THE TREATY WITH PRUSSIA.
American citizens of German',birth have
great reason to rejoice over .the treaty lately
concluded by Mr. Bancroft and. the Cabinet
of Berlin. ..It removes the chief ditficulty in
the Way of their revisiting their r native land,
which consisted in their liability. to military
service, after: their arrival there, notwith
standing their American citizenship.' Prussia
and-the other German States have heretofore
refttgeti to assent to the doctrine that their
subjects, who have failed to serve the re
quired time in the army before corn
ing to America, became exempt from
such service on'their return thither. Various
cases have, consequently, occurred in which
naturalized Germans have been arrested
and- made to perform military service in the
armies of their native countries. There have
been volumes of correspondence upon such
cases; but, while the United States Govern
ment has insisted on the doctrine that a
naturalized American citizen was forever re
leased
from all obligation to his native coun
try, the German States have persistently de-
taied it.
It has been reserved for Mr. Bancroft and
Count Bismarck to settle the question accord
ing to the American doctrine, so far as Prus-
Ma and the other States of the North German
Confederation are concerned. On the 22d of
February, an auspicious date, a treaty was
sigued at Berlin, which is new on its way to
!hie country for ratification, It provides,
says a cable despatch front Mr. Bancroft, that
"emigration shall be free, and that rutturaliza
lion changes nationality." In other words,
all the old restrictions upon German emi
gration to America are removed, and
when a German, in his oath of elle.:
glance the United States, forswears
sl
all all e 'fume 'to foreign sovereigns, and
especiall i
to the sovereign of the State which
he leaves, this latter clause is recognized as
absolute and valid. His former sovereign
can never make a claim upon him for mili
tary or other service. The persistence with
which this doctrine has been denied hereto
fore makes it more remarkable that it should
now be so readily yielded, and especially by
the chief of the German powers. It is an
other proof of the growing appreciation in
Europe of the power and political principles
of the United States of America. Coupled
with the now universal admission
that the Monroe doctrine, even if it be not
agreeable, is forever established, it shows that
the European powers have made up their
minds that this Republic is no longer to be
interfered with or trilled with. Our triumph
over the rebels has led to both the great re
sults referred to.
The wisdom that presides in the govern
ment of Prussia, and has made her a first
class power, shows itself also in the prompt
acceptance of the American doctrine on the
subject of naturalization. The new treaty
'will be hailed by all German subjects, and
especially by those having relatives in the
United States, as a most liberal concession.
The Germans of this country will have a
higher respect for their Fatherland, and a
more grateful recollection of it, now that
they see it brought into sympathy with their
adopted country. Aggrandized Prussia will
be regarded also by the American Govern
ment, and by its native citizens, 1113 a really
friendly power, which has yielded the only
point that was ever likely to create disagree
ment or ill-feeling. If our other representa
tives abroad do not effect treaties like the
new one with Prussia, they are not fit for
their • poaterMr. -- Bancroft - has; during - his
short term as Minister at Berlin, done a
more important work than any one of them
has been able to do during years of service.
THE HAI LWAT MONOPOLIES•
The decision of the Supreme Court in the
case of the Fifth and Sixth Streets Passenger
Railway, delivered yesterday, is -a very im-
portant one. Not that the question involved
was a difficult or delicate one, for it is extra
ordinary that such a point should ever have
been taken by any corporation. Bat it is im
portant because it is a judicial declaration ad
verse to the idea that these monopolies
own the city of Philadelphia. This idea has
gained:ground very rapidly in the past few
years. The impunity with which the railway
companies habitually violate the city
ordinances; their total disregard of
the comfort and convenience o'
the citizens; their persistence in maintain
ing extravagant rates of fare; the ,sneaking
eipedienti to Which they have recently re
sorted to perpetuate the slush nuisance; these
are a few of the proofs that these monopolies
have ,reached a point when a reminder was
seeded that they were not altogether beyond
the reaeh of the laws, and that the City of
31"hiladelphia still retains some of its ancient
rights of control over the streets and the veld
oles that travel upon them.
Tilerikadon - of the Supreme editit - , ii
Maple one. It declares that these railway
toispardes are subject to all proper municipal
seguhitiohs, just as the omnibus lines of olden
sine
. 10*." and that the ordinance which
jprOVldea fox the numbering of thc cars and
the posting of the certificate of lieense in each
car is s proper police regulation. That this
should have been questioned shows plainly
enough how far these cowrations have gone,
in their assertion of an independence of mu
nieipal authority and regulation.
Now that the law has asserted itself on this
point, it would be well if it could be brought
to bear upon others. The city, in agreeing
to the incorporation of the several railway
companies, made certain stipulations to
which they all formally agreed. Two
'of the most important of these have never
been complied with. The first relates to
the repairs of the streets, and the
second to the removal of obstructions, par
ticularly the obstruction of snow. Upon all
portions of any "road, street, avenue or al
ley," which was paved at the time the rail-,
way was built, the company is required to be.
"at the entire cost and expense of maintain
ing,paving, repairing and repaving" the same,
not the railway track alone, but the whole
highway. It is the duty of the Chief Com
missioner of Highways to see that this is
done, the penalty being a fine of twenty five
dollars per day, for fifteen days, and then the
recovery by suit of the' expenses incurred by
the Commissioner of Highways in making
the necessary repairs.
The duty of Vie railway companies to re
move the snow from the streets is equally
clear. This is a necessary "police regula
tion." Under the present disregard of the
city, ordinances, the railway companies have
practically reduced the width of our princi
pal streets, during the present winter, to
about five feet, while the huge snow-banks on
either side render the crossing of the streets,
except at the corners,almost impossible. And
yet the law on this subject is as explicit as
words could possibly make • it. The railway
companies are required to remove the snow
from the streets, or else to run a sufficient
number of comfortable sleighs for the accom
modation of the public. The ordinance
of July 7th, 1857, particularly says
that this is to be done ."for the conveni
ence of the public," showing that it was the
intention of the authorities to preserve the
rights of the people in the proper use of the
public streets. 136 fore the days of street rail
ways, the citizens cleared the snow from the
sidewalks and threw it into the street. There
it was beaten down to a uniform level, and a
broad track for sleighs was thus made, and
travel was not interrupted. It was provided
that at least the same amount of convenience
should be preserved under the railway sys
tem, and as the cars could not run without
clearing the tracks, it was provided, not that
a narrow gullet' should be dug be
tween two ranges of snow-banks, but
that the snow should be removed. If the
Chief Commissioner of Highways did his
duty, these continued violations of law could
not occur. Until he does, we see no reason
whywby business men and private citizens gene
rally should consent to have themselves
blocked up with these unsightly and trouble
some snow-banks, when they can dispose of
them just as they always did in the old time,
by spreading them over the entire street. If
the railway track gets its share nobody will
be any the worse for it. We want to see
these monopolies showing some little regard
for the laws and some little respect for the
rights and the will of the people, and this
can be done if the public once makes up its
mind to compel it.
GAMMON OR PLUCK?
Mr. Andrew Johnson certainly cannot be a
reader of Dickens, or he never would have
fallen into the mistake of sending a gentle
man of General Lorenzo Thomas's peculiarity
of backbbne to beard the grim Stanton in his
den. To Mr. Toots Mr. Dombey was as
formidable an object of opposition as Mr.
Stanton is to Mr. Johnson; but Mr. Toots,
"spooLey" as he was, was too sharp a man
of the world to go for advice to any one who
would give timid counsels. Accordingly he
laid the story of his love for Florence, and the
opposition of the stern parental Dombey, be
fore his sporting friend, the "Game Chicken,'
and asked the unbiased advice of that dis
tinguished pugilist; when the latter declared
that the only practical way out of the dill.
eulty was to "give Dombey one under the
weskit and double him up !"
Toots failed to act upon this hint, and Wal
ter Gay bore off the fair prize, much to the
distress of Mr. Toots and the disgust of the
"Chicken." The following is Mr. Dickens's
report of what followed :
"Now master," said the Chicken, doggodl,y,
when he, at length, caught Mr. Toots's oye "I
want to know whether this here gammon is to
finish it, or whether 3 ou're agoing in to win?"
"Chicken," returned Mr. Toots, "explain your
self."
"Why then, here's all about it, master," said
the Chicken. "I ain't a cove to chuck a word
away. Here's wot It is. Are any one on 'em to
be doubled up?"
When the Chicken put this question he dropped
his hat, made a dodge-.Nand- a-feint-with his -left
hand, hit a supposed enemy a violent blow with
his right, shook his head smartly, and recovered
himself.
"Come master," said the Chicken. "Is it to be
gammon or
,pluck? Which?"
"Chicken," returned Mr. Tooth, "your expres
sions are coarse and your meaning is obscure."
I
"Why, then, tell you what, master," said the
Chicken. "This is where it is. It's mean."
"What is mean, Chicken?" asked Mr. Toots.
"It is," said the Chicken; with a frightful cor
rugation of his broken nose. "There! Now,
master 1 Woti Wen you could go and blow on
this here match to.the stlff'un;" by which depre—
ciatory appellation it has been since supposed
that the Game One intended to signify Mr. Dom
bey; "and when you could knock the winner and
all the kit of 'em dead out of wind and time, are
you going to give in? To give in?" said the
Chicken, with a contemptuous emphasis. "Wy,
it's mean !"
"Chicken," said Mr. Toots, severely, "you're a
perfect vulture! Your sentiments are atrocious."
"My sentiments Is game and fancy, master,"
returned the Chicken. "That's wot my senti
ments is. I can't abear a meanness. I'm afore
the public, I'm to be heard on at the bar of the
Little Belephant, and no Gov'ner 'o mine mustn't
go and,do what's mean. Wy, it's mean," said the
Chicken, witb Increased expression. • "That's
where it is. It's mean." •
Mr. Johnson enjoys the reputation of being
a shrewd politician and a keen manager; but
how he could have been so blind as to send
the Toots-like Thomas to contend with the
° stern Dombey of the War Office, when he
had a Morrissey at his command, passes all
understanding. Mr. Morrissey never would
have eonsented to allow gammon to be stye
n(li to - plAlck, and somebody would inevita
bly have been "doubled up." Mr. Johnson has
made many mistakes, but none so serious as
to send the nerveless Lorenzo to contend
with the "'an" of the War Department.

THE PHILADECP II I4t SOUP SO.
Among the cheap but beneficent, effective
and practical charities of Philadelphia, none
are more deserving of liberal support than the
Soup Societies. These have their'soup-houses
in various parts o 4 the city, fir, which,
during the winter, excellent and' nutritious
soup is dispensed to all who come recom
mended, and a recommendation is not ne
cessary for apparently deserving applicants.
Some idea of the practical operation of
these institutions may be derived from a
short account of one bf them, and me select
the oldest and most important—the Northern
Soup Society, whose House is in Fourth
street aboVe Brown. This society was estab
lished by members of the Society of Friends,
in 1817, more than fifty years ago. There
were a few years when its services were not
needed; but in every year when there was
distress in the city, it has distributed largo
amounts of soup and bread. In 1855 the
amount was 116,758 quarts. In other years,
since then, the amount has ranged be
tween forty and one hundred thousand quarts.
The operations for the current season may be
stated as follows :
Soup house opened Me. 18, 1867.
Distributed to Feb. 27, 1868, 62 week days
:10,000 quarts of soup.
$4OO worth of bread.
Between five and six hundred families are
• upplied daily, and the issue of tickets is con
stantly increasing. Although none but the
best materials are used,the process of making
and dispensing the soup is so perfect and so
systematized,that the cost is trilling when the
quantity is considered.: Whoever wants to
satisfy curiosity concerning the establishment
should visit it on any week day between the
hours of eleven and one o'clock, when the
committee in charge, who give their services
gratuitously,will be glad to show and explain
everything.
The benefits of the Soup llouse are not
confined to the winter. In the upper story is
a free bathing house for women and children.
Last summer no less than ten thousand baths
were taken at the Northern Soup House, at
no cost to the bathers. A committee of ladies
has charge of this department during the
•
summer season.
At the present time the Society distributes
about twelve hundred quarts of soup per day,
and bread twice a week. The expense of the
materials is greater than ever before, and as
the funds of the Society are limited, any
donations, however moderate, will be accept
able. Contributions may be sent to Charles
,T. Sutter, President, 304 Callowhill street; to
T. Paorris Perot, Treasurer, 621 Market
street; to Samuel T. Child, Secretary, 824
North Second street, or to any of the active
members of the Society.
Under the operations of tbe Philadelphia
Soup Societies, there is no reason why any
person in the city should starve, or even
suffer from want of nutritious and excellent
toed. No other city in America has such
provision for its poor, and it is to the credit
of the city that each Society should be libe
rally supported. We have given the location
of the Northern Soup Society. The others
axe as follows: Philadelphia Society, Grissom
street (late Green's Court) above Pine and
between Fourth and Fifth; Western Society,
1615 South street; Moyamensin,g Society,
corner of Eighth and Marriott streets, below
Christian; Southwark Society, Sutherland
below Queen street, east of Second; Spring
Garden Society, Buttonwood below Broad;
Kensington Society, 208 Allen street, and
Central Society, North street below Sixth.
A FRA,GPIENTARY CONGRESS.
For all purposes of "honor and emolument"
politicians of the Woodward-Randall school
are practically satisfied with the constitu
tion of the Fortieth Congress. But for the
purposes of incendiary harangues and par
tisan subserviency, they are fond of denounc
ing the body of which they are a part as a
fragmentary and illegal thing, having no con
stitutional rights and powers. Yesterday
these immaculate Democrats got up a tre
mendous protest, with an amount of solem
nity crammed into it which is almost over
whelming, in which they bitterly regret that,
being in the minority, they were not allowed
the blessed privilege of filibustering.
This protest sets forth with the de
claration that its signers "represent, directly
or in principle, more than one-half of all the
people of the United States." ; This is a most
important admission, for if these forty-odd
Democrats represent more than one-half of
the people, surely the one hundred and forty
three Republicans may claim to represent the
"rest of mankind" in/these United States.
Adding to this repreSentation the constitu
ency of Fernando Wood and John Morrissey,
who were too ex . cluiive to join:in the com
mon protest, and it amounts to a demonstra
tion that the Fortieth Congress, so far from
being a "a fragmentary" body, is a little more
than perfect, and would require the removal
of a few Democrats to tone it down to an
exact whole. The protest certainly settles
the Woodward-Randall doctrine effectually.
P. T. Barnum has such an extraordinary
facility for being burned out that it has been
suggested that his name should be spelled
Burnem. His museum at Seventh and Chest
nut streets in this city was totally destroyed
by tire in the winter of 1851-52; Iranistan,
his semi-barbaric seat at Bridgeport, fell a
prey to the flames at a later date; still later
his museum at Broadway and Ann street was
burned out root and branch; and this morn
ing his show establishment farther up Broad
way was totally destroyed by fire, involving
veryleari.loss. Barnum has a cat-like &-
dilly for always et:ming - down upon liirfeet,
and ruinous conflagrations do not seem to in
terfere in the least with his progress in the
way of accumulating greenbacks.

The Vote Yesterday.
Those of our readers who received the later
editions of the Bet.i.s.rm yesterday, were paz
zkd by the announcement of the vote on the
Articles, of Impeachment, which was stated as:
ayes 125, nays 61. The despatch coming at a
late hear, it escaped the usual inspection and
was printed as received. The vote should have
read : ayes 125, nays 41. The mistake is ex
plained by the following note from the Manager
of the Franklin Telegraph Company:
"Nauru 3, 1868.—The mistake in the vote on
Impeachment last night was evidently made by
my operator. A lone and 'six' sound so much
alike when made hastily that a mistake of the
kitd might easily be made. The operator who

sidered one of the best in the Western Union of-

this should have occurred, and hope it has not
tamed you serious annoyance.

ALGERIA.
Effects of the Famine-:-A Violent Tent
pest.
The Courrier de Tlemcen, in Algeria, of the 31st
of January, says:—The robberies and arrests for
depredations on property have increased daring
the last week. The mortality has been very
great among the Arabs. Twenty corpses have
been picked up in the town and environs. Until
now the famine had spared the natives residing
here, but at present more than a hundred fami
lies are in the most frightful destitution from
want of employment. The administration, the
commune and the colonists are doing their ut
most to aid them, but in vain. Those unfortu
nate people are doomed to a certain death.
The Algerian journals just to hand in Paris
give some particulars of a violent tempest which
lately broke over Phillippsville, and continued
for nearly a week. Violent squalls accom
ranted by hail and rain, succeeded each other
ineessanily, and the thunder rolled! as In
summer storms. The sea,
under the influence
of the wind, became terrible. The Bran
rats, a French brig, broke from her moor
ings in the roadstead of Store and was dashed
to pieces on the shore. In the wet dock - the Saf-
Sat, belonging to the port, was driven from her
fastenings and wrecked against the quay. The
steam-tug Seine bad her bulwarks destroyed by
the repeated shocks of the boats alongside her.
The. Saint Esprit, a transport vessel, is a com
plete wreck. The Saint trrawlois had her bow
carried away, and without the assistance of the
Santa Maria would have sunk.

THE IMPEACHMENT ARTICLES,
Their PresentatiOn to the Senate,
Dispute as to ✓ the Time.
POST OFFICE APPROPRIATION
Presenting Irupeachnient Articles to
the heiutte.
(Opecial Deerptitch to the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin.)
WASIII3I4;TON, March 3.—lt was expected that
the managers on the part of the House would
present the articles of impeachment to the Senate
to-day, consequently the galleries of the Senate
chamber were entirely filled at an early berm The
managers selected by the Housemet this morning
at 11 o'clock, and it was decided not to present
the articles to the Senate until to-morrow. Many
members of the Committee favor adding one or
more additional articles,based upon the acts of the
President previous to the Stanton affair, but this
Is seriously and strenuously opposed by'the other
members of the Committee. The Indications are
that the Committee will aemain in session during
most of to-day, in consequence of the action of
a portion of the Committee.
Gen. Butler insists that the article proposed by
him shall be added, and In this he is supported
by Messrs. Logan and Stevens. It Is understood
that Gov.l3outwell Is opposed to, changing the
articles as they now stand, but urges upon the
Committee the necessity of not delaying their
presentation, and thinks it will show signs of
weakness to bring in additional articles for the
House to act upon. It is evident that the But-,
ler men on the Committee will make a vigorous
fight, but that they will be defeated is equally ev
ident.
The Senate remained in session to a very
late hour last night, in order to finish the rules,
in anticipation that the articles' would be pre
sented to them to-day. Any unnecessary delay in
so reporting them must result Injuriously to im
peachment, and hence it is believed that sufficient
pressure will be brought to bear upon the mana
gers to have them report certainly to-morrow.
At the meeting of the managers to-day Judge
Bingham was s•dceted as Chairman.
The rac rd le Case.

At one o'clock, the Clerk appeared in the Son
ate and announced that the House had appointed
seven managers who would appear on the part of
that body to prosecute the articles of
impeachment. The Clerk at the same
time presented to - the - Senate - the - Articles of Im
peachment found In the House. The Senate was
considering the Bounty bill at the time. Having
bid the articles on the Clerk's desk, it again pro
ceeded to the consideration of that bill.

At half-past one o'clock the Secretary of the
Senate presented to the House a resolution from
the Senate, stating that the Senate was ready to
proceed to the trial of Andrew Johnson, Presi
dent of the United States, upon the articles re
ported and passed by the House. The Commit
tee of Managers of the House to conduct the Im
peachment were in session three hours, and agreed
to report•to the House to-day additional articles
of impeachment. One is substantially the Butler
article, voted down yesterday. The second
article is being drawn up by Judge Bingham,
charging. the President, in August, 1866, in
Washington city, in a public speech, with
denouncing Congress as an 'unconstitutional
and illegal body, hanging upon the verge of the
Government," as a "rump Congress" and other
opprobrious epithets, intended to bring Congress
into disrespect and disgrace. As soon as Judge
Bingham finishes his article the managers will
present both to the House. Messrs. Wilson and
Binwham favor the last article, but bitterly op
pose Butler's.

the consideration of the Walrussian purchase,
but the matter was postponed until the meet
ing on Thursday next. This subject is likely to
cause lenethy discussion in the Committee While
there has'been no formal interehange of opinions
between the members, there is every prospect
that the Committee will not make a favorable re
port to the House, but recommend that no
appropriation be made for the purchase of this
territory.
The members who have canvassed the House
say that an,appropriation to pay for Walrussis
cannot possibly get through. Much will depend,
however, upon the report of the committee, and
nothing can be definitely stated until their action
on the subject is known.
A number of Radical members of Congress
leave here to-day for New Hampshire, to devote
this week to assisting in closing the canvass in
that State.' Advices from there give Republicans
much encouragement here, and it is believed
that the Itaditals will carry the State
by an increased majority.
In the House to-day Mr. Eldridge unsuccess
fully endeavored to have the protest of the Demo
crats against the articles of impeachment read at
the Clerk's desk. in order to get them into the
Cong'resserynal Globe. The yeas and nays were
called, but it failed by a strictly party vote.

LonnoN, March 3.—The trial of Nagle, on a
charge of conspiracy in the recent Fenian opera
tions, was resumed at Sligo yesterday. The day
was again consumed in an unsuccessful effort to
impannel a jury, the great:object being to get a
mixed jury. Eighteen aliens were subpmnaed,
and three of them being militia men, were re
jected. After further efforts to secure a:jury,Uate
in the afternoon the trial was finally adjourned.
Previously, however, a motion of Mr. Hersh,'
counsel for the def, nce, to remove the trial to
the Court of Queen's Bench, was again made and
argued. The . Court, under the circumstances,
granted the motion.
The result of this decision will be to transfer
the trial to another piano, where a mixed jury
will probably he obtained with less difficulty.

VITY BULLETIN.
HEAVY DIAMOND.ROBBERY
CALDWELL'S NEW STORE ROBBED
ARREST OF ONE OF THE THIEVES
525 3 000 Still Missing
A daring robbery was committed this afternoon
at the new store of James E. Caldwell & Co., 902
Chestnut street.
• Two men entered the store, and during the
momentary absence of the attendant from the
diamond case near the front door, contrived to
abstract two trays containing a large number of
diamond rings and clusters, and escaped without
notice or detection.
The robbery was first detected by some of the
customers finding several rings on the floor, near
the - door. The alarm was at once given and the
police notified of the fact.
By great good fortune, Officer Henderson, of
the 'Reserve force, captured one of the thieves in
the restaurant of the Continental Hotel, and at
once took him to Caldwell Co's. store. Upon
searching him, about forty diamond clusters and
rings were found on his person, constituting the
contents of one of the stolen trays.
He was taken.to the Central Station, and bad a
hearing before Alderman Heftier. He gave the
name cf Martin Bailey, trunk-maker, Lake street,
Chicago. He says that be came to Philadelphia
five days ago, In search of work. He is registered
at the Continental Hotel. He is not known to
the police of this city.
After the preliminary bearing, Bailey was com
mitted in default of $7,000 bail to appear on
Saturday.
His accomplice is yet at large. The value of
the diamonds, which are principally fine solitaire
stones, is about $25,000. It Is to be hoped that
the vigilance of the police may result in the re
covery of the stolen goods.
The robbery and arrest of Bailey produced
much excitement, and the lose of so large an
amount is felt to be a severe damper upon the
satisfaction - which the firm and customers feel in
the opening of the new and splendid establish
ment, which is just now attracting so much at
tention.
CLEARING THE CITY RAILWAY TRACKS.—The
non necessity for using salt on the city railway
tracks, and the value of the new snow plough
employed on the Thirteenth and'Fifteenth Streets
Railway,were fully tested during the heavy storm
on Sunday night. The snow was not only of
unusual depth, but was covered with a hard crust
of ice. The first oc the two ploughs put in use
on this road made its first trip, after the storm.
on Monday, at 2 o'clock A. M. In less than two
hours it made the round trip, six and a quarter
miles, removing. snow drifts in many places that
were over 18 Inches in depth. The cars commenced
their trips at the regular hour in the morning,
and have continued to run, l without interruption,
since that time. This road was the only one in the
city which ran with single teams yesterday. In
New York, Chicago, and other cities, the city
railway cars stopped running altogether during
this storm, which has been the heaviest known
for some time. It is now clearly demonstrated
that the tracks of the city railways can be kept
clear without recourse to,the salt nuisance, and it
is only necessary to use the proper means and
appliances, and the thing is accomplished.
Mrs. Kew ble In New York.
Sp6king of Mrs. Kemble's first reading in
New York last night, the 1 lerak? says:
"All who were near enough to hear well
throughout the reading were transported, as if by
magic, to Rome, to Corioli, to Actium. A single
voice milked to reproduce the confused shouts
of the Roman rabble, the haughtiness and rage
and desperation of the brave Coriolanus, the
proud love of his mother, Vulumnia, the tender
love of his wife Virgilia,
the heal .? affec
tion of his old friend Menenius 1 uTippa,
and even the boyish accents of his son
arci us, as well as the hate, the
welcomes awl the treachery of his Volscian foe,
Titus Anfiditts, and the cunning malevolence of
the tribunei of the people, and the talk of Roman
and Voiscian senators, patricians generals, and
all the other dramatis persolue of the tragedy.
The scenes and characters of the tragedy were
vividly brought before us, not as if enacted on a
stage, with all its accessories, but as if in reality.
The magnificent third scene of act five,
in which, in mourning habits,Virgilia,Volumnia,
the young Marcius wad 'Valeria kneel, before
Coriolanus, on their errand of intercessio in be
half of Rome, was most powerfully rendered.
The moving appeal of Volnmnia elicited a storm
of applause. Throughout the entire evening
Mrs. Kemble's reading was frequently interrupted
by applause. The "Midsummer Night's Dream"
will be read this evening, "The Tempest" to
morrow evening, and "King , I,ear, on Saturday,_
morning. =No student of Shaltspearnshould
these precious opportunities of listening to his
greatest living interpreter."
A Swindle Anticipated.
The following letter,from General Wool, is in
answer to one from ather Beeson, suggested by
a bill recently presented in the House of Repre
sentatives for the payment of the Oregon Indian
War claims of 1854-.):
Dear Sir:—Yopr favor of the 23d inst. I re
ceived this morning relative to the Oregon
claims for Indian outrages. The Oregonians
have no just claims for outrages committed by
Indians. They have already, received from the
United States Government five times as much as
they were entitled to for outrages which they
committed upon the Indians, and which were
the cause of the war.
If you or any one else desire to be informed, or
to learn the canoe of the Indian war in Oregon,
I could refer you or them to Col. Cram's report,
called for by Judge Olin (residing in Washington),
when he was in Congress, at the commencement
of President Lincoln s adMittistration, I believe in
1861 and 1862. Also, with my correspondence
with the Third Auditor relative to the Indian wer

A visit during the past few days to several of our
largest w holesale establishments' in various lines of
mercantile pursuits, reveals the fact; that, although we
have heard of but little else than the cry of dullness,
sales since the Ist of January last compare favorably
with those of any former year of our existence. There is
this difference. Transactions have been smaller, but
they were more numerous. and in the aggregate they
foot up well. In some branches, trade for two months
past is reported to have been even more
active than is usual at this season of the
year, and much more healthy. Country dealers have .
generally been baying "frem hand to rnouth"-the dread -
of a further decline in prices operating to render them
cautious With regard to the trade oaring the coming
Spring, the prospects are quite flattering. Collections
