Stabat Mater. - , The performance of the Batemaw, troupe and the Handel and Haydn - Secieti, to morrow night, scarcely needs further notice at our hands. The house will be crowded to its utmost capacity, and this great coin position of Rossini will be given with an array of talent never perhaps excelled in this city. There have been several admira ble performances of the 'Rabat Mater in Philadelphia. About eighteen years age, Mr. Perelli brought it out at the Musical Fund Hall, with his fine class of amateur ladies and gentlemen, with beautiful effect. . Many of (lux readers will remember with pleasure the great success of that per formance, especially on the part of the la dies who sustained the solo passages.' The Btabat Mater was afterwards sung in splen did style by the Pyne Troupe,and still later at Concert Hall, by the Harmonia Society, when the leading soprano solos were sus tained by the same lady who achieve such a brilliant success on the occasion of Mr. Perelli's performance. To-morrow night, with liddme. Parepa, Brignoli, Fortuna, Ferranti and Mrs. Schimpf, with the grand chorus of the Handel and Haydn Society, and with a fall and effective orchestra, we shall probably have the best performance of this sublime work yet heard in Philadelphia. and it is only to be regretted that the other engage ments of Mr. Bateman will prevent the repe tition which is so eagerly desired. MR. HENRY VINCENT.—On the evenings of next Monday and Wednesday, at the Academy of Music, Mr. Henry Vincent will deliver two lectures, the first on "The Great American Conflict," and the second on "Oliver CromwelL" Mr. Vincent comes from England with a reputation second to no lecturer, and he brings with him the en dorsement of friends of our Union such as John Bright. He will receive a warm wel come. Tickets, may be procured, for both lectures, at Trumpler's, Seventh and Chest nut streets. THE FREEDISIEN'S COMMISSION. - The meeting to-night at the Academy of Music will be an overflowing one. The admirable object of the society and the striking array of eloquent speakers announced for the oo casion will combine to crowd the house. Chief Justice Chase in the ehair, and Gen. Howard and Rev. Mr. Brooks on the plat farm, give promise of a treat in the way of patriotic eloquence, rarely enjoyed on any single occasion. • AIIIIJSERMa;M. The Walnut—Mr. Booth in "Romeo and Juliet" and "Taming of the Shrew." To morrow Mr. Booth's benefit.

The Minstrels—A great bill at the Eleventh Street Opera House. Facts and Fancies. Since Mr. Bancroft .has come out as a joker, Bancroftiana are: gng te come to the surface. This is good: "Last summer riding at Newport, tee a tete, with a charming young lady, the his torian whispered in the intervals of a trot. 'Don't call me Mr. B , call me George.' The young woman said not a word, but some .time after in a large company at dinner, cross the table,she said, 'George, hand me the salt." A Copperhead tells that story, but "Fas est, dc," you know. Touching the Bancroft joke about "flash ing beautiful women across wires," a spiteful wretch suggested that the venerable wag must have been to Niblo's lately. •Beauregard says the needle gun is a hum bug. Peter will admit, we hope, that it is a humbug that is exploded to some purpose. Jefferson (not Thomas), calls a man "clear headed," when he "has no wool on the top of his bead, in the place where the wool ought to grow." The Narragansett Weekly tellsa story of a hunter in North Stonington, who shot at a rabbit from both barrels of his gun, and missing it, took his tobacco box. from his pocket and threw it at the rabbit, hitting it on the head and killing it instantly. What's in an aim ? If the fellow had used a hare trigger he . would have knocked Bunny over first shot. A PERFECT SEWING MACHINE—GOLDEN HONOR. WELL BESTOWED.—Backward and forward—backward and forward, swings the pendulum of Time, recording the world's life on the dial of eternity, and,. as it beats, the world groWs older, riper, and, we hope, better. Each age seems to have its distinc tive office. The'present is theera of inven tion, and in the elaboration of its design in no manner has "it educed a greater benefit to the human familythan in the wonderful scheme of the sewing machine. While there are so: many competitors for the honors and profits of public favor, it is of the highest importance to the public to know which most worthily claims their patronage. We notice that the new improved "Elliptic „Leek-Stitch Sewing Machine" has this - year borne off all the highest honois ow. own and other State fairs, and has just received the Gold Medal of Honor from the Mary land Institute of Baltimore. Froin the well-known character of this. Institute for thorough and exhaustingiU vestigation and perfect impartiality In. the bestowment of. its awards, as well as the strong competition of oak. older sewing machines for this honor, we congratulate the Elliptic Sewing Machine Company on this distinguished -success. The . elegant salesroom sf the Company are at No. 923 Chestnut street. REMOVAL OF FEDERAL DEAD.—We un derstand that there is an agent of the Gov erninent in the city, for the purpose of hav ing the dead of the Union armies removed from the Cemetery, and vicinity round about, to the. NationEd Burying Ground at Chattanooga. The agent requests that the people in the country contribute any in fermation within their knowledge in refer ence to the place of burial of any . Federal officer or soldier. We hope our people will render all the service that may be required in this matter.—Efuntspil/ ~/.23dependent, REIN'rERMENT.---The federal dead in and around Huntsville, Alabama, are to be re moved to'the national burying grouncrtiear Crhattanooga. - - - - , , ova. wnoi nowt 'y 4 Intercepted Correspondenc e of Duke Gwin--His Land Grant from Maxi milian---Correspondence Ge tween Mr. Seward •and MraDrouvn de Lhuvs. W - , ASILIteGTON, Nov. 21.—About th e 1 . 110 of July 1865, Mr. Corwin was desirous ,of . Sending important dispatches from Mexico to the :United States Government: Col. Don Enrique A. Mejia, then about to visit this country,offered to be the bearer,bnt his Offer was only partially accepted, for Mr. :Corwin feared that the officers of Maxi roillan's Government. would not hesitate to violate thesanotity of even anemitaasadorial Seal in the hands of any private person, in order to know the State secrets of this Go vemment. He therefore sent his dispatches by private opportunity to Vera Cruz—they were pat into Don Mejia's hands after he had gone on board the steamer. But the events that had happened justified Mr. Cor win's fears. Don Enrique had been seized, his papers all taken from , him and opened. Not finding the expected despatch - es of the United States Minister, he was released after a few days' imprisonment, and his papers returned to him. Among them was found a bundle of letters belonging to some other traveler, but accidentally mixed up with his at the examining rooms of the Custom House. In this bundle were the following letters from Duke Gwin,showing thathe stood high in the estimation of both the Imperial and French Governments ,that he was about to obtain large tracts of land, and his son was to have control of the largest gold mine in the world. But Mr. Gwin did not confine himself to his own prospects, but speaks of Mr. Johnson's" ac cession to the Presidency in no flattering terms. In these days, when President Johnson has been pardoned by the rebels and taken into their high favor, It is re freshing to read that 'Andy Johnson's speeches breathe such a heinous spirit that there is nothing before us but extermina tion. It really makes me sick when I con template the bloody agony that awaits the Southern people. ' Col. Mejla promptly forwarded these despatches to Mr. Romero, the Mexican Minister, who sent them t o Mr. Seward. Through our embassy at Paris they were transmitted to the French Govan vent, as containing full proolk of the complicity of that Government with some of the principal leaders of the rebellion.: Mr. Dronyn de Lhnys'a pointed and pungent reply will be found at the close of this correspondence.

He will then be all.powerfue Ind with his favorable disposi tion ttward our pans we are pretty certain to carry the day. 'Shins, are progressing as stow:tray as pos.

I feel very easy about Mexican af fairs, but I'm dreadfully blue about the South. Andy Johnson's speeches breathe such a heinous spirit that I can see nothing ahead but extermination. I shouldn't be surprised if there were re-enacted on the erican con Linea t the massacre and havoc of the trench Revolution, It is horrible to contemplate the situation of the country.. I am afraid they willcommit excesses to which all the horrors that have tone before will bees nothing It's dreadful to fall in battle, be t ten times more dreadful to die on the scaffold. Johnson says treason can have no es ter uation; it Is a crime that merits the direst put Ish. ment. That's to say. all traitors should be bung. and, ne we are all traitors, there's nothing left for us but hanging, it really makes me sick when I think of the bloody-agony that awai s the Southern people. Bat we nibs, learn to suppress our feelings; it may be. after all, that our only home will be among these people, If the old man ehouldn'tsocceed, we shall have to live in Cali for nia, ge. and, Indeed, we are fortunate to have even such a refu lam very glad Aunt Sue is going to Europe; she'll be a great comfort to you. The old man wrote the Judge from Havana, and said, when the time came and he got fairly started. he would let him know. He told tha Judge that Uncle /slick must come with him, to furnish the necessary means, which should be paid on his arrival Tell Carrie her lett'r was delightful, and to write to me every mail.

The third. In the well-lintown handwriting of the doctor dated Mexico. May 18, lB6l. Is addressee to "My dear Colonel." and was contained In an envelope addressed to Cal. John Winthrop." The (meth osigned 'Massey " and dated Mexico, 18th et May, Ins, was addressed "To the Han. E.

Elwin and fhmuy,though citizens of the United States, are disloyal to its govern ment. Second—That they are ergaged In ohtainidg from Maximilian titular Emperor of Mexico, grants of mineral Janda In the States of that, Republic adjoining the United States, and that Dr. Gwinls to be the chief direct-tug agent is, workitg these mines. Third—That a large accession of capitalists and emi. grants Into these States from parties In rebellion against the United States Is expected. .Flourth—Ttutt they assure the said Maximilian and the .e mperor of France that their contemplated pro. ceedings will tend at once to promote the projects of Maximilian In Mexico, and Inure to the Injury of the U= Peel States. filth-1 hat they claim to have the patronage of the 1 my. eror of the French, with assurances of military aid. In submitting to His Excellency the Minister of perei%l3 Affairs copies of this correspondence, the un dersigned is instructed frankly to state that the sym patnies of the American people for tne Republicans of Mexico are very lively, and that they are disposed to regard aid:, impatience the continued intervention ef France In that countrs: that any favor shown to the speculations of Dr. Elwin by the titular Mmperor of Mexico, or by the Imperial Govern out of terancs, aril tend greatly to Increase the popular Impatience, because it will be regarded. perhaps justly, as import ing danger, or, at least, a menace to the United States Could the its overnmen tor the undersigned oe brought to believe that the state of these spec slations were worthy of entire confidence, the President of the UtilteO states a ould be ioreed to the conclusion that L' is Majesty the Emperor of Prance was pursuing to re ex , co a pohry materially at variance with that of Eery] ality in regard to the political institutions of the country which ne avowed at the commencement of his war with that Republic. The President, oa- the contrary. confidently and sincerely expects in some form an assurance that all the pretences of Dr. Gwen, and of his associates, are destitute of any sanction from the Emperor of France. It is unnecessary for the undersigned to say, that after having expelled Insurgents from our own bor eera, the United states could not look with sa . lsfaction upon the Ir reorganization as martial or political ene mies on the opposite banks of the Rio Grande. The undersig. ed avails himself of this occasion to renew to his Excellency, the tainisor of Foreign .Ai fairs, assurances of the distinguished consideration with which he has the honor to be his Excellency's most obedie t and humble servant, JOHN BIGELOW.

August 7, Isits.—Sir: I have received the let, ter which ycu rave done me the honor to-address to me, dated A ugust I. In it you mention to me some plans for the colonization of Mexico, deemed to nave been conceived with intentions hostile to the Government of the United States. and you desire to know if it is true that the Emperer Marian an and France lend their support to these undertakings W e shall always be ready, Sir, to respond frankly to demands for explanations coming to us from an allied nation when they are inspired by a conciliatory spirit, presented In: an smicanle tone, and based noon au thentic documents or positive Mots. But I must add that the Emperor is resolved to reject all interpola tions which may come to ns in a comminatory tone about vague allegations, and based upon documents of a dubious character. You will understand, sir, that it is not for me to en lighten you concerning thespeculations of anchor such peroon who has emlgratedto Mexico; but what .T. know of the intentions of the Mexican Government enables me to say to you that It proposes to let the emigrants from the Southern States enter upon I e territory only individually, and without arms. The. , will receive such help as humanity requires; but will be immedi stay dispersed through. the provinces of the empire, and bound to abstain, in their conduct, from every thing which mleht awaken the just susceptibility of neighboring nations. I have, moreover, reason to be ' neve that these dispcsitions of the Emperor Maximil ian are by this time as well known to the Cabinet at Washington as they axe to us, As tor France, she ha s on several occasions, Sir, and with entire frankness, stated her resolution to observe in all the Internal questions which may egitate or, divide the Union au impartial end scrupulous neu trality. We have nothing to offer as a pledge of our intentions but our word, but we deem the word of Yrance a guarantee which will satisfy any friendly power, as we rurselves are satisfied with the word pledged to us by the Federal Government, to remain strictly neutral with regard to affairs in Mexico I take pleasure in 'recalling here, Sir, the assnrances which I had the satisfaction 10' receive from you on that subject, especially in your letters of the 12th of June last, and which I have stated in my anawer,dated the 17th. • The Emperor trusts with confidence to the senti ments of which you were the interpreter, and although certain recent mans estations may seem difficult to reconcile with these declarations, bis Majesty does not hesitate to rely always on the honorableness of the American people.„ Accept assurances of the high consideration with which I have the boner to be, Sir, your humble and very obedient servant.

I observe with star more pleasure that Mr. Drouyn de Dheys, la the coat intinice.tion which he addressed to you on the 7th or .o artist. antborizee tue to expect that these schemea and speculations. so far _as then were hostile to' the United flutes would be ells approved by thearithorltiee acting in Mexico under the direction of, or in co•opers lion with, the Emperor of France. It Is perceived with r.aret that either in substance or in manner the repre sentation which you addressed to Mr. Dronyn Lbuys, and which elicited his communication, before referred to, in reply, was regarded by Mr. Dronyn an .I,l3nya as exceptionable. XL becomes proper for me, under these circumstan. ces; to say that your representation was made in con forroity with instructions--given you by this depart. ment, aid that on reviewing these instructions we are not able todiscover any ground for criticism. They weregiv en under the belief that a seasoubl c ir caention to the reporta sad rumors that were in stiorein regard to schemes of Lir. Sarin and other rebel endasi-- rhs in Mexico was necessary to =event difficulties earl to allay appreltenalans, the indulgence or which was Prejudicial to a good understa' thug between the United States and France.
