AMUSEMENTS.
The Richings Opera Troupe-Travlata.
In consequence ot the unavoidable detention
in Savannah of one of the members of the com"
pauy. Verdi's Opera, La Traviata, was played, in?
stead of Wallace's Maritana, by the Richings
Troupe last night. The Academy of Music was
fairly filled, and will, we hope, during the rest of
the week, be crowded from pit to dome. This is
the least that thc mellings Tronpc deserves.
The whole burden of La Traviata rests upon
thc prima donna, and it is well that accident
caused Mrs. Bernard to make her first appearance
in a role which gave full scope for the display of
her histrionic and musical talent. Thc audience
were charmed with the gay opening scene, with
its lively Brindisi, (Llhiamo.) and beforo the cur?
tain fell, at the close of the first act, Mrs. Bernard
had well nigh established her claim to popular
favor. Throughout the second act lier singing was
as brilliant as passionatc.and tlte famous duo (Vio?
letta and Alfredo) was warmly applauded, as lt
deserved to be. In the second oct, Mrs. Bernard,
keeping pace with the growing Intensity of the
dramatic situation, sang and acted with a fire
and force which have seldom been excelled. The
third act was still more fervent, and a fit crown
to the whole was the splendid sh ging and act?
ing in the last act, where Mrs. Bernard,
witli the good taste of a true artist,
displayed a pathos of manner aud purity of vo.
calization, which were all that the tragic denoue?
ment required. Mrs. Bernard is a fine actress
and an accomplished singer, and, as wc have
hinted, was londly applauded through the opera,
and saluted at its close with a storm of bravos
and a call before the curtain.
Mr. Brookhouse. the tenor of thc troupe, was a
conscientious Alfredo. Uis voice is fresh and
clear, but, now and then, slightly uncertain in
tone. This can be remedied with a little care.
Mr. Bowler, we may add, received his full share
of praise. Mr. Henry Drayton was an excellent
Germont. His singing or Di Provenza was an ar?
tistic blt or work, which came near being en?
cored.
The chorus or the troupe Ls rsr better and strong,
er than we had any reason to expect.and would do
credit to any metropolitan opera-house. A taste
of Its quality was given In the Brindisi In the first
act, but the finale of the tldrd act was thc gem or
the perrormance. The chorus was kept well In
hand by the experienced conductor, and its sing?
ing was marked by a fullness and clock-work pre?
cision, worthy of the strongest praise. In this
finale, the rich rolling basso of Mr. H. C. Peake3
(Dauphol) was particularly admired.
The orchestra played well throughout, except?
ing a slight slip in the overture.
We now repeat, what we have sall be?
fore, that the Richings Troupe ls by far
the most complete opera company which
has visited Charleston since the close of the war,
and we trust that the public will show by their
?teady attendance that they appreciate flue
music and good acting. Savannah ls very anxious
to get the Richings Company back to that thriving
city, and unless they are weil supported this week
they will probably go over to our sister city on
Monday. Next week will be a gala week for
Charleston, and we should like to have the Acad
?my open with a troupe which will make the
leisure hours of our guests and visitors pass
pleasantly aud willi profit.
To-Night thc Bohemian Girl.
As a matter or general interest we give an out
lae of the story of the opera of the Bohemian
?Irl, which will be perrormed by the Richings
iroupe to-night:
Thc action of this lyric drama commences at
;he chateau of Count Arnhelm, In Austria. The
jeasantry and retainers or the Count are making
reparations for the chase, when Thaddeus, a
Polish exile, arrives in search of shelter. Here he
mcounters a band or gipsies, who, being iuform
td that he ls pursued, conceal him. Just at this
?ime shouts of distress are heard aad Florestine,
a nephew of the Count,) rashes on, surrounded
>y huntsmen. The Count's child and her attend
in t have been attacked by an Infuriated stag In
he forest, and probably destroyed. Hearing
his, Thaddeus hastens to their relier, shoots and
His the animal, saving them from destruction,
bc Count overwhelms Thaddeus with Kratern)
Hanks, and invites him to join In the festivities
bont to take place, which Invitation he accepted,
he Count proposed as a toast, "Health and long
fe to the Emperor," which Thaddeus refused to
onor." The assembled guests became Infuriated
nd threatened his life. At this moment, Devils
oof returned and took his part, but was arrested
nd carried into the castle, from which he short
r afterwards managed to escape, taking with
Im the Count's infant daughter, Arline. Every -
ody hastens in search or the fngitlve; lie ls seen
earing the child across a dangerous precipice,
1 the unhappy father sinks in despair as thc
rst act ends. Twelve years are supposed to
lapse, and we are transported to the City of
resburg, In the suburbs or which the gipsies
re encamped. In whose tents dwells the
ount's daughter, now a woman. Thad?
eus, who has joined the tribe, became
namorcd or ber, telling her lt was ht that saved
er lire in Inrancy, but conceals the secret or lier
lrth. Arline conresses her love for him, and
tey are betrothed according to the custom of
ie gipsies. A fair ls In progress In the city, and
tither go the gipsies, where they meet Count
rnhclm, now an old man. His nephew calls his
ttention to Arliue, whose beauty has fascinated
im. While looking at her, ue perceives that she
os around her neck a medallion, which had been
:olen from him by Dcvilshoof and his compan
ins. He charges her with having stolen it, and
ae is arrested and brought before the Count for
rial. Thc latter perceives the mark left by the
round Indicted by thc deer. He asks Its orl
ln. She repeats the story ns repeated to her
y Thaddeus. The Conut recognizes her as
ls daughter, and the act ends with a fine fab?
ian. In the third act we discover Arline rc
torcd to her raak ana home, but the change
oes not diminish her love for Thaddeus. Every
bstacle ls thrown In the way to prevent a meet
ig. Here wc find that the glpsey qneen, who
Iso loves Thaddeus, lias been plotting against
irllne. But Thaddeus tells his story lo the count,
ruo lu his gratitude bestows his child upon him.
'he glpsey queen Induces one or her tribe to fire
it Thaddeus as ho was embracing Arline. The
mltet, however, missed him and killed Devllshoor,
rho ls standing by. The lovers are united, and,
s nsual In such cases, all ends happily.

nortem examination showed that heart disease
lad caused her death, and a verdict was rendered

TUE LATE HONORABLE RICHARD YSADON.
Mr. Yeadon was born In Charleston October 23,
1802, and was the only son of Colonel Richard
Yeadon. He graduated wit h honor at the South
Carolina College, and commenced the study of
law under B. F. Hunt, Esq. In 1830 he commenc?
ed writing for the Charleston Courier, and at?
tracted considerable attention by his vigorous
style. The late A. S. Willlngton was so well satis
fled with thc merits of thc editorials, that lu 1833
Mr. Yeadon became a partner In thc Courier,
Arm. About the year 1840 Mr. Yeadon was elect?
ed to the General Assembly, and until the war
occupied a leading position In the House, having
been re-elected ror successive terms. His legal
attainments soon caused him to take a front rank
among the members of the bar, and this position
was retained to the last moments of his public
life. At thc late session or the Court of Common
Pleas, Mr. Yeadon appeared as defendant's attor?
ney, in the case of Wm. Whaley ada. Hugh
Mccrea, an action brought by the plaintiff
against the defendant as a stockholder of thc
Farmers' and Exchange Bank. H ls argument was
one of the clearest and most conclusive ever de?
livered, and elicited the attention and admiration
of the members of the .???.. Mr. Yon.ion waa
then suircrlng from the disease that finally sapped 1
the foundation or his life, ami brought his labors
tota close.
Having acquired a competence early In hts 1
career, he never withheld his mite, but his chari?
ties were given with a willing hand, and the '
donors name withheld wherever lt was possible. 1
He took a leading position in the various public '
socitlcs, and was president or the Fellowship tor 1
a numberer years. Although the closing years of '
his life were enfeeoled by disease, his mind retain?
ed its nristine vigor, and one or his last actions
was an earnest effort to raise the rands necessary i
to rebuild the Circular Church, where his ramUy 1
had worshipped tor several previous generations. <
His death was not unexpected, and at 5 o'clock i
yesterday afternoon he passed from time to cter- !
nlty. Thc mournful Intelligence was soon made t
public, and the body visited last night by a num- ]
ber of friends. The obsequies will take place this I
afternoon at halr-past 4 o'clock, at the Central i
Presbyterian Church. I

A OSE AT WORK.
What Energy and Perseverance wHl
Accomplish-A Visit to Russell's Manu?
factory.
Among the many improvements in thc city,
which we have been called upon to notice, there
has not been one since the war, ora private
character, that will be or more benefit to the
city, than the steam sash, blind and door manu?
factory recently completed by Mr. W. p. Russell,
on Hasel, near East Bay street,
Nineteen years ago Mr. Russell commenced the
business he is now engaged in, on the same spot.
Ten years later, the Are which swept from river
. to river, known as "the great fire of 1881," origi?
nated by an accident In his shop, and destroyed
all of his tools, materials, Ac. Nothing daunted,
however, he resumed work shortly afterward, In
a room In the Phoenix Iron Works building.
Since the war, Mr. Russell determined to rebuild,
the result of which determination ls a large man?
ufactory, supplied with the best machinery now
In use, and all driven by steam.
THE FIRST STORT.
On the first floor of the main building, which ls
three stories high and forty reet wide by eighty
feet long, arc the office or the proprietor, several
pieces or machinery, or which more hereafter, and
a thirty-horse power engine manufactured at the
Phoenix Iron Works. This engine, driving nine?
teen pieces or machinery, ls a model or simplicity,
strength and heanty. The boiler ls out in the
ynrd, enclosed within brick walls, with tile roor
and no windows. It Is red by machinery which
draws cold water from an artesian well and
sends lt hoi Into thc boiler. By the simple turn?
ing of a crank water can also be drawn from
the cistern. Thc most noticeable piece or ma?
chinery on this floor ls tho Russ Monitor Mould?
ing Machine ror cornices, Ac, only Tour or which
are in use in the United States. A rough plank
will be put in the machine and when it comes out
ls moulded to suit-either or the largest pattern,
medium or the smallest size, the latter being no
larger than an ordinary lead pencil. There are
one hundred and fourteen patterns of moulding,
all of which are made in .this shop. Near the
moulding machine are two lathes (made lu the
shop,) large and small size, by which anything of
wood, from a small banister rall to a column two
feet in diameter and twenty reet long, can be
turned. A circular saw tor ripping out planks
ror the moulding machine completes thc machi?
nery on this floor.
THE SECOND FLOOR
is devoted to machinery especially adapted to
the making of blinds, doors and sashes. The
first piece the visitor comes to ls Tor making blind
slats. A rough piece or wood Ls inserted, and, in
a moment, comes out planed smoothly on both
sides, and the edges beaded. The piece ls now
long enough lor four slats. R ls taken to an ad?
jacent machine, and, at one stroke, the slats are
cut the required length, and thc pivot also cut
on both ends. Now the slats are ready for the
blind. *
It Is generally known that the slats In the up.
per portion ora blind are inserted in grooves, and
are stationary, while those in the lower part are
on pivots, and can be turned at will. Here there
ls a machine for cutting the grooves for the sta?
tionary slats, and another cuts the holes for the
pivot slats. Still another machine mortises to
any desired depth, width or length. Another
machine does the tenoning, 1. e., cuts the tongue
of any size desired to flt io thc mortises. A small
scroll saw, under the hands or a skilful work?
man, such as Mr. Russell employs, ls well worthy
or noting. Scrolls or any design can be sawed
out in a moment. During our visit, Mr. Russell
amused himself and the visitors by cutting wood
lutoall sorts or fantastical shapes. There are one
or two circular saws for ripping out wood for the
frames of doors, sashes and blinds. When lt ls
known that fifty pair of blinds can be turned out
lu one day, that most of the machinery can cut
out one hundred slats, or cut one hundred ton?
nons or mortices while one wa3 being done in
the old way by hand, the advantage of thh, ma?
chinery, aad thc benefits of such an establish?
ment, may be readily conceived.
THE THIRD STORV
iS Used .IS a store roo,,., ia, --mei, ia etorcil nie
work or thc establishment. All descriptions or
moulding, scroll, sash, blind and door work arc
io be round here, and will compare favorably
with any work of the kind made elsewhere. Our
citizens need no assurance of the truth of this as?
sertion, for everywhere throughout thc city are
to be seen specimens of Mr. Russell's manufac?
ture. Mr. Russell also receives large orders from
the Interior or this aud the adjoining States.
TUE OTUER BUILDING.
Having finished an inspection of the main
wilding, we will go to the other and lesser one.
lt ls f uc story in height, thirty feet wide and
sixty feet long. In lt ls a tonguelng and grooving
nacl: nc, one of the largest in use In thc United
States. It cuts rapidly, and at the same time, a
:ongue on ono edge, a groove on the other and
planes both sides. This tongued and grooved plank
s used for flooring and' celling. Planks of all
ivldths, from thirty to one and a half Inches can
i?e tongued and grooved.'Another planing ma?
rline smoothly and truly planes any sized tim
Dcr.rrotn twenty-four Inches to three-eighths or an
nch In thickness. Still another machine, known
is the seir-reedlng reslittlng saw, the only one In
ase lu South Carolina, ls acre. Its chler use ls for
making weather-boarding. Thc usual way to
treather-hoard ls to take planks oran Inch in thick
icss and lap one over thc other, but this method
lid net make the covering as close and solid as
was desired. By this machine, a board or the
usual thickness is slit Into two pieces, In such a
way that when they are placed on a house, over?
lapping one another, they lay very close, and
make, by far, a much better weather-boarding.
This machine also cuts out backs for picture
frames, of any size and thickness, from one
eighth of an Inch thick and twenty-eight inches
Wi<l'-\
rnOTBCTION FROM FIRE.
What danger there must be from fire, is a most
natural thought of all who visit this manufactory
before they become aware of the precautions
which have been taken to prevent such a calam?
ity. We doubt If any other building lu the city
is as well protected agalust fire. Thc first things
the visitor notices are huge placards, warning
him that '?smoking Is prohibited." Everywhere
throughout the buildings are stands on which are
several large buckets always Ulled with salt
water. Underneath the first floor ls a cistern
twenty feet wide by eighty feet long, capable of
containing twenty-live thousand gallons or water,
and now has twenty-two thousand gallons m it,
from which In case of fire, water can be gotten by
mean sof the pumps In sn trident quantities to pre?
vent thc spreading ot flames. All around the
factory are the docks convenient Ter usc or the
eBglnes. The only fire used anywhere near the
manufactory ls that which makes the steam, and
lt is so well protected, that it ls Impossible for fire
from it to be communicated to thc blindings. In
most shops the glue used Is heated by Ure, but so
careful ls Mr. Russell that he has lt warmed by
steam.
MISCELLANEOUS REMARKS.
One would expect to sse a great many planes,
chisels, Ac, where so much carpentering ls done;
but no, nothing or thc kind Ls observed. The ma?
chinery ls so complete, and does thc work so
thoroughly, that it ls very seldom a plane is
used. If Mr. R. could get a raachlue to put the
various pieces together after they leave the other
machines, he could put wood under them, start
the engine, lock up the establishment, go off and
spend the day, return the next morning, lind the
machinery still at work turning out railings, col?
umns, mouldings.scroll-work.sashes.blinds.doors,
flooring and weather boarding, while lying aboat
would be enough or the articles completed to lill
thc henviest or orders.
Within a few feet of and In rear of the builllngs
ls the ralmetto dock, In which ls kept the timber
or the establishment, and thus resolving the bene?
fit or salt water seasoning.
It ls with pleasure that we can record the busl
niss success or Mr. Russell, although it is nothing
more than was to be expected, A man or his en?
terprise, practical knowledge and untiring ener?
gy cannot fail to succeed.
