On bust Friday morning we gave a edictal of the pief' of
made to be executed at the roncert of the German c ienr,r.
bond, on Tuoeday evening, June Rth. We give I,le,
metrical translation of the song of the old fisherman, y. 6 ch
i,. one of the finest parte of the composition
conun,.ncod at noon today, and we line,
y ill in rapidly diapoaed of:
FISHERMAN'S SONG
Fttimi the Mttsleal r ibl nn dm Meettlitrand
And when our fishermen put bravely to be.;
We old men at home engaged shall be ;
Whilst weaving the net, and twisting the strand,
We 011.11 teach the youth of our native land.
Come hither then children, attend to my tale,
For truly its moral must prove of avail ;
I'll teach you how high and lofty a place,
The fisherman hold by God's good grace.
From Creation's account, in the Scriptures roid,
To where the Deluge's fearful tale you meet,
Who did escape from the huge, tow'ring W4OO ?
Whom did the Great Judge deem worthy to save?
Was it not him who the first frigate built,
Heaven had preserved b,can.9e fte from guilt
God had left Noah on earth the only man,
For highest are seaman placed iu his plan.
And when upon earth appeared our Lord,
In humble form, to preach Il in word,
Where loved He to linger—and teaching, to stand,
But on the ecaehore—ou Genezareth's strand
And whom did Ile call Hie disciples to be—
Who else but fishermen and sailors chose lle ?
Do not Saint Peter, taint John, Saint Jamei, aye al
Precede us—fiiherinra—to Heaven's bright hull.
Be true, then, oh children, to the trader of the strand
True to the sea, and our dear native land.
When God calla you off on the boisterous wave,
The sea then will give yon a friendly grave
In swelling moss, or vault so crystal clear;
_Yell sleep till the angels lost trumpet yo hear;
Like gallant tars, then, yo'll bo weary of rest,
And merrily steer for the land of the bleat.
Toe UNION OF THE PIIIISDY.ERIAN CULTROLIE9.—The Synods
of the Associate Reformed and Associate Churches, which
ease been in session here for the past week, have at length
agreed upon forming a 'anion of the two churches. This
has long been-in contemplation, though hitherto all efforts
to effect it have been fruitless. Its consummation will
dcubtle.s afford much gratification to the members of both
Churches, as the necessity of sustaining two churches and
two ministers iu the ssme place, with principles so closely
assimilating, will thus be obviated. The formalities of the
union will take placo at ton o'clock this morning at City
Rail, which has hem procured to accommodate the groat
numbered persons who will wish to be present. Dr. Rodser'o,
of Allegheny City, will deliver the sermon on the occasion,
and addresses are expected from other members of both
By - nods. The exercises will no doubt be highly Interesting,
and the occasion one that will be long remembered by those
participating in it.
FOSTER'S NAVONAL.—Miss Maggie Mitchell appeared again
last evening as Jessie Brown to a good audience, performing
the character most admirably. This play is n sucrose, earl
we II re glad of it, for the Governor has not been very suc
ceseful, playing too frequently to "a beggarly account of
empty boxes," and it is time that a change should tote
place. The scenic ((Teets of this piece are well conceive.'
and executed with Mr. Foster's proverbial ge od taste. Ail
the characters are well cast, and wo have not semi a piece
.better represented since the opening. To-night, in addition
no this play, which is to be repeated, a very neat little coin' ,
drama called "The Little Devil's Share," in which Miss
'Mitchell sustains the character of Carlo, will be performed,
and we are mistaken if she does not draw a crowded house.
PENNSYLVANIA INSTITUTE FOB. TEE BLIND.—An exhibition
by a number of pupils of the above institution, under the
direction cf Prof. William Chapin, was held last evening at
Lafayette Hall, but owing to the inclemency of the weather
the attendance wen quite limited. The exhibition will be
repeated this evening, when we hope the audierted, will be
larger. The exercises consist of vocal and instrumental
reading from raised letters, exercises on the globe,
mathematical exercises, Ac. We have no doubt the exhibi
tion will be interesting, showing the perfection to which tbe
education of these unfortnutites can be brought.
Pee OYEELA TROUPE AT TEM TULATRE.—The minstrels, per.
forming et the old Theatre, aro still drawing fine house:',
though the disagreeable weather of Monday and Tuesday
evenings, rather dampened the ardor of the amusement
loving portion of the community. To-night they HD uoucce
a new programme, introducing several novelties, among
which are the 'Little Darkles' Holiday," in which little
Tommy will play a banjo solo and sing " Bob Ridley," a bew
farce by Lon Morris entitled Snob and Dusty Bob," the
burlesque Shakers, and a grand challenge dance, in which
Johnny Pell, Dick Sifter, and Lon and Billy Morrie wil
participate. This programme should certainly fill the houFe

IT is a fact worthy the notice of all who buy clothing

now famishing a fashionable garment of superior quality

well to give him is trial.

Sr. Loris, May 25.—The Republican learns that
Montgomery's band of robbers, in Kansas, have in
contemplation the robbery of the Indian Agent, Mr.
Timony, woo is about distributing annuities to the
amount of forty thousand dollars among the Sao

trating on Orange River, about six miles from the
Sac-Fox Agency. Mr. Timony has asked fur a mil

Kansas City to the Agency, and to protect all parties
during the distribution of tho money.
The officers of the st , iatner Polar Star report that
a strong force had surprised Montgomery's band

[From the New York Herald of Mouday.l
More British Outrages.
The Ship Clarendon Boarded at Sagua Gra..de
—Spirited Conduct of her Captain—The Brr
John Howe Twice Boarded and Searched,
We are informed by Capt. Nichele, of the bal it
John Howe, arrived at this port on Saturdny,
that the ship Clarendon, Capt. Bartlett, having
on board a cargo of sugar, bound for New York,
while lying in the port of Sagua la Grande, w
boarded by a boat from the British war steamer
Buzzard, and the officer in command imrnediaie:y
jumped on board and proceeded to the cabin,
and commanded Capt. B. to hoist his ensign,
which he refused to do, deeming the whole pre
ceediag as an insult. He (the officer) then dyes
mended his papers, when he was told they
at the Consul's, and that if he knew his business
he certainly was aware of that fact. The ofliem
then departed, saying he would report to tno '
commanding officer of the steamer.
Upon the refusal of Capt. B to heist his
sign, several shots (blank cartridges) were fired
by the steamer, in order to intimidate Capt.
Bartlett and compel him to hoist his ensign,
which he did not do. Capt. B. then noticed the. -
they had lowered away two of their large bows,
each containing about 60 men, with any quantity
of small arms, when he (Capt. B.) took his en
sign and laid it on the cabin table. Soon after
the boats arrived alongside, and the commander
of the steamer in person came on board, whe..
Capt. B. received him politely, but proteeted
against the proceedings, and would not allow
any of the men to come ou board, threatening
to shoot the first that attempted it. Capt. B. and
the British commander then proceeded to the :
cabin, when he (the commander of the steamer)
commanded him to hoist his ensign. He replied,
"There it lies on the table, and if your com
mission is worth enough, hoist it yourself." The
British officer, pistol in hand, commenced pacing
the cabin, saying that he would seize the vessel
and take her to the port of New York. to which
Capt. B. replied that was exactly what he wanted
him to do; when, whether by intent or accident,
Capt. B. was struck on the breast by the
hand which held the pistol. Captain Bartlett
then presented his pistol and said—" Sir,
keep your hands off me, or I will shoot
you." The officer replied—" I did not lay
my hands on you," when Capt. B. rejoined—
" You did, sir," The officer inquired if the sugar
on board belonged to Capt. B , when he replied
—" I never owned a hogshead of sugar in my
life." The same question was asked in regard
ta the launches (boats for conveying the sugar
from the shore on board), and the same reply
given. The officer, completely cowed, proceeded
on deck, and after reaching the deck, in a per
feet rage bellowed forth—" Lower away the
gangway ladder," when Capt. B. quietly said --
-Sir, did you order that ladder to be lowered,
or did you request it to be lowerd ?" when the
officer said—" Will you please have it lowered ?"
Capt. B. then gave orders for it to be done, and
the Britisher departed without having accom
plished his purpose.
We also learn from Capt. Nichols, that about
th e i:ith of April, on his passage from Havana
to Sagas la Grande, and when off Anguilla, he
was boarded by a boat from the British war
steamer Buzzard, and the officer in command,
without any ceremony, sprang upon deck and
immediately commenced asking questions—such
as the vessel's name, her commander's, where
she hailed from, where last from, where she
was bound, her owner's name, &c.

The "Gazette" contains an editorial upon the
County Convention soon to be held by the Re
puhi; ins ; regrets that the sheriffality has

~, a rale County Conventions were not called
for Congressional nominations; intimates that
either Loomis, Negley, Moorhead or Johnson,

most like."
The - Journal" leader is severely terrific upon
egislative bribery and boring—and says : "We
think all good citizens should at once say to
County Conventions that the nomination of
a professional Borer, or suspected Legislator
absolves each one of us from all obligations
to vote for him. We had better even do oc
casional injustice to the individual, than en
danger the very existence of our institutions
by the election of corrupt Legislators. If you
expect our support of your nominees, you
give us men whose integrity is not only

L.KTTER FSiOM PHELAEOEILPHI
LA DEL MIA, MAY 21,
DEAR Pont :=This city of Brotherly Love
is "a great institution." Great to see the
sights, from the Confidence Man who shows
you the little joker, to the Girard College edi
lice or the City Passenger Railways that are
expected soon to traverse not only all the
principal streets and highways, but also ma
ny of the alleys and byways. It has its
humbugs, ton, which it may be well to point
ut., so that the wayfaring man need not be
taken therein and done for. One of first
doss dimensions is the Arch Street Theatre.
It used to be good, and in bygone days won
an enviable reputation as a temple of the
drama : but success teas been more than it
could bear, and now the auditors are con
demned to listen to very poor playing, in
deed, as well as to submit to all sorts of petty
impositions that are contemptible in any
place. I ;tin requested to say this much by a
large crowd of Pittsburghers, who were vic•
tints of misplaced confidence in the Arch.
The Grand bodge of the Independent Or
der of Odd Fellows held their annual encamp
ment here this week. Nearly five hundred
onemi,ers were present, and everything pass
cd (dr satisfactorily. The Lodge, I ant told,
partook of the general want of confidence,
exhibited for the last six months in the busi
ness world, and v.:is rather short of funds to
pay the no mbers mileage. But this is not
odd, I,l' Stu Uncle Sam is out of cash, and
is already in debt some twenty millions.—
Aiming the representatives from Allegheny
are Messrs. Huey, of McKeesport, Myler,
Myers, Lambert and Rowley, of Pittsburgh,
an l l'aughev, f Manchester. I also learn
from a parit:i7atili in the Press, that Mr, John
S. ILtli, the celebrated plough manufactur
er, is stopping at the Merchants' llotel, where
he will remain for severgl days, but I have
not vet had the pleasure of meeting him. He
has along with hint for inspection, I am told
the models of some surprisingly ingenious
implements for turning a furrow either upon
the hill side or on a Whd level.
The Opera speculatiOn in Philadelphia has
proved a decided failure—Gazzaniga, the new
Academy building, Amodio, Bregnoli, all the
other I and attractions could not save it—
and Mr. E. A. Marshall, having lust some fif
ty thousand dollar , , has announced himself
bankrupt, and quit on Friday night with a
, •emplimentary benefit that nettled him a
couple of thousands. The fault is in the dis
tinguished foreign artistes—the great tenors,
the big bassos and the superb supranos—who
demand treble what they can cam in Paris,
;mil don't sing a bit better!
It is understood here among the knowing,
that Mr. Charles Buckalew has been ap
p,,in:o,i a Minister Resident to utiuuth Amer
ican State with a salary of 7..i7,5i10 per annum
Ile gees te the capital of which is
Quito, a very healthy spot, and therefore very
suitable her Mr. liuckalew, whose physical
condition is miserable, indeed. A new Sen
at,Jr will have to be elected in his district,
making 9 Democrats, and :; Opposition to be
chosen this fall.
On the inst., as you are aware, the
Itemocratie candidate fur Mayor of Philadel:
phia was defeated by five thousand majority,
although f: :r a couple of years past the Democ
racy here had from five to ten thousand ma
jority over the opposition combined. This
disastrous change, I am assured, is to be at
tributed ta the deep disgust in the minds of
the masses for the Lecompton business, and
the pr iscription which has followed in its
train. Instead of having a united democratic
delegation from Philadelphia in the next Gen
eral Assembly, the opposition will have
twelve out of seventeen of the members, even
it it goes no worse than it did three weeks
The truth in this new test of faith has prov
ed most demoralizing upon our party; and in
my opinion the English Compromise is very
nearly as repugnant to the masses as Lecomp
ton pure and simple. Look at the Demoratic
press of the State ! How few of theth put
forward this thing of shreds and patches, as a
great principle to be admired by all true
I )ernocrats. To be sure there are exceptions
-the Philadelphia "Arg,us" and the Chester
county "Jeffersonian," two papers that al
ways opposed Mr. Buchanan until he became

party who dares to think far himself on this
If It• j uesth)n ! Is it not monstrous, that these
cen- istent enemies of Pennsylvania's chiefest
sen—because they advocate the side of John
Calhoun against the people of Kansas—
sloiuld become high priests of the party with
plenary power to excommunicate all the
faithful friends of Mr. Buchanan ? They are
having their revenge, but who would have
thought so in 1856
Here let me mention another fact. The
Doylestown "Democrat" (Berke County) has
changed hands, and is now conducted by
Capt. W. W. H. Davis, a gallant soldier in
the war with Mexico, and an accomplished
writer. Heretofore the paper has been singu
larly silent on the Lecomptou agitation, but
under Capt. Davis it will be earnest in its op
position. Straws, you know, sometimes
show which way the wind blows.
Business is far from having revived, arid

Brigadier General.
An animated co mpetition has already com
menced for the Brigadier Generalship, made
vacant by the lamented death of Gen. Smith,
and before his funeral obsequies have been
celebrated. Gen. Harney, Col. Robert Lee,
Col. Lay—who is only a lieutenant in the line
but an aid to Gen Scott—and others named in
this connection. The beleif obtains that Har
ney will be selected, who sought the appoint
ment when Smith carried off the honors.
