--All save one of the actors at the theatre are foreigners, and not, therefore, liable to militia duty. They have, however, determined to organize in military style and hold themselves in readiness to do their part towards expelling the invader. Taken all together, the employees of the concern would make quite a respectable company. No captain has yet been chosen, but the representatives of mimic life would not have to go far to find a man bred to the profession of arms willing to be their leader. Professor Hewitt, albeit more used of late years to the flow of musical numbers than the clash of resounding arms, is a graduate of the West Point Military Academy, and would be but too happy to don the nor of a son of Mars.
