artist's
Studio" was superb, while "Out
Maneuvered" carried with it a moral
both beautiful nnd grand. In this
Charade each part was well and elo
quently sustained. The acting of
"Uncle Jasper" and his niece was
especially good.
Cordobcllo. the Brigand, Chas.
Vane and his dear Alice, Mrs. Beau
mont and the landlord, by their artis
tic conception of the characters they
represented, made "Honor Among
Thieves" one of tho niont charm
ing features of the entertainment.
Mrs. Vane and Mrs. Beaumont did
great credit to themselves. "Gypsy's
Warning" was also good. "JS'o Rose
without a Thorn" was true to life, ni il
portrayed with eloquent tongue how
deceitful a lady can be when she has
a point to carry by it. ''Mail Cap"
had it admirers; but "Scandal Party"
brought down the bouse, and suggest
ed to one's mind Sheridan's School for
Scandal, and the meals that arc made
of good people's names by a crowd of
lady back-Liters when to themselves.
The las* Charade of the evening,
"l'umpus at a Shoemaker Shop/' was
splendidly performed. The flunk of
the entertainment by '.he Brass Band
was laughter-stirring; and closed one
of the most delightful amateur per
formances ever given in this place.
As we have said ill ready, every one
connected with the affair achieved
great success, and is deserving of
much prau-c.
Professor Berg is getting up anoth
er entertainment, tvhich promises to
be sparkling in every particular.

Governor Packard; answering
General Augur's request to allow
matters to remain slain ijm>t says : "I
felt that the request would have been
more appropriate if made immediate
ly lifter my installation as Governor,
and before many of the main branches
of government had been taken prosses
sion of hy the opposition," but con
cludes: "1 will give the pledge re
quested that no effort will be made
on tho part of the lawful Stale govern
mcnt to forcibly disturb tho existing
state of affairs without further com
umni cation with you."
Tho effect of tho instructions from
the "War Department to General
Augur to preserve tho Status of both
parties until tho report of tho Con
gressional committees aro received is
plainly visible to day. All danger of
a collision is regarded as passed, at
least, for the present.
The following is General Augur's
reply to Governor Packard's letter of
last night:
IIdq's Dkpartmknt ortiii:Gri.t', )

Wm. 8. It. /'<o/.-atut, State JJousc:
Di Alt Sin?Your letter, dated the
10th instant, which you had publish
ed in the newspapers and telegraphed
North before it was povsiblp for me to
etc,is reCcivo<l. '1 bough addressed to
nie, I uinler-ilaud very well that it is
not paiiienlarly intended lor mo, and
but for sonic errors affecting nie per
sonal y should not think it necessary
to make any reply. Yon state thai
orders had been issued early on this
day, i lip Dili instant by the Honorable
Secretary of War, directing that un
authorized bodies should be required
to desist. 1 (you) considered this of
the Secretary of War as virtually
commanding a maintenance ol'statu
oho, consequently the Slate forces in
charge cf I be. dill brent positions out
side of the capital were directed to
make such resistances as would com
pel manifestation (f force and breach
of the peace on the part of t huir oppo
nents. It was my understanding that,
neither should he permitted lo inter
fere with the status of (he other side
In reply lo this, I would state the
time of day at which ibis order was
issued was i ihr.Material; it was not re
ceived here until some time alter the
surrender; without resistance of the
Supreme Court room arsenal, and all
of tho police stations, and it. is quite a
new thing to me lo hear that you ever
considered that order as commanding
a maintninnncc of statu quo. Yourself
and ofilccrs in command immediately
under you have repeatedly slated that
it. was intended to seize any favorable
opportunity to recover the Court
room, and you hnve repeatedly spilt
your sheriff to demand that room, an 1
have twice since made written appli
cation to me for troops to assist in
such recovery. This does look as
though it was your understanding thai
neither side should ho permitted to
interfere with the status of the other
sine. It was the fact of these threats
to recover lost ground wherever favor
able opportunity presented itself that
has furnished an excuse lor the
Nieb?lls party l.i keep a force in readi
ness to resist them, and it was in view
ol this very condition of affairs that
yesterday morning I directed two o.
my staff, one to see you and one to see
General Nieholls, to inquire, not re
quest, if some agreement or under
standing could not be entered into by
which the siatit quo could be guaran
teed until such time as the President
should niako bis decision. Such an
arrangement would do away with the
supposed necessity of keeping up a
body of armed men on either side, and
dim inish very greatly the chances for
violence and bloodshed. I n:ade no
request in the matter?I had no right
to make any request. It, was simply
a suggestion in the interest, as 1
thought, cf peace und to give moments
of quiet to the citizens of this excited
city. Neither General Nielmlls nor
yourself thought, it advisable to adopt
it, and there it ended. An error was
made, too, in tl u form ?f memoran
dum lef t yon by Ma jor Kussel I last
night, though of no particular mom
cut, still I prefer to be reported cor
rectly. In directing the staff officer
last night to deliver lo you an Geh.
Nicholls each a copy of the dispatch,
of the Kith, from the Secretary of war,
he was told, "Say to each that I. hope
they will give assurances that the
President's wishes shall bo respected.''
I made no request for .*>uch assur
ances.
Very respect fully, your obedient
servant, ('. C. Aftit.'u,
Prigndier General Commanding.
