Coming among us unheralded and al most entirely unknown, they have made an impression, real and undoubted. That they were willing to risk their claims to after success, upon their real merit as Artists, rather than upon any extraneous means, is the best evidence of their talent, and the demonstrations on Tuesday night .showed plainly that they were appreciated. The applause was warm and hearty throughout, and we speak the simple truth, when we say we heard hut one expression and that one of entire satisfaction by those pre sent. Mrs. Siioll's voice is a pure Mezzo- Soprano, of the most resonant and sym pathetic quality, a quality whicli ap peals directly to the heart, and grows upon the ear ; while Mr, Vieweg, as a pianist of the highest order, stands with but few rivals. His fingering is clear, distinct, and with an utter disregard of any of the trickery of the instrument, he gives the true sentiment of the music. To meet the exigencies of the times, the price of tickets has been reduced to fifty cents, and we expect to see a full house to-night. Opening of tile Rooms of the Voting Mens’ Christian Association. There was a great crowd at the Rooms of the Association last night, to witness the opening exercises, and hear the ad dress of Bishop Pierce. The efficiency of the committee on seats, was highly appreciated, but it was impossible to provide seats for all, and large numbers were obliged to leave for want of room even to stand within hearing distance. The exercises commenced with an Anthem hy the choir. Mr. Derry, the presiding officer, announced the apolo gy of Rev. Dr. Wilson, for his nt-ceesa ry absence, and Rev. Mr. Lamar read a portion of the Scriptures in a distinct and forcible manner. Rev. Mr. Everson followed in a devout and touching prayer; when the choir sung an Ode composed by a young lady of the city-. And we cordially congratulate the choir, as well as the fair author of the piece, on the excellence of its execution, as well as of the sentiments it so beautifully en forced, The great feature of the exercises of the evening was the address of Bishop Pierce. We have heard but one opin ion expressed by those who heard it; all pronounce it one of the happiest efforts of that good and gifted man. It was characterized by an elegance of diction, loftiness of sentiment, end eloquence of delivery, never excelled, and rarely equalled by public men in any capacity. A Bible was presented in behalf of the young ladies, in a neat address by Rev. Mr. Hard ; and received by Rev. Mr. Carter, iu behalf of the Association. After the Doxology by tbe choir, Rev. Mr. Hard pronounced the Benediction. The auspices under which the Young Men’s Christian Association has been organized, are all of the most promising character, andof thesamebeautiful spirit of Christian fellowship and zeal mani fested in its inception, continue to char acterize its movements, it will not fail' to exert a salutary influence in our com munity. Spring Millinery, • The last few days of delightful weath er has called out the ladies in large numbers', and they may be seen every afternoon looking in at the Spring open ings of our merchants. Almost the first article in the outfit of a lady tor the spring campaign is a bonnet, and the place to obtain them must be an object of interest. Our lady readers may have observed tire neat and attractive announcements that have appeared in our columns from a number of the millenery establishments of the city, to all of which we would call their special attention. To begin down town, Mrs. Pritchard, nearly opposite the Mechanic s Bank, may be found. Further up, adjoining the Georgia Railroad Bank, is the estab lishment of Mrs. Henry. Opposite Ma sonic Hail, Miss Mathews has also an attractive stock. Mrs. V. V. Collins has opened a new store nearly opposite tbe Planters’ Hotel, and a few doors be low the store of Mrs. E. 0. Collins, in the same line. All these stoves are am ply prepared to supply the ladies with all the articles appertaining to millinery, and to make them up in the best style. We believe all, or nearly all of them, employ competent dress-makers, and we are quite sure if the ladies pat ronize any oi them freely, they will have no cause to complain of having “nothing to wear.’’ tVe would iu this connection cal! at tention to the card of Mrs. Moody, who solicits orders in dress-making, cutting, fitting, &c. r Wrn. B. Astor, the largest real estate owner in New York, has adopted the commendable practice of putting in his advertisements of houses to let the price demanded. In England the practice is almost uni versal. It might be adopted in our city to a great advantage, for it would save a world of trouble to property owners and house hunters. Go to Dr. Tctt’s Drug Store and get a glass of Soda Water. -Vot a One Horse Town. The editor of the Cleveland (Tenn.) Manner —not the handsomest of men— is right after the man that called Cleve land a “ one horse place.” He says : It is none of your cross road places, but a railroad city, settled by about 3,- 000 of the cleverest people this side of Halifax—has more go ahead men— more pretty women and fatter babies than any city of its size in East Tennes see, and is cursed probably by two of the ugliest editors this side of Hell’s Half acre. And this is the place that some nincompoop styled a one horse place. Cleveland now has about 25 stores—three flourishing schools—two steam mills—two sert of newspapers, and every other appurtenance pertain , irig to a flourishing city. In a short time it will he tapped by four railroads, one from the north, one from theeastone from the south and one from the west. ; it will lie seen that Cleveland will be a grand converging point for railroads . and will be but a few hours travel from the Atlantic seaboard and Gulf of Mexi co. This is no fancy sketch, but just what will happen in very a short time. W illiam Tell Outdone. A weaver of Spoyor, in Germany, re cently performed an exploit, which casts tlie dexterity of our Travis or Bny dam. completely in the shade. He was the father of a line hoy, au affectionate husband, and known as the best rifle shot in the district ; but let a man be a saint, and chance to excel in some one thing, and he is sure to have enemies without number. One day, while the weaver sat smoking in the bar room of a small inn, some of these mean charac ters approached him, and commenced bantering him upon his accuracy of aim. At first, he treated their remarks as mere jokes ; but their pertinacity at length overcame his good humor, and in a towering passion lie started for home, determined to give undeniable proof of his superiority, or “ perish in i the attempt.” Accordingly he called his little boy, a lad of twelve years old, informed him that he had “ a charmed rifle hall.” and could not fail to strike any mark, at the same time, ordering him to place any ordinary sized potatoe ' upon his iiead, and stand at the a long alley, while he shot it off. The child, fully imbued with the supersti tion inculcated by the stories he had heard, did not hesitate to obey the com mand, and the marksman fired, cutting the vegetable in two pieces, and leav ing him without a scratch. Overjoyed 1 at the success of his experiment, the weaver returned to the inn and related i the exploit; hut the company taunted him to the proof, and professed to be- ' lieve that he was cheating them. Noth ing daunted, he took them to his house and recalling the hoy, made him stand as before. Again the child took his po sition, and it being nearly dark, held a lantern while his father tired the dan gerous sil t. A second time the potato was cloven, while the boy stood un scratched. His envions friends applau ded, of couise ; but the authorities hearing of the matter, caused the weav er to be arrested and brought before ■ them. They severely reprimanded him for the heartless deed, and declared if lie ever renewed tbe experiment, they would shut him up in a madhouse, describes his feelings during the second i essay as exciting and agonizing in the i axtreine; but lie was determined to succeed, even at the risk of killing his child. The famous affair of “the Queen’s diamond necklace,” which made so much noise just before the outbreak of ! tbe great revolution of 1789, is about to ■ come on again beforetbe courtsof Paris — . the heirs and representative of Boelnner and Bossange, the jewellers who sup plied the necklace, having brought an action against the hier and repicsenta tive of Cardinal de Bohan, the Prince de : Bohan, now residing in Bohemia, to ob tain payment for it out of the Cardinal’s : estate. In this action, some of the heirs of other creditors of the Cardinal have intervened, in order to obtain payment of what is due to them. Kxplottion of an Infernal Machine. A diabolical hut fortunately futile at tempt w.is made at Cincinnati, on Fri day morning, about eight o'clock, to murder Pryor P. Lee, engineer of the Cincinnati Type Foundry, in the en gine room of that establishment, on Centre street, west of Vine. An infer nal machine, consisting of a piece of gas pipe seven-eights of an inch in diameter, and nearly eight inches long, welded with wrought iron plugs at ei ther end, and filled with explosive ma terial. was the means by which the hideous crime was sought to be comple ted. The author of this fiendish attempt is unknown, and the superinducing cause is a profound mystery. — Camels. —It is stated that the Govern meut has made a contract with the citizens of Texas for supplying $25,600 worth of camels for use of the army.— Commercial arrangements will be made with some point in Africa, affording the best facilities for purchasing animals . suitable to otir climate and for exporta tion hither. Hew to Toil a Drunken lilfui. If you wish to ascertain whether a man is really in liquor, put the word “municipality” iu his mouth. If he can shell that out, pronounce it plain and distinct, he is sober enough to de liver a temperance lecture, take our word for it. The words National Intel ligencer are even harder to get over, and may be given to any one where the least suspicion is entertained that he is “how come you so.” Answering Letters. There are few things so much neglect ed in the so-called polite world as an swering letters. This arises from an in difference in some people, and a dislike to write iu others. The latter feeling is often so much indulged in, or allowed to influence the possessor to such an ex tent that a letter requiring an answer will be left for days and weeks, a con stant and ever-recurring source of an noyance and reproach, ouaccountof the unpleasant reminding it gives from time to time of the neglect it meets with.— This repugnance to writing might soon he overcome, by observing the follow ing rule: It is simple to answer a let ter at the very first opportunity that 1 offers ; if looked upon as a disagreeable task, the sooner it is got rid of the bet ter ; but its advantage would not rest here, for this practice, if resolutely pur sued, would break down the barrier, ; and the difficulty would vanish. Another Territory.—The legislatures of Michigan and Wisconsin have signi fied their willingness to cede portions of their soil on the North-west for the pur pose of forming a Territory to be called “Ononlagon,” the present Indian title to that soction of country. The negro Anderson, who is to be ex ecuted at Lancaster, Pa., on Friday next, lias expressed great solicitude about the style of his shirt, pantaloons, &c., which he is getting made for the occasion.— He wants the latter “spring bottom.” They are soon to have a decimal cur rency in Canada. The new coins have been struck by the English mint, in one cent, ten cent and twenty cent pieces, and are expected to arrive by the next steamer. The Ice Crop.—lt has been estima ted, says a Boston paper, that double the quantity of ice lias been cut this year than during any former season.— Mr. Wilde, of Medford, has housed 45,- 000 tons at Spot Pond, and other parties have cut 100,000 tons more. »•••* Lawrence,—The stagnation of busi ness and dearth of employment in Law rence, Mass., is greater than any manu facturing town of New England.— Twelve months ago the population was reckoned at 15,000 ; by the first of May it will not exceed 10,000. —Boston Ledger. Trade to New Mexico.—The Fort Smith (Ark.) papers are urging the citi zens to open a trade with New Mexico over the Albuquerque route.
