A grand celebration of the birthday of Samuel Hahneman came off at Philadelphia, on Tuesday evening. Among the exercises was an essay on the “ Philosophic View of Homoeopathy,” by Dr. J. P. Date, of Pittsburgh. It is highly spoken of. Tbe provisions of the new Prohibitory law of New York are very stringent. It forbids the sale, keeping for sale, or giving away of intoxi cating liquors, except by regularly authorized persons, for manufacturing, medicinal, chemical and sacramental purposes, nor can they be kept at &U, except in dwclliog houses not connected with shops or places of amusemeat, in church es, manufactories, and iu actu&l transportation. The section forbidding the granting of any more liquor shop licenses takes effect immediately; that providing for agents to sell liqoor for the purposes authorized by the act, goes into opera tion on the Ist of May, and the rest of the act on the Fourth of July. Hardly djjreek passes now without bringing reports of*' more committed by the Spanish-authorities of Cuba upon the vessels and citizens of the United States. Our chips are fired upon by Spanish tinned vessels very fre quently. The right*of search in tho most inso lent form is practiced. Our citizens on the island are arrested and imprisoned without 'cause ; and, in faot, if it was the desire of the Spanish government to force a war upon this country it could not pursue a course of conduct better calculated to produce that result. And to that termination our Spanish difficulties will un doubtedly come at last. The next Congress will betray its trust, and degrade the American mme, if it does not provide for the most prompt and vigorous measaree to punish and stop such gross and repeatoJ indignities to our flag and our country. No other nation would have en dured them half so long. No other strong na tion would ever propose to negotiate with the Spanish government in tbe midst of such re peated and continued insults. Two American ehip3 have been fired upon quite lately without any cause, or any ground of suspicion. And we are glad to learn that oar government is now Bending a strong naval force to the Cuban wa ters; and a collision with Spanish cruisers is not at all improbable. Wo can even hope that such will: be the result. Chastisement has been oag delayed ; and should be meted out iu full measure now. We aro no advocates for war ; but wc would stako every thing upon the preser vation of the national honor. These Spanish outrages can bo no longer endured with honor; or made mere topics for protracted negotiation. Tbo N. Y. Times, of the 11th, Bays: 44 We have no doubt of the faot, stated yester day, that orders have gone to the vessels of.our Home Squadron r - to sink any foreign cruiser which shall again attempt to exercise tbo right of search as against an American vessel on tho High Seas.” Such orders as that will bring things to an issue right speedily, and properly too. Weshall not bo surprised to hear soon of some Spanish: cruiser • being sent to tho bottom of tho sea. Some Ingraham can win d laurel thero that will givo great satisfaction to the whole American people. Americans may differ as to the desire to acquire Cuba by purchase or otherwise ; but they aro of one mind and ono heart as to the preservation'.?! nation a! honor, and the chastise ment of insolent foes. There is no danger that England and France will back Spain in regard to tho lato-insults to our flag. They could not thus outrage public sentiment and the laws of na tions : and their hands arc full of another war that requires all their skill and strength and available means. Wo hope the President’s instructions will be carried out promptly, and to the letter, come what may of it. Let England and France join Spain if they will, and thus perfeot their manifest conspiracy against freodom; this nation cannot falter when its righto are invaded or its flag insulted. Xho rulers of European nations, while plotting and warring to crush out the liberties of mankind, .would do well to refleot on the truth of Byron’s eloquent lineß in relation to this country, writ ten thirty-fivo years ago: “ Still «»ne great clime, in full and free defiance, Yet rears her crept, unconquered and sublime, ljojond tbe far Atlantic!’' Taxing Cijuhch Propehtt. —Mr. Kirkpatrick has introduced in the House of Representatives & bill to repeal the law which exempts church property from taxation.

THE NEWS. SPAKISn OUTRAGES, ■ t’ ' \ • . t V VI ft* ' ' f Mr. Couldaclc M Luke Fielding. If we award to modern dramatio literature, a tangible and independent existence, we muet bo qualify and circumscribe that existence as to bring it within very- narrow limits.- It bearß no proportion to the mejsßtio, 'heaven-stretching Shakespearian oak—it Ib an incipient budding, stunted at that, scarce aspiring to sun itself in the light of heaven. If there had been created no sun or moon, we would now be wondering at the magnitude and brilliancy of Mars, Venus and Orion: so, if Shakespeare had not lived and written, perhaps we of this modorn day would rank old Marlowe and Ben Jonson, Bulwer, Sergeant Talfohrd and Milman, as the High Priests of the dramatio temple, standing, like ono of Milton’s creations, *' In shape and gesture proudly eminent.” - The author Of ‘'Richelieu,” is, beyond all por adventure, the Magma Apollo of modern drama tists. We regard Bulwer’s mind as one of the moßt notable of the ago ; combining in a singu lar manner many of the requisites of a great dramatist. Talfourd comeß next. Then perhaps we may venture to mention the name of Sheri dan Knowles, who, lacking genius, iB endowed with a nice taste and a keen appreciation of art. Amerioa, perhaps, has produced one or two, Sargent and Boker, who may aspire to mention in the same category. Then conics a lower class —a tiers etat —of dra matic writers, composed of men particularly re markable as beiDg remarkable for nothing in par ticular—men of no genius at all, but in whom the caccelhes scribendi has been unusually developed, which “fatal faoility,” joined to a certain knowl edge of stage effect and spectacle, has deluged this world of. ours with a most lamentable flood of rant, bathos and arrant nousenßO. Of Buoh are most of our modern melo-dramas and five act comedies. But even in this dull expanse of human stupidity, a faint star occasionally glit ters forth with trembling ray, and heaven bo praised for the solitary visitation ! In this lower class, wo place Dion L. Bourci cault, author of the “ Willow Copse,” but are disposed to regard him as one of those excep- tional stars which relieve the general obsourity. His “London Assurance” may safely bo labelled “S,” for “stupid,” and ought to havo been laid away upon the shelf of oblivion “ long, loDg ago.” Unlike some of his illustrious compeers, Bouroicault has not been voluminous. So far $s we know, we can count his plays on our fingers. “Bob Nettles” is a fair sample; and a more triumphant piece of literary humbug never was plaoed in prompt- r’s hand?. “Janet Pride,” re* cently brought out in New York, was early doomed to an untimely grave. Why, then, it may bo asked, do we elevate Bourcieault to the dignity of a “shining light” in the “dull ob soure.” Simply, because ho wrote tho “Willow Copse.” It was.an era in his existence, when he conceived that play. A burßt of inspiration, such as ho never before experienced, and will, wo fear, never again experience, must have whelmed him when tho character of Luke Field ing becamo a living idea in his soul. He Bhould stick a pin there in his history. Thero is genius in tho creating and putting together of the Willow Copse. It is a masterly drama of the affections, without its peer in the whole r&ngo of dramatic literature. It has novelty and originally. There is no straining of nature. It is a simple talo of life, well told. It is a hit—a sucoess, and Bour cieauit is a star ! Bat softly ! A query arises. If it was a fortunate moment that conceived Luke Fielding, was it not still more a lucky chance that placed tho old farmer in Couldock's hands? Yea, verily 1 Had not he donned the b.-oad brimmed ha\and the fustian coat, we fear Rose’s sorrows would have gone unwept, and “Bill ” have been “blowing” to unsympathising empty boxes. In France, when an aotor assumes a new role, they say ho is about to create the character. However disagreeable to autorial vanity it may be, tho expression, after all, seems just. Has not Couldock created Luko Fielding ? And wbat is that creativo power but god-like Genins? “Genius,” says Frederika Bremer, “ is baptized with fire—baptized to independent power; forever drawing from tho treasuro of its own inward wealth—forever creating like a God !” Let us look very hastily at some of tho start ling points of tho play, premising our glanco with ono remark : Tho provinoe of the critic is bounded by limits palpable and well defined ; not waving, shadowy and mobilo like tho rings of Batura. lie must be divested of all personal likes and dislikes; he must look upon Smith, not sb Smitb, hut aB Hamlet or Jemmy Twitoh cr, or whatever character Smith personates; where faults glaro out, he must recognize and condemn them bravely, boldly; whero virtues exist, he must not withhold the just meed of praise. In law, whero there is no evidenco against the accused, the Jadge has a right so to charge tho jury. So, in criticism, whero tbe eye can discern no fault, it is tho critic’s high privilege to bestow all praise, bearing in mind tbe pleasant reflection that critioism does not necessarily involve ceusuro and condemnation. We may therefore escape tho charge of wholesale flattery and falsomo adulation, when wo pro nounco Mr. Couldock’e personation of the char actcr of Luko Fielding faultiest, and being fault' less too much praise cannot be bestowed upon it Luke Fielding is an honest, simple-hearted* illiterate English farmer. In bis earlier years ho had married a noble wife, wbo bore him five children—four sons and a daughter. Sorrow and sickness came, and the broken-hearted pa rents followed “their boys—their noble boys” to “the cold graveyard.” Tho fond mother’s heart was severed—“ the blow was hard, for she died of it." Thus Luko was left alone in the world, with an infant daughter, whom he was wont to fold in his bosom, and his tears would fall upon his cheeks while his “darling Bose, his only ono," would lift her little face “ and kiss ’em off.” Year followed year, and Rose ripened into beautlfuL, blushing maidenhood In an evil hour, her fair famo was tarnished* Sir Richard Vaughan was the destroyer of her honor. We shall not rehearse tho minor inci dents of the plot. We come at onoo to the soene where Luke first learns tho torriblo secret Rose had written to her father, acknowledging her guilt aud avowing her-inteution to destroy her self. In tbe act of accomplishing her purpose, aliens surprised and prevented by Miss Lucy Vanguard. For her friend's sake, Lucy allows, the letter (which b*jars to bo attrib uted to herself. Then comeß sorrow and anguish to Lucy’s friends, and Luke endeavors to p&oify the anger and assuage tbe woe of Col. Vanguard. Iu tbe meantime, Rose confesses to Lacy’s be trothed that tbe letter was hers.. This expla nation is made to Col. Vanguard, who is happy again. The parties are ail upon the stage. Con gratulation illumines every countenance but Rose Fielding’s. • She is in tears. Luke thinks this strange. Why should “his darling, his only one" be weeping ? “Crying? what, Rose? Why, what’s matter ?" Rose answers not. He appeals to Col. Vonguard, but the Col. dare not break the awful intelli gence. Luke beseeches him to read tbe letter, but in vain. Slowly, slowly, inch by inch, Lake has been approaching Col. Vanguard, who sits at & table with the fatal letter in his hand; a final appeal is made, but still in vain, and Luke, with a sudden movement, snatches the letter. He is transformed into a fiend. His pale cheek has turned blood-red. Ho knows not what the letter contains, but suspicion pierces his soul like a poisoned dagger. Col. , Vanguard and another remonstrate with him, anil implore him to return the letter. With tho at oused fury of a tiger, he shouts, “Colonel, stand back, and you, Sir, stand hack; this letter’s /mine, mine t mine!” Luke cannot read. No perform that duty for hixn. His eye casts ov kis weep- ir- \ mg daughter, and he says, “Since I oan't put i faith in any on ye, why”—he walk* slowly across 1 the stage and takes her haod—“ you, Rose, ehall , lead it I” Again Col. Vanguard interposes to avert the impending denouement , but Luke’s | thunderous “stand back!” is the knell to all hope. Rose kneels upon the earth, and her voice is stifled. Bat she must read it—“its her fey ther who commands her!” While the trembling voice of Rose is proclaim ing her own dishonor “in accents wild,” an awful transformation is taking place in the per- I son of her father, who stands over her. There is suoh a thing as face-acting, but it is seldom seen as in this instance- The old man’s coun tenance mirrors every emotion of his soul, just as the sea does the clouds and the sun and the stars. It was awful! Tho letter iB read. In the depth of his agony ho utters with a calm voice—the calmness of desperation—these fear fully significant words, il yetyou live still! Bat we cannot extend our remarks on this Boene farther. As a piece of acting, it is beyond criti cism. Common praise would bat faintly givo ut terance to our admiration of it. And the space we have already ocoupied admonishes ns to be brief with the remaining scenes. We can only | revert to tho fearful scene whero Luke gives up his farm to his daughter and then calls on her to “render np her account." “ You bear my name and what have you done with it! ! ’ was thrilling ly spoken. Agony, iatenao agouy, tho utter an guish of a heart-broken father, was ooncentrated in every wo d. To have seen the old man sweat drops of blood would not have astonished üb. I Then comes an awful scene. lie is aboat foroing | from Rose tho name of her Bcducer. A knock is heard at the door, and a voice cries “Rose!” Mad with frenzy, Luke silences his daughter's screams with bis palm and drags her towards tho door. lie seizes a hatchet from the wall— tho door opens—he is ready to strike—it is Bir Richard Vanghan—tho hatchet falls from his hand, and Lake reels to tho floor—a maniac! Years pass away. Rose has become tho bride of Sir Riohard. Luke wanders, a beggar in the London. By accident ho is introduced to her splendid house. Recognition follows. All is well. Throughout the play, Mr. Couldock’s noting ie unapproachable. Wo desire to see notbirg better, and wc say so conscientiously. Wo could elaborate onr views of the piece still further but aro compelled to close with the hope that Bour olcault may write more suoh characters and that Couldock may create them. 25ew President of Adami Express Com- We find in the Boston Traveler the following ing extract in relation to tho recently elected President of tho Adams Express Company: George W. Cass, of Pittsburgh, Pa., Director of the western division of the Adams Express j business, was, last week, elected President of ! the Company, t>»cr Alvin Adams, Esq., resigned. Mr. Cass, though a graduate of West Point, never songht military employment, but, follow ing the bent of his talents and inclinations, be came an active business man. For five years past, he has been identified with tho immense freight transportation of Adams & Co., between Philadelphia acid the western States ; and In the organization of the Adams Express'Co ,in 1854, he took a leading port. The olectioQ in question took placo at New York. As to the selection, wo arc of opinion a fitter one could not easily have been made. Hero, in Pittsburgh, where Mr. Cass is best known, bo is respected and admired by tho en tire business community, as a business man and a citizen. Tho Adams Express Company, of which Mr. been elected President, is a. joint stock association, formed July 1,1854, under the laws of New York, with somo forty stockholders resi ding in Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecti cut, New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Geor gia and Ohio, and who are indiridually liable for all the losses and contracts of tho company. The business is conducted by nioo managers, who are large shareholders, and tho property and effects are vested in three Trustees. Tho Adams Express Company have no connection with the suspended firm of Adams & Co , San Francisco. Tho latter are Bankers and Bill Drawers, while the former do nothing but a le gitimate Express business throughout tho Atlan tic States; hence, tho failure of the San Frao o'ibco house will iu do way affect the Exproes Company. A “Foreigner” After Office.—A commit tee of the New York city corporation wa9 in session, inquiring not into tbe capacity, but the nativity of tho various members of tho po lice department, nod tboso who were applicants for appointment, and among tboso cximined under oath, was John Mills, who testified as follows: I wad not born in this country, but 1 never hailed from anywhere else ; 1 never lot any body know 1 was not born in the Uoitod States; I was for many years in the Navy of the Uniteddtatee; I havobeen wounded ia five places, but not dis abled in any shape or form ; I served in the ware of 1812 and 1815, and was in the Algerine war; Ogden Hoffman aud Commodore Wilkeß, the ex plorer, were midshipmon with me; in tho late war with Great Britain I was not iu tho regular eervioe ; I was in a privateer; I was taken pris oner, aud carried to Bermuda, and kept thoro for ten mouths, with a log tied to my leg part of tho time ; after tho peace I went into the regular service, with Decatur, in the Mediterranean sqaadron; I was a warrant officer in the service; my time in the police was up on the 19th of last mooth ; I want to be ro appointed, but i suppose lam too old and grey-hoaded for that; I think I could serve four years longer. Maize in the United States.— Reoeot inves tigations provo tho faot that cora is the most important crop of the United States. Although its cultivation is moßtiy confined to a belt of thirteen degrees, yet it shows a largo surplus over the other principal orops: Increase of Indian Corn 58 per cent. Increase of Wheat 1G per cent. Inorease of Oats 20 per ceut. Increase of Wool 60 per cent. Increase of Cotton 24 per coat. Increase of Potatoes none... Increaso of Tob&coo ..V none. The oensus shows that the five Btates, includ ing Western Pennsylvania and Western Virginia, in the valley of the Ohio, famish half the amount prodacod in the Union. Though cotton has in creased, it has not half bo rapidly as maiza. The latter is destined to become the groat staplo of our commerce. The export hitherto has not equalled our domestio consumption, but the cli mate in Europe is not adapted to its cultivation, and foreign demand ia on the increase. It is estimated that 60,000,000 bushels, or 1,600,000 tons, are transported annually in bulk, within the States. 8,000,000 hogs aro prepared for market every year, of which 2,000,000 are fatted on com, consuming 200,000 tons. Tho manu factnre of 000,000 barrels of whisky consumes 100,000 tunß. 160,000 tuns are used in cattle feed. Tho aggregate amount for 1849 60 iq two million tons. According to tho current increase, in 1860 nine hnndred millions of bushels will enter into commerce, or three million tons, whioh will famish cxolubivo employment for 4,000 miles of railroad.— Dttroit Fret fVew. gggF* As a mail oarrier on horsebaok was crossing a stream running into the river Tyne, his horse became restive and threw both mail bags and rider into the brook, whioh was run ning very fall on account of late rains.

The first letter delivered after the ac cident contained a large amount of money, the owner of which presented tho gallant dog with a collar. £3-Neuralgia*— This formidable disease, which seems to baffle tho skill of physicians, yields like magic to Carter’s Spanish Mixture.

Omer Pasha arrived at the allied camp on the 12th. On tho 13th, the Russians opened a fire from I tho heights of BaUkfava, when the English, as- I sisted by Gon. ICooyes, routed them.

I Napoleon and the Empress will visit Victoria •lon tho 16th of April. Franco agrees, sajß tho Morning Herald, to. send 50,000 additional troops to the Crimea, af ter the Conference, provided Eogland furnishes the means of conveyance. It is understood that the Conference agreed upon the two first pofuts, and that the critical third point, on which the question of peace or war turns, is under consideration, and would oc* oupy several days. The demolition of Sebasto pol is notdomaoded. On the other hand anott er despatch says all conjectures as to results are idle. Sardinia is in the English market for a loan of £2,000,000 at 4 per cent. lu toe Commons tho second reading of the bill to abolißh newspaper stamps, passed by a large mojority. Sir Charles Wood stated that it was intended as soon as the ports on tbeß<io and labile Sea wero open, to establish a strict blockade. The committee of inquiry into the conduct of tho war continued their sessions; tho revelations are still more appalling. At the annual meeting of the British and American Land Co. a highly satisfactory exhibit | of the state of its affairs was made. L ATES x—Vienna, 27th, evening.—The state of the political homon is again becoming gloomy, and the conference of the day previous on the 3d point was in anything but a satisfactory con dition, what is required of Russia being very disagreeable. Prince Gortschakofl arrived at Sebastopol on the 20th March. On the thirteenth, tho Turkish cavalry made a sortio and were repulsed. On the 17tb, three battalions of Zouaves attacked a new Rassian redoubt, bat were driven back with great loss. On tho night of the 15th, tho French troops car ried a line of ambuscades occupied by Russian sharp-shooters; at the same time the Russians made a sortie but wero repulsed. Iu tho Commons, Mr. Phinn moved an address to the Qaccn, praying that in the peace negotia tions exertious bo made for tho reconstruction of Poland. After debate, iir which Lord Pal merston opposed the motion on the ground of crooting greater difficulties, it’ was withdrawn. Tho bulk of tho British fleet was at Spithcad, ami wawexpeeteiMp sa*|on the 2d of ApriL; Parliament has agreed to Sardinia's reqUeßt for a loan of £2,000,000; one million to be im mediately advanced from tho publlo,treasury and tho other million a year hence, if necessary. A Madrid correspondent of the London Times states that tho Spanish Cabinet has been discus sing tho strong note addressed to the "Govern ment ty Lord Bowden, tho British Minister, on the eabject of religious basis, , and it was a question whether the letter should rot be re-' turned to the author. Howden got a scent of tb 13 and threatened that if such insult was of fered he would, within six houra, suspend all intercourse with the Spanish government A satisfactory adjustment is looked for.
