Captain Fillette, of the schooner Amphitrite, which arrived last evening, from Havana, on 13th inst., reports that three Mexican Commissioners ar rived in that city, on the British mail steamer from Vera Cruz, on the 9th, and left the next day for Ja maica, to communicate with Santa Anna, and in duce him to return to place himself at the head of affairs. These Commissioners are deputed by the revolu tionary party, which by our last accounts was uni versally successful, every slate but three being un dertheir control. When we last heard fjom Santa Anna, a few weeks since, by way of Panama, he was still at Carthagana. The Panama papers, however, men tioned'a report that hejwas about to embark from Car thagena, contemplating a return to his native land, to avail himself of the general dissatisfaction with Arista’s administration. It is probable that the ex ile removed to Jamaica to be in closer and more reg ular communication with his friends, and as Vera Cruz is in possession of his party, we may expect to hear before many days of his landing there, and sue. cessful entry into the capital. Mr. Hargous also arrived at Havana from Vera Cruz, on the steamer. He is said to be on his way to tins city. The brig Adims Gray, left Havana, for this port, on site morning of the 13th.

Fire—Destruction of Property. — New York, Jan. 20.—A large quantity of goods belonging to Warwick Clyde Print works was destroyed by fire on Tuesday. May a Gentleman wear a Frock-coat at an Evening Party? —The N. Y. Home Journal , in a recent article upon changes in fashions, says: “The disputed question—May a gentleman wear a frock-coat at an evening party ! seems to have been decided in the affirmative; and, accordingly, young gentlemen take particular pleasure in wearing that long, obnoxious gar ment, with the additional innovation of black neckerchiefs. White waistcoats are generally discarded, and white kids yield precedence to gloves of color.” Repudiation in Europe. —The Queen of Portu gal has recently issued a decree virtually repudia ting the financial obligations of her Government.— By this decree all the five per cent, and four per cent, stock of that kingdom is converted at a blow, without compensation, into three per cents. That a few new States in a Republican Confederacy should dishonor their obligations has furnished a fruitful theme for vituperative and indiscriminating abuse against this country, as if a natural result of republican institutions. We have no excuses for the dishonor that attaches to these Stales ; but, at the same time, are curious to see what excuses for regal repudiation will be found by those so prompt to find in it an argument against free institutions. This blow will fall heavily upon the English stock holders, who hold no less than fifty millions of dol lars in these repudiated stocks, or more than half of the public debt of Portugal. —Boston Atlas.

THE INFANT DRUMMER, OF MACON. GA. NOTICES OF'THE PRESS. The Infant Drummer— ls a prodigy beyond a shad ow of a doubt. On Saturday evening, at St. Andrew’s Ilall, we could imagine that Old “Dominie Sampson ,” could he have stepped out from the “wizard’s page” which records his history, into the form and perception of a living man, would have articulated “pro-di-gious!” with an energy and frequency that would have taxed his antiquated jaws to the utmost of their power. In truth, the child's every performance is prodigious ; in the geni us exhibited by this mere baby, just from his mother’s arms, in his perfect oommand of time; his kindling en thusiasm under the inspiration of music ; in the torrents of sounds, (and sound that is ever melodious) which are drawn from the drum by his tiny arms. We are com pletely at fault ; we do not understand it; we can not de scribe it ; we could not have believed it had we not seen it. The ehiM is a wonder ! He is something more—he is a study for the mental philosopher. Reader, if you are desirous, once in your life, to behold an unquestionable prodigy, go and see the Infant three year old Drummer. Savannah Georgian. The Infant Drummer. —We have seldom been more agreeably entertained, or more profoundly astonished, than we were last evening at St. Andrew’s Hall. It is a sight unique, curious, and in a high degree pleasing, to see a wee bit ofa boy, with arms scarcely bigger than the drum sticks he wields with such consummate skill, —life, energy, and spirit in every motion, dignity in every step, martial bearing in his air, and the tire of enthusiasm and intelligence beaming in his eye and kindling o’er his face, marching with measured :tep to his own melody, and scattering around him like radiant beams, the finest and most brilliant tones of fiis instrument—the man who can look upon it, and feel no pleasurable emotion, hath forgotten that he ever was a child! They name him rightly when they call him a prodigy— the Drummer is truly a wonderful little creature, and to have seen and to have heard him will be a pleasing thought for many a day to come. —Savannah Republican. A Card to the Public. The Manager of the Concerts given by the Infant Drum mer with the view of giving a series of Musical Entertain ments, in the principal cities of the South, including the child’s native State, would most respectfully call the atten tion of the citizens of this place, and the public generally, to a few considerations in relation to this gifted, renowned and truly illustrious child,who has won for himself, during the last twelve or fifteen months, by the exhibition of his unac countable innate and precocious genius, as more particular ly developed by his extraordinary, astounding and uncon ceivable feats of skill on the drum, a celebrity unparalleled in the history of the world, in the biographies of the most distinguished personages of this or any other age, or even in the wild and imaginative theories of ancient Mythology. The Infant Drummer has iust returned from an almost unprccented successful tour through the Eastern, Northern and Western States, including Canada, where he has been the subject of more laudation, and complimentary notice, from the press and the masses “generally, than any artistic performer that has ever appeared upon the stage of this, or any other country not excepting Jenny Lind. And the encomiums and high-wrought eulogies which he has re ceived, and is still receiving, is amply corroborated by the unsolicited testimony, and unqualified approbation of the most distinguished musical critics, and by cards, letters, and speeches from various eminent personages, including the Governors of the States and Mayors of cities, through which he has passed : and others, among whom may be mention ed the late Hon. Henry Clay—all, with unanimity and en thusiasm, acknowledged their surprise and admiration, and all of which is endorsed aud confirmed by the respectable and crowded audiences, and the plaudits and huzzas of the hundreds and thousands that have greeted him wherever he has performed,—on his appearance at Charleston, being hi? first appearance at the South. Mayor Hutchison called upon the manager, inviting the Infant Drummer to give a private entertainment at his own residence, at which his Honor presented the child with a handsome sum of money, accompanied by a note expressing his astonishment and appreciation. It would be too tedious to enumerate and particularize all the marks of approbation which were extended to him by the citizens of Charleston alone. By way of ex pressing the obligations we owe to the citizens of that place in behalf of the Infant Drummer, the following marks of their esteem are enumerated : A full Uniform, presented to him by the Cadets of the So. Ca. Military Institute ; a Silver Goblet and Salver, presented by the Washington Light Infantry, with an appropriate inscription ; a unique and tasty uniform presented the Vigilant Fire Company; a beautiful Silver Knife and Fork, presented by Capt. Berry, of the steamer “Marionand a massive Silver h ire Horn, by the German Fire Company, including many neat and valuable presents made by private individuals, accompanied by commendato ry notes of appreciation. It might not be out of place here to mention, that while performing at Columbia (S. C.) his Excellency Gov. Man ning, entered the Concert Room, just as the child was com mencing, when he instantly struck up and rattled ofF“Hail to the Chief,” with fine effect. After the performance, the Governor addressed the child in some very complimentary remarks, and presented him with a handsome, sum of money. On his first appearance in his native State at Augusta, the citizens of the place fully proved by their raptuous applause and distinct marks of approbation, that he was an exception to the general rule, that a “prophet is not without honor save in his own country,” and notwithstanding the weather was very unfavorable, his Coccerts were densely crowded, and included the first families in the place. Among other evidences of their appreciation, the Clinch Rifles voted him a full Uniform which was worn by the Infant Drummer, at his fburta Concert in that place/they voted him an Honorary Member of their Company, and presented with handsome embossed cards including a Certi tificate, of his Membership aud a testimony of their appre ciation of his extraordinary merits. Among the many rich and valuable presents made to this child at the North, are four Uniforms, presented by the Mili tary of New Y ork and Philadelphia. Major Dutton, of the United States Army, a veteran of the last war, has also pre sented him with a Brass Drum, a valuable relic of that war which he used during the exciting scenes of 1814, on which he performs in connection with the one presented by the Brooklyn Brass Band. To say that this child is a good drummer, and that he beats the drum with the skill ayd precision that is astonish ing, or that he is ji perfect drummer and cannot be excelled, all this language is tame and trite when compared with the expression of the feelings experienced while listening to the perfect concord and witnessing the energy and skilf ul move ments of this Infantile Genius in the Concert Room. His performance must be seen to be appreciated, as it is univer sally acknowledge by all who have heard him, that no lan guage can be employed emphatic enough to express or con vey an accurate idea of the pleasure and deeply interesting sensation elicited by this “neplus ultra” of Nature’s Won ders. The South, and Georgia more particularly,will, un doubtedly, proudly proclaim him her pride arid glory. W. J. DEMUREST, Manager.

In Gravel, Gout and Rheumatism ; in obstructions o the Bladder and Kidneys its effects arc prompt, decid ed and invariably reliable.

The Aromatic Schiedam Schnappsisan absolute corrective of all these injurious properties of bid water, and consequently prevents’ the diseases which they occasion. It is also found to be a cure and preventive of Fever and Ague, a complaint caused by the conjoint eflects or vegetable malaria in the atmos phere. and vegetable putrescences in the waters u those districts in which it principally prevails. The Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps is consequently in great demand by persons travelling, or about to settle in those parts of the country, especially ; as well as by many in every community where it has become known on ac count of its various other remedial properties. In all cases of a dropsical tendency, it is Tenerally the only remedy required, when adopted in the early stages of the disease.

In our last number we accompanied the publication ol a circular on this subject, Irom our lellow citizen Udolphe Wolfe, Esq., with a brief commentary, expres sive of our own views. Since then we have been em ploying this agent, and thus tar with favorable results. But we arc m receipt of several communications on the subject Irom medical men, which serve to show that Mr Wolfe’s Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps is very ex tensively in use, and in the hands of physicians, is proving itself as a stimulating diuretic to be eminently successful alter other medication with this intent had been tried in vain. la one of the cases thus reported abdominal dropsy has been cured, and the necessity of upping averted ; and in another disliessing case” of gravel, so called, has been entirely removed by the passage ofa calculus of'considerable size, which is as cribed to the use of only two bottles of this article. We know not the object of Mr W’olfo in designating his preparation by the singularly uncuphonious name of “Schnapps,” rior of hia denominating it in his ad vertisements, the ‘ concentrated Tincture of Juniper ’ instead of perpetuating its ancient title of Holland Gin. It is true that he admits it to be norfiing else than the latter article in its pure state, unadulterated by noxious drugs, and hence he contradistinguishes it Irom Gin of commerce, nearly all of-which, as is well known, is manufactured here and elsewhere from inferior whiskev and refuse drugs. The name he has given it, however, may serve the purpose . (designating his article, as pre pared exclusively for medical purposes, and thus com mend it to physicians lor whose convenience it is on sale only by reputable druggists and apothecaries. As respects its medicinal and curative effects, we un derstand him to claim only that it is a pure and reliable article ol Holland Gin , and as such worthy of the con fidence of physicians, inthose diseases far” which thev are wont to prescribe it.and’have hitherto only been restrained, by finding it impracticable to obtain the ar ticle in a pure state. Nor skouK. any prejudice against alcoholic medicine deprive the afflicted u! the benefit o this article, which from time immemorial has held its place among the remedial agencies of the Materia Med ina, if it be found worthy ofconfidcnce by continued ex perience. At all events, those wtio persist m the cm‘ ployment and toleration oi'other alcoholic mediemes as tinctnres, bitters, d-c., and especially those who pre scribeCin under any circumstances, must all unite in giving the preference to a pure article over the manifoUJ” adulterations so rife in the market. ATr Wolfe liberal-, ly supplies physicians with a sample bottle for analysis, and trial,as set forth in his circular, and slakes theff reputation of the remedy upon the innocence, safety, and efficiency of his Holland Gin, when used under medical advice ; and pledges his own caaracterin busi siness that the article ill not disappon: any wbo use it New York Medical Gazette, Nov 2—43w30i
