Bat than is aaotbr sort of consistency which we hav right to olaim of oar public bub bar a right to insist that they shell not be of two mind at ence; that they ibaU not eatortain tw contradictory opin ion at a tine that they (hall no profess one princi ple and act uponaaotber. la the resent annual message of General Taylor he dwell with emphasis on the doty of encouraging domestic Diannfactarea. HU Secretary of the Trea-ary, Mr.

Meredith, has treated us to a new edition of the doctrine of protection the state meat of yes terday's banquet wanned over in which hedemands that for the purpose of forcing the American people to bay of the mill owner in America, new taxes ehall be laid, on imported goods. Thif riew of the natter General Taylor ha adopted and urged in his message. If it be, in General Taylor's opinion, a doty to en courage Ure manufacture established in oar eoantry, we hare a right to expect that he will not wholly neglect that duty himself. If he and his administra tion think that they org at to force other to bay nr. t'clee fabricated in the mill of Lowell and other places within the United States we hare a right to expect that they will not import the same articles tit thsmselre from England.

When the obligation 19 so rery plain, a they pretend, hare a right to ask them to set the example. Judge of our surprise, therefore, when we find there xealesi encouragers of home manafaetore importing their goods from abroad. The book of the Custom House in this city have the following remarkable entry Treasury Dspabtmxht, Nov. 19, 119. Importation per ship Niagara, in September last, nf 4 Wei carpeting, marked r'r-iident's goods, Nos.

The case being as represented, the article were cntUIrd to free entry under the provisions of the act ol 2fuh Jinmuy, 1M9. To supply deficiencies, as article imported for the use of the United States, and yuu are therefore authorised and directed to prepare and it the usual certified statement for the correction of the error and return of the duties so It bappecs rather curiously that tbe importation of these goods" from Europe take place about the lime when General Taylor and Mr.

Mere-d th are meditating what they shall say to Congress, in the message of one and tbe report of the otLer While they are demurely penning a homily on the duty of encouraging home industry, they are sending out for articles woven in tbe loom of England. We hare in this country mill in which carpets oi a rery good quality are fabricated. There was no neessrity of sending to Kidderminster for a web to eorer becomingly the floor of th White House or any other mansion ia which the President may reside. What the real opinion of the administration is concerning the obligation of encouraging home industry, may be eolleoted from the circumstances we have here noted. ASTWKRP AND NEW YORK.

Probably many of onr readers are aware of the fact, that when it was first proposed to establish a line of steamer between this eity, and some northern port in continental Europe, it was a very grare question, hether Antwerp or Bremen should be the terminus of the outward voyage. The latter place was finally elected, and aa imagine, mainly for two reasons. The one was, that it was the great point of German emigration, and the other that Bremen was a republic Probably tbe latter had the greatest influence in determining the action of Congress in it sanction of tbe project, although in fact Bremen has no separate political power wbaterer, and is controlled by the influence of monarchical states. The line of steamer which eommeneed operations under the contract with our Gorernment was accordingly identified with Bremen interests, and though tbe steamers themselves hare not all tbe public wished them to be, they hare been rery successful, and hare realised fur then-owners very large profits. No persona can rejoice at this result more than ourselves, and wo are pleased not only to express our high regard for the honorable managers of the Ocean team narigation company, but to congratulate them ppon their well deserved success.

As friends of the commerce of our conn-try at large, and as more than friends of that of tbe city of Now York, we can not disguise our wishes, that Antwerp, aa well as Bremen, may in some way speedily be connected with us. We understand, that the Belgian Gorernment is exceedingly desirous ol such at connection, and if we are not mistaken, the talented and gentlemanly personage who act as its Consul General in this city, takes a special, if not a delegated interest in the project we allude to. Indeed when we sit down calmly to consider the position, wealth, and commery of Antwerp, we are surprised Jtbat a line of steamers has not before this been at woraT'between that city and New York. Wo confess that have ourselves orerlooked, in this own manifest duty, in not urging npon our fellow-citizens, the feasibility and advantages of the scheme Perhaps as th enterprise of our country was nerer more marked, or prosperous than at tbe present time, we have at leDgth arrived at the auspicious moment, when our recommendation may at least receive a just share of consideration, amid tbe general desire of our citizens, to shore individually in that prosperity. Antwerp is no mean town, politically, geographi cally, aommercially, or historically.

We cannot forget that it once contained 200,000 inhabitants, and its port was raid to have been annually visited by 2000 vessels. Writers of that period speak of its wealth and commerce as boing enormous. Th story of the large lians made by a single merchant to the Emperor Charles V. and the cinnamon fire with whieh he was' warmed while visiting hi creditor, is too well known to be repeated. Two event deeply affected the prosperity of Antwerp.

ytzt first was the capture of the place by th Spaniards in 15S6, when tbe town wo plundered for three successive days, and the inhabitant emigrated in large numbers to Amsterdam, Middle burgh, and other places, to escape the horrors of the Spanish joke. The Dutch, either to deprive the conquerors of its commerce, or to transfer it to their own ports, built forts at the mouth of the Scheld, and obetruot-oi its navigation by sinking in the channel, vessels filled with stones. The city of Antwerp from that tint began to decline, and it suffered still more when, by the peace of Westphalia, in the navigation of the Scheld was closed. Holland be came enriched by tbe misfortunes of the Belgio provinces, and as-turned a corresponding influence on the continent and throughout the world. in 1792 tbe French took possession of Antwerp, and hewever we may refuse our approbation of their spirit of eonquost, we cannot but acknowledge that their victories were not alway profitless to the conquered.

The navigation of th Scheld was re-opened, and, during th sway of Napoleon, the most magni-fioent improvements were designed and carried forward, by whieh it harbor and pert were enlarged, It quays were renewed and rebuilt, new and spacious docks constructed, and commercial advantages sees rod of tho very highest kind. These have been generally preserved through all the changes from that period to the present, although both England and Holland, on at loast two occasions, have not failed to make every effort to impair tbem. But as civilisation and progress and commercial power work their way against all temporary obstruc tions, so Antwerp, under the sway of a liberal and constitutional monarch, the choice of the Belgian revolutionists, has began to retrace her steps to wealth and importance. No city in the north of Europe now presents greater facilities for trade, and very few indeed present to many. It still possesses the hat harbor on th North Sea, and it ha the very oisiest access for vessels of the largest size, into the heart of the city itself.

For two miles, in front of the town, then is at tbe lowest tides thirty-two feet depth of stater-: The tides, themselves, rise from twelve to eighteen feet, and the port is but forty-five xnilcs from the sea. It 1 nearer to Pari or London than Amsterdam or Bremen, by many mile. A steamer can go to London from Antwerp in twenty two hours, while from Amsterdam it takes fifty-six boors to perform the passage, and from Bremen two days and a half, and oftener more than this. Its population is now about eighty thousand thir ty thousand more than that of Bremen and its com merce is far greater. About two thousand yearly arrivals and departures of vessels cow take place at Antwern.

Its imports are twenty-two millions of dollars annually, and its exports about five millions. This difference is owing to it having a large interior and transit trade. It receives coffee, (agar, cotton st-ffs, leather, timber, tobacco, la Urge quantities stad law rata of dnty, wool, dy stuffs, salt. no kid fruits and it give back flax, cotton and luaen ma.qfaetares, glass, sine, seeds, grain, It is coikfej by rivers, canals and railroads, the of the continent, and enjoys their not oniyv. mMSJ of naiare and art.

of undisputed accuracy. It sufficient for our wesent purpose to Btotetne facta, without descending to th mirrotenee of th table bar examined, in order to verify oat opinion. Our object merely to can attention of ear merehant and capitalists to the importance of baring some kind of communication by (team with the great city of Antwerp as soon a possible and if we cannot get opaline of steamer between the two porta, wo may at least hold oat son indneoment either to th Belgian Gorernment or the merehant of Antwerp to establish aa auxiliary lino of their own. to connect with that wkiek is shortly to DO In operation between New York and Liverpool. Th Canards hare a steamer running between Ltv- erpool and Harre, in order to secure oar most valu able freight for themselves.

Why should not the Collins line, or the Fox Li rings ten lino, hare a similar connection with aa Antwerp Una It would certainly pro re highly profitable bat, above all, it would hare a most important and beneficial influence on the trowing trad between Belgium and the United State. Keicttckt asd th Union of to Stat. Gov- Crittenden, in his meant annual aieaaage to the Legislator of Kentucky, ha expressed himself on the subject of th Union of th states, and th part which Kentucky is ready to take if a plot tor over- tw tnld ka aeriouelv afitated, ia soon a manner that we should bo unfaithful to onr vocation a jour nalist if we wero not to ly an word before our readers. There is no doubt that th views expressed by Gov ernor Crittenden are entertained not only by tho ma jority of th people of Kentncky, but by larg por tions of the population in those of the southern state in which the bigotry of the slave interest is most in. tolerant.

He says -1 can entertain no annrehension for the fata tS such a union. 1 he approach of any daneer to it would be tbe signal for rallying to its defence the first moment of its peril would be the moment of its rescue. I persuade myself that there will be found in Congress, on the exciting subject which has given rise to the late agitation and alarm, wice forbearance and a wis patience that will secure ns from danger and that tne very men who, in tbe neat and contention of de-bat, have spoken most boldly tbe langa of defi ance and menace to the cnion, will not be hindmost in making sacrifices for its preservation. "The Union has further security in the parental care and guardianship of its present illustrious Chief Magistrate and, far above all other securities, it has the alUpowerful public opinion and affections of the people. To Kentncky and the other westarn states in the valley of the Mississippi, the Union is dispensable to heir commercial interests.

They ooeupy the most fertile region of the world, eloquently described by a celebrated foreigner as the most magnificent abode that the Almighty ever prepared as a dwelling place for These states, already populous and productive, are rapidly increasing, and in no long time mast become the most populous and productive portion of the United States. They are remote from tbe ca and to enable them, wit'a any advantage, to dispose of their boundless productions and parchase their supplies, they will require the use of all tbe channels and avenues of commerce, and of all th markets, ports, and harbor from Boston to new Orleans. Under our present Union we enjoy all these facilities, with the further advantage of a maritime force eapable to protect and actually protecting our commerce in every part of the world. Disunion would deprive ns, certainly, to ome extent, and mst probably, to a great extent, of those advantages and of that protection. I cannot enlarge on the subject.

A moment's reflection will show the ruinous consequence of disunion to the commerce of Kentucky and the other western states. The most obvious considerations of interest combine, therefore, with all that are more nobler and more generous to make the Union not only on object of attachment but of necessity to us. Kentucky is not insensible to the causes which have produced so much sensibility and irritation with tor brethren of the southern states, nor is she without her sympathies wilh them. But she does not permit herself to harbor one thonght against tbe Union. She deprecates disunion as the greatest calamity she can see no remedy in it none; certainly, for any grievance as yet complained of or to be apprehended." The following article appears in the Courier of this morning.

The arrangement with tbe Common Conned to which it alludes, ia a most expensive one tbe Evening Post. The allowance of $500 a year does not pay us for tbe setting of tbe types in which tbe proceedings and documents of the Common Council are printed. We have been twenty times on the point of renouncing tbe arrangement altogether Tbe public is equally aware that the Common Council direct the publication of City Advertisements and their own proceedings, in certain newspapers that twe newspapers, tbe Commercial Advtrtiter and the Evening Pott were selected last year, each of which was to receive (500 for the service. This was all well enough. But learn that after this arrangement had been made, a joint Committee of the two Boards adopted a resolution, addressed to the Heads of Departments and of Bureaus of the City Government, directing them to publish all public notices of the Corporation and tbe Department thereof, as well as the otfioial proceedings of each Board of the Common Council, in the New York Exprttt at its customary advertising rata.

And this requisition of the Committee has been compiled with by tbe officers of tbe City Government upon whom it was made from the first of June lost or thereabouts. Now we have no special objection the selection of the Expres as the medium of any advertising which the eity government finds it necessary to make. But it must be observed that while tbe public supposes the advertising of the city government to be procured in the Commercial and the Pott at the very moderate rate of $500 each per annum, at least ten timet that turn is paid to the Exprttt for doing precisely the same work and that not by a law publicly made and generally known, but at the secret direction of a committee, acting without any specific instructions, but simplyj seeking to carry out some object which they hare been induced to deem desirable. We should like to know whether the new Common Council intends to pursue the same system. Are certain papers still to be employed at low prices, for the sake of enabling a committee to pay large sums ofthepublio money to anotittt paper, without the knowledge of tne people at large is one ot the many secret end utterly unjustifiable ways in which the money of the public is squandered for the benefit of individuals.

The new Council should understand that they or expected to apply to all these abuses, very prompt and eflctive measures of reform. For our own part we shall insist npon the curtailment of these needless and corrupt expenditures, we care not by what party they may be countenanced. It ia idle to be stunning the public ear with complaints of excessive taxation, or nnjust assessments, when the men who make the most noise have their hands the deepest in tbe City Ireasury, for their own emolument. The publio is not to be taxed simply fill their pockets." A Now York correspondent of th London Daily News, who is generally quite well informed in mat ters relating to American politics, has the following rather remarkable statement, in a letter dated Nor. 28th: "With regard to oar diplomacy, I hare recently learned, from a most unquestionable source, that most of the apparent mistakes of Mr.

Clayton are not bis own, but nave been made by uen. 1 ay tor himself The Poussin affair would not bare token the torn it did but for hi interference. The conduct of Mr. Squiers at Nicaragua is also said to be far in advance of the instructions of Mr. Clayton, and General Tay lor will bare to taxe tbe responsibility ot this also.

Nay, more, about a month since Mr. Clayton was to vexed at the equivocal position he occupied, in con sequence of being held responsible for acts of his de partment, wmcn are against bis wishes, that he actu ally threw np his commission, and departed for his home in Deleware, and he would not return until Maior Bliss, the president son-in-law. had been sent twioe to call him back.

Geddes's resolutions on th same subject, in the Senate, make four let of instruc tions before the legislature. It is perhaps it is in tended to bs, tbe embarrassment of rich and that of all these prolific beginnings none will ripen into any useful shape. Th most remarkable incident of the session, was tbe reception of a communication from th Comp troller. The report of that officer was to-day laid before the legislature, dated Jan. 2d.

It was a message of congratulation, laudation and glorification. The sources of revenue were all flourishing. Th fu ture most auspicious. Taxation, according to th Comptroller, was soon to cease, and the only diffi culty of legislators would be to find object of expenditure This vision of the Comptroller seems to have lasted only five days. Speaking of the loans to Railroad Companies, the Comptroller said The amount of these loans.

Including $70,000. issued to th Tioga Coal and Iron Mining and Mana- lactunng iompany, a It affords the Comptroller suits pleature to ttate that the interest on the stock continues to be paid with commendable punctuality, fry the respective companies for whose benefit it was treated. The annual contri bution to the sinking fund, for tbe final payment of principal, whieh was payable on th first day of January last, by the Hudson and Berkshire Railroad Company, has not yet been paid.

Fire day afterwards, he is compelled to make the avowal, that hisTcaloulations hare failed, and that an unexpected liability of $150,000 is thrown npon the state. The following is the report in full. It is a history which shows a purpose, in advance, to shuffle off the loan of the state, and to avoid the payment of th debt, whieh it surprises me that Mr. Hunt, who has had many dealing with speculation, should not hare his eyes open to.

Jan. 7. 1850. To the Legislature It becomes tbe duty of tbe Comptroller to inform road Company bave failed to provide for the interest payable on toe ist instant, on tne stock of the state, mounting to siau.uuu, wmcn wa loaned to said com pany in puiiaanoe of chapter 178 of th law of 1840. A letter was receired from tha President of th Company, on the 1st (a oopy of which is hereto annexed,) stating tbe inability of the company to pay tne interest ana tne amount requirea lor tnat purpose, being $4,125, has been advanced (rem th treasury.

It appears tnat tbe anairs of tbe Corporation bare been in a state oi embarrassment for some year past. Tbe original act required the eempany to contribute A 1 M.I tll two per cent, ud tue amount oi toe loan, or annually, to lorm a sinaing luna lor tne redemption of the stock. Tbe payment was regularly made for ve years, when the legislature, by an act passed May 13, 181b1, authorized tbe company to withhold the instalments due the sinklag fond in the years 184S, 1847 and 1848, on condition that the entire receipts of the road, after paying interest and expenses, should be appropriated to making repairs and improvements. Notwithstanding the postponement of the payment to the sinking fund, the oompany tailed to pay interest on toe stock, on the 1st of January and 1st of July, 1847. A proceeding was thereupon commenced in pursuance of law for the sale ot tbe railroad; out it was a tier war as discontm ued, npon an arrangement by whicTi the company made provision to meet tho accruing interest.

The legislature at the same time adopted another measure which it was hoped would make the com pany give new value to tbe road and create suoh an incicase of profits as to ensure payment of the inter est on the state loan. The act of December 14, 1847, uthorized them, after ealline- in 50.000 of addi tional capital from the stockholders, to borrow to be expended in relaying tbe superstructure with a heavy iron tail, and the Comptroller was required, on reeeiring proof of the expenditure, to countersign the bonds for this new loan, whieh bonds by the tern of tbe law, "thereupon immediately became a mortgage lien upon said road and it appurtenance, and shall have priority of lien over the mortgage to the people of the state." Th company proceeded, in compliance with the provisions of this act, to call in 50.000 from the shareholders, and to borrow $175,000 by an issue of bonds wmcn were countersigned by tbe comptroller. The money was expended in the re-construction of tho road, with a heavy rail, and it is understood that tbo structure is ot a most durable and substantial character. But this improvement of the track, while it involved the company in augmented liabilities, failed to bring the anticipated increase of business, and it would seem that the stockholder have abandoned all hope of paying the debt, and preserving the capital invested. After coming into office, in February lost, the Comptroller deemed it bis duty to re quire tne paj ment oi tne instalment due to the sink ing tuna on tne brst or January last, and of the amount advanced from that fund in 1847, for, interest on the original loan.

we accordingly addressed tbe company, calling for a discharge of these obligations. A correspondence ensued, frem which an expectation was indulged, that tbe company migbt soon succeed in providing the means to protect the state and comply with the requirements of the law. That hope had not been relinquished at the date of the annual report from this office. It is a subject of sincere regret to the Comptroller, that the anticipations of the oompany, in tnis respect, nave not been realized, lie nnds no reason to doubt tbat the stockholders bave acted in good faith, and have made an earnest effort to give success to an enterprise in which they embarked their means, from a laudable bat misdirected public spirit ne act ot 1S4. was an unfortunate step, as well for tbe state as the shareholder, not to speak of the apparent inconsistency with the 4th section of Article 7- of the Constitution.

Tbe effect has been to involve the shareholders in a further loss of 50,000, and to create a new debt of $175,000 having priority over tbe state lien. Under such circum stances, it is to be feared that a large part of the claim ol tbe state will oe lost. The account between the treasury and the company stands as follows Loan of Stock in 1340, bearing interest at oi nor cent $150,000 00 Deduct balance of Sinking Fund, in the ireasury alter retaining interest ad vanced therefrom 8706 11 Balance $141,293 89 So much of this amount as shall remain, after an- pl.icg the proreods of the road when sold, mast be added to the General Fund Debt, and tha interest thereupon will be chargeable to the General rand Debt Sinking Fund. Prompt measures will be taken bv the Comptroller. for the sale of the railroad and its appurtenances, in tne manner directed oy law.

unless tn legislature upon investigation of the condition aad prospects of the cempany, shall deem it expedient to authorise a lortner extension ot time. Washington Huht, Comptroller (COPT or LETTEB.) Hcdso.n am Beskshibk R. R. Office, i Hudson. Dec.

A call of three dollars per share on the stock had been made, when your letter was received, payable on the 20th instant. The eall has not been paid by tne stockholders, and 1 do not think the company can pay the interest due the state the 1st of January. This is a matter of deep regret and disappointment to the directors, and they have made every effort to avoid such a result. When the act of December. 1347, pasted, authorising the relaying of the road, by the issue of bonds, the oompany had very reason to believe, that before this time the Hudson River Railroad would bo opened at least to this city, and that the contemplated iron works would be ia full operation.

In these reasonable expectation they hare been disappointed, and the call upon the stockholder wa the but resort. This has also failed, and they feel obliged to giro np the straggle, unless the legislature shall deem it best to give fur- C. MURDOCH, President.

It make no difference whether th freemen dasire any amendment of the constitution or not, the form must be gone through of electing eentors. conventions have been held under this provision, which rejected all the amendment proposed, and thus was the state saddled with a useless bill of xpenso. Psnnrylvania, oon abolished this mod of procedure, and tbere is nothing similar to it any otaer atate bat tbe people or Vermont ellng with (Treat tenacity to all th ancient forms of government.

Th amendment giving th election of eounty officers to the people, will doubtless be adopted. Do yon know that nothing but grasping and unjust legislation, prevented this state from becoming a part of the state of New York 1 Sack 1 believe is th toot. New Hampshire nrriginaUy claim tho territory forming now th largest portion of thi state, and iud grant to larg number of settlers, on both ides of the mountains. Afterward, New York asserted a claim to the same territory, and after con siderable controversy, New Hampshire yielded th point, ana acquiecu in ui ciauiu oi isw xora. The settlers had taken no part in the controversy.

and wer indifferent between tbe parties; bat assooa as New York eame into possession, she very unwisely annulled all the grant of land made by New Haarn- hire, and required th settlers to purchase and pay for their lands anew. This unjust demand roased the indignation of the Green Mountain boys, who refused to comply with it, or to quit their farms, and when New York proceeded to make new grants, and under took, through ejectment in her courts, to dispossess the occupants, the settlers stood oat in open rebellion. With Col. Seta Warner at their head they prepared to resist th proeea of law, by foroe. and did it suc cessfully.

It resulted ia Vermont obtaining for herself aa independent sovereignty, and proved the truth of the adage, that Honesty is th best policy." UtUiVII. Nkwbusoh Branch Raiuuj Cxlebbatioh. The celebration of th opening of the Newbargh Branch Railroad to Chester, intersecting the Erie Railroad, took place at Newbargh Notwithstanding the gloomy appearance of the weather in the morning, in the course of the day it proved more favorable for the event than eoold bare been anticipated. A special train left Piermont yesterday morning, taking the invited guest from thi city, among whom wero the vice President and Directors of th New York and Erie Railroad a respectable representa tion of the Director of the Hartford and Providence Railroad and of the Ramapo and Paterion road also, numerous oitizens interested in these enterprises. They were met at the point of intersection of the branch by a deputation of the citizens of Newburgh, and wer accompanied over the rood to that village.

All along the route tbey were saluted with eheer and the firing of gun, and on their arrival at Newburgh were welcomed at th depot, and introduced to the citizens by Frederick J. in a brief speech, to whieh Mr. D. E. Dodge, the Vice President of th New York and Erie Railroad, replied, in th absence of Mr.

Loder, who was too ill to be present. Newburgh ha always been proverbial for it hospi tality, and on this occasion it did itself full justice. The Depot, which ii one of the largest buildings of th kind in th atate, contained table furnished on the most liberal scale. JL- wkala fix, weighing 1000 a whole bog, three or four sheep, a deer, and al most every kind of animal food had been Th building and th grounds around and in tbe vioinity, were filled with people who had come in from the neighboring country to witness th ceremonies and partake of the good things. After the introductions hod been concluded, the In vited guests were conducted to tbe United States Hotel, by J.

J. White, where a dinner. bod been prepared, to which all did ample justioe and testified their appreciation of th good taste of the host who had charge of that department of the entertainment. When hunger had been satisfied and the win brought on, the regular toast were read by tbe President, Mr. Betts.

Tbe first regular toast, which wa', The President and Director of the New York and Erie Railroad, was responded to by Mr. Knapp, in a brief speech, which he concluded by offering the following The citizens of Newbargh and its branob: Thy hav indubitably proved themMlve tb great ftedtrt ot nvw sa naiiroao. The second regular toat was, The President and Director of the Hartford, Providence and Fishkill Railroad, which was responded to by Mr. Smith, of Hartford, one of th Director of that road. Our space to-daywlll not admit the publication of even an abstract of the speech of Mr.

Smith, of Hartford, as we had intended. The completion of thi work ia da in no small de gree to the efficiency and energy of Homer Ramsdell, of Newbargh, one of the Directors of the New York and Erie Railroad. Tas Dramatic Fund Fistival. Lost evening the Italian Opera House was opened on the occasion of the second annual festival of the Dramatic Fund Association. It wa densely crowded in every part with a brilliant and fashionable audience.

The per formances were Shakspeare's comedy of "A You Lik It," in which tha chief parts were taken by Mis Cuahman, Mrs, Abbott, Burton, Chippendale, Hamb- lin, Lynne, Hind, and which, of eours, wer well performed. It is rarely that wo find a play pnt npon the stage with such complete perfection in all the details of distribution and arrangement. The various performers were repeatedly and rapturously applauded. After the play, the Italian Opera Company gave the second act of that charming little opera, L'Ell-sire D'Amore, in which Signora Borghese, and Sig-nor Guidi, Sanquirico, and Rosso-Corsi, acted and snng in their best manner. Borghese was full of vivacity and grace, as Adino Sanquirico very droll as Dulcamara, and Guidi in his finest voice.

Their effort wer enthusiastically received. Max Maretzek and the other manager deserve great credit for their liberal contributions to th vj ning's entertainment. AexivaL of Packet Ships.
