Edmunson & Plant, bailders. On Pennsylvania avenue, between Third and Four-and-a-half streets, the preety which was a last year by S. Fowler, for $8,000, is ing improved. Mr. P. has caused the old build- ing to be pulled down, and is erecting a large and ec ious store and dwelling house, which will involve a heavy outlay of money. Baldwin Brothers are now engaged in finishing the two first class dwellings on E street, between and Third, for Messrs. Berret and Arnold. ‘These are three stories. pressed-brick fronts, and the interior finished with all the latest improve- ments suitable to dwellings of that class.

Baldwin Brothers are engaged in erecting for themselves four three-story dwellings on Db, be- tween Second and Third sts. These, except they are to have mastic fronts, are to be completed in 2 similar manner to the dwellings pf Messrs Berret and Arnold. River News.—The water has fallen very con- siderably since yesterday. The current is less rapid, and things look more favorable with respect to the winding up of the fishing operations along the shores Yesterday evening, as the steam tug Wide Awake was towing a canal boat loaded with lime stone from the Georgetown channel dow: hrough the western draw of the Long Bridge she madea lureh, and sent the lime stone boat one side, when she ran foul of one of the piers of the bridge and smashed up. She sunk immediately, and is now at the bottom of the channel in some 24 feet of water. The owners intend to bring suit against the Captain of the Wide Awake, for al carelessness on his part. s The river is swarming with fish, but the ate heavy current has seattered them about, taking the work of —— dificult and not yielding Jarge hauls. The fishermen on thew per grounds are doing a good business in # smal way. Arrived this mormivg at Harvey's wharf, sebr. Robert Wilber, from down toe river, with 61} cords of pine wood for Messrs.

We shall see. At Alexandria this morning shad were selling at Sil and $12, and hefing at $10.50. Many ves- sels arrived yesterday, but brought few fish. Excursion to Mount Vernox.—The mem- bers of the National Musical Convention, many of whom are from distant States, determined, be- fore returning to their respective homes, after the session of the Convention was concluded, to visit Mount Vernon ; and their trip yesterday will long be remembered with unmingfed satisfaction by ail who were able to join the party. The day was bright and beautiful; with just breeze enough to prevent the heat of the sun from being oppres- sive, and as some of the gentlemen had sent a piano-forte on board the Thomas Collyer, for the vecasion, and others took their instruments with them, there was no lack of music, both vocal and jastrumental. We were especially pleased with some of the pieces for piano, violin and finte, whieh were performed in a very beautiful man- ner. On account of the tide it was deemed best te go down to the White Houxe Pavilion before stopping at Mount Vernon ; and while there, after several of the ladies and gentlemen bad enjoyed some healthful exercise in the bowling alley, din- ner was served, and then the party repaired again on board the boat. Oa arriving at Mount Vernon they gathered around the sacred spot where repose the mortal remains of the ‘+ Father of his Country,” and sung the solo and chorus, ** Rest, spirit, rest,’* in @ very feeling and appropriate manner. After | spending a short time in looking at the mansion. | the members of the Convention returned on board. the boat, and were landed at the wharf here, Without a single incident having occurred todis- turb the harmony or mar the pleasure of the tri If we chose, we could tell who it was that mace three * ten-strikes”’ in succession, and has been equally successful in the line of his profession, thas winning esteem of all during his present Visit fo Washingion; but we presume our read- ers can guess.

Among the new contributions to this excellent follection of works of art we notice two pictures - ef great mezit—one of them by Johnson of this the portrait of a child, full length, in pastile, # most exquisite production, radiant with nature, beauty and life; the other is a painting in oil, by w Washington. This work is called the * German Peasant Girl."? She is Tepresented as a Worshipper in the house of God, holding in her hands the beok of prayer, her countenance is raised heavenward, and beams with an inex = sible glow of faith and heavenly love. This 1s one Mr. Washington’s best pictures, and | thouglt ese having been painted rapidly. Rives evidence of the artist's superior genius and rapid progress. It is a work of great merit. We also notice among the recent contributions, several large size miniatures on ivory, by H. B- Bounethean, of Charleston, S. C. “These are #mong the best miniatures we have seen; one of | them is a half length likeness of Napoleon, or rather Gen. Bouneparte. it is from a picture, it is presumed, painted about the time of bis cam- paign ia Egypt. Another nge miniature is a likeness of Wash- ington, from Stuart's ¢ en picture, and is a work of the highest order. in this department of the Pine Arts . Navy Yarp Imrrovements.—The foundations of the new Boiler Shop are nearly all laid, and the brieklayers are engaged in the erection of the walls.

The opening chorus, «Let every heart rejoice and sing,” was a 1 poo commencement, and its powerful crash of song afforded a suitable introduction to the deliciously-rendered quartette, ‘Softly, lightly, sweetly sing,” by TWesacs. Irving, Glenroy, Wight and Wesson” “ Our native ?) by Mr. Root, was clamorously encored; but Mr. R., with a touch of that quiet humor by which he is dis- eet ee the audience seme “ re ime bel a one, any repetition Biers would compel an omission of some of the E* things set down for performance. Mr. R. jas taken occasion, more than once during his stay, to rebuke, in a good-humored way, the senseless habit of demanding a repetition of almost every eae as performed, for which he deserves the rty thanks of a long-suffering community. solo ‘* How lovely is Zion.’’ was well ren- dered by Miss F. Gurley, as was ‘Salut a la France’ by Miss T. A. Daniels. Then followed one of the gems of the evening, ‘‘ There’s music in the air,”’ a quartette, sung th admirable har- mony by Messrs. Irving, Dawson, Loomis and Perkins. Next came the “Una voce fa,"’ sung by Miss Beach, a young lady of much mu- sical promise, and the development of whose talent we watch with interest, as exhibited from time to time. Mr. J. Hodgson then gave “ The White Squall’ with fine effect. "The succeeding chorus, ‘* How beautiful are the mountains,’ was sung with good harmony and time. The song The wild flowers soon will shed their bloom was given by Miss Hall, a young lady possessing @ voice of great natural richness. Mr. Root then announced a New England home song, ‘‘ Never forget the dear ones,’’ which was sung by Messrs. Root, T. E. Perkins and G. B. Loomis with a feeling and taste that rendered an encore inevitable. The delight and surprise of the audience would doubtless have been hei ht- ened had it been aware that this delicious har- mony was com| Mr. Root only yesterday afternoon, while on the trip to Moun’ Vernon, and was si without rehearsal. The jubilate chorus and semi-chorus which came next, was as a whole the best executed plece of the — The duet Norma, sung y. ‘was an acceptable performance of an arduous un- dertaking. The chorus and echo ‘ Light-hearted are we,’’ went off brilliantly, and the ‘echo’ (composed of two ladies and two gentlemen) was loudly bid rare on its return to the room “<The Happy Muleteer’’ was pleasingly rendered by Miss FJ. Daniels, though badly adapted to her soprano voice. Miss Hall, a young y of Baltimore, sang ‘‘ who'll have me,"’ and the au- dience one and all insisted on ‘having her’’— sing it ayain! The performances ended with the closing por- tion of Root’s cantata of ‘The Haymakers,’’ and in this was icularly noticeable the pure, rich soprano of Miss Anna King. Mr. Root then made a handsome valedictory, and the Convention finally broke up, and ageneral hand-shaking and leave-taking ensued. The Association will meet next on the first Tuesday in May, 1868.

Aronson, of New York, was entered by thieves, and twenty-five gold watches, the lowest in value $50. the rest ranging from that to $200; sixty gold chains, average value $20, and other articles of jewelry, the whole amounting to $2,500 or $3,000 in value, were stolen. The owner had been on a tour through the South, for the purpose of disposing of a stock val- ued at near $50,000, and was on his return with the goods he had not sold. ‘The information was immediately given to the clerk, who, with all the aid he could obtain, com- menced a search for the goods, but up to this wri- ie no certain trace of them had been discov- e-ed. It is probable that this gentleman was followed by hawks from his starting in New York, to his arrival in Washington. No blame can attach to the proprietors of the hotel, whe have done all they possibly could to ferret out the perpetrators of the robbery. Tax Nationa, Horer Disrase.—The New York Herald thinks that the Academy of Medi- cine of that city, in its discussion the other eve- ning ‘‘ gave the quietus to the enormous humbug that the late National Hotel disease at Washing- ton was the result of a dastardly attempt to poixon Mr. Buchanan. The stinking sewers, venting their deadly — into end all over the house, will, or ought to, account for the malad and solve the imystery to the satisfaction of al sensible people. That any human being could entertain such a diabolical and venomous hatred of Mr Buchanan as to risk his death by poison, involving the lives of hundreds of unoffendin ple—men, women and children—passes a! nds of credulity. We have no doubt that Mr. Buchanan, in his election as President, and since, has had fewer enemies and more universally the ood wishes of all parties and all sorts of men, thes atiy other President since the time of Mon- roe.” Permits -—Circumstances, we hear—probably the abuse of privileges granted, by some colored persons, without respect for themselves—have re- sulted in orders to the police to enforce the law requiring every such person to be provided witha — if out after 10 p. m., even when attending palls, parties, fairs, concerts, &c., for which gen- eral permits have been granted by the Mayor. We, therefore, advise all colored persons to be sure, under such circumstances, to be provided against molestation by having a pass about them. one signed by any respectable citizen will afford the requisite protection. We understand that any citizen can grant a spay ood for one month, toa colored person in his or 8 employment, or one, good for one night only, to any other colored per- son. The monthly pass should be taken by the person to whom granted, to the captain of the night guard, whose endorsement on it makes it good for the time specified, all over the city Tas New Dome anv Caritot Extension.— The new Dome is beginning to assume quite an appearance of substantial beauty.

Wasuixcton To nave A Gymnastum.—We notice among the new features in the way of city improvements, a Gymnasium, which is being es- tablished in the buildings of Messrs.

Mr. 8. has rented the upper story of the building known as Vernon Hall, which he is fitting up for the above purpose. The manufacture of the necessary apparatus for the manly exercise—such as pric bars, horizontal ladders, spring boards, te ling Weizhts, ete.—are bei ne by Messrs. unt & Donophan, and reflect ‘h credit on the skill of those gentlemen. Prof. 8. intends soon to establish in the northern portion of our city a similar institution for ladies, to be under the di- rection of Mrs. Shattuck.

Rossery—On Thursday morning, as a lady from the country was standing in front of the auc- tion stand, at the corner of 9th street and Pennsyl- vania avenue, she had her pocket picked by somé adroit thief, of her porte monnaie, which con- tained $1250 in cash, and a note of hand for $300. A colored man. who stood by, was sus- pected of the theft. and accordingly an officer was called, who arrested him, and took him to the guard house. Whether he had taken the porte monnaie or not, could not be ascertained, but on searching his person nothing was found to justify his detention, and he was accordingly discharged. ‘Tue Mecuanics’ Fire Comrany of Louisville, Ky., is coming to pay the Washington firemen a visit.
