Let us im plore of the Giver of every good- and per f eet gift that, for His dear Son's sake, He will bestow upon this whole people in the grace of sincere contrition and amend ment, and that in Rib own good time, and in His own mysterious way, He will again restore to us the blessings of peace, and the stability of a righteous and godly concord. Let us think less of the sins of those who are arrayed against us, and more of our own. Let us remember that the race is not to the awitt, nor the battle to the strong; and, instead of vain confi dence in our own resources, or our own strength, let us remember that, unless the Lord go forth with our armies defeat awaits the most stupendous efforts and preparations, and that unless He give graze and wisdom to nur rulers and peo• ple all our counsels will come to nought."

Serenade to Col. Etambright--- speech efltlayor Sanderson, die. . Last evening a - number of the persona, frienda and admirers of Col. -Hambrightl of fhegallant 79th Regiment, now ou brief visit - to his home in -this City, com plimented him with a flattering serenade, haiing secured the services of the Fenci bles' Band, which was formerly attached to the regiinent. The notice of the seren ade was not made general, else there would have been a very large turn out of citizens to do honor to the leader of our heroic 791, regardless of the unfavorable state of the weather. The band reached the Colonel's residence about half past nine o'closk in the midst of a heavy shower, and began with the beautiful and appro priate air of "Home again from a _foreign shore," which was followed by several. stional airs. The company then entered the house, when Mayor Sanderson spoke an address of welcome, in substance as follcws: Col. .11ambright : Your fellow citizens of Lancaster have done uiq the honor to constitute me the medium through which to express the gratification at again iueet lug you at your own home and fireside after an absence of more than eighteen months in the military service of the man try. Rest assured, sir, we are oaf glad to see you, and bid you a heartfelt welcome to oar midst. It was not necessary, Colonel, that you should leave the comforts and endear meats of home for the purpose of em barking in the present war for the Union, !o establish a character for bravery and d s .,c,:ion to the flag ofyoor pantry. Both had years ago been tested on the battle fields - of Mexico, fend you - returned from that sanguinary war covered with laurels and enjoying the confidence and esteem of all your fellow citizens. But, no sooner had the tocsin of war again sounded, and the institutions of your country become imperiled through treasonable attempts against the authorities-of the government, than you at once buckled on your awl:ad and gallantly stepped forth in defence of the oltrflai—lea4ing the brave men who followed your standard to glory and victo tory. Our citizens had coafidence, not only in your skill and bravery, but in your care and attention to the comforts and habita of the men under your command— hence they cheerfully entrusted to your sate keeping and fatherly care, their sons and brothers who left, their homes with you - to - battle for our beloved coma try. Are have not been disappointed in the gallant Seventy-Ninth Regiment, nor in you, Sir, their ,brave and accomplished ea:mender. In your long and weary marches through Kentucky and Tennes .-,ce—io sour exposure to the summer's heat, and Winter's cold, as well as in the gallant bearing of yourself and men on the bloody field of Chaplin Hills, and at blur eeshoro, you nobly sustained your repti cation and added new lustre to the undy ing fame which will ever be attached to the Lancaster County Regiment of Penn sylvania volunteers. In the battle of Chap lin Rills, when other regiments became panic stricken and ignominiously fled from the field, thus endangering the whole ar my, you, Sir, held the Seventy-Ninth to its work in the midst of carnage and death, without flinching or wavering, and turned the fortune of the day in our favor. had it not been for the heroic bravery and un flinching determination of yourself 'and men in that terrible conflict, in all human probability a disastrous defeat, instead of a splendid 'victory, would have been the fate of the Union army. All honor, then, to the brave Seventy• Ninth and its heroic commander.. And the people of ;Lances ter appreciated your patriotic services by presenting you with a stand of colors which they know will never be surrendered to the enemy, or Captured while there is an officer or soldier left in the regiment to de fend them. it now remains for me, Col. Hambright, on behalf of the eitiz'emt of Lancaster, and in consonance with my own feelings to bid you a hearty welcome to your family and home. May the God of battles protect you, and when yon rejoin your regiment and are again callsd to defend the honors of the atexis and stripes, and tho integrity of our beloved Union upon the battle fields of our eoutotry, may His arm shield you, and His blessing follow you and the noble men under your cpmmantl, and may you, one and all, at the arose, of this terrible and unnaturariiiri - lan-ielitorecl to fmpilies and friends—to:the sweet and endearing sea°• ciations of home..

Jones is now on his way East, positivoly,deliver one -lecture in this city at Lafayette Hall, on Friday evening, May Ist:-=He has selected for 'hie - subject, Garibaldi. The Wasjiiegton 'Chronicle speaka - thits of his lectured "As an orator Mason Jones 711 undeniJ, ably a remarkable man. His eloquence . is of that special class which winsupon, the audit& the longer the speaker is list ened to. Although he speaks two hours without the use of water, he wiles away the time so pleasantly that the con clusion of the lecture comes about too soon, and we could willingly listen for' an hour or two more. In avoice of great power and full of music, but flavored with a little of the native Doric ac cent of the land whence he comes, Mason Jones told the whole story of Garibal di's life, running it over 'even from his boyhood days.' Having been with him in his battles, witnessed his victories, and entered Naples with him in triumph. Mason Jones is eminently , qualified to detail the story of the Italian struggle for freedom and for unity. He did so last evening in words of fiery Dower , and of transcendent eloquence. The in tervention of the Emperor of the French in Italian affairs was announced in terms of the most undisguised indigna tion, and was received by the audience -with approving plaudits ;of the warmest description, The oration was wound up with en anticipatory picture of the Italy of the future, painted with all the rich color ing of a itubens, and with all the vigor' and' grandeur of a Salvator Rosa. He made his mark last evening, and no matter what may be the subject selected for any future oration, Mason Jones - is sure of having a Large audience in Washington." Emma Waller at the Theatre. This eminent actress appears for the last time during her present engagement in her unapproachable character of the Duchess of Malfi, this evening. The past week_ has been one long to be remembered by. the lovers of dramatic art, for we are ; Among those who cherish the belief that Mrs. Waller is one of those great lights, which appear at remote intervals, to show us what it is possible for genius to accom plish. Such was the great Siddous,:whose wonderful powers were the theme of ad. miring eulogy from the greatest minds of the age in which she lived, and as we have never seen in the past, so we never expect to see again such transcendent ability as is exhibited by Mrs. Wailer in the high est walks of dramatic art. For us she will ever live as the great embodiment of the tragic muse, the skill- ful interpreter of all the beautiful, pee s:onate and awful creations of the masters of_poesy. — BM. acting is free from all the conven tional ranting which so frequently disfig• lures the efforts of actors and actresses, and which has no prototype in nature. Cairn, lady like and self possessed,- th e ordinary language of every day life drops from her lips "like beautiful coins just issued from the mint," clearly efuressing the most delicate shades of thought by the most natural gradations of musical tones and inflections. Bat where the language of the author requires the exhi bition of energy and passion, she rises with a power ever equal to the occasion to the highest pitch of tragic grandeur, carry ingheraudience captive by the magic in fluence of her genius. Such acting as hers can only be the re sult of strong intellectual faculties joined to profound critical acumen and a wel tedipered imagination. A Good Improvement. That part of the West Commons known as the old grave-yard lot, lying between &nektons avenue and Water street, Al legheny city, has been graded otT, and is now being covered with black loom for planting clover, grass and the setting out of shade trees, this is a great improve ment to 'the lots fronting on this part of that city. In a short time Allegheny can boast of as fine parks as any city in the West. . Lumber. Lumber has been arriving in fair lots from the pine regions. This is the second run that some of the ln mber men have made this spring; they sell at once at good prices, and many of them, should we have a June fresh, will be again down with lots. The Railroads and steam boats take them back biome with so little delay, that a run consumes but little time; the high price of lumber is a great inducement to get every log and board to the front. inquest, ifeid. Coroner McClung heldan inquest °tithe body of a man named Thomas Dunlap, on Saturday evening, who was killed during the day by jumping off the cars of the Pennsylvania Railroad, near Denny's curve.

We notice several lumber rafts from the head waters of the Allegheny river, at our landings, loaded with very fine ice. Mr. Ashley has discharged one on the Al legheny side, as fine ice as can be put up, and warranted free from oil. In future this will become quite a business, giving an article of ice from a region where it does not often get over warm, and paying a handsome profit to the Lumber Boys.
