Democrat. “LOCAL MATTERS, eececaal Aevada ennio Pan-TEC-NA-THEC-A.—This splendid pano. ramic exhibition opened at the Theater last evening, and will remain in town five more nights. It is the finest exhibition of the kind we ever saw, and the most casual observer will . yronounce the paintings the work of an accomplished artist. The exhibition is divided into . five sections, in each of which is shown some ten or twelve paintings. Among the most striking objects of interest exhibited, are views of . the National Capitol at Washington, including . the Senate Chamber and Hall of Representa. tives, the President’s House, the East Room, and the various public buildings, while the different views of Niagara Falls, the gorgeous scenery of the Mammoth Cave, the ruins of. Pompei, and eruption of Vesuvius, excel any thing we should have supposed could be represented on canvas. Mr. Morrison, the proprietor, has adapted a novel system of advertising. At the conclusion of the exhibition, he distributed thirty or forty presents, valued at from one to twenty dollars each, to different . persons present, on condition that each should tell from two to fifteen persons of the exhibi. tion. A similar lot of presents will be distrib. uted to-night, together with a hunting-case sil. ver lever watch, valued at $35. There was a) tolerably fair audisnce yesterday evening, and . we may expect a rush to-night. FirgMen’s BaLi.—Pennsylvania Fire Co. No.2, have made all the necessary arrangements, and will issue tickets of invitation in a few days to their seeond anniversary ball, to come off at Temperance Hall, December 24th —Christmas Eve. Nothing that can be done toinsure the pleasure and comfort of those who attend will be neglected, and as the object of the ball is to raise money to pay off the indebtedness incurred by the company in the erection of their house, we trust that our citizens will manifest their usual liberality on this occasion. Covrt or Serssions.—The trial of John . Whittage, on Tuesday, for assault with intent to murder, resulted in his conviction as charged in the indictment. His bail was fixed at $2,000, but not being able to give it he was committed to jail to await his sentence. The applieation for a new trial, in the case of Ah . Sing, convicted of grand larceny, was argued yesterday, and denied. The court will meet again to-morrow, having adjourned over to-day on account of Thanksgiving. THe MEANING.—Many inquiries are made, and consideracle curiosity has been excited as . to the meaning of the term “‘pan-tec-na-thec-a.” Mr. Morrison, the proprietor of the panorama bearing this imposing name, informs us that it . isa compound of three Greek words, meaning . literally, ‘‘the whole art in a box.” Thus—pan (the whole) teena (art) theea (in a box). The . name, Of course, was adopted to attract attention, THANKsGIviING.—The ministers of the Bap. tist, Methodist, Congregational, and Episcopal churches, have held Thanksgiving services today, at their several places of worship. Some . of the business houses in townare closed, while the proprietors and ataches are engaged in such pious occupations as playing cribbage, pool, shooting for turkeys, hunting, etc. Official business is also suspend ed. .
