He commenced by saying that his object was to develop a spirit of patriotism among the people, and not to enter into a discussion of causes. He defined the duty of citizens to be to cultivate a spirit of self-denial, for that before peace shall be proclaimed there will be such self sac rifice needed as the world never witnessed. He said that in his opinion the conflict was likely to last for years, and could not be terminated, but by force of arms. He had-conversed with rebel prisoners, free ly, and every one of them expressed his determination to prosecute the war to the end, even if the most liberal peace measures were proposed by the North, there could be no permanent peace. He dwelt upon the fact that, there were en couraging and discouraging circumstances connected with the present state of affairs; that there was no murmiring in the ranks of the Potomac army, that there was con fidence in Hooker, and more in the cause for which, they were fighting. He said that there had been too much talk about this and that General, bat that he had as much confidence in Hooker as any other, though he doubted whether he was the Joshua to lead him on to victory. The chief brunt of the late battle was borne by three quarters of a mile front, the object of the enemy being to press through the centre,and that Gen. Hooker managed the line as well as any general in the world could have done. He saw him leading three brigades in person. He denied that the high water and scarcity of rations was the cause of retreat, and waited for Hook. er's report for the true reason. He left the army of the Potomac in good spirits, and ready to fight until the powetof _the government shall be restored. He paid a high tribute to the ability of Gen. Lee.— He referred to Vallandigham and his brethren in the North, as being worthy of great blame in not sapporting the govern ment. It is not in oar power 4) give any thing more than a skeleton outline of the lecture. He closed by a strong appeal to the patriotism of the people to support the government in all its measures.

The Soitee Musicale of Prof, J. T, Wamelink last night at Masonic Hall, was the great triumph of the season. The hall was at an early hour filled with one of the largest and most fashonable audiences ever gathered within its walls. The pro gramme, though somewhat lengthy, was admirably solicited, and the young misses acquitted themselves in such a manner as to draw frequent plaudits. Several pieces were encored, and the audience would not be satisfied until they were repeated. Miss Sue Beck astonished all who heard her. She has a powerful voice and her control of it is wonderful for one so young. As she grows older, and her voice be. comes stronger she will make a splendid singer,if she does not task herself t o ) mud', and strain it. Miss E. Smith, Miss L, Osgood and Miss McCarthy, each gang a beautiful song which w tit encored. The Aavil Chorus as performed 17 the pupils, and the members of the Frohtunn Society is worthy of special notice. It was beauti fully executed, and was warmly applaud• ed. Miss F. Myers sang the solo, and acquitted herself in a very graceful man ner. If we fail to mention all, it is not because they are undeserving, but the late hour and the press of other matter pre cludes the possibility of giving an extend ed notice. We are sure that out of that crowded audience there was not one who went away with other feelings than those cf extreme gratification and pleasure. Mr. Wamelink is deservedly popular, and it is no wonder, when his pupils exhibit such marked proficiency. The merits of a man is always judged of 1)7 his saecess, and if Mr. W. is weighed in the same tab ance his merits must be great indeed. The public will not soon cloy with his entertainments, Theatre—Mr. and Mrs. F. B Conway.

In the profession they adorn they are aegonfl to none, and have created an immenee sensation in Cincinnati,Louisville and St. Louis, where they have played to overflowing houses. One great feature of their engagement is the production of new pieces by the expe. finned dramatist De. Walden, written expressly for them and which being copy righted can be played only by themselves. They appear on Monday evening in De Wedclanla five act drama of "The Guide of the Alps," in which they sustain their orig. 'nal characters, Personal. Mr. T. B.

Co., agents in this city for the Wheeler it Wil son Sewing Machine, correcting an errone ous statement which has been circulated throughout the papers, to the effect that the Howe Sewing Machine was awarded fire gold medals at the World's Fair.— Without offering at present any opinion as to the merits of either of the machines in controversy. we may state that we have been the official report of the commission ers of the World's Fair, and in this report it is stated by the commissioners them- selves that but one medal was given to any exhibitor; and further, that all awards made by the Judges are published in the report.—United Pres., May 20. Corns and Bunions.
