The Thespian family,

or Queen Sisters, of Charleston, S. C., have played four nights at the Theatre, and have fully sustained the high character given them by the press of Charleston, Savannah, and Augusta. Their new pieces--"Vigilance Committee" and "Little Blanche" --are a decided success. This evening is their benefit, and little Fanny, the wonderful juvenile elocutionist, will speak her celebrated patriotic address and sing the Marseilles Hymn. This family commenced their acting for the soldiers' benefit, and have donated $2,440 for their relief, and will continue to help them until the war is over.
