Ths W AsniHOTOh Grits This old and popular military company will take part in the parade on Monday next, under the command of Lieutenant F. W. Ralston. The Greys have es tablished a elaim upon the popular favor by their patriotic services since me war began. In September, 18*2, when the State was invaded, they were among the first to go to the border. When Lee made bis great invasion last summer, they again went into the field and served for two months. There are now over one hundred members of. the company commissioned officers In the United Slates service; the excellent school of practice which the members enjoy in the com pany making them admirably qualified for the duties of officers: and the mere fact of applicants for commissions being members of me Washington Greys is a recommendation with the military authorities. SHOtKJK© StfioiD*—Mrs. Ellen Springfield, residing at No. S3IQ Hamilton street, committed suicide, yesterday, by cutting Her throat yrith a tase knife. Sbe cut out a piece of the flesh trith the knife, and as this piece hung by the skin she clipped it off with a pair of scissors. She was token to the Pennsylvania Hospital and died in a fewkours. The deceased washbout 50 years of age. Her only son is in the army. Another son was drowned some time since, and her daughter was burned to death. For two or three days .past she has been in a melancholy mood. She was expecting money from her son, and being disap pointed, was in rather destitute circumstances. She lived alone in a room, and there was neither lire nor food. Tim Surysßum Rij-pgkss in Cairo.—The c&U foT aid for this most helpless class of sufferers lromthewar, grows more and more pressing.

On Monday Eext smother anniversary of the birthday of the • ‘Father of his Country’ ’ will be observed, and, if we may judge from tbs pro gramme of proceedings published by authority of the commanding officer at this post. General Ferry, the display will he one of unusual dimensions and brilliancy. Not only will onr eitiaen soldiery parade, and many of them have participated to some extent in the exciting and sanguinary scenes incident to the war,tbut the Tele ran Philadelphia regiments will also the present, thus adding un precedented etlat to the occasion. Many of these participants will present a more than usually pleasing and attractive appearanee, and wherever such a contrast may be noticed, the ob servers maybe convinced that their uniforms have been purchased from ~Wutavaksr & Brown, S. E. corner or Sixth ixd Markbt. Such is the extent of their establishment, and the number of their employes', that they are enabled to supply the soldier without delay to the civilian, and as * and cheapness’ 2 is’their motto, it is not surprising there is such a demand for goods of their make.

Ttnitr JfeUt tnd tiu ConsiituiionaHty ef a* Mi of Conerni of Mb. St, ISOA ' A cnoorn rent not a debt. This morning, m the District Court and Common p !f“’ decision* were rendered touching the Oon sutntiouality of the net of February as, 1832, an theming the issue of legal tend.r notis and the question whether a ground rent i* a debt. In the Common Plea* the case originated in thi* wise: Bobert Patterson, being the ovmer of two sepa rat* lots of ground, each of which is subject touts payment of an annual ground rent, tendered to ihe respondents, who, as trustees, are the owners of the rents reserved out of said lots of ground. 01 ,h ® P nn *>pal thereof, andhatprays! that the respondents may be required to mate con veyance of the same to him, so that they shall merge and be forever extinguished. .. T “* j C l. wa£ made in the paper currency of th* United States, issued under ’the authority of the act of Cengre»s_ of the 11th of July, 1882, which currency, by the terms of *aid act, is made a le°al Under, for all debts, public and private, except dnliss on imports and interest on the public debt. Tim rents in question were, by the covenants con tained in the deeds, by which they were created, made extinguuhable, on the payment.to the grantor hie heir* and assigns, cf a specified number of dollars, lawful silver money of th# United States, ‘ ,^! c.P ree, nl legal standard,fineness and weight.’ ’ This raised the question: Is a ground TBnt a Mi ?- as the paper currency is a legal tender for debt and for nothing else. Judge Allison, on de livering the opinion of the Court, decides that a ground rent ie not a debt, and for thi* Teasou tbe Court declined to consider th* question of the con stitutionality of the act of July llth, 1862. In the District Court, in a case raising directly tbe constitutionality of the act of Congress of Fehi rcary 25, 186-2, Judge* Share and Stroud delivered opinions affirming its constitutionality, while Judge Sharswood read a dissenting opinion. An the opinions were lengthy and discussed tho sub jeet very fully. AMUSEMENTS. Gsrxax Opbba.—llotow’s beautiful opera of StroMla is to be performed at three o’clock this afternoon at the Academy of Musie. For Monday eyeniug a great novelty is announced. Weber’s grand opera of Glsren, which we think has never been played in America, is to be produced, with all the artists in the cast. This opera was written for th* Covent Garden Theatre in London, and was produced, under Weber’s own direction, on the 12th of April, 1825. Miss Faton—afterwards Mrs. Wood—and Braham.the great English tenor, played the principal pans. Its success was im mense. It was Weber’s last opera, for his health failed soon alter its production, and he died m the lollowmg year, in London. The overture is well known to our musical public, and all of the music is regarded as well worthy of the composer of Dir Trtyuhklz. Tbb Chestnut.—The audience at the Chestnut laet evening forgot the coldness of the weather in the genial company of ‘*The Fine Old English Gentleman.” Mr. Harry Pearaon’stransfenna lion lroxzx Hi* L&iic&shire lad to th* old innira vva3 as complete as it was sudden, and all who wit nessed the latter impersonation heartily enjoyed it. Mr. Knight performed the part of Horace very well. Miss Sophie Gimher 1b a very promising aetiess; with more study she will prove a valua ble arlisif her voice is flexible and sweet and only requires a little more cultivation. Mrs. Chapman acted the pleasing lady-like housekeeper to per fection—there seemed to he nothing assumed in her performance. The afterpiece, was “The Lottery Ticket,” and it created much merriment. -Chas. Dickens would have recognised his own Quilp in the character of Wormwood as Mr. Lennox gave it. To-night * ‘The Fine Old English Gentleman’*- will he repeated, with “All That Glitters isNot- Gold.” There will alec be a matinee this after noon, with" an excellent bill.
