EVENING STAR. “LOCAL INTELLIGENCE. Natiosan Taeatee.—The play of “ Mary ‘Tudor,’ in which Mrs, Farren performed last night with such brilliant effect, is said to have been written for Mrs. Farren by Mr. Edmund Flagg. of the State Department, and was first produced in St. Louis The success this ad- mirable piece at once attained, shows that s capital playwright was lost when Mr Flagg devoted himself to graver pursuits. Mre Farren appears to-night as Peg, in the comedy of Peg Wofington, which we are glad to see repeated, as. we doubt not, will all who had the satisfactien of beholding its first per- formance, at the National. The evening’s en- tertainments conclude with the sterling drama of “The Golden Farmer.” The management of the National have am- ply redeemed their promise to supply the first dramatic talent available to their ashington patrons, and we trust their pecuniary returns may substantially indemnify them for their labor and expense. Haxps on Your Pocker Book —Yesterday afternoon, on the arrival of the Southern boat, four sngpicious looking persons, who had been lingering about the wharf, were arrested by the new police officers, Gill and Lloyd, upon the information of Mr. George Taylor, who testified that one of the party, a youth of about fifteen years, had made an attempt to pick « lady's pocket while she was entericg an omnibus. While these parties were stand- ing in the vicinity of a gentleman on board the boat, his pocket-book suddenly dropped on the floor in a manner indicating that pick- pockets were about, but that they had tailed to manage the attempt with usual adroitness. Th ay sears parties were sent to jail by Justice Rowland for further hearing. Tae New Pottce who have given bond, en- tered upon their duties yesterday. Some of them have already given evidence by their conduct that the laws of the Corporation will be enforced strictly without prejudice or par- tiality. Others have not completed their ar- rangements, but all will probably be on duty before the end of the week. Last night the Mayor, with the Captainjof the Guard, visited the beats of the watchmen in the central Wards, an act not often performed by the Mayor since Mayor Lenox's time, when it was considered a duty of his honor to make him- self \ seieomend acquainted with the guards andthe manner in which they attended to their daty. —— Corporation Caszs.—Quite a number of cases of this description will be reported to the Chief of Police during the coming week, by the new officers. Many grow out of ne- glect or ignorance of the laws. The following cases were disposed of yesterday : Catharine Ormesby, drunk and disorderly; workhouse thirty days; committed by Justice Hollings- head. Henry Douglass, for profanity, and Chas. Brown, throwing stones ; fine and costs ; arrest by Officer Fanning, and tried by Justice Stevens. New Bookstore —Some dozen years ago, or thereabout, a person undertaking to set up s bookstore on Soventh street would have been thought a fit subject for a lunatic hos- pital; xow, what with increase of population nd the steady march of improvement, Sev- exth street has become a great business thor- re, aud numbers almost as many book- Pennsylvania avenue. By the ad- ment it will be seen that Mr B. W. Perguson has opened a fine assortment of ks at No 485 Seventh street, Someraine.—This morning we noticed a small tent erected on the market space, and from the crowd of boys and men around, sup- pose that something is there exhibited to at- t the curious. The music of a hand organ, © lustrument of the sort, was drawing boys in to eye the sights, and there was a little disorder until the Guards interfered. Court or Ciarms —Yesterdzy, Mr. Phillips clesed the argument in behalf of the claimants ia the case of the brig General Armstrong on the facts, and the case was submitted. Mr. Polk opened the case of J. H Waggo- man vs. The United States, when the Solicitor replied, and the case was submitted. Ad- jJvurned, _—_— Oustevses ror Pic-Nics, and every way comfortable, can be had of Mr. Williaw Whaley at short notice.

Matilda Beck, indecent ex- posure: dismissed. _Removar —The Northern Liberties’ Fire Company have taken possession of their new engine house at the intersection of New York avenue and L and Sixth streets, and the old engine house has been removed: thus leaving the view through Eighth and K streets unob- structed. Great Baroains rx Lace Goons are offer- ed by Mr. A. Tate. We think it would be iificalt to find s finer assortment of goods this side of New York, than is offered by Mr. Tate, and the prices at which they are sold sre suprisingly low. Call and give them an examination. Scpgers STRAWBERRIES were those received from Mr. M Griffith, as may well be admitted when it is known that thirty of them make a heaped quart. They are styled the ‘ Bri Queen Strawberry,’’ and the germs were ob- tained, we learn, from the celebrated gar- jens of the Duke of Northumberland. Excursion iy CoxteMPiation —We learn that the accomplished Choir of Ryland Chapel contemplate giving an excursion some time ‘his month tothe White House. Should the ladies and gentlemen of this choir carry out t design we can anticipate for them a most isfactory entertainment. Arrorstep —Mayor Magruder has appoint- el Jas. W.

Tre Fare axp Festivar of the ladies of Trinity church, now being held at Forrest Hall, Georgetown, presents attractions, among the articles to be disposed of, rarely found at such places. Among them are two very hand- some sets of silverware, one of which was pre- sented by the congregation of St. Mary’s church, Alexandria. There is also a basket of wax flowers, manufactured by Mrs. H. Barron, which, if we are not mistaken, was & present from friends in Washington. The ex- eoution of these flo@@rs is so perfect as almost to preclude the detection of their artificial character except by the touch. These ar- ticles, thor with many others that are very y. if not otherwise disposed of, will be raffied for, presenting a rare opportunity of obtaining a prise.
