Ja., apl9-th,s,tu.3t/ Secretary. "Bill Arp," though a very paltry imita tor of Artemus Ward,is at preient the great humorist of the South. Why "Bill Arp" should write in a three-quarter Yankee di alect, such as never was heard below New York, or why he should continually "darn' his enemies like an irate, tin pedlar, may' we suppose, be accounted for, either by his being a renegade "New ICnglander," or from the fact that it Is much-easier to be a copyist than an original. That the poor whites of the South have a remarkable dia lect, or dialects, of their own,has been made apparent enough to every one whc; has been brought into contact with them; nor is it less notorious that these peculiarities are very different from those of the humbler class in the Northern States. But in Bill Arp's writings, which are at present repub lished with much praise in nearly all Southern journals, the almost total absence of anything like "local color" or local characteristics, is so marked that it• may be truly asserted that there Is no in stance in the annals of American humorous literature of any writer who had become so popular, who had so dull a perception of the peculiarities of the people whom he affects to describe. Even a superficial examination of a few lines of any of this writer's letters will suffice to convince the reader that 'Arp' belongs to that pitiful class of humorists who th - k that to be 'funny,' it suffices to be silly, and that so long as words are merely mis-spelled in some manner, noth ing more is required to render his style piquant. "Bill Arp's"letters are,however,doubtless, like the Indian's sermons, well adapted to the capacity of those for whom they are written. It is a case of "poor people, mean preaching." What renders his remarkain terming to the Johnson Unionists of the very late rebel States is, however, the wooden dexterity with which he dances on the tight-rope of "loyalty," pretending at every swing to fall off and then recovering himself with an awkward leap and a broad grin, which seems to say: "If I bad fallen 'twould have been no matter." Of late the leaps of this Southern Jack Padding have been bolder than ever—as a specimen, the reader may take the followhig from Arp's letter to.ThrintaitY published in a Milledgeville newspaper: "Now, you may understand the trouble, Mr. Tammany, about this elektion. We was huntin' for two full blooded Union men who could find their way, to Washington and back without a way bill, and we couldn't find 'em. They ain't in. the State, I tell you. So we fell back upon the old land marks, we are ridin' the eld wagin bosses, and our opinion is that Andy won't raise any row about it. If he does we don't care a darn. "I'm getting to be highly loyal, Mr. Hall, I know I am; for a feller tried to sell me a little nigger to-day, and "wouldn't buy him. I heard of a bill that's coming up to bind out the niggers for 90 years, and Fm agin it. Darn if I'll will vote for more than 50. You can tell Thad. Stevens of these hopefal signs. "B. A." "Bill Arp" is a very small man of straw, but such straws, however muddy, show how the wind blows at present in the South. The determination that late prominent rebels shall become leaders of the whole Union, until it suits the South to rebel again, and that meantime slavery shall be carried on under an insultingly thin veil of "apprenticeship," is apparently a foregone conclusion in the South, and "Arp" and others are doing their best to publicly urge such opinions and to deserve being branded as double traitors. It would certainly be an extraordinary stretch of magnanimity, and indicate a:singularisusceptibility to humor, to excuse him as "a funny writer." SecretfUy. The first number of the new fortnightly magazine, "The Galaxy," has made its ap pearance. It is published by the Ameri can News Company, New York. "The Galaxy" is gotten up in the style of the "Cornhill Magazine," "Temple Bar," and other English periodicals, with two hand some engravings and an illuminated cover. The May number contains the commence. ment of Trollope's nett , novel, "The Clever ings," and also "Archie Lovell 7 by Mrs. Edwards. The other articles consist of an interesting paper on the legends of Corn wall, called "Giants, Dwarfs and. Fairies;" a pretty translation of Heine's "Childe Harold," "Eine starke, schwarze Barks;" "A Winter with the American Peripa tetics," is a lively disquisition I'7 George Alfred Townsend upon American lecturers. "John Ryland's Wife" is a good magazine story. A feature of "The Galaxy" is a gos siping article upon miscellaneous topics called "Nebulae," by the editor of the maga zine. If this new aspirant for public favor is kept up to the standard upon which it is started,'" there can be no doubt of its achieving a marked success. From Antis, Nevada.

Arp." The Galaxy. PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, APRIL 19, 1866. NEW PUBLICATIONS "Ralph, and other Poems.". By Henry L. Abbey. Rondout, New York : N. Tib bale, 1866. Mr. Abbey has been very favor ably known to a large circle of friends by many excellent lyrics contributed to differ ent magazines, which haveenjoyed a widely extended "second life" in newspaper publi cation ; but this is, we believe, the first time in which he appears a volumed author. almost every poem in thepresent collection, there is a ripeness of thought, a warmth. of magination, and an intuitive sense of fit ness in lyrical proportions and finish which cannot fail to win the heart of even the se verest critic, whose severity is tempered by true taste, andwe therefore commenditmost cordially to that largely increasing body, the collectors of American poetry, as one welt worth owning. "Ralph," the• introductory poem, is the very affecting story of a poor old widow, "Who had a strong brave son before the war," who died in battle. Her plaints are sel forth with 'touching heart-rending simplic ity, and they cannot fail to be read with real sympathy by all who have lost any one who was near and dear during the late war. Had Mr. Abbey written nothing mere than this unaffected but most excellent poem, he would deserve "permanent prominence" in the American Parnassus. "Walter Goring" is the title of a sprightly, entertaining novel by Annie Thomas, who certainly a keen reader of human nature, and describes its various phases with the pen of a ready writer. Each of the charac ters is inimitable in its way, and wonder fully life-like. Nothing could be more touching that the description of poor, wilful little Daisy's short life and mournful death. Nothing more vivia and real than the mise rable experience of the unwelcome bride in the society of her grim mother and sister in-law; while through all these ruts a stream of bright thought and sparkling wit, that keeps the reader amused and interested to the very end. The authoress displays no little skill in conveying her characters through many "devious ways,'" and her final disposition of them is just what we should wish. She has given ns a deigdedly clever novel, and one that will become speedily popular. The book is published, by Harper t Brothers, and for sale by T. B. Peterson ct Brothers. • Messrs. John E. Potter & Co. havepub lished a new treatise on Horse Training, by Robert Jennings, Veterinary Surgeon, dm. Dr. Jennings adopts a system of gentle treatment, which embraces all the beet points of the different modes that have been resorted to for the education of fractions and unbroken horses. His instructions are stated very simply and intelligibly and are accompanied by numerous engravings il lustrating his process. His long experi ence in equestrian matters renders his opinions very valuable and his little work will doubtless be of real, practical ser vice to those who are interested in the sub ject. "Leighton Court," by Henry Kingsley has just been published by Ticknor & Fields. It contains many original thoughts, and describes several well-imagined charac ters and amusing incidents; but as a whole, it is scarcely equal to Ravenshoe or Air. Kingsley's other work. We cannot help thinking that a much better story might have been made from the material with which the author furnished himself at the outset, and there is a certain want of finish discernible .throughout the book, which detracts somewhat from its merit. There is in it, however, much pleasant reading, and we recommend it as worthy of perusal For sale by G. W. Pitcher. "Campaigns of a Non-Combatant." j ust published by Blalock dc Co., New York, is a volume of the personal experiences of Mr. George Alfred Townsend, one of the best war correspondents during the rebellion. Mr. Townsend tells the varied story of his stirring adventures with a degree of spirit and freedom that makes his book a very en tertaining one. Most of the matter of this volume was originally published in the Cornhill Magazine,but both that portion and the new matter which has been added will find numerous fresh readers in this country. J. B. Lippincott & Co. have Mr. Townsend's "Campaigns" for sale. Harper 6c Rrothers have pubtiahed "The Adventures of Reuben Davidger," by James Greenwood. It is a "Robinson Cru soe" sort of a story, narrating the advert , - tures of Reuben, during seventeen years of captivity among the Dyaks of Borneo. The author has woven into history of marvellous adventures much useful information of a bo tanical, zoological and geographical charac ter, and has contrived to present us with a very readable volume. Numerous well executed engravings embellish the work. For sale by J. B. Lippincott dc Co. Messrs. Harper ct Brothers have published Victor Hugo's "Toilers of the Sea," which has attracted so much atteition in France. Everything that the vateranFrench novelist writes is sure to be sought with avidity, and this last work, marred as it is by many extravagances and interspersed with strata of positive heaviness, will not be less eagerly read than was its great predecessor "Les Miserables." It is for sale_ by Peterson (.16 Brothers and G. W. Pitcher. Mr. W. J. Widdleton, New York, has:is sued a new and handsome edition of Pro fessor Aytoun's "Lays of the Scottish Ca valiers, and other Poems." The "Lays" are all prefaced by interesting historical sketches of the subjects of the poems. Their high excellence is too well known to need new commendation from us at this time. For sale by 3. B. Lippincott & Co. Messrs. Bowers, Barnes & Potts have just published a cheap edition of "Bouvier's Fa miliar Astronomy," for , the use of common schools. The work is'a standard one, and the present edition, illustrated with more than two hundred fine engravings, will, be a very valuable addifion to our American educational works. &Mt 'WHOLE COUNTRY. - Tho Survivors.

Further Partienters. When the schooner struck the City of Nor wich there was a light fog; with an easterly wind blowing. No light was seen on the schooner, and it is believed that she had none at the time. The force of the collision carried away the browaprit, figure-head and upper part of the bows of the schooner, which was found to be rapidly leaking, and was abandoned by the captain and crew a few minutes before she sank. They were picked up by the steamer Electra, which also bad the passengers from the other ves sel. Every assistance was given to the sur vivors by the Electra, Capt. J. W. Nye, of the Neptune Steamship Company, which lay near the scene of the disaster nearly two hours. The circumstance of this vessel being in the wake of the City of Norwich, and in an opportune moment to save the passengers was very fortunate. At the time the disaster happened, the passengers and most of the crew were in bed, which made their escape still more perilous. Four boats were lowered from the Electra in charge of Captain Nye, Mr. David Crowle the First Mate, Mr. Charles B. Smith, Chid Engineer, and Mr. Parsons, the pilot, to whom great credit is due for their exertions in rescuing the panic stricken passengers and crew. Some of the crew, including Captain Sturgis, received burns around the face and neck, but not of a very severe nature. it is expected the City of Norwich will be raised, cargo and all, with very little loss to either. The vessel was four years old; about 1,300 tone burden, and valued at $lBO,OOO. She is owned by the New London Steamboat Company, who will send a div ing and a wrecking party to the scene of the catastrophe to-day. The schooner Gen. Stewart Van Vliet is owned in New Haven, and was bound for that place with a load of oysters from New York. She was badly damaged by the collision. Latest News of the Missing. Mr. Martin, agent of the New London line, had no later intelligence of the missing last evening, but is in . hopes of ascertaining further about them to-day. The passenger list was destroyed with the steamer, and only an approximate estimate can be made of the number on board. There is still hopes that most of the missing have been picked up while struggling in the water. THE NEW YORK CAR DRIVERS' STRisa. —Says to-day's N. Y. Times : There ap pears to beno hope of an arrangement being made between the car-drivers, now on a strike, and their late employers, which will satisfy both parties. Both are alike deter mined to stand firmly to the propositions already made , by them, neither conceding anything to the other. New drivers were yesterday running about one-half the num ber of cars usually required to carry the passengers who patronize the street rail roads. Policemen were required upon each car to protect the new employes from vio lence at the hands of those whose situations they axe filling. A meeting of drivers was held at the City. Hall in the afternoon. A few of the lines were running cars last night for the first time since the strike com menced. Mui3.

TERRIBLE CASUALTY. ,Collision on Long Island Sound--Eleven Persons Reported Missing-- Heavy Loss of Property. [From To-day's New - York TribaneJ - At about 3:15 A. M., yesterday, the schooner General Stewart Van Vliet came into collision with the steamer City of Nor wich, off Huntington,. on Long Island Sound. The schooner struck the steamer, head-on, forward of the bulwarks, on the port side, staving in a large hole through which the water rapidly entered. • As it rose, it lifted •her fires and caused them to communicate with the wood-- work.. After the City of Norwich com menced burning she began to sink very ra pidly, and the progress of the flames was somewhat checked. In a few minutes the weight forward pressed her stern out of the water, and she immediately went down head first. About 10 persons were on board at the time of the collision. Seven of these possessed themselves of life-preservers and jumped overboard. They were all rescued by the steamer Electra, from Providence, and kindly cared for onboard. The other three passengers, including one boy, could not be found in the water, and are among the missing. Eight of the crew, which numbered 35, are also missing. 0 4 1 Names of the Lost.

THE FENIANS. ADDRESS FROM THE CANADIAN BROTHERHOOD. [From to-day's N. Y. News.] Tonoicro,.C. W., April 18, 1866; —The fol lowing is sent to us from high F. B. autho rity, addressed : To ALL Wixom rr MAY CONCERN: Where as the Government of Canada has wantonly andi treacherously caused the arrest and im prisonment of a number of our fellow-citi zens, seized them without charge and with out even the formality considered necessary n Ireland—the suspension of the Habeas Corpus—and thus violated the sacred and inalienable rights of free citizens, and per petrated a crime which even English despo tism,at its birth-place, would not be guilty of. And, whereas, heretofore the Fenian Bro therhood of Canada has steadfastly and hon estly opposed any attempt at the invasion of this country r even though that enterprise was Said to be meant as a step toward the liberation of Ireland, and firmly maintained that the people of Canada neverhaving done an injury to Ireland or the Fenian Brother hood, should not suffer the horrors of war at its hands, and by fixed determination on this point, saved Canada so far from inva sion, forgetting the narrow-minded and bigoted policy pursued by one portion of the Canadian people toward Irishmen; forget refugetaffo the encouragement, aid and afforded to the enemies of the United States during the late war. Witness therob bery of St. Albans, the piracy on Lake Erie, the attempt to burn the cityof Newyork, to introduce the plague into the Northern hos pitals; all those plots against the Northern people counseled, if not concocted, by Ca nadian officials, the open and undisguised hatred exhibited toward Americans, the rejoicings and gloating over the defeats of the Union army and the desperate endeav ors to lie away its victories and cast odium upon the soldiers of that generous land which has given our fellow-exiles a home, prosperity and freedom, and toward which, , therefore, every true Irishman is animated with the warmest. and most grateful feel ings and is identified with its citizens in spirit and sentiments, and consequently feels an injury done or insult offered to the great Republic as though he himself had been injured. But, whereas, by the late wanton aggres sion on innocent and peaceful citizens, the Canadian Government has proved itself not only regardless of theand welfare of its people, but extremely to prove to the world that it is a mere outpost of British despotism, more unscrupulous than its master in persecution; Therefore the Fenian Brotherhood of Ca nada accepts the late outrage as a challenge and a defiance and will act accordingly. Whenever the Head Centre gives his con sent, we shall be ready to avenge the insult, and root out from American soil the last vestige of the lyranny to which, ninety years ago, the 'thirteen colonies" gave the first blow, and, aided by our French Cana dian fellow citizens, replace it with the em blem of an independent sovereignty or the starry flag of that nation which is the last hope of freedom, republiestnierri and Ire land. God save the green! —, District Centre. TOIIoNTO, April 14, 1866. iliZ) =CO A.111:I Tax WAListrr.—A merrier evening never was spent by any theatre-goer than that which, the patrons of the Walnut revelled in last night. Mr. John Brougham was the hero of the occasion, and to his wit, humor and flashing imitative genius the audienee were indebted for their delight. The first play was O'Brien and Brougham's two-act comedy of "A Gentleman from Ireland." It is full of startling turns, queer situations and lively puns and plenty of good feeling (as everything is with which Brougham has to do), and it passed off superbly. Among those who admirably supported the hero were Miss Germon, Mrs. Chester, - Mr. Grif fith and Mr. Barron. The afterpiece was the ever amusing jumble of nonsense, wit, burlesque, music, etc., entitled "Po-ca-hon tas," which most of our readers have en joyed. It was played with infinite spirit, Brougham's imitations, &c., being excel lent, particularly the new Kean touch. The company handsomely supported him, and Mr. James C. Dunn, who enacted Captain John Smith admirably. This evening Brougham appears in a new bill, and to morrow he has his farewell benefit, Edwin Booth appearing next week in "Hamlet." Tau .Anca.—Mr. L. P. Barrett enacts the character of Charles de Moor in "The Rob bers" this evening, supported by Messrs. Marlowe, Mackay, James, Tilton, Miss E. Price, &c. "The Kitchen Belle," with Rob son and Mrs. Henri in the main parts, will close the performance. To-morrow, for his benefit, Mr. Barrett will appear in "The Marble Heart," one of his most thrilling personations. On Saturday he bids us fare well, and on Monday Madame Celeste ap pears.

On the night of my last I attended the ball at the General de Marina, or Admiral of this station. It was a grand affair, the very creme de la creme of our elite being present. There were few non-titled there. The perfect blaze of jewels was dazzling. The bride of the son of our host was re splendent with diamonds, though having lately resigned the title of Dowager Conn teas of Jiracoa to marry Senor Henera. She was the queen of the evening, her dress a mass of the richest lace, caught up with clusters of diamonds, and her head adorned with a coronet (a shadow of past glory) of immense solitaires, and neck and arms lending their charms to support the pre cious weight of like bits of moon beams. In value of ornaments, if not in effect; she was out shone by the daughter of the Marquis Ds these, the bride of Senor Del Valle, the youthful poakPßsor of millions. The bride of Senor Argudin eclipsed all in the intrin sic value of her diamond; her dress con sisted of a white satin under-skirt covered with puffs of English point lace, and formed a sort of train,the over-skirt of gold colored satin,covered with stars of. brilliants and caught up in front with a large-cluster 'of the same, at least four inches in diameter; the hair was dressed plainly, the better to display invaluable strings of hirge brilliants entwined about the calls of han. The bride of Brigadier Michelena, our late political Governor, was richly and tastefully ar rayed in a dress of blue celeste silk; the" skirt was covered by two deep flounces of magnificent lace, the waist was trimmed with same, and adorned with diamonds. The daughter of our host was clothed in a mass of white tulle puffs, and seemed floating in a fleecy cloud, the dress trimmed with Trait bunches of grapes of all colors and kinds, moat artistically imitated. Among_the beauties were Misses Lola Gar- . cia, Rosa Rodriguez, Matienzo • Alberne, Luisa and Matilta Fernandez, Bachiller, itc. Delicate refreshments, served pre vious to the sumptuous supper, contented the inner man, and the navy band 'kept light and graceful feet in constant motion until four-o'clock in the morning, when the guests - dispersed to avoid the ap proach of day. As I wrote you rn my last, Gran produced the opera of "La. Juive" in grand style.
