Out Of ??ghjt.
Few plays have met with the instantaneous
8ucces??accorded "Out of Sight," the attrac
tion billed for the Academy of Music on
Tfcarsday night Dec 4. The play ia plot
deals with the fortunes and misfortunes of a
young girl, wno in. obscure circumstances
suddenly finds herself the possessor of mil
lions. It points sarcastically at fortune hunt
ing nobility and snaps aristocracy. The
comedy element is furnished by a juTeaile
foster brother and the many characters the
lady meets during her travels. The piece lays
claim to some dramatic interest, and noc
|. conventional comedy complications, and is an
excellent medium for the varied display of
special accomplishments the versatile compa
ny is capable of. "Out .of Sight" has just
finished a week's engagement at the St.
I Charles Theater, New Orleans testing the
[ capacity of the house at ejrery performance.
!ia commenting upon upon the play the Tiroes
Democrat proclaims it the best play of its kind
this season. Tickets are on saie at Dr. Mc
Kagen's Drng S'we.
Miss Amy Bassel.
Messre Schwerin & Co., are tojbe congrat
ulated on the success of their theatrical enter
tainments this reason. Miss Amy Russell ap
peared before a crowded house last Thursday
evening in her much-admired comedy-drama,
"Life iu the Metropolis," 'and made a fine im
press on. .She was the star and shone high
above the. ?est. of the ladies of the troupe,
though ber support was fairly' good. She
bas a sweet voice, a litbe graceful figure, and
very charming manner. Th? Spanish dance
performed by her was a gracful and novel in
troduction, and was much admired. Squire
Winkles, of Squash Town, Connecticut, the
old matter-of-fact New England farmer, re
peatedly brought down the bouse, by exhi
bitions of his innocence and greenness in the
metropolis and tussels with the telephone.
Although the comic songs of "Jack" were
repeatedly encored, yet the squire far surpass
ed him ?d the sweetness of his voice, and
completly captivated the whole audience by
that sweet soog, he sang so well, "Hear those
Bells."

John Kingtaan vs. Chas. A. Mitchell?
Action to recover possession of personal
property?one bale of cotton.
Pacts?Plaintiff advanced Mr. Garner
Saadere for the present year to the amount of
about $250, at d agreed to pay ' up the rent
lies of said Sanders to a Mr. Allen, in con
sideration of which Mr. Sanders agreed and
did turn over the whole of his crop to plain
tiff. Plaintiff was proceeding to gather and
market same, under and by virtue of bis two
tiene, when the defendant took from Sanders
one of the bales of cotton for rent of a mule
doe him by Sanders, and produced in evidence
a letter to himself from plaintiff, at the begin
ning of the year, agreeing to let defendant's
claim for rent of mule take precedence of bis
Hen. The plaintiff stated that this was done
by bim out of courtesy, and that be would
bave paid the mule rent if defendant had ap
plied personally to htm, instead of putting
bis claims in the bands of a Trial Justice.
The case was tried before a jury, who
brought in a verdict for the plaintiff. Mr.
J. H. Earle, represented the plaintiff, J. R.
Keels, Esq., the defendant.

Mr. J. D. Craig, Su rater's oJd and reliable
furniture dealer, has rented the brick store,
corner Main and Canal Streets, as a warehouse
and is rapidly filling it with all kinds of fur
niture. With characteristic energy Mr.
Craig has gone to work to overcome the de
moralizing tSects of the fire, and feels sure of
being able now to take care of all business
which comes his way at price* as low as any
in the State. The same care and prudence
exercised by Mr. Craig in having his stock
and buildings insured, and indeed in every
business transaction in which be engages?is
displayed by him- in the selection and pur
chase of his stock ot furniture, so that it is
the experience of all who deals with him that
he sells the best articles for the money.
Mr. Craig is obliged to have more rc;;m, as
bis business bae grown with the growth of
Sumter, and he intends building a brick store
in a few months.
A First Clase Firm.
Want of space last week prevented us from
calling the attention of the public to the
advertisement of Messrs. Holman & LeMaster,
contractors and builders in this, and last
week's issue. Capt. Holman has moved all
his teams from the country to the city and
they are enabled to have all hauling done on
their own terms.
It gives us pleasure to say for Mr. LeMaster
that in all our experience with contractors in
this State and out West, be is one of the best
workmen, and the most thoroughly reliable
contractors we hare ever had any dealings
with. He bas made quite a reputation as a
workmen. Some of the specimens of hie .
work are the new stores of Mr. John Reid
and Anthony White and the inside work in
Dr. China's fine residence. He has completed
two houses for Capt. Holman and is now
building among others, a residence on the j
coiner of Cal bon and New Streets, and <

The Bridal Ball.
The brilliant wedding of Mr. L. S. Carson
and Miss Marianae Kersbaw, was scarcely
over. The happy pair, accompanied by
family, friends and attendants to the station,
had just gone off in the twilight on their
joyful journey, and the scene from the Church
was transformed to the brilliantly illuminated
hall of the Armory of the Sumter Light
Infantry. The light from the chandeliers,
shone on the polished pine walls that held the
"burnished arms of military," the plumes
and proud trophies of valor. The sheen of
the smooth floor tempted many a devotee of
terpsrchore, to tap the light fantastic in anti
cipation of the glorious glide.
The chaperonee were there, the Orchestra
was there, and the beauty and chivalry of
Sumterand adjoining counties was there?
the gathered gems in the circle of fashion and
fun. Everything went, as merrily, as hap
pily, as sweetly as the last chimes of the
marriage bells dying on tbe evening air
It was indeed a happy occasion long to be
remembered by the pleasure-loving people of
Sumter. The 4th Re'giment Band was at its
best, discoursing the sweetest music from the
temporary platform, erected in tbe ball, its
soft strains, coming like other blessings, from
above. The german was the feature of the
evening and many graceful, handsome figures
were introduced, the favors were new and
elegant, and were especially becoming to the
fair ones who were obliging enough to wear
them.
The refreshments mu3t not be forgotten,
they were daintily served and were altogether
enjoyable. Many?even those who were ao
unfortunate aa to be "stags"?staid to catch
tbe last beaming smiles of tbe merry maidens,
and to dance to tbe poetry of the sweet
variations of "Home Sweet Home."
Through the kinduess of one of the ladies
present we are enabled to give tbe costumes
worn. They were especially elegaut, and had
much to do with tbe making up of tbis beau
tiful ball.
