When- used, it will be paid for.- - THE NEWS. .Fr.oy the Army of the Potomac we have the re- port'd' Brigadier Von Stoinwehr, which further ex-; plains the conduct of the nth Corps in the recent Battle, and a semi-official account of the operations of Averill’s cavalry, which represents his expedition. ;as a.success, and his blame, therefore, undeserved. It is, hojvever, reported that the expedition of G-en. ■ Stoneman has not accomplished .all that was In tended and supposed, and that the important rail-, load bridges over the Pamunliey were hot destroyed. ; A'despatch to the Richmond' papers has the re markable statement 'that communication between . Iredericksburg and Richmond is entirely restored. -We have more extravagant accounts from the Rich mond newspapers of the Federal losses in the late battle. ', ' , ' WE'giye as follows somevnews of our generals .. Col." Kilpatrick, in recognition of hi a conspicuous services in.the raid upon Richmond,-has received an independent command of cavalry. General Birney, has been highly .commended for 4hc position of major general, and it is expected that hiß efficiency in the late battle will be, rewarded by the position made vacant by .General Berry’s death. General w Hooker was in 'Washington, on Thursday, in excel lent health and spirits; and on Friday General Burnside upon .the President and Secretary , ,of War. General Ouitisj commanding at St. Louis, has, it is ssid, been superseded by General Schofield, of the Army of thß Cumberland, through the influ ence of Senator Henderson, and a number of'promi - '.nent Missourians. : ’ -'.i,yt. ■ The Government will soon, it is rumored, send /a strong force into* East Tennessee \to assist the voted loyalists of that section, which is also im portant in a military respect. A member of an Ala bama regimentwrites to a rebel newspaper that the Vicinity of Cumberland Gap-is full of 11 bush wackers is, mqji who are loyal to the Go vernment, and 4 that even-boys, many of whom are captured daily, are in arms for the Union. The War Department has issued orders to stop the exportation of horses, mules, and cattle. All caught in transit will be seized, appraised, and taken for ..Government use. Commanders of De partments jjare also, directed to be vigilant in pre , venting the exportation of arms arid war material. Orders are also published directing all officers arid ’ men included in the ' recent exchanges to repair at once to their several commands. ' •7 V ' Up to the Bth instant the advance of General Grant’s forces were within fifteen miles of Edward’s station, which 1b eighteen miles.eaßt from Yicksburg on the railroad, the army being eighteen miles from Grand Gulf, encamped near the Big Black river. The report of a fight at Clinton is con tradicted. General Grant’s plan of movement seems to have disconcerted the hopes of the rebels at Vicksburg, and a newspaper complains that his ap proaches are not properly defended. We have an account of the battle at Port Gibson, in which the rebel loss amounted to one thousand in killed, wounded,'and prisoners. The rebels7are .once more seriously threatening Kentucky., A despatch to the Cincinnati CoTnmerciaZ, ■ dated Somerset, Kentucky, May 13th, says, no doubt exists that the enemy is in force across the Oumber ’ - ‘ land. - Morgan, with the commands of Wheeler and Forrest, is reported at Monticello. Conversation between pickets has ceased, and affairs wear the ap pearance of* active warfare. ~ Later we learn that Morgan’s proposed raid on Kentucky has been de feated at Horae-slis^.and Bottom Harrows, onthe Cumberland liver, by Cols. Bayle, Hol man, and Jacob. Morgan had 5,000 men, about a hundred of'whom were killed. . . ‘ Despatches from General Grant’s army to the 1 Western papers, state that the most direct- route from _Milliken J s Bend to Grand Gulf, and that now. generally used, ia across twelve miles of country to Richmond, (La.,) thence down a bayou on transports to Hard-Times landing, on the Mississippi, a few - miles above the mouth of Big Black. This obviates ' the neceßtity of a wearisome trip of seventy miles by land, and enables the army to be provisioned at the present locality quite easily. The strength; of the rebel garrison at Vicksburg, . it is believed, haß been overrated; Col. Fletcher, ■ who was made prisoner in the battle of Chickasaw : Bayou,' arid who just returned, says there were only ,* 16,000 rebels at Vicksburg at the date of that en gagement, and it is known that several brigades sub sequently left to reinforce Bragg inTennessee. The ■calling outof the militia of the State by Governor ; ‘ Pettus proves that the garrison is insufficient to meet Grant’s army. A xettee from Vera Cruz, - reports that the . ;t Mexicans, after holding out bo long, and fighting; • . with desperate bravery, have now takea the offen sive, arid their plan of operation is to-attack the . French outside of Puebla. Comonfort, with 20,000 men, has _the a French were driven from the ; city. The Mexicans /have fought admirably, and the French are de pressed by their 'defeat.' . _ •*' Gbh. J. B. Floyd, ex-Secretary of the * Trea sury, iB reported to-be-moving forward. to Western Virginia at the head of ten thousand men, to rein force Jones and„ Imboden, with a view to advance upon the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, at some point between New Creek and Wheeling.' Our forces will be prepared. Gen. Kelly is taking active \ ’measures to deliver West Virginia from the banditti • which for some time past have infested the moun. tains and valleys. Gen. Heintzelman has received information that Moßeby (not. wounded in hia engagement with Stahl, as was reported) is in the Shenandoah valley, commandingan.expedition probably upon the Balti more and Ohio Railroad. He has 300 men at Goose creek, and 500 at Upperville, with which he medi tates a raid for purposes of forage. Good harvests are expected in the South, and- in some., localities harvesting ;is about; to commence. An Alabama paper says that its product will.be ■ great.-. -Hour is coming down.; it is now ten dollars - a Back. Thirty or forty dollars a. barrel was men tioned aB a price. . A despatch, dated the Bth, has been received from General Grant, in which he expresses Mb satis faction with the appearance of matters in his vicini ty, and states that Port Hudson is, without doubt, evacuated. An unauthentic rumor comes from Mur freesboro that Grant has had a serious battle near Yioksburg j"lmt reliable advices place him eighteen miles east of thecity. . - - .

The latest accoun] -—s— altogether — — an impartial analysis' o'f the* despatches tan lead to no definite con clusion, save that there is a lack of veracity somewhere among: the Writers.'. If Falstaef were alive to : read these details of Mexican news, he would probably improve the occa sion to reiterate his want- of confidence in the truthfulness of mankind. But since he is ho longer with its in' the flesh, the best that we can do is to.ascertain for ourselves Whether his peculiar theory.; of. ethics is founded upon fact. On the 14th of April a battle was fought near the beautiful town of Atlixco, which lies about twentyinilesTsouth of the beleaguered “City of the Angels. ’ ’ The .French version has it'that Col. Bhincoukt Who had occupied the town with 1,490 men' repulsed 0,000 Mexican.troops under Gen! Bcheagakay. This, almost every One will admit, is not nstoundingly probable—a fact which the writer of the news ("which is not official") seems to have been conscious of • for, to give it an air of reliability, he tells us that General Ecebagaiiay imprudently took “a cross road” against the Jown, through which his artillery could.not pass, whereby .it was “ delayed.” The idea of a general, the chief of Cowootobt’s staff, and a Mex ican horn besides, blundering in this fashion, is absurd. Again, in explanation of this impossible victory, Ve are told that Colonel Beikcouht, in the commencement of the action, occupied a bridge, whereby he cut off the retreat of the Mex icans; and two or three paragraphs further on we learn that their infantry “ retreated in complete confusion leaving a large number of killed, wounded’ prisoners, arms, and horses.” The Mexican" account of the battle is .official, just half as long as the oilier, and twice as explicit, trcn. E cite ag aha y, ,i n a despatch dated the day after, writes to the. Minister ol War that, in compliance with his orders, he ad vanced against a body of French who were proceedingfrom Choiulo to reinforce Atlixco, and attacked them on the plain outside of the town. He confesses that “in the beginning the enemy .obtained some advantage” but adds, that upon Opening with his artillery which had been kept silent with" the design of inducing the French to adyance within musket range, “ they immediately retreated to Atlixco." Tile following sentence may Tie taken as a specimen of the modesty of the despatch : “The re shit of the combat was, that we remained masters of the field, there having fallen into our power about 500 head of cattle, mules, and horses; about 300 sheep ; about 30 Arabian, horses, and seve ral arms.’’ This is not the language of exaggeration. 'Contrast;its.-, circumstantial character' with the indefiniteness of the French account, which tells us vaguely of a “large number” ofßdlled, wounded, 'and prisoners, and there can he no hesitation in deciding as to which is worthy of the*most credence. Concerning the struggle before Puebla, the accounts are likewise, perplexingly at variance. We have a mass of-details, speculation's; and prophecies, but no clear summing up of results. The army under Robey appeared before the Mexican strong hold' on the 16th of. March, precisely two months ago. In these two months it lias invested the city, captured two of the south ern defences—Fort Ban Xavier ahcl the i Penitentiary—and lost ’ four thousand killed. and wounded,-at feasi. How manyliveshave been east away in the vain attempts to take Forts Loreto and Guadalupe, which occupy the high hills just outside of the city on the northeast, does not appear. In .truth, all that we know is, that the invading army seems to be making ho progress commensu rate with’ its losses, and for this.information we have to thank. Mexicans bulletins exclu sively. : General FokEy is extremely chary of his despatches, and, It is charitable to pre-. surne, not without reason; whereas General Oiitega and O’HoitAN Wiite constantly, and Always in a hopeful strain; Success is al ways garrulous ; and it may be accepted as an axiom in military science that the vic torious general is he who pens the' greatest number of bulletins. The reticence of the French' commander may he for some wise prupose; it may denote, phrenologically speaking,, that his caution is “large;” and that he is gifted with the moral hero ism that can seize upon misfortunes and -convert them' to the purposes of victory. Conceding, however, that Puebla should fall—which is quite a liberal concession in the present state of affairs—of what sub ..stantial advantage will its smoking ruins and dismantled fortresses be to the invaders ? The Mexicans are ; evidently , in •: earn est; and fight with a desperate' courage which belies their- past history, and astonishes the world. Tom and shattered for centuries by the war of factions, and Ilie intrigues of jealousy and private ambition at horde, they have .sprung into national unity, to resist the en croachments of a foreign potentate. It is an acknowledged principle in thera peutics, that counter-irritation of the surface will correct undue internal irritation. Ap ply the same principle to the therapeutics of political life, and we arrive at the happy conclusion that Mexico may emerge from her present travail a powerful, united, and respected republic, claiming a front rank in the family of nations, and willing to do her share for the cause of human liberty, and progress upon the Western continent. Hith therto she has belonged to the New World, not; in language, institutions, "or; social cus .torijs, or in that enterprising spirit which is peculiarly American, but merely by geo graphical position.- Let ns see whether his tory will correct geography’s mistake._' Eoreigli Affairs. The official announcement that the mail bags of the Peterhof had been delivered up ,unopened, by;order., of our,Government to Lord Lyons has given great satisfaction to the/British "Parliament. The difficulty .is that a vessel may be captured on strong sus picion of being about running the blockade, and ..that the: required' link of evidence to; prove this suspicion- correct may be the mails which she carries. : .A;vessel, nomi contain.ar-_ tides, contraband of war, intended for the Confederates, and the proof of such inten tion might be ' supplied by her mail-bags containing letters addressed, not to Rio Janeiro, but to some blockaded Southern 'port. If these mail-bags are to be given up without their contents being examined, a blockade-runner may escape, from want of evidence. 7 The distressed condition of the Lancashire cotton operatives has not abated. At pre sent, 500,000 of these poor people are sup ported, partly out of the poor-rates and partly by private charity, At a cost of eight cents a. day, which vast allowance is to find them food, clothing, and lodging ! Yet, if these miserables emigrate to this country, literally to avoid starvation, Lord Russell does not hesitate do write an impudent letter to Mr. Adams, lamenting the fact and in sinuating that this emigration must, be caused by the solicitations and promises of American agents. * The war in Poland continues to yield,nu merous small successes to tire patriots. It is said that a French fleet of iron war steamers was about being despatched to the port of Cariskrona (not Cariskrona, as telegraphed, J in the Baltic. Cariskrona is to Sweden what Portsmouth is to England, the principal station of its navy, and a capital place for a rendezvous, should oj>erati6ns against 'Russia, '".by sea, be determined on. The Danish navy is being prepared for war; the Swedish lias been ready for some time. The terms of the Czar’s reply to France, England, and Austria have not yet trans pired. It is unfortunate for the Czar that, just at this time, the Circassians should have defeated a Russian army, and very nearly made prisoners of the'GrandDuke Michael ' .and his staff. . ' There seems a prospect, at last, of the set tlement of the Greek question. Prince Wil liam of Denmark having accepted the crown -~orc;reece,'tlie representatives of the Three Powers that established Greece as a mo narchy will be at London on the 25th of the present month.; These -Powers were Russia, 1 ‘ France; and; England. It was_jiofcfnb"le pated that either amwMccr"Ylessrs. Roth leni»----i-T«rtrrent Greece £2,400,000 in 1832 Tave been gradually repaid, so that on March! 1870, the capital and interest will be paid up! But Greece also owes about £5,000,000 to Russia, France, and England, ($23,000, OOOJ) , and her whole revenue: is barely £BOO,OOO ($4,000,000; '.'per annum. It is probable that England will advance some more money. At least, when Lord Palmerston Was lately questioned as to a further loan to Greece, he evaded a reply. England will certainly transfer the lonian Islands„to- Greece. We notice that iho-mmuff/h Re -view, generally-supposed to enjoy the con fidence of Lord.PALMERSTON, does not favor tbo-contihuance of a Kingdom in Greece. It says: “ A Republic, with a strong local, but not Federal, organization, and a President chosen for a long period, and with extensive power s—if a foreigner, like the Podesta of a medimval Italian Commonwealth,, so much the better—this is an alternative which we should regard with reasonable hope. What we most deprecate is a renewed experiment, by the Three Powers, of the ‘ never ending, still beginning ’system of foreign tutelage.” XETTEK FBOM “OCCASIONAL.” ■ . . Washington, May 15, 1863. : General Burnside’s statement of the rea sons winch induced him to arrest Vallan dighf.m has, by this time,, been- read and commented upon by thousands. I have no •where seen a more explicit and unanswer able presentation of the obligations of every citizen to the Government in these warlike times. What renders this publication the more interesting and valuable is the tact that General Burnside has never been a po litician, and that, as a voter, he always acted with the Democratic party. His military education, his long and intimate intercourse* with the Southern people, and particu larly with .those army officers who be lieved,, at the beginning of the war, that, in comparison of rights and wrongs there was ■ little difference between the vlwo sections, give a force to his appeal which cannot he resisted by any honest American. When he came to Washington with the Ist lihode Island regiment, in company with his friend and companion, then Governor, now Senator Sprague, early in 1861, he came to discharge what was a cold duty to his Government, and seemed to desire to avoid all discussion as to the causes of the war and the guilt of those who had brought it'on. The Republicans of Rhode Island had never . been classed among the ultras on the slavery question, and their moderation had so reflected upon the Demo crats as to render the latter more earn’est and decided in expressing their sympathy with the traitors.; But time, with its manifold changes and cures—time, that overthrows prejudice; and passion, and carries convic tion to the darkest intellects—time has pro duced a mighty revolution in the sentiments of the leaders, as well as of the people of that- State,; and General ■ Burnside’s case shows how the events of the past two, years have educated the Union soldiers. As a type of this immense body, lie lias see a the repulsive features of : the rebellion so closely as to render it impossible to disguise from himself its murderous guilt, and its unparal leled treachery. And in proportion as the views he nowproclaims impressed them selves upon his heart, there has grown up a stern horror of every citizen of the free States who, in the safetj- and prosperity of private life, insists'upon ignoring those truths which are everywhere recognized and advo cated by the men who endure the dangers and privations of the battle-field. How ad mirably ■ draws the - distinction between the soldier and the sympathizer! The one, hearing . his breast to the storms of death, - and s risking -his frame in the midst of disease, sustains his Govern ment with an ardor increased by his own, sacrifices and the exacting discipline of the army;,the other, regardless equally of the blessings he enjoys and of the example pre sented, daily by his fellow-citizens in the army, refuses to denounce the of the traitors, and frequently applauds and apolo gizes for them. We may be told that the movements of demagogues and discontents like Vallandigham should be permitted to organize and increase, and that public opin ion would finally crush them; but when such a witness as General Burnside assures us that their only effect is to encourage the enemy, and to discourage our brave men in the field, what man will decline to ac cept and respond to his appeal ? Read Gen. Burnside’s statement carefully, and then take up one of the. speeches of James W. Wall, of New Jersey, William B. Reed, of Pennsylvania, or Fernando;Wood, of New York. Weigh well and compare the lan guage of the hero with the treasonable utter ances of such ; politicians. The soldier, frank, bold, and truthful; scorning to use a word that may help the cause of the rebel lion, and imploringthemen athome to give him the benefit of their support, holding up their obligations to the country, constantly multiplied by their.invaluable privileges and immunities ; tbe sy mpa thizer using and abu sing: these privileges and immunities, as if to show his scorn and hatred of the soldier*' and his love and reverence for liis foes. How well he defines the difference between these two classes ! He says to the disloyal- lead ers of the. free Statesj. “ they most not use license, and plead that they are exercising liberty.” Is it a hardship to ask our people to act upon the advice of General Burn side ? Is it tyranny to insist that if they will give nothing else to the bleeding and beleagured Republic, they should give it the benefit of then - -silehca? ' Tne railers against the Government, the libellers of the constituted authoriles, the, .partisans who misrepresent the . acts, of Congress, stir up the unthinking multitude, and fill the at mosphere with gloomy predictions, should hang their heads in shame, as they hear the ringing words of this gallant and devoted champion of the flag. If such men will in sist upon repeating the treason lie so fear lesslyrebukes, they should always be an swered in his own language, and confound ed by Ins own example. Occasional.

He expects to have nearly all completed by the first Monday in June next, the return day fixed by the order of the court. He is acting under the orders of the Attorney General of the United States; issued several months ago. There has been no unnecessary delay. Much difficulty exists in obtaining proof on which to base legal proceedings. Payment of tlie Army. The army has been paid mainly to the lstof March last. Some of the paymasters were paying off the troops during the time Gen. Hooker was on the smith Bide of tlie Rappahannock, and during the progress ofthebattle had to hastily gather up their ■funds for safer positions. Gen. Hooker was in Washington yesterday on official business.

Coming from the different professions of life, and with the single purpose of promoting the cause of the nation and of humanity, we feel sure their mission will prove as succesßlul as any ardent lover of his country would desire. • : General McClellan on Stonewall .Jackson.

He was sinceregand true, and valiant. Yet no one has dis appointed me more than he has. Jackson was one of my claga-mates, and ;at college never promised to be the man he haa proved himself. He was alwavs very alow, and acquired a lesson only after great labor. And yet his determination was so great that he never gave,anything up until he succeeded. : His - character seemß to have changed since, for he has exhibited great celerity in all his movements while' in command of rebel forces.” “I suppose,” remarked a gentleman, “Jackson was the ablest general in the South.” ‘‘He is undoubtedly a great 1 loss to the rebels.” replied General McClellan. Vliee ia perhaps'the most able commander they have, and Jackson was their.beßt executive officer.” The General received hiß visitors in the most cor dial manner.

He'says' the country is so strewn with blankets, &c., &c., that-his men in marching from' one field to another since the late battles, have never cumbered themselves with anything, being satisfied that wherever they may camp for the night, a plenty of blankets and overcoats will be found.

THE SPIRIT OP OUR MEN. It is stated that some of the heroic men of Jack son’s corps, during the late forced march to the rear of the enemy, rather than straggle or be left behind, fell deadin their tracks from Bheer exhaustion. That' this indomitable spirit waß not confined to Jackson’s men. but inspired the whole army* the following ex tract from a letter,-written by the, commander of a light battery from this city, will show. The 1 battles had not commenced when the letter was written-: “ Gamp hear Frrdertgksrurq, -April 3,- 1863. Yesterday we received, very suddenly, an order to the front, distant twenty-five miles.

The following letter is from a very high authority atYeraCruz:’ Yeka Cp.vz, May 1, 18G3.—We have news from Puebla 8B late as the 21at of April. The accounts are of great interest and importance. Briefly stated, the situation is as followßi . . ! On the 12th of March the French arrived before the city of Puebla, with about2o,ooo effective; men. On the nth they attacked the “ Plazuela de San fa vier,” and after a, severe several days, they.succeeded in breaching, .entering, and occupying two blocks or_ squares. After three days’ severe fighting, the Mexicans succeeded inde stroying these blocks, driving the French completely from the city.. ' ' . ; , h , On the 12th of April the French made a secon? at tack on the Plazuela del Carmen, and after- firty hours’ continuous fighting, during which the Freich were three several times driven back, tb.ey retifed to the Cerrode San Juan, leaving a large numjer of prisoners in the hands of the Mexicans, including one company of Zouaves entire. J r The condition of afl'aira at Puebla, f Vof _ je oouu , j .oil the2is it April, stands thus: , ' I c Forey finds himself weakened nearly onc-tfurj of the force that he arrived before the city wife. IHe has a very short supply-of ammunition, ard has gent to Cordova, Orizaba, and Vera Cruz, for dithe disposable force that can be sent him, includiig all colors.:/ > . •. , , 1 / During the last engagement General Llau was wounded; .and Gen. Robledo lost an arm. The Jlexi- iie v. _ne|Eex. canß have done nobly; they have fought splenhUy, aDd have surprised even their warmest friendj ; No one supposed that they would hold iut so long or fight so desperately.- Now they havriaken the offensive, and their plan of operation is to at tack the French outside the city. Comonfort, whose forceß-now amount to ipwar' of 20,000 men, will make the attack, dr it hav bee made ere this. „■ ; l!

Additional Rebel News. THE SPOILS. REPUBLIC OF 'MEXICO. San Erancisco. Port Koyal. Accident to General McWell. Tile Sew .York Central Canal. [Correspondence of The Press] New York, May 16,1663, . A FEMININE LOYAL LEAGUE, if organized and directed by loyal women of refine ment and high social culture, would undoubtedly originate a new element of inspiration for the young soldiers of the Republic, and infuse fresh enthusi asm into the good work of scraping lint, preparing soldier’s clothing, and nursing the loyal wounded, which so many-noble-minded women have accepted as their province in lt must be confessed, however, that the so-called Convention : of the Loyal iVVomen of America,” at the Church of the Puritans, yesterday, waß not the sort of 'demonstra tion to bring a League of this sort into popular favor. The leading spirits of the Convention in question, were: Mrs. Lucy Stone Blackwell, and Mrs. Susan B. Anthony, of “ Woman’s Rights ” notoriety ; Mra. Ernestine L,.Rose, and Mrs.,Cole man, of Rochester, two noted female atheists, and others of like strong-minded and bloomerißh eccentri cities. Mrs. Elizabeth Cady Stanton, whocalled the Convention, and Mrs. Angeline Grimke Weld, one of the speakers, were perhaps the least masculine of the party. The .debate was a mixture of stale cant about ; woman’s legislative and social wrongs and rightß, old-maidishpeckings at the President and Cabinet,. cries of “ speak louder,” and Sharp tongue duels. Referring to the Deity, Mrs. Coleman made use of the blasphemous words: “ The God of heaven, if such exists /” lor. which she was deservedly hissed. To pll- such a meeting of the female lunatics a “ Convention of .the Loyal Women of America,” is to greatly wrong that ardent spirit of loyalty which our true women have been able in a thousand in stances to show, without descending either to woman’s rights or blasphemy. It is to be hoped that the miserable folly of yesterday’s spectacle in this city will not be allowed to extinguish the idea Vof a genuine Union League of loyal ladies, for Buch fa league, as before stated, would be capable of doing ■auph, by influence and acts,, for the cause of the HsjSublic. I THE WASHINGTON ALDERMEN came hither in committee to present to Mr. McClellan their resolutions expressive jof their de light in him for having “saved Washington,” have been delivered of their ridiculous mus at last, and heard a short, speech in reply, from the extinguished Young Napoleon. .Said the junior. Bonaparte, “most of theanxious hours of my life, and proba bly my most harassing labors, have been spent in trying to secure the safety of Washington. That it was secured, was entirely due to the gallant troops I had the honor to command.” THE IRON-CLAD ROANOKE, or iron-clad frigate, built' for the protection of our harbor, heralded some days ago bb a great success, turns out to be* something nearer a failure. The machinery of the vessel will not work, and it will take some time yet to repair, or replace it.|At least, so it is said by those who are supposed, to know all about it. C A REST,” on a large scale, fox the accommodation of sick} or homeless volunteers arriving in this city, is Bhortly to be opened in the capacious buildings, corner of Howard and Mercer streets. The dormitory will contain five hundred beds and the establishment will be furnished with a reading-room, dining-hall, &c. v Stuyvesant. FIRES IN THE LONG ISLAND WOODS.—A fire broke out on Monday, some four, miles west of Riverhcad, L. 1., which swept over several hundred acres of woodland before it was got under', and burred three small houses, two belonging to Irish men and one to an:Englishman.V About the-same time another fire broke out near Terrell’s Hole, which swept, directly towards Riverhead, but was checked in that direction. The wind, however, shift ing to .the east, it continued to burn all night and all the next dav, covering a large tract of land to the south and \vest of Riverhead, and extending as far west . the Clay Pits, an area not far from five miles' square, or about sixteen thousand acres of land, some of it heavily wooded. So intense and powerful was the light, that it was plainly seen at Sag Harbor, a distance of twenty-five miles. Hun dreds of cords of cut wood were bumed.by the fire. Public Entertainments. Concert. —The Philadelphia JEolian Society announce a grand concert at Musical Fund Hall, on Tuesday evening, for the benefit of.the Wesleyan Association and the Ladies’Aid Society, of the Kensington M. E. Church. The concert, we are informed, will be of a very excellent character. Tiie Bketto Brothers.— This evening, the third and last concert of the three Bretto Brothers, so illimitable in musical acquirement, will take place at Musical Fund Hall.

Chicago is the most rapidly improving city in ’ the West, and real estate invest ments in that city cannot fail to be productive.

' To the Admirers ok Art. — The lovers of art, whether residents of Philadelphia, or stran gers visiting the city, have now two points to visit that are well worthy their attention —the Academy of the Fine Arts, Chestnut street above Tenth, and Messrs Broadbent 3t Co.’s magnificent Photograph Galleries, Nos, 912, 914, and 916 Chestnut street. The latter was* visited by hundreds [of ladies and gentlemen yesterday, of whom a very large number sat to their artists in the various opreating rooms, for pictures varyying in size and costliness from the petitfe carte de visile to the superb lfe-size Broad bent' pictures finished in oil. Their specimen gal leries are really, magnificent repositories ofthe pho? tographic and kindred arts, in the department of portrait-making. ' Delicious Spring Confections.— Let no head of a house, husband, lover, son, or brother, return to his quiet domicile to-night without carrying with him some token of regard from the celebrated Confectionery establishment of Messrst E. G. Whit man & Co., Chestnut street, below Fourth, next door to Adams & Co.’s Express.,, Their Spring aud Summer preparations, now ready upon their coun ters in rich profusion, excel,, anything in fine Con fections that have ever been produced in this coun try, and their great merit is, that besides being the finest-flavored and most palatable, they are made, from only the-veiy purest and most wholesome ma terials. These are, in fact, the Confections which, of all others, should be popularly used. The Income-Tax. —This tax, it has been settled, is levied on the net , income. The gains or profit of business, intended .by the law, are only such as remain after deducting all the costs and charges of carrying bn that business. After the re sidue, the tax-payer has a credit of $6OO, and allow ance for taxes, State, county, and municipal. It is good thing for such merchants, as TV. W. Alter, the popular coal-dealer, Ninth: street, above Poplar, that the tax is not directly upon the number of tons of coal sold, as that would probably make Alter’s —— ——-Uuuu uula— txF— tlollurß ' V • whereas, taxin gpivjits only , his tax will be compara tively trifling, as it is universally admitted that he sells at a smaller advance than any other coal dealer living. He thiiß saves thousands of dollars to his patrons, every year. Where to have Yotjr Picture Taken. —Amid the multitude of claims that are presented to the public bythe various photographers of this city, the uninitiated feel at a lobb to know exactly t chore they can be best served. Now, without wish-. ing to disparage any other establishment by invi dious comparisons, we will merely state a fact with regard to that of Mr. F. A. O. Knipe, No. 906 Arch street, above Ninth,'viz.: that of the scores of pictures taken by this talented young artist we have yet to see the'first one that would not do great credit to the moafedistinguished photographer in the land. Mr. Knipe has. aimed at nothing short of perfection in his art, and it is quite plainly to be seen that fame in his profession is the: prime object of'his ambition, rather than mere pecuniary success, although he is no less certain to reap the latter, from present indi- 5 cations, ,■ Elegant Stock of Children’s Hats.- Messrs. Wood & Cary, No. 725 Chestnut street, have now open the finest and largest stock of Children’s Hats in this city, at moderate prices, including a superb line of Leghorn .* and Straw Hats in new shape ; also, all the new styles of Boys’ Straw Hats, Caps, and Jockeys. . * ■ -• ' An Invaluable Medicine fob all Ages akd Sexes.— We have already had occasion to speak of Helmbold’s Highly Concentrated Com pound Fluid Extract Buchu, as the most positive and specific remedy extant for diseases of the uri nary organs, affections of the bladder, kidneys, &c. In this connection we would also take occasion to speak of Kelmbold’s Compound Fluid Extract Sar. saparilla, for purifying the blood, which has abso lutely no equal as a : cure of scrofula, scald heady salt rheum, pains and swellings of the bones, ulce rations of the throat, tetter, erysipelas, and erup tions of the skin, and beautifying the complexion. As not a few of the worst disorders that afflict man kind arise /rom the corruption that accumulates in the blood, it.will be seen at a glance that Helmbold’s Sarsaparilla is a great renovator and invigorator of health. It stimulates the healthy functions of the body, expels disorders that rankle in the blood, and is, in short, just such a remedy as every family in the land should be Supplied with. We have known, personally, a number of eases in which these effec tual remedies of Mr. Helmbold have wrought the most marvellous cureß in a short time, and we have, therefore, no hesitation in recommending the oddest use of them, as health will thereby be promoted, and doctor’s bills saved. - v New Spring and Summer'Clothing.— Messrs. C. Somers & Son, No. 625 Chestnut street, under Jayne’H Nall, have accomplished the feat this' week of selling a greater number of fine auitsof . Clothing than any* other one house. We are not surpiised at this, when we consider that this firm have facilities for getting up elegant clothing al; mo derate prices- not equalled by any other, owing to their being large importers of the goods they make up, and the fact that they have secured the most ta lented artists in their cutting and manufacturing departments. Their for suits to be made up to measurement are alßo pouring in upon them in a perfect stream. _ - -; ->. Puke Spanish Olives.— The proprietors of the popular old grocery establishment of the late C. H. lYlattßonjArch and Tenth streets, (which, byjthe way, was never in greater favor with the first fami lies of our city than at the present time,) have just received a splendid invoice or pure Spanish Olives, which they are giving to their customers in bottles, quarts, orjjallons, as desired, , Militant Trappings fob Army and Navt Ovvicitns will be found in greatest variety, best Btyleß, and at moderate prices, at the old house of Charles Oaltford & Sohb, under the Continental Hotel. To the Ladies—who have not, yet clone so, we would Bay, Go at once to Wood & Cary’s great Millinery Emporium, No. 725 Chestnut street, and select a new bonnet from their magnificent stock.’ - At the Popular Gents 1 Furnishing -Establishment of Mr. George Grant, No. Gio Cheßtnut street; our readers will find one of the choicest stocks of seasonable goods.in this city. We would invite special attention to his fresh invoice of Courvoisier and 'Angeles beat make-of Kid Gloves. They are the beat and most popular glove in use. The New'Style Spring and Summer Hats and Cats for Gentlemen and Youth, now oflered by Oakford & Son’B, under the Continental Hotel, for grace, eleganee, and beauty, are un rivalled. Tiie Laws of Fashion are as imperious as the Laws of Health—they must be observed. Who of our lady readers, when tall bonnets are the style, would be seen with - one of scaaon-before-last com preßeedVonest—and when the lashion books show us skirts and cloaks embroiderer all over, who will be without them? But it would be a cruel waste of time to do all this intricate and delicate work by hand when Grover St Baker’s Machine, having for the moment performed all the. seiewnr to be done, stands, with uplifted needle, ready to commence its pleasant task of throwing off the most beautiful embroidery with an ease and nonchalance truly won-, derful; and cither sewing or embroidery comes just as easy, and is performed just as quickly, one as the other, on this celebrated Machine. Notice to. Gentlemen Only.— "We re spectfully call the attention of our readers to the large and extensive assortment of summer garments, of the latest style and fashion, now oa hand at the Mammoth One-price ClothiDg Emporium of Gran ville Stokes, No. 609 Chestnut street..

The high repute in which his wares are held in all.our large cities has occasioned so great a demand that he was obliged to- remove to more com modious quarters, where his facilities would be pro portionately increased, Hia stock is now full and well-assorted, and parents- and others who wish to gratify the youngsters should call on Mr. Quinn, No. 423 Walnut street. ■Warbhrton’s Celebrated Felt Hats, made and sold exclusively by Mr. Warburton, next door to the Post Office, are, beyond doubt, the most comfortable Hat of the age- Unlike the common New-En gland- made hats, sold by hatters generally, the Philadelphia-made article of Mr. Warl)urton is manufactured from the finest selected fiers, and, for beauty and durability, surpasses any other felt hats in the ivorld. ; Jacquard Lace,''Muslin, and Embroi dered Xace Curtains, in great variety, choice patterns, from $5 to $25 a pair. 719 Chestnut Street, Masonic Hall, W.
