Worrompondence of tho Philadelphia Eveuing Bulletin.) ltonv, March, 1868.—We have cause to proud of our people, in whatever occupation they may he engaged In foreign countries. I have no sym- patby with the few, very few, thank Heaven, of our country people who, having been enter tained in English homesteads, imagine that be cause everything in and around an Englishman's castle is perfect in its arrangements, the broad, mouthing articulation of every word he utters is perfect also. To hear an American sneer at our English longue and call it American language ir ritates me beyond endurance, and throws me into the state of the man whose cart was upset on a bill and all the heavy stones rolled oat, when he stood quietly regarding them, and was asked by a bystander "why he did not swear or something." " ph," he replied, "It is beyond words!" But to the point. Entering the Banker's office on the Piazza di Spagna, and turning to the lists of "AltrisE. , ROME," "Barristi, Ansarscass and ITALIAN," . I naturally rend over the list of "FEMALE -s, AlrrliT." "THEM STUOMVISEId Itssonnsons"iirst. It is a most excellent practice, adopted by all American and English residents - in any European city, to enter their names and addresses at the Banker's. and have it fully understood that their country men will be expected, on their arrival. to send their cards and hotel addresses and receive an im mediate response in the way of an invitation to their regular weekly 'receptions." These recep tions are entertaining beyond measure. There are professional men of every callings women whose names arc known thronghout the civilized world, and revered for the fame they have won by perseverance through trials not dreamed of. by those who purchase and admire their works of art. Theta: i 4 re eight hundred American visitors in Rome, and about two hundred resi dents who entertain them. Miss Emma Stebbins, the first female artist on the list, is so fortunate as to be domiciled with our great favorite, Miss Charlotte Cushman, and her nephew, now connected with our Consnlate. In that house centre all attractions that art, in telliaence, refinement and the most exquisite trite can combine. Six beautiful salons, en .ruffle, are brilliantly illuminated. Enter with me. At lie door we arc met by an Italian usher, who eonducta - us to the billiard room, where the table is covered, aid piles of opera -cloaks, shawls and hoods reveal the number who have arrived before [lr. Disrobing of our wrappings, we are conducted to the ssand ssles... Who is that tall, corn n;anding woman, with silver hair, and :urrowed brow, brit with an eye bright, piercing, and • yet expreasive of a ran b• gentle nature? It is Miss Cushman. Ars you the Abbe Liszt, the great composer,upon whom the Pope has conferred honorary saintehip? She bows respectluily,grests you as 'lather," and her . voice mellows to soft tones as the Italian wonis roll from her month as If she had been born uniler'the skies of Italy. Your silk robe, silk . statk r inettes and buckled shoes must soon mingle with the rich evening silks, satins and velvets of Engliseh,Ronnin andsSmerican nobility: Lady Montague, the Princess Doria, Count Cen el, grand-nephew to the unfortunate Beatrice, jet t men Meade, Rogers, Mozier, Bierstadt, Hazel tine, the sculptor, and his brother, the landscape painter; Harriet Roamer, Misses Williams, Miss Foley, our American physicians, ministers, ex plorers and correspondents of journals in every city, almost, of the United States! All mingle, talk and admire the statuary, paintings, sketches, photographs, ornaments of decoration from every discovered land, nearly all gifts, as tributes to the great genius and marvellous endurance of the woman who once electrified crowded au diences with her peraona.tions of Shakespeare's greatest characters, and who now throws a spell of enchantment around her that the most indif ferent nature cannot resist. We have reached the last room, carried there by the crowd of ladies whose trains have battled the efforts of gallants to be graceful in avoiding them. and would have puzzled Beau Brummel. But hark ! music ! ! We slip out of the room by a door, unobserved under its heavy velvet hang ings Ly the uninitiated, and re-enter the grand galon ,where Miss Cushman is seated at the piano, and sings, "Mary, call the cattle home, across the sands o' Dee !" We forget where we are. We start with the timid Scotch girl from the fishing banks. The rising storm swells the flood and overwhelms her frail boat, and we see her float ing on the foaming waves, while her golden hair gleams in braidit across her pale dead face. We hear her father's groans and sad lament, and "long after she is buried, we fancy in the evening hour we hear her voice, calling the cattle home"! Not a breath in those rooms but was suspended while the last, low notes of the spirit echoings died away! Many a tear was furtively brushed off of fair, aye, and manly cheeks. A burst of applause followed this painful silence, and a smiling, graceful acknoWledgment from the hostess, her color heightened by the emotion of her song, were the only indications of consciousness of the effect produced by consummate acting that in terpreted Nature itself! I might follow her to the "meet" on the Campagna, and speak of her skill at the chase, but other stars that do credit to our flag in Rome claim a share of attention. A fox chase amongst the ruins on the Campagna will term part of a future epistle. The studios of our artists might be mistaken from external appearances for carriage houses and livery stables, or perhaps for flour mills! A long narrow street, lined on both sides with high houses, having small windows and Immense barn doors; a white card; sometimes three on each, with the name of the tenant scribbled, and first, second or third,Tourth, fifth or sixth piano (which means story) indicating the level on which the statuary, not the aspirations, of the artist arc based. We take a curious, antiquated looking boll handle, pull it down, and a loud ring on the other side of the door startles us almost as much as the sudden opening of both doors that swing nearly across the street as they open outward. A. white pantalooned, white aproned and white capped individual, intensely black eyes and hair, conducts us through a room where , a number of his ao-laborers, that is, ein-stousecUtters, are pick ing, hammering, chiseling and polishing figures, groups and statuettes in every stage of progress, while the air is felled with marble dust that, sot , tling on their eyebrows and yhiskers, gives' it half wierd, half corniest expreselon that.4rOuld make them good models -if 03e French nation should suddenly be extinguished . and artists. could not import others. No Roman la allowed to pose PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, APRIL 9, 1868. nude, under penalty of ,excommunication from the Church; consequently tke French Academy planted on the Pincian 11111, to the disgust of the Italians, furnishes models from the city where our modistes get their fashions—Paris. Par exeni pie, in the Villa Borgbe'se Pauline Bonaparte reclines luxuriously on a lounge, and two sofa pillows, all 'of marble, with very little drapery, while her face,cold, proud and shameless, repeatl the story that is told of her. When a friend asked her "how she could ever consent to pose for that figure?" "Oh," she replied, 'We room was rery comfortable and warm!" As a work of art, the Venus Victrix is exquisitely 'beautiful, hut the sister of the first Napoleon here represents a painful contrast to the lovely, modest Josephine, his wife, whose heavenly sweet expression is that of life itself, as she kneels, her crown fallen from her bowed head, at the revered tomb in the little church of Mal- Immortelles, in wreaths and garlands, hang around the railings of that cherished spot, renewed by loving hands. Strangers stand off, struck with admiration perhaps, but more with wonder, at the monument of a vain French woman in the Borghese Palace. Well, really, I beg your pardon, but I must leave you without .an introduction to the, fair artist who has so kindly opened her doors to us, and return with you, in time for the neat mail. Death of an Old Philadelphian. John W. Ashatead, Esq., a well known mem ber of the bar, died at Clinton Place, New Jersey, on the 7th inst. Mr. Ashmead was admitted to - practice In this City 1827; and 'he soon - made his mark as an advocate and counsellor. He took an active part in the Native American move ment, and at one time he held the position pf If'Alited States District Attorney in this city. About ten or twelve years ago he removed to New York, and one of the first cases In which he was retained •in that, city, was that of an Italian tamed Cancemi, who was charged with murder. gr. Ashmead managed the case with great skill, •,t,d although his client was convicted, through pertinacity and the careful 'availing himself of ;very advantage which the/ penal laws of New York afford, he contrived to save Cancemi from the gallows. His success in this case gave him a high reputation as a criminal lawyer, and he njoyed a large share of practice at the New -York bar. He was in the sixty-second year of his age at the period of his death. TIIEATILES, Etc.

HOME FOR FRIENDLESS CIIILDREN.—The great good accomplished by the Camden Home for k needless Children during the past three years,has made such a favorable impression upon the public minds that the managers now believe they will BOOR be able to enlarge the accommodations of this benevolent institution. It is their intention as soon as sufficient means have been obtained to erect a suitable and more capacious building than they now occupy,lurnished with all the conve niences necessary for the comfort of the little oneslconfided to their keeping. The Home now embraces the entire First Congressional District. During the past winter it has been full, and many applications were turned away, n consequence of want of accommodations. , AN 13WORTANT CHANGE.-133 , a provision of the now charter for the city of Camden, the day for holding the municipal elections has been `changed from the second Tuesday' in March to the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November the day on which, the general State tlection is'held.

There are several other cases of interest to be tried, which will most likely continue the term for at least six weeks. .I . 3IPROVF.3IENTS AT ATLANTIC CITY.—The large number of Improvements now going forward in Atlantic City makes things in that place exceed ingly active.. Every mechanic is busily en gaged, and many from Philadelphia are there at work.

Sr. Lotus; April B.—An Omaha special des patch to the St. Louis Democrat says that the Indian agents and contractors for Indian goods are suppressing authentic reports and doing everythingin their power to prevent the true state of affairs from being made public. The fol lowing are only a part of the depredations re cently committed by the Indians. During the last week in March a ranch on the Bitter Cotton wood, twenty miles west of the Cheyenne and Fort Fetterman road, was attacked by Indiana, who killed one boy and carried off the ranch man's wife and the owner of the ranch. One boy escaped to a neighboring ranch, where seven white men were lodged. The Indians attacked the house, but were repulsed. Sn the 22d of March a party of one hundred Indians attacked the Horse Shoe ranch, forty miles west of th 6 road, and .occupied by a man named Worrell, formerly of the Eleventh Ohio cavalry, his partner. named Thornburg, and an other man. Having , plenty of ammunition the whites defended the ranch until daylight and then escaped into an underground passageway with loop-holes, whence they kept tin the tire killing two Indians and wounding several. Iu the mean time the Indians burned the building, stables and outhouses, which were valued at-about $6,- 000. The next day Mr. liSrorrelfs party escaped to the Irvin Spring — ranch, three miles east, where four more whites were lodged. The entire party started for Cottonwood ranch, fifteen miles distant, arid after proceeding six miles they were attacked by a band of sixty Indians. A long fight ensued, in which three men, named Harper, David Dumpier and another white man, were killed, and Mr. Worrell was wounded. The Indians lost five killed. The parties then held a council, and the Indians agreed that if the whites would return with tly:tu to the Irvin Spring ranch and give, tip their goods they would be allowed 16 go without further molestation. guying no - option the wtatc§ C9ln• plied with these terms. After plun dering the ranch the Indians set fire to the buildings. Mr. Worrell and thice *tilers were brought in by a company of troops. The killed were buried where they were found. On the 31th of March a ranch on the road between Cheyenne creek and Fort Fetterman was burned,hat as ye t nothing has been heard from the occupants. The Indians are still stealing stock and committing depredations unchecked. The settlers in the neighborhood of Forts Fetterman and Laramie have all gone to the Military posts for protec tion. - - A despatch of }larch 25 says: Two settlers living on La lioata creek were attacked isv seventy Indians yesterday, and their buildings and farming property destroyed. The men es caped t. Fort Fettesznan. . CRIME. THE MURDER •F WAKE% MORE& Inquest and Verdict or the Coroner's Jury. Orr", WA, Ontario, April 6, evening. --The inquest con tinued at 4 P. M., Mr. telteilly, Q. C., appearing for de ceased statesman's friends and relatives, and r.. Lee. Crown attorney, for the Crown. Before proceeding to give an idea of the evidence I may mention that the authorities here are convinced that W helan, alias Sullivan, is the man who tired the fatal shot. Whoever fired it must have been accreted in one , f the neighboring cmorways, and have tired on his vic tim trout thence. It is thought McGee had a premoni tion that something wait wrong when he came to the door-step, or he saw the man move at a distance bei ore he tired, for It is said Melee's hand rattled the latchkey against the door as if he was knocking instead of opening it with his key. The man Whelan, who has eeen arrested, is spoken of as a man vphe used to frequent a public noose, nearly opposite Mrs. McKenna's. at night; end it is said to have been remarked that on some of those occasions lately, he wore moccasins—some thing then retrial ked as extraordinary. Whe lan has, it is avowed, been a Fenian. 4iuce he lived in Quebec, two years ago. Then he worked as regimental tailor, and was known as John e ;Oliva n. Ile recently came to Ottawa, and was em ployed by Mr. Paegleeon, merchant tailor, and other parties A rumor-was recently prevalent that the pris oner Whelan. some few weeks since, had concealed in his bed a revolver, and during the time the servant of his boarding-house was making the bed she acci dentally pulled the trigger of the weapon, and one of the chambers, being loaded with ball and cattridee , lodged a ball in her ann. The local authorities, from, these ruiners; naturally sus pected him. , Some detective:: Linore telegraphed tor to Montreal and the man /Wit night arrested. In his possession was found a revolver, one chamber of which had been recently discharged, together w ith ammunition, tee.
