The rendition of _‘‘Searehing for’ the Slain,’’ by Miss Livingstone, is es‘pecially deserving of commendation, on account of the vividness of the picture she drew, and the extremely pathetic quality of her acting, The breathless utteation of the audience was rivited upon the stage asif they there beheld the carnageof the battle field, and the maniac mether pouriug forth her woe over the dead ie of the som and wife ~~Iirs; barowe--was intensely effect< me in the dagger scene from Macbeth and poigon scene from Romeo and Juliet, She invested ‘her conceptions with a passion and fire that drew from the audiéuce repeated apThis Aadie’s forte is evidently tragic acting, although her humorous renderings were by no means undeserving of the praise ¢ was accorded them.

Latterly Bascom had not been in good health. . A few days since he returoed from Pioche, Nevada, and last evening called upon Miss Mason at’ ber home. He had previously< visited a few times, not more than the generality of her: friends and acquaintances. She bad never exhibited the slightest preference for his society, bat; he,it seems, became infatuated with her, and his object in going to see her last night was to learn his fate from her lips. At about the hour of eleven he unbosomed himself, ending by asking her to marry him. She laughed at his outburst, mot dreaming that he} was so deeply in earnest, and renever chérished a lover’s feeling for him, neither had she given any encouragement that would cause him to believe otherwise. Bascom turned deathly pale, and looking her full in the face remarked that she had given bim his death blow, or words to that effect, and thén with a rapid movement drew a revelver, and_placing the muzzle to the left side of the head just above the ear, pulled the trigger and sent the bullet crasbingthrough his brain and then fell -for-ward inthe agonies of death.

At about the hour of eleven he unbosomed himself, ending by asking her to marry him. She laughed at his outburst, mot dreaming that he} was so deeply in earnest, and renever chérished a lover’s feeling for him, neither had she given any encouragement that would cause him to believe otherwise. Bascom turned deathly pale, and looking her full in the face remarked that she had given bim his death blow, or words to that effect, and thén with a rapid movement drew a revelver, and_placing the muzzle to the left side of the head just above the ear, pulled the trigger and sent the bullet crasbingthrough his brain and then fell -for-ward inthe agonies of death.
