THEATRE.—Otr readers will be pleased to learn that the Trustees of the Theatre have given the
contract for the painting the Scenery to an Artist of San Francisco, who will have it finished in three
weeks. The contract was let on Thursday last. No doubt as soon as the Theatre is completed we shall be
favored with some one of the companies from the Bay. The people of this burg have been so long without
a place of amusement, that the opening of the Theatre, with a good company, would be refreshing. [On the
15th the Transcript said the artist was Mr. [Charles] Campbell, who had painted the panorama of Washoe
and California. The drop curtain would be painted first. ]

WE understand that Wm. J. Allport, a tip-top man, is building a livery stable at Red Dog. He intends

stable would pay well.
