MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 21,-1863.
THE NEWS.
A REAT engagement has been fought in Georgia,
'which is doubtless but the beginning of a struggle of
much greater magnitude. The rebels have been
anxious to bring on immediate battle at the moment
Bragg received his full reinforcements They began
the attack on the morning of the 19th, on our left
commandrd by General Thomas, and were
defeated after a desperate struggle, but, with added
numbers, succeeded in regaining their ground, from
'Which they were again driven, and charged for nearly
mile. The rebels aleo made a successful dash at
the centre, but were driven otY by vigorous move.
'Bents on the right and left. Palmer and Negley
pushed 'bravely forward, and by four in the after-
Mon our lines were re-established on Chleltanitoga
river, southwest of Chattanooga, at the foot of the
'Pigeon Ridge. There is a report, by no means in
credible, that General Lee is in• command of the
enemy ; and prisoners taken represent themselves
from the corps of Rill, Polk, Johnston, and Long
:street.
We publish this morning a detailed account of
the projection and stinting of what seems to be a
most promising and extensive expedition to operate
in the State of Texas, under command of Generals
Franklin, Washburne, and Herron. An unfortunate
accident occurred to one portion of the expedition
al Sabine Pane, near the mouth of the Blisaissippi,
*Whereby we lost one small gunboat sunk and an
other captured. This mishap, it was thought at
last advice's, would not delay the active operations
t 1 General Friirkklib'S column, to which the gun•
boats lost were temporarily attached.
CriAnLESTON papers estimate the rebel killed and
wounded in the struggle for Morris Island at seven
hundred, It is not probable that Beauregard has
been superseded. The reported new commander is
one Gilmer, who distinguished himself at Donelson
and Shiloh. Lieut. Gen. Holmes has been perma
ntntly retired by supersedure.
Gen GiLmonn has issued a complimentary order
to Lis troops, in which he says that Charleston city
and harbor are now at the mercy of our guns. The
rebels are working on Fort Sumpter, and it is stated
that Beauregard is about to assume the offensive;
how, it is not 6111113iBid.
A CONSIDIMATiLB bOdS of rebel troops are making
their appearance in North Carolina. The main part
consists of cavalry, with Imboden in command, and
the whole force, which has shown itself at Kinston,
numbers five or six thousand. Between twenty and
thirty thousandtroops were lately In the vicinity of
Raleigh, perhaps at rattle for Charleston or the West.
Tux military character of the war is apparently
- making a radical change. Troops from Richmond
have undoubtedly gone to reinforce the West.
Richmond must have, therefore, been left to a much
diminished army, and the rumors of its evacuation
are not without- respect Ability. The policy of the
rebels has been to contract their lines of defence
giving up indefensible territory, and protractim ,
the contest by stubborn tights until they provoke
recognition. They may be willing to give up Rich
mond if Rosecrans can be crushed and Gilmore
baffled.
NEVSPAPER correspondenta are forbidden to hold
communication with rebel prisoners; or accompany
cavalry advancee, '
by 'a epecial order from Major
General Meade, in command of the Army of the
Potomac.
DISPATCHES from the coal regions of this State
Show that the damage done by the recent storm and
frelliets has been immense. Railroad bridges and
canal locks have•been washed away at several points,
and navigation will cease for a few days.
A RUMOR was prevalent at Fortress Monroe and
Norfolk on Saturday last, to the effect that Rich
mondwas being evacuated. This report is no doubt
hated upon the fact that large bodies of rebel troops
have recently been sent South and West, from
Richmond and its various lines of outpost defences.
linrouTs from the Rapidan river, yesterday, con
vey the impression that the rebel Army of Northern
'Virginia is in line and prepared for battle, which is
looked for immediately. General Meade is preparing
fer another important forward movement.
AUTEIt great eftort has been made and to,uch money
sacrificed, New Jersey will not be able to avoid the
draft. Although recruiting has been going on since
the latter part of July, only 4500 men have been
procured, leaving 4,'283 yet to be furnished—not to
speak of numerous desertions among the men en
listed, which will have to be made up. At the pre
sent rate of enlistment'it will require two months
to make up the original - quota, and some time lon
ger to fill the vacancies caused by desertions.
Tnam a battle should have been fought
in Georgia is itself proof of the immense
progreSs of the national arms, and is occa
sion of congratulation altogether indepen—
dently of victory or defeat. Our armies
stand in the centre of the South, and
behind them two: happy States which
they , have wrested from the rebellion,
and restored to loyalty and peace, prove
the greatness of our past achievements.
The position has a marked significance ;
and even if the united armies of JOHNSTON
and BRAGG, largely reinforced from the
forces of LEE, should repulse General B;OSE
cjiAws, the fact that we have penetrated to
the heart of the Confederacy will remain.
Nothing, however, promises 'an unfortunate
result. Our line of battle was attacked by
the enemy, and broken ; hard fighting and
good generalship restored it,-and, at latest
accounts, our brave troops had driven back
the enemy, and recovered their first
position. The fierceness of this contest in
dicates the probable greatness of the strug
gle to which it is but a prelude. Before the
'week is ended glorious news,,we trust, will'
be ours.." The defeat of the great rebel army
in Georgia will be for us a victory of such
magnitude, that no man can over-estimate
Its value, no prayer for it can be too earnest,
no sacrifice to gain it too mighty. -
TILE satisfactory progress which the cam
paign in Pennsylvania is making, as evi
denced in the political indications' of the
past week, has doubtless been observed by
very many, even of those who are unaccus
tomed to noting closely. the signs of the
times, while it has served still further to
encourage and unite the friene s of the
Union for the task which lies before them..
If it had been possible for us to doubt be-
Tore that Pennsylvania would be true in this
struggle, as she has been true in all other
struggles, all doubt upgn the subject would
have been removed by the very cheering
aspect which the political field has recently
assumed. Within a few days past several
significant events have occured, which, so
far as they go to prove that the loyal men
of the Commonwealth are disposed to-sink
all minor issues in the grand question of the`
nation's existence, must be regarded as of
the highest consequence. The first of the
events referred to is the announcement that
General CAMERON has expressed himself
desirous that Governor CIIETIN should be
re-elected, thug silencing the stale and base
less charge that the two -gentleinen did not
entertain friendly feelings towards each
other, and disappointing the hope of the
disloyalists that this suppOsed antipathy
could be turned to the benefit of Mr. Justice
WoonwAltD. Another noteworthy event
is the fact that General BUTLER is Canvass
ing the State for Octant and AGNEW,
,aml
is now employing the same talents which
lie so successfully directed against the Seees
ioniStfi of Lbuisiana, against their sympa
thizers in Pennsylvania. That his success
will be as maiked here, in our home cam
paign, as it was in more distant fields, none
who rightly appreciate the character of the
Man can entertain a doubt. We might recite
other occurrences tending to show that the
friends of the Union everywhere look upon
Pennsylvania as the decisive battle-ground,
and arc coming forward; with the eagPrness
of vohmteers, to consolidate their forces for
'the mighty contest so close at hand ; but the
l'acts adverted to are sufficiently suggestive.
.of the spirit which animates our loyal men,
and sufficiently indicative of the glorious
victory which waits to crown their labors in
October next.

Mr. Seward's Circular in Europe.
Mr. SEWARD'S diplomatic circular has not
convinced the London Times of the possi•
bility of restoring the Union. Great grief
must, therefore, be felt by its distinguished
author, and joy enormous by the supersti
tious, who believe that from the opinion of
that oracular journal there is no appeal.
Still, there is a little consolation left for us.
" Mr. SEWARD is perfectly accurate in
his presumption that the statesmen of
France and England do consider, to
this very day, that the old American
Union can never be reconstructed;"._
thus, speaks the Times; "but the argument
he employs to prove that it can be is need
less and ineffective, because even if we ac
cept it, exactly as it is, it leaves our con
elusions just what e they were." It is in
teresting to find the editors of the Times
thus speaking of themsclves as European
statesmen, and assuring Mr. SEW u n that
his circular is needless and ineffective, be
cause their conclusions are unaltered. Yet,
while we know that the pens which write
nations up and down, in the Times, are
often dipped in official inkstands, we cannot
think "the pale and silent man," who,
as Mr. KIaGLArE . informs us, sits alone
at midnight, and holds England on the
point of his pen, meant to class him
self with Lord PALMERSTON so coolly.
It is not that his audacity is great, but that
his grammar is bad ; for, really, the Times
is not the most grammatical of journals, and
often in the same paragraph will speak of
"the South—their bravery;" "the South—
its courage," and "the South—her-remark
able unanimity." Remembering these little
delicacies, we do not believe that the pale
and silent man meant to call himself a
European statesman ; yet, for, the sake> of
his argument, it would have been well had
he asserted his right to the title. For it
is ridiculous to say that Mr. SEWARD'S
argument, addressed' to the statesmen of
England and France, - is needless and inef
' fective simply because the Times is uncon
vinced, Mr, BE•WARD's circular was in
tended to convince the Governments of' Eu
rope, not the newspapers. Therefore, there
is a little_ consolation left. = Mr. SEWARD's
argument may influence the statesmen of
England and France ; it may shake their
disbelief in the possibility of reconstructing
the Union ; it may not leave their conclu
sions, at least, exactly as they were. Time
may show this; in the meanwhile, states
man can confer with statesman, and news
paper with newspaper. But the pale and
silent MOM has the dignity and mystery is
which his peculiar grammar has enwrapt
him, and is, so far as the slovenly substitution
of a pronoun goes, a European statesman.
His true opponent is, therefore, the gigantic
intellect which inspires the columns of the
Herald.
Yet, in our humble opinion, the Times
ought to see in the argument of Mr. SEWARD
some reason for hoping, or fearing, the suc
cess of the Union cause. But it wont, don't,
and is determined not to.
The fact is, it is surprised, not that our
Government has done so much, but that it
has done so little. Herein we note the con
sequences of morbid and unnatural expecta
tions 7: We are told by the Times that when
the war begun it thought the South would
be conquered in six months, so far as mili
tary power could do it. The Times ex
presses its surprise that the South has shown
such power of resistance, and is disposed to
ridicule Mr. SEWARD because he cannot
recount more glorious achievements; be
cause, after two years of war, " he is re
duced to sing a pecan Over the deliverance
of the North from the invasion of a Soitth.-
ern army." But is the real force of Mr.
SE - wAiro's argument destroyed because the
great expectations of the Times, of which,
till now, ire never heard, were unreason
able ? And is its own argument any strong
er for its false statement of Mr. SKWARD'S
musical necessities. - Mr. SEWARD (lOU, nOt
sine a paaan over the deliverance of the
North. We do not think he sings -any
prim at all. He states facts, which it is the
permanent interest of European statesmen
to consider, and the temporary interest of
the Times to miirepresent. • •
All that can be said in excuse for the
Times, is that Mr. SEWARD'S diplomatic
circular is rather long—necessarily so, re
counting numerous victories—and that the
pale and silent man, or the eminent Euro
pean statesman, was obliged to write of it
without reading it. How else can we, with
out accusing the Times of unfairness, ac-
count for the ignorance of the circular and
of American affairs, displayed in such a state-
went as this ?—"AI that can be said at this
moment of Northern exultation is that the
Federals have taken two places on the Mis
sissippi after sieges three times as costly and
tedious as they were expected to be, and
that they have not had their olyn capital oc
cupied by the enemy, as seenied highly proba-
ble two months ago." Is it in this way that
the pale and silent man writes nations up or
down? Why, as Hamlet says, "it is as
easy as lying." "In point of fact," con
tinues this unknown statesman—made a
statesman by his. own bad grammar---" the
South has had a greater share of victory
than the Did he learn this start-
ling bit of news from the circular ? Where
did he hear this yet more astonishing re-
port Even now General LEE is, by all
accentii, more likely to assume the offen
sive then Gener:il MADE ; and though we
do not hear that the Pederals are Preparing
immediately to invade the territorioil O 2 the
Confederates, we do hear that the Confede
rates maybe e.pected at any moment in the,
country of the Federals." - It is not strange
that the Times, thus assured, "by all ac
counts," of the victorious attitude of the
Southern armies, and ignorant of the very
circular it criticises, of the great victories
in Tennessee,'and of the retreat of LEld on
Richmond, sliould conclude that " the for
tunes of the war are not, upon the whole,
very unevenly balanced." If we allow the
pale and silent man to make his own imagi
nation and ignorance the basis "of his argu
ment, we permit him to prove anything he
wishes. And we do cheerfully grant him
that privilege, for the excellent reason . that
we have learned by long experience that no
human power can prevent him from using
it. Yet, until it is shown that the oilier
statesmen of Europe are equally ignorant
and imaginative, and agree with his opinion,
that Mr. SEWARD' s argument is both inef
fective and needless, we shall not admit his
tronble in writing his circular Was Use
lessly expended.
THE radicals keep up the false and senseless cry
that the rebels desire the election of the conserve.

T4E Lanoaster county Ocpperhcads had
a convention a few days'ago, and adopted
a number of platitudes, which they called
resolutions. The following is one of the
most precious of the number :
Resolved, That the soldiers righting in our armies'
meth the warmest thanks of the nation. Living
they shall know a nation's gratitude; wounded a
nation's care.; and dying they shall live in our me
mories to teach posterity to honor patriots and he
roes who samiticed their lives upon their country's
altar. But we cannot tail to censure the reckless
management of the civil department that manages
them, and the cruel delay to hold out the olive
branch of peace to those erring States, by whisk
this protracted and cruel war may be speedily and
hohorably ended.
If any one can understand the drift of
this resolution, at a single reading, or, at an
infinite number of readings he must be
•possessed of extraordinary intelligence. It
is the lamest attempt we have over seen to
dovetail Peace and War together, and the
joiitts 'will show, in spite of the coat of
rhetorical varnish applied with so much
care. There is quite as much olive branch
as sword, and the sword is very like hypoc
risy. With this slight exception the reso
lution is admirable, not only for its untram
melled gran3mar, but for its humane and
forgiving spirit, and we are not quite sure
that we have not been hypercritical in what

Special Despatches to The Prese.
WASILIIMTON, D. C., Sept. 20, 1863
The National Treasury.
It is proper the public should be cautioned against
bills purporting to be upon the i' , Government
Ban's," which unprincipled persons are attempting
to put into circulation. They are dated at Wash
ington, and purporting to be "payable on demand,"
and, being of a greenish color, they are liable to be
mistaken by the unwary for the old issue of United
States notes, most of which have been redeemed and
cancelled by the Treasury Department. It is said
they have been passed quite extensively about New
York. No such bank exists. An office, with the
sign "Government Daniel" over its door, was some
time ago closed.by the Provost Marshal of the War
Department
The Treasurer of the United States has recently
received additional evidence that i llhe two millions
of dollars for the pay of General GRANT'S army
were actually, on board the Ruth at the time of the
fire. Much of the money has been recovered, in a
charred condition, and a commission has been ap•
pointed to extend the search for the portion yet mis
sing.
Since the conflagration at Lawrence, Kansas,
eight or nine packages of notes have been sent to
the• Treasury, to be exchanged for others.. They
were subjected to fire, but not to much injured that
their real character cannot be easily identified. It
seems that, in the case of the treasury notes, the
chemicals employed form a coating which affords
partial protection from flame. •
It is ascertained that of the fifty-cent postage cur
rency there are nine different counterfeits; of the
twenty•fives and tens, two counterfeits each, and
of the fives, one ; to say nothing of the mutilation of
notes, the fragments of which are pasted together to
form "currency," by those whose gains, in this re
spect, would be - at' least equal if their labor were de
voted to honest toil.'
The present postage currency is coming into the
treasury at the rate of about fifty thousand dollars
a day; and about two millions of the twenty millions
of dollars in those small denominations have al-
Na L ;; . ,- been itturod. The fifty anitwenty-five-cent
notes will be withdrawn, aril the new and improveN
Issues will soon begin to take the; r plea. The
withdrawal of the fives and tens will be more gra
dual:
All the.4otes returned are counted in the Treasu
rer's office, put up in packages of ten dollars, and
then cut in halcf,l by means of a machine. Each
half parcel is agallh counted by a different person,
thus making three °midis, The labels on each pack
age are in duplicate, with the name of the first
counter written thereon. So in, ease of a mistake,
reference can readily be made to the register, and
the error corrected. About thirty young ladies are
employed in this busines in the Treasurer's bureau,
together with male clerks, all under the special
direction of General Sruciann, the Treasurer of the
United States, whose efficiency and close, applica
tion to business does not seem to impair his apps•
rent robust health. It Is said that during last year
he worked, with only occasional deviations, seven.
teen hours a day.

The guerillas still infest the southern side of the
Potomac, occasionally capturing sutlers' property.
Such was the case on Thursday, when thirteen,

commanded by Captain STRINGFELLOW, while on
their way from Catlett , s to 13zistow Station. These
teams had become separated from the few others in
the train, when the robbers suddenly approached
from the woods, and with pistobriu hand, seized and
drove them beyond the possibility of recapture. A
negro driver was flied at three times by one of the
desperadoes, but he escaped unhurt, owing to his
activity in dodging .the shots. A lieutenant being
with the train and in proximity to the guerillas,
after exchanging pistol shots with. them, ran oil , for
aesiatance, and while he was- returning at 'the'
head of a portion of infantry of the railroad guard,
the guerillas (wieldy mounted their horses and left
the scene of plunder. The condUct' of the U. S.

An engagement begun this morning at eleven
o'clock with a heavy attack on General Thomas,

be merely a feint.= The left wan composed of Me
Cool Os. and Crittenden's troops thrown in as eon

very desperate. The enemy was repulsed, but on
being reinforced regained their positloe, from which
they were subsequently driven, after adesperate en

charged them for nearly a mile, punishing, them
severely. •
About 2 P. M. the rebels made a dash at the
ceLtre, composed of Van Cleve's and Reynolds' di
visions. The former was struck on the right iienk,
and being vigorously pushed, fell back until the
centre was broken and the -troops much scattered.
General Thomas on the left, and Gen. Davis on the
right, threw forward their forces vigorously. towards
the gap, and after a hard fight recovered the lost
ground. The fight on the extreme right has been

RU➢IORS ADVERSE AND OTHERWISE.
Louis - N.-Imm, Sept.-no.—All kinds of exciting ru
mors are prevalent here with regard to the Army of
the Cumbeiland, and some of the rumors are quite
adverse to General Rosecrans, but these are mere
conjectures, as the Government has possession of
the lines, and nothing has been received. There is
very little prospect of receiving anything to-night.

[Correspondence of The Press.]
'NORRISTOWN, Pa,, Sept. 18, 1863
Old Montgomery is alive. The Draft Board hear
all ',the daims lor exemption at Norristown, and, as
a consequence, a large number of Lehigh.counly
men are daily - in town.
Yesterday the largest woods meeting ever held in
our county came oft' in Atkinson's Grove, in Upper
Dublin township. The procession was over two
miles long, and not less than ten thousand people
thronged the vast shaded space where the meeting
Was held. Charles Kugler, Hon. David Krause (two
of our oldest Democrats), Colonel Montgomery
frOm Flensburg, Chase from New York, and Charles
Gilpin and Morton McMichael, of Philadelphia,
made speeches, and the enthusiasm for the speakers
and for Curtin was unbounded. Curtin meetings have
been held, weekly at Pottstown, Norristown, and
Conshohocken, and other boroughs and villages
throughout the county, and political meetings have
never been so well attended here as these. A good
sign is, that the opposition ratings are small.
Their majority will be small.
Governor Curtin will be in Norristown on Tues
day next, the 22d instant, when it is expected there
will be the grandest demonstration of the year. He
will be welcomed to Norristown as he never was re
ceived before. We knew him in 1860 as a politioian
and a man; we know him now as a man, a states.
man, and a patriot—the prince of all the loyal Go
vernors of tiro-Nnitli.

WAINTIT•STRIkET TRxATßE.—Saturday evening
was the occasion of the last appearance of
Senorita Cubes. For the last two nights this artiste
has not only acted before audiences of great num
bers, but has acted before them with an energy
which altogether electrified them. We are told that
Tetrarch's lyre was like "morning light, half dew
half fire." It is riot hyperbole to say that the ex
ecutions of Cubes in dance and pantomime are such.
Where such unusual merit is so very apparent, it
is almost as much pleasure to give unqualified
praise, as it is to witness the performances which
involuntatily elicit it. These references are made
with respect to that legitimate sphere to which
Senorita Cubai has, during the last week (with the
exception of her benefit night) confined herself. All
who witnessed her performance in " Lavengro,"
must remember the exhibition with mingled feelings
of amusement and regret. The attempt, however,
was looked upon as nothing more than an attempt,
and as, indeed, a very arduous one. Complete suc
cess would merely have added another gem (which
she doei not now) to the shining circle of auccess
and fame which so_ brilliantly encrowns her. But
it was a dead failure, and we are' exceedingly glad
that this very interesting artiste had the sagacity to
take the cue which the opinions of, both press and
public unmistakably gave. '
The "French Spy" is tlae piece which Senorita
Cubas has made her own. The part she takes there
belongs to her. The whole burden of the play rests
upon her; upon her the entire interest is concen
trated. The versatility with which she assumes the
various characters, the laughter, drollery, fun,
shame, rage, rapture, which by turns fire and bedew
her eyea,and enwreathe every feature,are no animated
and and fascinating as ,to be irresistible to
anybody but anrinsiZ ite • Would the y be irresisti
ble to him? The Arab dame,at the beginning of
the second act, the rapt abstracted with 'which
she pretends to see visions, and the passion `Pith
which she interprets them, completely enchain
every heart to which they speak. Many will think,
perhapa ; that this is extravagant praise, and some
who know nothing -at all about irwill say that we
are according to second-rate artistes the homage
which is the natural right of one who is first , ebles.
We do not tbik so.
Remembering the mote in which she descends the
prison wall, in the second act, and the beautiful pic
tures ehe Berme involuntarily to form whilst de
scending, as she clings to• crevices, and feels her
desperate way along, remembering rot only the•
wonderful sword.cumbat, but the uncontrollable
shame and agony which she so touchingly evinces,
upon its being discovered that she is a woman, we
cannot think we have said too much of an artiste,
who, whatever else sNe may not possess; possesses
the immense attraction of being a beautiful -woman,
always brilliant, always pleasing, always consclen
trona. It cannot but Nave been noticed by close
observers that there has been, particularly on Satur
day evening, a certain falling off in the energy of
the delineations. The public is not, perhaps, aware
of the fact that the performer who so delighted
them has been seriously ill during her present en
gagement ; so unwell, indeed; that it woe highly un
advisable for her to perform.
But she would perform, and;she did.- With all her
efforts—they must have been painful and unceasing
--to be herself, and, therefore, •to apPear to other :
eyes to be and not to seem the character represented,
it was not difficult to perceive r direatly Cubes came
upon the stage. on Saturday sight, that it might
prove questionable whether she• could get through
creditably. Whether she did so or not we do not
know, for we left the theatre before the play was
finished. The performance was necessarily painful,
not only to the lovely artist, but likewise to that
portion of the audience sagacious enough twappre-
Mate and pity.. We merely mention•the eircum
stance because it illustrates the imperative claims
which beset the life of the actor—elaims rising out
of engagements, and the demgedo of a publiewhich,
howevei,indulgent, does not like to be disappointed.
We have parted with Senorita Cubes, and we do
not know when she will return. She goes hence to
fulfil other engagements which will be equally suc
cessful with this lash- We hope to meet her again
soon, for she Presents claims to admiration and re
gard such as are not often presented by any other
artist with so much chance or reason for being re
cognized.
In conjunction with the performances of Saturday
evening, we have to notice the production of " Lu
cretia Borgia." Miss Sarah .Perrin, an entire
stranger in this city; but better known in the West,
was the Lucretia of the evening. We thought that
she performed this very heavi character with con
siderable merit. The lady , is neither very young
nor very handsome. She dresses with care, and
some taste, and in form is tall and woll•propor
joned. In the first act she read the letter which
Gennaro (Mr. Hascomb) shown.her, with effect.
Her appeals to Gennaro weramade with much pas
sim!, and her interview with him after he has drunk:
the poleon from the goblet o.egold, was; perhaps, the
beet ,thing in the play. There were not suffiotaat
salfent points for criticismto take hold of, but the
lady's general perforniance may be pronounced fair.
She was warmly applauded throughout the plan and
when she acknowledged the compAtment of a call at
the close. Mr. Bascom)) handled, the dagger, whilst
about stabbing Literate, in a mariner ridiculous
enough to tickle the galleries, and there is nothing
to be paid of any of the rest, The houtra was com
pletely jammed—a source of legitimate satisfaction
to•the management.
Thie evening Miss Lupine Western, who is err.
gaged for 'ix-. nights, makes her first .appear

and equally magnificent impronnbilitles, 12as coati
nued to be the attraction at this theatre .for thc
past wear'. A very great attraction it has 'roved,.
and will continue to prove, judging from the size
and enthusiasm of the audiences.
A n.CH•STRAILT TFIZATRE.-^.To the Arch belongothe'
credit of giving us the lii st opera of the season, and
to Mils Richinge the honor of producing the waits
of en Amerioadcompormr. We have never thought ,
that American art, music and literature, should be'
patronised simply because it is i Amertese, for the
interests of all art are cosmopolitan, and .it is to.) ,
much to expect art-lovers to sacrifice• taste atl ,
judgment to patriotism. Ten or twelvs years ago
our painters were indignant that gentlemen of
wealth and culture should buy more pictures front
European than from. American artists. Yer this
was the best way to encourage our own art, as the
event has proven. American musicianu have also
complained of the impossibility of getting their
works produced, forgetting that the public preferred
genius to noccliociity. But the complaint , was not
withoutjustioe. It is one . thing to acknorsiedge the
supremacy of genius ; another, to refuse,mny en
couragement to merit. We need the best art
the world can supply, and if a great opera is
written in Uganda, by all means let Maretzek
produce it. Yet if we are ever to have a great
school of our own, we must respect the attempts to
found it. Wallace's operas were here denied the
opportunities they found in England. Mr. George
F. flenkert, of this city, has written more than one --
opera which only needs to be sung to become popu
lar. Mr. Theodore Eichberg, of Boston, has proved
hie-right to be heard in the pleasant melotty of "The
Rose of Tyrol," which Miss Richings produced last
week, and in the yet superio) music of "The Doctor
of.Alcantara," which will be sung to-night The
English opera at this theatre deserves ilc;popularity.
Biles Etchings' ability, especially, needs no compli
ment, and the management produces the opera with
excellent' taste.
MUSICAL AND DRAMATitCAL.
..Tun gERMAIs.: Orman.-Mr. Anchutr will begin
his musical season, during the first week of October,
in Baltimore. The company will then visit Wash
baton. At our Academy of Music it will begin Na.
vember 2d, and probably remain the month. The
new artistes engaged by Mr. Anchuta are now in. New.
York, where the rehearsals of several new operas:
are actively progressing. The new prima .Donna,
ie Madame Ilimmer•Prederici, fresa Berlin, said. to,

Vienna. Messrs. Weinlish, Graff, and Kfontield, of
the old company, are raengaged. The. orcheatra
and chorus will be superSor to those of last season,
and, therefore, will be tmusually fine. We are glad
to learn that Mr. A. Bilgfeld will remain the busi
ness agent of Mr, Atiehutz in this city. We have
already spoken of the new operas to. be given, and
if the new artistes possess the merit we have a right
to expect, Gorman Opera will cervasto be an experi
ment in America.
—The dramatic critics of New York have original
style, which has one mdrit—that of never being seri
ous. Its mannerism has become monstrous. In the
laborious liveliness of these monotonous articles,
the authors show great iugenuity in avoiding, their
proper subject—the performances. In the Lvader,
of last week, "Figaro," one of the Cleverest of these
critics, has so much to say of the President, Louis
Napoleon, and Mr. Seward, that he can spare Mr.
Forrest but three lines. "Figaro" thus good•na
turedly alludes to this absurdity: "I remember that
some time since when your friend Mc Axone was
down somewhere in- Jersey hunting the bounding
clam,' he wrote me a note saying that he thought it
wouldp't be amiss in a Dramatic. Feuilleton to say
econething now and then about the drama."
On Tuesday week Mlle. Vestvali makes her
theatrical ddbut at Niblo's, appearing in Matilda
Heron's translation or Victor Sejour's "La Tireuee
de Cartes," the English title of which is to be
" Gamia, or the Jewish Mother." Before the close
of the season she will play Romeo, in " Romeo and
Juliet." She is also studying the part of Lagardere
in "The Duke's Motto." Mr. Wheatley's next
star after Yestvali will be Matilda Heron, who will
be followed by Mr. and Mrs. Barney Williams.
Mies Heron commences an engagement this evening
in Pittebing, after which she will come to Phila
delphia.
—At Wallack's, Mr. Moss closed his season on
Wednesday. It will long be remembered as the
great Ghost season. The house will remain closed
until next Monday, wlan Mr. Wallack will open
his regular campaign with a new tive.act comedy by
Mr. Lester Wallach. Mr. Stoepel has resigned his
position as musical conductor, and Mr. Edward Mol
-1=1110,;Lte. of the `,Vinter Garden, has been ap
pointed in his place. Mr. Mollenhauer is succeeded
by Mr. Cooke, for a long time the favorite conductor
at Niblo's. Among the other additions to Mr. Wal
lack's company are Miss lone Burke, and Mr. Daly,
formerly of Laura Keene's.
Mr. Forrest is announced to play Mello to.
night, for the second and last time this season. Mr.
Bandmann's engagement ends this week, and it is
reported that he will appear as Hamlet. "
—At Barnum's Museum "five Medina Ghosts
appear all at one time, a thieg never before at
tempted in this country, besides an irresistibly lu
dicrouslarce," This phraseology ie, doubtless, very
suitable:to the performance advertised. It is more
likely, however, that five indistinot ghosts will en
deavor to appear.
In Brooklyn the little Park Theatre bids fair
to be a brilliant success. This week's performance
will be opened with Planche's musical extrava•
genza of "Beauty and the Beast," and the comedy
of " Faint Heart Never Won Fair Lady." At the
Brooklyn Academy, Miss Laura Keene commences
a short season to night, with "Masks and Faces,"
and a new burlesque written by Mr. Frank Wood,
and entitled "The Marble Maiden, or the Ghost of
Cologne."
—Miss Cushman plays again, gratuitously (this
time in -Boston), next Saturday evening, for the
benefit of the Sanitary Commission. This lady's
home for a number of years past hhs been in Rome,
and she will return next month to her residence in
that city, where she is honored alike by native and
stranger residents. No saloon for years has had
more attractions for those who are interested in art
and literature than hers.
—Mr. Lewis Baker commences the season at the
Varieties Theatre, New Orleans the first week in
November. • He has already secured as members of
his company, Mr. Setchell, Lawrence P. Barrett,
and Alexina Fisher Baker.
Mr, J . B. Roberts was the star last week at the
Metropolitan Theatre, Buffalo.
Cubes commences a month's engagement at the
Boston Theatre on the 28th instant.
FOREIGIC—The London Lyceum is to reopen 'some
time this month with " The Duke's "Motto," with
new dresses and scenery, and a new mechanical
French stage, which is to be erected at a cost, it is
said, of 53,C00. Mr. Fechter was to have made this
new invention one of thegreat features of the open
ing of his managerial campaign, but time would not
allow of the project being carried out. It will abo
lish the necessity of the time•honored stage foot
nen, so dexterous hitherto in the art of removing
tables and chairs.
Liverpool Courier of September I says : Last
night - a briiiiant house assembled in the Prince of
Wales Theatre to welcome once more Mr. E. A. So.
them to his native town. After the ill-founded
rumor that has( teen industriously circulated as to
his alleged illness, we are glad to tell his friends—
and they are coextensive with the community—that
his lordship is, in good health, and plays with all
his accustomed force and originality. "Our Ameri
can Cousin" has already been produced at the Prince
of Wales Theatre, and was there, as it has been
everywhere else, n loadstone of attraction.- A pro
longed engagement did not exhaust Mr. Sothern's
popularity, but every evening saw him surrounded
by admirers. ,

—Mlle. Carlotta Patti is creating a furore at Mr.
Alfred Mellon's cements in London. Her singing,
says a- London critic, " electrifies by its spirit and
brilliancy." He further states: "In the second part
of the aoncert, wherein she warbled Musio's bird
like song, L'Usigneeolo,' the rivalries of Hatti's
.voice and PratteiPa flute enchanted the auditory,
and a furore of applause followed her closing' ca
denza. The lady returned, led on by Mr. Malon e
and raised the house to enthusiasm when she smi
lingly began Robert' Barns' thro'
the Rye,' in most distinct Anglo-Scottiali phrasing..
It was a bit - of arch simplicity in word, musie, and
expression, after the elaborate division of the night
ingale song which preceded it."
The debut of Madame Tietjens, in the "
note," before the audience . of the grand opera fn
Paris, last month, created a great furore. A corres

contrast of Mlle Adelina Patti with - the new opera

"Considering the dullness of the season, Mme..

The musical coition here consider that she is even
superior to Mlle. Patti. Her style is thought more
correct, her talentmore profound, and her execution
of chromatic scales more clear, and in no wise betray.

are not, however, admired by the Parisians, if ex
ception be made to her beautiful blue eyes, so expres

expressing the strong emotions of the South. Mer
manner of bringing
nut her chest notes is pro
nounced defective, but her acting pleases. It has'
been justly remarked that she better represents the
virtues than theip antitypes, and that in the idle of a
heroine whose passions-are too stormy for reel life,
her acting seems more the resultof nervous , excite

Another excitement at the Imperial Academy
is the extraordinary performance of a Polish den

of " Grisells." The moot important ilnelligence,

A Parisian obituary contains the name of F.
Bimini, for many years one of the most successful
composers of romonaes (ballads) in Paris. Twenty
yeses ago there was a furore in France for that class
of :nude. About - Christmas time there used to ap
pear a number GE musical albums, intended partly
as New Year's gifts, and containing a dozen or moue
songs, duets, neffurni, etc., sometimes contributed
by several compesers, sometimes all by one. Via

several of the French detaahed songs, which have

ARRIVAL OF TUE UNITED STATES STEAM
ER. COWETIAUOII.—The United States double-bowed
steamer Conemaugh arrived , at Quarantine on
Friday afternoon buff, where'she had her poimXr
taken out, and laid there alb night, and arrived
the envy yard on Saturday 'nothing. She left Port
Jinyal, and stopped in Chatieston,,barbor on the'
Mtn. The bombardment was wing on slowly when
she left. This vessel was built in.Portsmouta, New
P.-.ampshire, and was ordered to ffVe South Atlantic
; Blockading Squadron, where stehas been in active
:service her fifteen months, whicn is a imager period
! than any other doubinhowed steamer in the service.
:She was the first wooden gunboat thnt crossed
:Charleston bar, and attackeAtheTebel forts in the
;harbor, and, although under heavy fire lot some
time, she escaped aff danger. No prizes have been
;taken by this vessel, bat she ran itw., rebel steamer
:Imes of the Wave on shore off Santee, calming the
rebels to blow her up. Part of her machinery was
:raved, which was sent North, also seven priecners.
She also destroyed a fleet of seven weight steamers
and schooners laden with cotton in titirrelits
'Ranh Carolina. A bridge was likewise destroyed
near Georgetown which conneccei , South Island
with the main lend.
The rebels attempted to bring some-guns across
the-bridge,'to tire on the steamer, when- a itirce of
thirty men were landed, which drove the rebels
away and set fire to the bridge. She- is considered
the lastest vessel in the South Atlantic Sqoadron,
which is all owing to her engines, which , are- sub.
Ofii,Dlially built, and handsome in every resnect,
allowing great attention has been paid by those
having charge of this part of the vessel. IVlneh , re.
pairing is required, as the vessel is weak, anither
timbers need strengthening, and ske.-- will, moat
likely, be taken to New York for that purpose, as
tiltre , are more vessels at OW navy yawl now than
can be well attended to. The Oonemaugh carries
one.lbinch Dahlgren, one 100-pounden Parrott, four
ninch Dahlgren guns, and two 21-pounder bowit

FINANCIAL AND COMitIERCIAL,
THE MONEY MARKET.
PHILADELPHIA, SCPteraber 19, 1963
The week closes on a steady Stock market, and
money in plentiful simply at 6 per cent. Gold to-day
continued steadily, to advance übtil ir reached 13,53,
closing "A lower. A numerous class of people, afraid of
foreign war, are buying gold largely, and each advance
in the price frightens them worse and renders them still
more persistent in their purchases. These folks should
reinemner that it is against the, interests of the Govern
ment and its loans for gold to advance; that the Govern
ment is bound to protect its issues, and will not allow
them to depreciate, simply became a few operators wish
thty should. The said tenancies any time cad spare two
or three millions of gold to throw on the market and de- .
press the price, and what would seem profitable and
probable for Seeretary Chase to do, it is at least possible
he may do. The operation is plain. Any man would
do the same to protect his business, and why should
not the. Secretary employ all the vast meatis at hia
command io save hi; paper from depreciation? It
may be foresight which impels the baying of geld
at these advancing figures; hut if It 15 Of thitt kind
which a buyer exhibited to-day when he said con
fidentially, "Gold will be IEO in thirts days," we pity
the foresight and. the possessor together, at the saute
time sincerely hoping that such may not be the fact.

The Niw York Post of to-day says:
The lean market is moderately active, with a full sup
ply of capital; and some of the brokers, finding it less
easy to lend the surplus which they have on hand, are
very willing to accept 53;;(4.6 per cent. Still f-be emoted
rates at the money-lending institutions are 6@7 on ordi
nary securities, and the extreme rate is willingly given
by patties who do not wish their loans to be d:sturbed.
To sre are,-however, a considerable number of 30 tad 66
day loans now running at 7 per cent . which were made
during the speculative excitement three weeks ago. In
consequence of the ease in money some of the borrowers,
if Per iniGed, would glee ly pay off these Maus, so as to
is place than at 6, and a considerable amount of renewa
ble and colt leans at l have thus been paid off this morn
ing.
The stock market opened strong, and closed with some
what less indisposition to sell. Governments are quiet,
except the debt certificates, tor which there is an in
creasing demand at full prices. Border-State bonds are
nem, railroad bonds strong, and bank shares quiet.
Railroad-shares are not very active, but quotations are
steady and holders are firm.
New York Central. Erie, and Michigan Southern are
the most active of the railway stocks, and in each there
is reported to be a large short Interest.
