ST. HELENA ISLAND, S. C., March 13, 1863.
THE REMOVAL OF GEN. N A.GLEE. -
You have doubtless been apprised before this of
the removal of. Gen. Naglee. Although`several
causes have been assigned for the " protest" which
he sent to Gen. Hunter ,the truth of the matteris as
follows:
Gen. Naglee, knowing that Gen. Foster's com
mand was, owing -to - some detay or misunder
standing, inefficiently supplied with ammunition,
equipments, and transportation, thought that they
should not be taken into action while in this condi
tion. Therefore, he entered his protest.
This very-condition of Foster's troops has delayed
the eontemplated expedition under General Hunter,
audit is not till these deficiencies are supplied that
the expedition will move. Through misrepresenta
tions of some kind or another, General Hunter is
known to have taken .umbrage at this protest of
General Naglee, knowing that neither he nor Gen.
Naglee could have anything to do with the condition
of General 'Foster a troops upon their. arrlial - frthri,
North Carolina. „Generat - Hunter has - been further
aggravated by the receipt of numerous letters from
other high officers of the 18th Army Corps; on St.
Helena Island, protesting against and endeavoring
to prevent his raising colored troops, which he is
doing under special orders from the War Depart
ment. - -
This opposition has been carried so far, that cer
,taro high officers have placed subordinates under
arrest; for tenderins their services, it acceptable,lo
General Hunter for commands in colored regiments.
General Hunter had indicated a desire to have 'a
detail made Of such officers as had distinguished
themselves in battle for this service, and they were
only to be taken in such eases where it was mani
festly evident 'that no injury would result to the
Government or troops.
THE ORDER RELIEVING GEN. NAG-LEE.
Gen. Hinter has issued the following order, re
lieving General Harry-RI. Naglee, of Philadelphia,
from the command of the detachment of the 18th
Army Corps, on St. Helena Island, expressing; at
the same time, a full appreciation of the gallantry,
accomplishments, and distinguished services render
ed to the Government by the gallant young hero of
Seven Pines:
HEADQUARTERS DEPARTMENT OP THE SOUTH,
HILTON HEAD, PORT ROYAL, S. C.,
March 5, 1863.
SPECIAL ORDERS, No. 127.' •
Brig. Gen. Henry M. Naglee having sent a - third
insubordinate protest, much more objectionable than
the first,to these headquarters—his first having been -
disapproved by the honorable Secretary of War, who,
in consequence, directed that he be relieved from
duty in this Department, afterward leaving it op
tional with the commanding general to relieve Or re
tain him—the commanding, general, after very ma
ture reflection, and with a solemn sense of his re
sponsibilities to his country, sincerely believes that
the harmony of the Department and the best in
terests of the service require that Gen: Naglee should
be relieved from duty. The said Brig. Gen. Henry
M. Naglee is therefore hereby relieved from duty in
the Department of the South, and Brig. Gen. 0. S.
Ferry will assume command of all the United States
forces on St. - Helena Island. -
Brig. Gen.-Henry M. Naglee will proceed'to the
city of New York by the first steamer, and_ report by=
letter to the Adjutant General of the army:
By - command of Major Gen. HUNEER.
CHAS. G. HALPINE, A. A. G-., 10IhArmy Corps.
RESOLUTIONS OF THE FIFTY-SECOND
PENNSYLVANIA,
-It may not, therefore, be. uninteresting to con;
tinue the recital of occurrences since the order for
his removal was promulgated, by giving an account
of the various complimentary testimonials General
Naglee received from the officers of his command
prior to his departure. -
Among thefirst testimonials received- was a: copy
of a series of resolutions unanimously adopted by
the officers of the 52d Pennsylvania Volunteers, in
which the highest encomiums were passed upon the
' retiring general, founded upon a knowledge of the
gallant deeds he had performed as their commander
on the Peninsula. They.expressed"unabated confi
dence in their old general; and uttered a hope that
his separation from them would be but temporary;
NAGLEE'S OLD- BRIGADE SPEAK.
_
On Mondiy morning at 11 o'clock the officers of
General Naglee's old brigade (the First brigade of
Major General Peck's division) paid theierespects
to their late chief on board the flag-steamer T. F.
Secor, headed by their present commander, Colonel
W. W. IL Davis. Every_ regiment.and company in
the command were represented. They were accom
panied by the band of the old, brigade, composed
principally of members of the 81st New York Volun
teers; The regiments represented were the Blst New
York, 98th New York, 104th Pennsylvania, 62d
Pennsylvania, 11th Mame, 100th- New York, and
the Independent New York Battalion (Enfans
Perrin). The band occupied the hurricane deck of
the steamer, and as the officers of the several regi.i
ments took their positions - on the main saloon deck
played stirring patriotic airs.
Colonel Davis made an appropriate address,
which General Naglee replied to-in a touching and
eloquent manner. -
EVENING SALUTATIONS. -
- -
" At eight o'clock the same "evening. Gen. Steven;-
son, with officers of his . command,' together with
- Generals Heckrnanand Ledlie, - waited upon Gene-7..
ral Nagle° to tender their respects and express-their'
regret's at his departure. The band of the 10th COO,
neetieut and
.a fine glee club, composed of members
of the 24th Massachusetts, accompanied: the distill. ,
guished party. After - a number of choice airs had_
been played by the band, and some patriotic songs.
were well sung by the glee club, Gefieral..Naglee ad:
dressed General Stevenson and the officers. - of -his
brigade substantially as follows :
GEN. NAG-LEE'S SPEECH TO GEN. STEVEN
SON'S BRIG-ADE.
Girpromns OP GENERAL STEVENSON'S BRIGADE :•
met me thank you for this exhibition of your kind
and friendly feeling. Coming from the officers of
- Stevenson's brigade—the brave 10th 'Connecticut
and 24th Massachusetts, who took so prominent - a'
ppart in the gallant- deeds of Roanoke, Newbern, -
Kinston, and Goldsboro—this kind expression of
your feeling is the more appreciated. I feel that
this friendly consideration is less a compliment to
myself than it is an 'approval of my course in SUS
taining the 18th Army Corps of North Carolina, to
which you must naturally have attachment and pre
ference. But, my friends, let us look at our true -.
position; let us sink all personalities and localities;
let by-tones be by-gones, and let us remember al
' ways the great cause for which we have come to
gether., for which we are struggling. The issue is
far above the personal interests of one general or
another—far above one President or another—and
should be recognized in the sublime idea of the de
termination of all that _the Government established
in '76, whose influences have effected good to all
mankind, shall not be blotted - out; that the beacon
light, which, for over four score years has guided
the oppressed- of the whole earth, shall not be ex
tinguished;.that the influences -of freedom which
have gone on increasing from year to' year,rand
spreading from clime to clime, shall continue forever
and ever, to gladden the hearts of all mankind.
[Applause],
This is the view-in which I would have you take
this contest,. and I trust you will feel, as I do, that
no personal sacrifice is too heavy to be borne in
order to meet the exigencies of. arid' great occasion.
I had hoped to have led you to the fight. .I had pic
tured the emulation' that should and would exist
between the brave - men from North. Carolina and
those from the Peninsula (his old brigade), to whom
my affections bind me, and I had anticipated with
pride and satisfaction the gratulation of your
friends upon the accomplishment of results which
would wove important and enduring to our coun
try. But I will not enlarge upon- this theme.
Your intelligence has anticipated all I have said or.
May say. Your determination was made when you
left your wives and your children, and I know that
you only await the word to go on, and you will win
again, as yen have already won, and wear the proud
honor of having fought and suffered in defence of.
your country's flag: [Loud applause-] •
. ANOTHER DAY'S RECEPTION.
Following the above complimentary 'testimonials
came another on Tuesday morning, at eleven
o'clock. General Heckman, with the officers of the
old and gallant New Jersey 9th, :and the - 23t1 Massa
chusetts, and General Ledlie, 'with the officers
commanding eight batteries of the 3d New York
Artillery, waited on General Naglee, OR board, the
Secor. They were, like all the others, accompanied
by a band of music. General Heckman, who talks
as he fights, directly to the point, addressed Genera l.
Naglee as followa :
• GENERAL HECKMAN'S SPEECH.
GENERAL : WO haVe come to. bid you farewell.
We have come to offer that respect which is due
you, both as the high-toned gentleman we have ever
found you, and as the accomplished leader who has
commanded us. We deeply regret this separation.
We regret its causes.- We regret the manner in
which it was -brought about, and '
we regret the re
sults we may reasonably expect. You. carry with
you on 'your departure our hearts and our hopes,
and would to God you could carry-with you also our
persons and our arms.- [Applause.] But we hope
again to see you. We hope. again to be marshalled
' under your banners, and march to your word of corn: .
mend. A thousand God speeds will follow you as
you leave us ; and I know I express the heartfelt
feeling of every officer now present when I wish
-you every success
- as a man and a soldier. With my
whole heart,- General,- 1 bid you farewell.
.[Ap
plause.]
GF.NERAL NAG-LEE'S RESPONSE TO GENE
_ RAL HECIKAS AN. •
General Naglee responded in a very felicitous
manner. - Be 'cordially thanked the officers of the
renowned 9th 'New Jersey, the 23d Massachusetts,
and General Ledlie's artillery commands-for this
flattering reception. They had all seen active
service. - They had been in battles always -victor rious, and bore the scars which proclaimed their he
roism and their fidelity to the cause of their country.
He expressed his regret at the causes which re
quired his separation Mom the soldiers-he so highly
esteemed. He had done nothing more than what he
conceived to be his duty as the representative of .his ,
commanding officer, (Major General Foster.) He
had obeyed the orders of the Government, in resiat:
ing the bieaking up'of the detachment of the 18th
'Army Corps as it came from North Carolina,
and its separation and dispersion to distant
parts, both of men and material. He solemnly be;
lieved it to be required of him to conform with in-.
structions as they were received from. Washington.
The head of the Government was there, and from
that fountain all high military instructions should
legally flown , The occasion must be momentous, in
deed, when they can be disregarded. - -
Ile &aimed that his efforts, during all -his military
life, had been devoted to the instilling into the minds
of his officers and men the absolute necessity. of
strict obedience to orders. Without such obedience
to the rules and regulations of the service, without
such implicit compliance with the orders from com
manding authorities, the service would degenerate
into confusion and Chaos. While he, had protested
respectfully against the demands of the commanding
general of .the Department of the South, he. had
simplyobeyed - the orders as theyeame from Wash—
ington, in endeavoring to prevent the consolidation
of .the detachment of the 18th Army Coips, which
he had the honor to command, with the 10th Army
Corps. He urged -them to suppress all feelings of
- discontent' and disaffection, to banish all despond
ing fears, and to cultivate and cherish forever the
great sentiment of devotion. and fidelity to their
country they had always manifested on the,fleld of
battle; [Great applause].
:Upon. the conclusion of the-General's _remarka
each officer shook him by the hand, and many ex
pressed in a few brief words the regret they had at
separating, and the hope they entertained of agnin
being placed under-his command. After the exhibi
' tion of regard shown in the past few days towards
Gen: lis - glce, it would 1-e folly to attempt to conceal
the fact that he enjoys the unlitnited confidenee of
the officers au& large body of troops now on this

whereas, - the -put, Meat sentimeritwor many who have

A MARRIAGE IN THE ARMY.
IN CA P, NEAR FALMOUTH, March 13,1563.
MILITARY MARRIAGE IN CAMP—NOT A DRUM-HEAD
COURT MARTIAL, BUT. THE DRUM-HE AII BRINGS UP'
THE MARTIAL COURT-ING,
Yesterday was a gala day in' the camp of one •of
the brigades stationed here, or,•as One of the officers
present pronounced it, a " gal-a day." The•occa
sion was the marriage of Captain ~Daniel Hart,
CornpaiayT, 7th Regiment New Jersey -Volunteers,
to Miss 'Helen A. Lammond, of Washington, D. C.
Captain R. is one of the most popular officers of the
brigade, iand his friends were determined that
nothing should be wanting to make the day one of
unalloyed happiness. The camp, in anticipation
of the event, had been beautifully decorated with
evergreens and every preparation made to give eclat
to the affair. At precisely noon the regiment was
draWn un, forming three sides of a hollow square;
frontingthe canopy under which the ceremony was ,
to take place, when, the band playing " Hail to the
Gen, Hooker, -with his staff,- followed by a
large number of general officers, among whom were.
Generals Sickles, Berry, Birney; Mott, Carr, Re
vere, Bartlett, Ward, and others, proceeded to °eau--
PY a position on the left of an. altar extemporized
for •the occasion, and iornied of drums placed one
upon another.
Everything being in readiness, the bridal party,
consisting of the groom and bride, with Colonel.
Francine and Lieutenant Colonel Price as grooms
men; and Mies Ida Lammond (a.sister of the bride),
and Bliss Mollie Lewis, of Philadelphia, escorted by
a guard of honor (twelve officers of the regiment),
advanced to the canopy, where the worthy chaplain
of the 'regiment, the Rev. Dr. Rose, performed. the.
marriage ceremony in; the impressive Episcopal
form. As the party, advanced to their position they
were received by the regiment at a present arms.
After the marriage ceremony had been performed—
and this included the reading of the ".license"
granted by the clerk of the county of- Washing
ton, D. C., and approved by the Military Com
mandant of this district, and the witnessing of
the marriage certificate, which was signed by all
the prominent officers present—another very inte
resting ceremony took place, viz: the presenta
tion of a medal - to the Rev. Dr. Rose. The medal
Was one which - the members of Company E had
caused to be manufactured asa token of their esteem
for him and his bravery, as exhibited especially at
the battle of Williamsburg, where,. combining the
offices of surgeon and chaplain, he displayed great
gallantry and devotion in his attention to the
wounded, receiving two slight wounds on that occa
sion: The presentation was made by Gen. Hooker
in behalf of the company in one of his brief but ex
pressive speeches. The worthy reidpient gratefully
acknowledged the compliment, and the whole party
adjourned to a dinner which had been prepared by
the officers of the regiment—a dinner that would vie
with the finest'" set out" of our friends at home.
The sight of the table would have surprised those
who expect to find nothing in the army but "hard
tack" and salt pork. •
After dinner the tables were cleared, and the pa
vilion prepared fora grand ball in the evening.
Some twenty young ladies had accompanied the
bride from Washington, and this number was in
creased by the presence of a number of the wives of
officers, who are visiting their husbands in camp,
'making as fine a collection of youth and beauty as
has ever been witnessed in this part Of the Old Do-
. .
During , the evening there was quite a display of
fireworks, including a number of rockets, the sight
of which inust have puzzled the rebels amazingly,
and I' venture the assertion they attributed it to
every other cause than the right one.
The festivities continued .until the "we small
hours," and the company separated, each, declaring
it was the happiest wedding they had ever attended,
the married people each making one exception.
Major;General Sickles gives an entertainment to
the party this evening, and the party will return to
Washington to-morrow or the day following upon a
special train and boat.
The novelty of the affair, and the magnificent scale
upon which it has been conducted, have made it one
of the events of. the war, and an. event which will
long be remembered by_those who were participants.
The 'weather continues variable—sunshine and
shower, particularly the:shower—yet the' roads are
gradually improving under the influence of the high
winds which have prevailed of late. Already vege
tation gives indication of the approaching spring—
the grain fields and meadows beginning to assume a
green appearance. - - -
The rebels opposite us give evidence of their want
of forage by turning out their animals to graze upon
the budding, vegetation.
' ANOTHER REBUKE.'
C.uur NEAR BELLE PLAIT.; March 12, 1861
A meeting - of the officers and soldiers of the 150th
- Regiment Pennsylvania Volunteers was held at the

1E63, us pulling:rice of the following call signed by all
he fficers of the regfruent , -
The underilign.ed, ()Ulcers of the 160th Regin4nt
peunsylvania Volunteers, respectfully request Colo
nel Wider, commanding the regiment, to call a meet
ing for the purpose of expressing our earnest loy
alty and devotion to our country, and our detestation
of the Northern traitors now endeavoring to para
lyze the efforts of the army in the field, and insidi
ously to overthrow their country's cause.
Lieutenant Colonel Huidekoper was called to the
chair; and Adjutant R. L, Ashhurst appointed secre
tary.
The object of the meeting having been stated by
Major Chamberlin, after appropriate and patriotic
remarks: by Colonel Wieter, Adjutant Ashhurst,
Lieutenant Huidekoper, Private Philip. Hammer,
Co. A., Lieutenant Wm. P. Dougal, Co. D., and
Quartermaster`A. S. Voorhees, the following, pre
amble and resolutions, offered by Major Chamber
lin, 'were unanimously adopted amid great enthusi-
Wher . eas, After nearly n two years of the most patri
otic-sacrifices on the part of our people, and the
most desperate trials and struggles on the part of
Our army to restore our shattered Union and main
tain our national honor, our Government finds
itself assailed by a class of persons at home who
Would yield it, Judas-like, into the hands of the
enemy, or sully it by a - dishonorable compromise
with the hostaof treason, and who are even now/
trying to induce the masses to resist its lawful Wi
th ority in order the sooner, 'to gain their hellish
ends ; therefore .
• .
- Resolved, That we hereby express our firm and un
alterable devotion to our Government and its
laws, - and declare our determination to stand by it
at all hazards, pledging to the restoration of its en
tire, authority Four lives, our .fortunes, and our
sacred honor."
Resolved, That we, look upon all proposals, from
whatever source, _to give up
_this struggle on any
other terms than the unconditional submission of
the traitors in arms against - their country, as dis
graceful to those who origineN, and to those whO,
for a moment, lend an ear to them, _ •
Resolved, That we • condemn and . repudiate as,un
worthy sons of their country those who, staying,at
home in the North, are strivingto cripple the hands
of theft' country's deferideis ;- who"; under the garb
of a false - patriotism ;and imaksunied zeal for the
Constitution, cavil at all niet sur s calculated to pros
trate the rebellion, and who endeavor to hold back
and paralyze the strong arm , of right, now out
stretched to crush the foul treason which attacks the
life of the nation. •
ilcso/val, That we have no sympathy or feeling in
common with thoieWho, from real or_pretended ad
miration of any br general, would make their
earnestness in their country's cause, or perhaps their
loyally, ependant on, or subordinate to, their per
sonal ieelings; that we are ready and anxious' to
fight 'for our country. under whatever -commander
we may be placed, and under none with greater
alacrity than our present commander-ithchief.
' Resolved, That as we believe that "fighting for
Southern rights" means nothing more than warring
for the extension of slavery, which we regard alike
as a curse to the land, and a great moral wrong, we hail
with joy the President's- proclamation doing away
with that institution in every State in which rebel
lion exists, and hope soon to free it forever blotted
from our soil.
• Resolved, That _our feeling towards traitors, both
North and South, is one of implacable hatred, and
that, while this army has bullets for those at the
South, it has also heels broad enough and heavy
enough.to crush . the vile "copperheads" of the
North if they persist in their insidious attempts to
weaken and overthrow the Government,
"—Major ,Chamberlin, Capt. Widdis, Co. A; Capt.
Reisinger, Co. .11; - Quartermaster, Voorhees, and
Adjutant Ashhuret, were appointed'a committee for

fide men of Tennessee are far less touchy upon that
point than are the Kentuckians. The people of
Kentucky call the Tennessee Union men Aboli
tionists." The fact is, the loyalists of this State are
pleased with any mode which may be presented
tending to crush the rebellion and impoverish
traitors. No mortal can fully realize what the
loyal people of this section of the country have suf
fered, On the other hand, the_people of Kentucky,
so ,Tennesseans say, who have been very well pro
tected, on the whole, seem disposed to place obsta
cles in the way of the Government. The following
document was sent to me from Gallatin yesterday.
`lt has been sent to several officers who are stationed
in this city, and much indignation exists among
these who have perused it, especially when an order
has been promulgated from General Rosecrans, to
the effect that negroes and citizens shall be substi
tuted for soldiers as teamsters, nurses, dewardo,
etc., when convenient :

Here is another'-evidence of the material of our;
Union men :
A memorial will be presented to President
coin, should General Rosecrans decline action irate
matter, urging the suppression of disloyal papers, or
at least their circulation in our midst.. The patitlon
will be', signed by John Hugh Smith, Mayor,.and ,
most of the aldermen and councilmen; Joseph S
Fowler, Comptroller, one of the most accomplished
scholars in the State, and an tmconditionabloyalist ;.
Edward H. East, Secretary, of, State, Rprace
Hanison, clerk of United States Court, both of
wham during the rebel possession of Nashville, re
sided in Mexico and Cuba James Davis,' a wealthy
Union man of this city,:who wad dritrm .from. the.

uncompromising patriot, and, is a' native of South

the occupatiea or this city by the national troops,
and about a hundred other gentlemen who have a
clean-record.
The particular journals mentioned are the Chicsio
Times, Columbus Crisis, New Alhsay. Ledger, and
Cincinnati .Enquirer. These Dams all circulate
more or less in this city. Theeincinnati En'quirer's
Sales vastly exceed that of the Journa/, or any other
_
newspaper circulated in our midst, execvt the Union.
A large number of the Crisis find recipients through
the poet Mee t fsa do also the Chicago Times and
• THREE CENTS.
New Albany Ledger. The reception of these odious
sheets within rebel circles is like throwing so much
cotton saturated with turpentine intoa red-hot fur
nace. But, worse than C all, the ignorant are led
astray, while the semi-loyal men and conditional
Union people are daily transformed into weak
headed Secessionists and cowardly fools. I would
willingly pledge my existence in my ability to prove
that more damage has been done in this city since
the .24th of February, 1862, by the Cincinnati En.
Quinn than was realized by the influence of the
Union and Aoierican during an antecedent period of
one year. It is hoped that the earnest solicitation
Of the Union men of Nashville will be heeded.
A HARD CASE
Yesterday, a lady named .Marylloy actually
starved to death. She was mother of three small
children, who are left in a destitute condition. It is
said that the lady has relatives at or neazPittsburg,
Pa., able to take charge of the little ones. Some
benevolent Catholic ladies have temporarily looked
after the children. Any person interested in the
family can obtain information relative thereto by
addressing a-note to. Bishop Wheelan; Cathedral,
Nashville, Tennessee. The city.editor of the Dis
patch, informs me that the husband of Mrs. Malloy
was killed at the battle of Stone river.
RETRIBUTION.
About six weeks ago 9. couple of Union men were
seized by some guerillas and 'rushed off South into
ajail. The facts being known at headquarters, the
general commanding immediately imprisoned two
foul-mouthed Secessionists, named Wm. it. Oal
houn, formerly of Philadelphia, and G. W. Donniz
gap, of Ireland. Yesterday news of the release of
the two patriots was received, and this morning an
order from- Gen. Mitchell dispossesses the two
' . 'southern" men of their late residences among
lice, rebel prisoners, and other vermin.

duties as guardboat near the Narrows, New York
harbor. She has been repairing damages sustained
by having been run into by the British steamship
Melita, on the night of February The Crawford
has been stationed since this time last year at the
Narrows, the most responsible position near New
York, and has rendered important service by the
prompt and energetic course of her officers. NO
vessel has been permitted to leave the harbor for
sea by the way of the Narrows without being over-
Over five thousand vessels for foreign and South

SKATING:
Has been practicable nearly all day upon the Fifth
avenue, Central Park, and other ponds, and thou-.
sands are enjoying the midwinter amusement, with
as much gusto as though this were not the middle of
March. There is no lack of prophets who predict
that we shall yet have some days of sleighing before
the spring violets show themselves, and furs, great-.
coats, and mufflers are as clingingly cultivated as
during a Canadian December. Not the least sign of
a thaw has there been since sunrise this morning.
In Courtlandt, and one or two other river-ward
, streets, the mud, snow, and ice are all frozen to
gether into the most fantastical and spring-breaking
inequalities of surface, with a depth on a level of
more than eight inches, causing , the thoroughfare to
present somewhat of the aspect of a rude mountain
road.
THE SOLDIER,
according to ancient authority, is a gentleman by
profession, and it is to be regretted that so many of
the profession, in the Army of the Potomac, have
fallen into the very ungentlemanly and unchivalrous
habit of speculating with matrimonial advertiie
ments in the papers. A journal of this morning con
tains four of these mischievous, though silly adver-.
tisements, emanating from "Two young officers in
the army, of good standing," "Ayoung man who
-
has been connected With the arinpfor nearly two
years," "A young man—a gentleman and a sol
dier," and so on. All these matrimonial heroes be
long to the regiments in and around Washington,
and it will not hurt their to be reminded that such
exploits in print are anything but creditable to .the
service. If they- will make fools of themselves , by
advertising thus, they might have the grace to re
frain from naming the regiments and companies to
whichthey belong, as their more respectable com
rades are worthy of more dignified companionship
than theirs, and may wish to be understood -as hav

ITALIAN OPEME
has taken a sudden lease of papaw prosperity watt
us, greatly to the refreshment of impreisaria IVfaret--
7:ek, whose general fortune it his been to lose iw one
season in New York all that he had made in Ha
vana, or Mexico, in three. At the matin6e to.day
there was a magnificent vison of fair women, - there--
ceipts from so much loveliness being over six hun
dred dollars. On each of the opera nights of the .
week the audiences have been larger and finer than
tiny.' remember to have seen since the early Astor
Place daYe, the figures and toilettes in the stock;
holders' boxes, and in the private loges of Messrs.
Wolr, Duncan, and Sherman, Belntont, Jamcs Gor
don Bennett & Co., being charming revelations of
the higher social beatitudes'. On WednesdaY even;
ing, the carriages extended in a double line from- the
porch of the Academy to Union Park, making a to
tal of about two hundred and fifty vehicles. In the
whole company of lyrical artists thus favored with
distinguished patronage, there is not one really great
voice. IVledori, the prima. donna aisoluta; is" a re
markably finekactress ; but her powerful voice an: ,
pears to lack all capacity for nicety of expression in
the upper register, where it not unfrequently beL
comes so thin and wiry as to.threaten to break ; Or
tolani Brignoli, the second donna, who made her d -
but as Trioletta last night, is about equal to Cordier,
and 'better fitted for opera comique than grand
opera; IVlazzoleni, the primo tenor, with some
of Stigelli's robustiousness and a little of
Brignoli's sweetness, will hardly compare with
either of. those artists as a general vocalist; -and
the second tenor, who is yet to be heard, is one of
those warbling little fellows—like Tamaro—who can
just sing Donizetti and. Bellini , with proper senti
ment. Still, this troupe surpasses any other troupe
we have had since the Salvi and Ba.dioli days, in
the sterling qualify of being all finished artists and
doing ordinary justice to every role of an opera.
They act well; too, and make up in earnest, artistic
spirit and ability, what they lack in the higher
qualities of voice. Bellini and Brachi, the baritone
and evince some of the beat musical scholar
ship I have yet noted at the Academy; and when a
good opera like "Ernani" is given by the whole
troupe, the perfOrmance has a uniform 'effect and
finish in all its parts which delight everybody.

Hon. Mrs. F. Stonor:
The bridal gift of the King of Denmark. to- the
rrinceEs Alexandra is to consist of aeopy,. executed.
in gold and jewels, of the celebrateffieross-of.Queen
Dagmar, which forms one of.the chief attractions of
the Copenhagen Museum of Art. The cross, which
in the reign or Christian V. was recovered from the
grave of that ancient sovereign, is one of the earliest
specimens of Scandinavian art, and in its curious
combinations of enamerand filagree work has been
long regarded as a treasured heirloom in the family
of the Danish kings. The trousseau of - the Princess
has been just completed by the united /abbe elite semp
stresses. The conduct of. the work had been en
trusted to Herr Levysohn, linendraper of Copen
hagen. With the exception of the lace and some
broideries, this portion of-her - Highness' dowryis en
tirely due to Danish workmanship.

of course authority in the matter, states that the
ladies who have been honored by-being selected-as
bridesmaids -to the Princess Alexandra are:' Lady
Victoria Scott, Lady Elma Bruce, daiighter of Lord -

ARRAINGEMENTS FOR THE PRESS.—The London,
correspondent of the Manchester Guardian writes:•
" The Prince of Wales' marriage continues the up- .
permost topic of. home news. The pressure on the-
Lord Chamberlain's office for admission to - St.
George's Chapel is tremendous. The press admis
sions have been strictly confined to the London
journals, and it is stated, in reply to the crowd or
applicants on behalf - of provincial journals, that not .
a place remains available. The-fourteen or, fifteen
reporters present will be accommodated in a portion,
of the organ loft, and only abont six will have a
really commanding view of the ceremony. The=
others will have to console themselves by their vienr
of the procession as it .passes -through the nave:
