Prosident Orton, of the Western Union Tele- greph Company, has beon before tho Senate Post-Office Committes arguing against the postal telograph schome with his usual vigor, Mr, Hubbard's bill ko objects to a8 being uncon- atitutional and impolitie. It would violate the contract botweon tho Govornment and the com- panies, and would mako the Government boar & part of the oxpense of the new telograph, while all the profita went to privato partics. Prosident Orton proves, by official figures, that telegraphy is cheapor in this country than in Europe, and is managed without cost to the Government, which bas not been the caso when it has been assumed by foreign Govornmonts, RS S Lord Ohief-Juntico Cookburn, who made a spoatnolo of himself at Gouova, sud will also b romombored for his arbitrary ordor to the Tich- lorne clsimant to stop his appesle to the publlc for ald, hos juet sont AMr, Whalloy, M, P, to prison.

Mr. Morton Ied the movemont to oxpel Caldwell for bribery, and eventually forced that individual to resign. The chargos against Pinchback and tho evidence to sustain them are said to be more conclusive than in tho case of Catdwell. To admit Pinchback under thoso circumstances i8 to make the present usurpation in Louisiana more conspicuously infamous, and place tho Republican party in a position still moro odious. It is possiblo, thorefors, that the Prosidont and Benator Morton and Bon Butler have cop- cluded that it is more to the advantage of the party to wash ils hands of the Lousiana busi- ness than to go ou with it; that it is better to lose Kellogg aud Pinchback, and their corrupt and dishoneut followers, than to further offond the moral senee of tho entira country. party expediency, the country will rejoico if tho nity of choosiug their own Btate Governmenl.

Sims Reoves, Santloy, Wuchtol, and Castlo were under con- tract for moxt winter, aud tho engngement of four such artists as theso shows how roligionsly sho was keoping hor promise. Her sudden death wiil probably brosk up tho undertaking, snd thls loaves the fleld of Euglish opera clear for Misy XKellogg, whose future vontures wefe more or less governed by tho movements of Parepa and Lier husband, 1t only romains for us to briefly dwell upon the merits of Luphrosyno Paropa as an artist and n Indy, for hor public and privato lifo were more distinctly dofined than tho lives of most artists, who eatry their slage manners and routine into their experiences off the atage. Wo think that the majority of pooplo who have lLieard Parepa will agree with ua in tho statomont that she was obe of the pgreatost, if not tho groatost, vocal artist of hor day. From a dramatic point of view, many of her contemporaries outratiked her. Her physiquowaa fatal to effect in many oharactors, although sho strugglod against it courageously in such roles for instanco as Mari- tana ond the Bolemian @irl. Thore wore charactors, however, like Leonora and Yorma, in which sho succosded batter, slthough even in theso she facked intensity of passionnto emotion and offective dramalio force. Bho had dvamatio talont, but not dramatio genius. No particular character of hers stood out in such clear voliof, for instance, as Lucen's Mignon, Nilsson's Lucia, or Zucchi's Lucrezia Borgia. In tragedy, she nover succoeded in impreasing upon au audienco the pathos or intonsity of the situation ; but in comedy she was ofton oxcellent, both from hor own netural goninlity and her keon approciation of overything that was humorous, In pathetic or trugical situations, her face was & blank; but in merry econes, it fairly lit np with the sunniest of smiles, and her hearty, ringing lnugh was always irrosstible, Notbing funnier than the absurd chango of per- sonations with littlo Herseo in tho last act of the ‘ Nozze di Figaro" could be imagined, and the hoarty manuer into whick she used to ontor into the absurditics of the situation, and tho izeon rolish with which she onjoysd the ridicu- lous disparity between hersolf and tho little singor, never failed to convulse an audionce. ‘When it comes to music, however, no artist was over grounded upon mora soltd abilities, Her voice was like o matehloss and finoly-tuned in- strument in its puvity, and this quulity gave to it wonderful distinctnous and penetrative powor. A remarkublo instanco of this waes alforded ab the first Boston Jubilea. BShe had horsolf groat donbts as to hor ability to fill the vast Colisoum with her voice, and at the firyt rohears- al was vory roluctant to appear, -Hor doubts, however, disappoaved after tho first concert, Ilor opening number was the “In- flammatus,” in which she tool the sustainod G ngainst o thousand instruments und ten thou- sand voices with such purity, aud ot the samo time with such force, that it waa distinctly heard in tho most romoto pars of the building, Inad- ditiou to these «ualitios, hor voice was oven thronghout it entire registor, and thoroughly balanced, aud, notwithatanding it groat volume and quantity, hor command of floriture wan extraordinary. Her method was perfect, and Las more than onco beon held up as a model by tenchors for their pupils to study, and both in intonution and enunciation sho was fuulless. \When to all this ia added tho fact that sho was tho most correot practical musicicn on the stogo, and o porfect mastor of musical tochnicalities, the scerob of lor groat roputation 8 dieclosed. Ior versalility was mno less remarkable thut hor voonl abilities, Sho ssng in_ Gorman, Italian, or English opers, In oratorlos or in ballad musio, with equal eage.

In baltad musio, also, gho was unrivaled, The most of the ballads which she sang wero the morest musleal trifles, With almost any other siuger they would bave been droary and commonplaco; bub overything sho touched she adorned, and little nothings like * Pivo o'Clock In the Morning,” * Bing, Birdlo, Bing," and ** When I've Nothing Elso to Do," loft an unmistakablo impression upon avory one whon sho ind sung them, In hor privato life sho was & lady of upsul- 1od roputation, Bcandal had nover touched her fair fame with oven a breath, Ier disposition was amiable and affable, hor good humior con- stant and overflowlng, and her feellngs kind and clinritable, In hor soclal intorcourso sho was unusually sgroeable and onsy, and her olegant ceultuto lout & special chiarm to hor conversation, Heor place will not easily bo fillod, for she camo nearer to the hearts of tho peoplo than any other elnger, Ifer splendld voice is forover huubed, sud we uball look upon that gonial, Bocloty, then led by 1Ians Balatka, soouvod her : | hold. sunny face, which was ns innocont ag thoe face of n child, no moro, Bho hna lott behind Loy, how- ovor, n thousand delightful momorlos, and tho pleasantest mualonl ansocintions of Chicngo clun- tor about tho name of Euphrosyno Parepa-Rosa. . ——— The days of * broad oulture” aro gono, The flaid of Iknowledgo has hecoma too groat for any man to traverao nll of it.
