THE TESTIMONIAL BENFTIT offered Manager
Ford by the citizens of Charleston, took place at
the Academy of Music last night. The free list
was enilrely suspended, but theje was not a
vacant seat in the house, and standing room was
at jj premium. Encouraged by the presence of
an audience remarkable in character as well as
la numbers, thc company exerted themselves to
the utmost, making the performance or "Much
Ado About Nothing" brilliantly successful. Miss
Eldridge, Mr. Warner and Mr. Fannln, fairly
outdid themselves, and well deserved all . the
applause lavishly bestowed upon then?.
When the curtain fell Mr. Ford was londly call
ed Tor, and, iu the absence or that gentleman,
Mr. II. H. Wood caine bet?re the footlights, and
tn a graceful little speech, conveyed to the audi
ence Mr. Ford's thanks, and the pleasing intelli?
gence that he had engaged the Academy or Music
until the 1st or May.
"TUE CROPS OK 18GD."-The Southern Farm?
er, an agricultural magazine published at Mem
phis, says: "Suggestions as to our future and
inferences from the past, should all have a share
or our thoughts, and the prudent will strive to
<lraw therefrom, like the 'busy bec,' honey to
store up Tor ruturC usc. Not having the exact
figures ot a totality, wc cannot speak with cer?
tainty, but beginning at horneas to facts: The
cotton crop here-seed planted May 20, with
Rhode's phosphate, used say 250 pc undi per acre
gave blooms the 20th July, and cotton to pick as
soon as the land in cotton nearest us, with same
seed, although planted one month earlier, and
our crop yielding more, from say four or five
acres, than other land nearest us from twelve to
fourteen acres. Next, where phosphate was used,
absolute weight ivy. to 7J?. Still higher up the
country 'full three times' as much from phos?
phate. The fact is to be noticed that not only is
product increased, but earlier maturing.-'
TUE LILA AND ZOE TROUPE.-The combi?
nation of acrobats, gymnasts, pantomimes, Ac,
that was presented at the Hibernian Hall last
night, rivalled any performance of a similar
oharacter that has ever been attempted in this
city. The llanlous were thrown completely In
thc shade, and the audience testified their appre?
ciation of the daring feats or strength, and agility
by repeated applause. The programme was di?
versified with music, songs, juggling, and won?
derful displays of agility, in which the performers
proved to the spectators that their bodies were
more elastic than India rubber. The troupe com?
bines the highest talent In their line, though thc
prominent characters arc undoubtedly the two
female gymnasts, or as they are appropriately
called, the "Queens of thc Air." -They are from
La Belle France, and have studied their profes?
sion In the Parisian theatres. The teria! night is
one of the most daring feats that has ever been
attempted, and when lt ls remembered that the
performers are women, an increased zest ls add
<ed to the interest that ls reit In tho perilous leaps
through space. The Hibernian Hall was admira?
bly arranged ror thc performance, and the two
principal actors seemed perfectly at home on the
trapeze, and swung from their dizzy
perches with the ntraost nonchalance.
Mons. DeLave, Codona, Delbra, and Signor
Martinez, exhibited a wonderful confidence in
their ability to do whatever they attempted, and
the result In each Instance proved that their bo?
dies were In perrect control. The female gymnasts
were undobtedly the stars: but the entire peridr
m-vjee is one rarely witnessed, and should bc at?
tended by every one who desires to pass a pleas?
ant hour. The Hibernian Hall ls well adapted for
amusements, and the theatrical arrangement or
the stage adds greatly to the performance. A
different programme will be presented each
evening.
MANAGER J. T. FORD.
Presentation of a Testimonial.
After the performance at the Academy ofMu
sic last night, a number of gentlemen met by ap?
pointment at thc Charleston Hotel, ami presented
Manager John T. Ford, af Baltimore, a lasting
and substantial testimonial of thc regard of our
citizens. This came in thc shape of a handsome
gold watch, with massive gold chain, the watch
being suitably engraved and inscribed. The pre?
sentation was made by Major Lamb Buist, who
said:
Hr. Ford-At thc request of a large number of
my fellow-citizens representing varied iutcrest.
I have the honor to present you this beautiful and
useful testimonial. >
1 am deputed to present it in token of their ap?
preciation of y our devotion in thc laudable efforts
you have made to enhance their pleasures and
promote the best interest of the city of their af
? ec I lons. You came among us with an estab?
lished reputation, and now that our fellow -citi?
zens have had thc opportunity of a personal in?
tercourse with you, and a practical illustration of
your ability to reline and elevate the standard of
one of their most intellectual sources of amuse?
ment, they feel that they cannot permit the sea?
son to pass without some substantial recognition
of their approbation and esteem, and they have
requested me to present it at the close of the eve?
ning, when thc voice of approval of our people
has been so signally manifested in your behalf In
that elegant temple of art, erected by thc liber?
ality and enterprise of your esteemed proprietor,
Mr. Chadwick.
It seems hardly necessary that I should say your
efforts have been of benctlt to our city, commer?
cially and otherwise.
You came among us a citizen of Baltimore, and
readily thereby you were accorded a mott natter?
ing welcome. Thc hospitality and nobility o? the
people of that city have engendered feelings of
esteem and a itv ct ion which lind response in thc
hearts of those of our cherished State. There is a
tie which binds them together in bonds of com?
mon union, and when they reflect that it ivas
thrdugh the liberality, high sense of justice and
benevolence of individuals like yourself that thc
suffering ol many or their citizens in the
day or their greatest need were alleviated,
how can they otbeSrise than congratulate
themselves that the present opportunity is theirs?
Go on, slr. In the work to which you have dedi?
cated your energies-that or purifying, relining
and elevating the standard of the drama. May
we be permitted to express thc hope that others
will follow your example, and that all will, like
yourself, with determination and dignity, main?
tain and vindicate their rights under the constitu?
tion and the laws.
Manager Ford, who spoke with an unaffected
pathos, which touched on lils hearers, returned
his thanks in these words:
Gentlemen-The scenes of to-night are to meal
most bewildering. The thronged house or beau?
tiful ladies and elegant gentlemen at the Acad?
emy, the eloquent, feeling, and lattering address
to which I have just listened, this magnificent
present, and I a stranger, who, less than sixty
days, came here unknown, save by a few friends
of thc earliest years or my manhood-I can scarce?
ly realiae Its reality.
If I have pleased Charleston, my ambition ls
complete. The exalted and acknowledged intel?
lectual taste of Its people is so proverbial as to
make success indeed "a consummation de?
voutly to be wished."
For your kind words about Baltimore, allow me
specially to thank you, and to say that it I was
not her citizen, lt would be my heart's fond de?
sire to live and die a citizen of Charleston.
I will cherish your gilt, gentlemen, while I live,
and hand lt to my son when I go over to thc ma?
jority, and bid him to watch for every opportun!
ty of appreciation.
I am glad to say I intend to remain among vou
for several months. Your enterprising and libe?
ral tel low-citizen, Mr. Chadwick, has offered rae 1
the Academy on terms both generous and equita?
ble, and I have arranged to manage lt for the
next three months. i
I again thank you, sir, for your graceful and l
most pleasant remarks, and you, gentlemen, for 1
your valuable girt. I
When the presentation speeches were over, thc
company adjourned to thc spacious dining-room, I
where the health of Mr. John Chadwick, the pro- i
prletor or the Academy or Music, was proposed I
t?y Manager Ford, and drunk most heartily in I
Dumpers of champagne. Colonel Edle, the press 1
md thc banks were toasted in succession, and '
mon arter the company separated. i
Thc manner of the presentation made it a high- i
y pleasant affair. There was no fuss or parade. <
it was reit that there was due to Manager Ford a i
asting mark of our esteem, and the gentlemen i
rho took the matter In charge, carried out their i
rarpose with a qniet earnestness and delicacy 1
vhich must have been eminently gratifying to
he fortunate recipient, all whose laurels are well
von, well borne and well deserved. 1

KING H EX RT ir.
First Appraram- of James H. Hackett.
To-night Mr. Jamos H. Hackett will appear
at the Academy of Music as "Falstaff" in The
First Part of King Henry IV. The action of this
play begins with the sudden incursion of Jjie
Welch under Owen Glendower, and ends, in the
acting edition, with the Itattlc of Shrewsbury and
death of narry Hotspur. In this play the char?
acters of Prince Hal and Hotspur are happily con?
trasted, but al! the amiability and attractiveness
is certainly on the side of the Prince. However
familiar he makes himself with bad company, wc
can never mistake him Tor one of them, and his
wildest freaks appear merely as witty tricks; for
when thc occasion wakes him out of his unruly
levity, he distinguishes himself without effort in
the most chivalrous guise. Percy is rude, arro?
gant and obstinate, but, withal, a noble youth.
. From thc events or the Welch rebellion rise all
thc tragic Incidents of thc drama, but these
would be inadequate to fill thc stage if thc serious
events were not interrupted by a comedy, which
is enriched from time to time with new figures,
and which comes to its catastrophe when Henry V
banishes the companions of his youthful ex?
cesses, who lind promised themselves a rich har.
vest from his-kingly favor. In this comedy with?
in a tragedy are those joyous "Minions of the
Moon'1-Poins, Polo, Gadshlll, Bardolph and Fal?
staff, or Falstaff-"Fat Jack" - Schlegel, thc
eminent dramatic critic, says:
Falstaff ls the crown or Shakespeare's comic in?
vention. He has, without exhausting himself,
continued this character throughout three plays,
and exhibited him in every variety or situation;
the llgure Is drawn so definitely and individually,
thatevtu to the mere reader lt conveys the clear
impression of personal acquaintance. Falstaff is
thc most agreeable and entertaining knave that
ever was portrayed. His contemptible qualities
are not disguised-old, lecherous, and dissolute;
corpulent beyond measure, ami always intent
upon cherishing his body with eating, drinking
and sleeping; constantly In debt, and anything
but conscientious lu his choice of means by which
money Is to be raised; a cowardly soldier, and a
Iring braggart; a natterer ol his friends before
tucir face, and a satirist behind their backs; and
yet we are never disgusted with him. We see
that his lender care of hiiuscir is without any
mixture or malice towards others; he wilt only
not bc disturbed in the pleasant repose or his sen?
suality, and this he obtains through the activity
or his understanding. Always on the alert, and
good-humored, ever ready to crack jokes on oth?
ers, and to enter into those or which he ls himself
Hie subject, so that he justly boasts he ls not only
witty hlmseir, but the cause of wit in others, he ls
an admirable companion for youthful Idleness and
levity. Under a helpless exterior, he couccals an
extremely acute mind; he has always at oom
maud some dexterous turn whenever any or his
free joke?begin to give displeasure; he is shrewd
in his distinctions between those whose favor he
has to win and those over whom he may assume
a familiar authority. He ls so convinced that the
part which he plays can only pass under the cloak
of wit, that even when alono he ls never alto?
gether serious, but elves the drollest coloring to
hts love intrigues, lils intercourse with others, and
to his own sensual philosophy. Witness lils In?
imitable soliloquies on honor, on thc influence of
wine on bravery, his descriptions or thc beggarly
vagabonds whom he enlisted, ol Justice Shallow,
.Vc. Falstaff has about him a whole court or
amusing caricatures, who by turns make their
appearance, without ever throwing him into the
shade. The adventure In which thc prince, under
thc disguise or a robber, compels him to give up
thc spoil which he had Just taken; thc scene
where thc two act the part of the Klug and Prince;
Falstaff's behavior In the field, his mode of rais?
ins recruits, his patronage of Justice Shallow,
which afterwards takes such an unfortunate
turn-alt this lunns a scries or characteristic
scenes or thc most original description, full of
pleasantry, and replete with nice and Ingenious
observations, such as could only lind a place In
historical play like the present.
Mr. Hackett is the one great "Falstaff" of our
time. Veteran Charlcstouians will perhaps re
inemher that the same gentleman, more than
thirty years ago, played "Falstaff" at the o;,i thea?
tre In Broad street, and at least twenty years ago
played a short engagement at the Meeting street
ihcatre. Even then he drew the wholo city in his
train. Kow bets mellowed and ripened by expe?
rience and time, and enjoys a cosmopolitan rcpu
latlou. Good wine needs no bush; but we may
tdd thal in order to play a shorl engagement In
his city, Mr. Hackett brought to a close an eml
?cntly successful season at Booth's Theatre,
s'cw York.

such ls dyspepsia. The stomach and the brain
ire too intimately allied for the one to surfer wlth
>ut the other, so that dyspepsia and despondency
ire Inseparable, it may be added, too, that lrrl
ation of the stomach is almost Invariably accom?
panied by irritation or the temper.
The Invigorating and tranquilizing operation or
EIOSTETTER'S BITTERS ls most powerfully de?
veloped In cases or Indigestion. Thc first effect or
his agreeable tonic is comforting and encourag
ng. A mild glow pervades the system, the
mronic uneasiness in the region or the stomach
s lessened, and thc nervous restlessness which
?haractcrlzcs the disease is abated. This Improve
neut is not trausient. It ls not succeeded by the
.cturu ol the old symptoms with superadded
'orce, as is always thc case when unmcdlcated
?timulants are given for the complaint. Each
lose seems to impart a permanent accession ol
icalthrul invigoration. But this is not all. The
iperlcnt and nuti-bllious properties of the prepar
itlon arc scarcely secondary in importance to its
.onie virtues. If there is an overflow or bile thc
secretion ls soon brought within proper limbs,
ind If thc, biliary organ is Inert and torpid lt ls
oncd and regulated. The effect upon the dis?
charging organs Is equally salutary, and in cases
if constipation the cathartic action is just suill
iient to produce the desired result gradually and
ivithout pain. The BITTERS also promote healthy
evaporation from thc surface, which ls partlcu
arly desirable at this season when sudden spells
if raw, unpleasant weather arc apt to check the
natural perspiration and produce congestion or
the liver, coughs and colds. The best safeguard
igainst all diseases is bodily vigor, and this the
;reat Vegetable Restorative essentially promotes.

SORGO SUGAR AND REFINED
SYRUP.
Wc would Invite the attention or Planters to
thc consideration or some ur thc advantages in
the cultivation or SORGO as a Crop, which are,
the small amount or labor; the hardy character
or thc plant In its ability to endure, without ma?
terial Injury, both drought and wet; Its freedom
from thc attack of worms; Its carly maturing,
and the fact that thc Seed and every part of the
plaut ts of great value.
In consequence of the imperfect, method
hitherto adopted in prcpartug the Juice or this
Cane, there has arisen a prejudice, and the belier
that Sugar could not be produced, but only a very
InTerlor Syrup. But, by the discovery or the
Southern Process, these opinions have been com?
pletely reversed In the minds or all those who
have examined and tested this process, as they
realize that not only pure Syrup, superior to the
best Chemical Syrups or the Refineries, Is pro?
duced, but also Sy rup equal to the best New Or?
leans, In such quantity, as to make lt without
doubt, the must profitable crop that cnn be plant?
ed. Of these facts abundant evidence can bc
shown.
Any information on this subject cnn bc obtain?
ed by applying to Mr. F. G. CART, Charleston, S.

Agent, and who will bc prepared to furnish pure
