INTERNAL Revenve.—The receipts to-day from this source were $373,104. Tus ComMitrre on Ways AND MEANS was to-day engaged in the consideration of duties upon paints, chemicals, &c. Tae Virneixia Bitt SigNep.—The President this morning signed the bill for the admission of Virginia, snd it was transmitted to the State Department to be filed. ‘Tue U. S. STEAMER ALASKA, which had been refitted and repaired at Boston, sailed from that port for New York, on-trial trip, during which her machinery was much damaged, and she will again have to be repaired at New York. Tue Darien Exrepition—The steamer Nipsic, Commodore Selfridge, has sailed from The Guard and a steam tug will follow to-day. The expedition will reach its destination about the 3d of February. GENERAL Ames.—Gencral Sherman having granted General Ames (in command of the De- partment of Mississippi) leave of absence, he has issued an order assigning Colonel Penny- backer, second In command there, to act as chief of the Division during General Ames’ ab- sence. “ Mercy Dopp” will be brought out at Wall’s Opera House to-night, with the full strength of Laura Keene's Philadelphia Company. The Play is said to be one of Boucicault’s best, and a crowded house may be expected. Gen. Sher- man will be present. The comedietta of “Two Can Play at That Game” will also be performed. Hox. Wx. Wiiitams, M. C. from Indiana, has the floor the first time the House again goes into Committee of the Whole for the purpose of making a speech on the railroad monopolies hereabouts, and will, we understand, pay his particular respects to the Baltimore and Ohio railroad. TRANSFERS IN THE REVENUR BrREav— Col. D. C. Cox, of Uhio, for some time past Chief of the Division of Bonded Spirits and Tobacco, Internal Revenue Office, has been transferred to the position of General Super- visor of the Department, in place of W. P. Sherman, who has been transferred to the head of the Stamp Division. REDUCTION OF THE AnMY.—The House Com- mittee on Military Affairs has agreed to one clause of the bill of Gen. Logan for the reduc- tion of the army, which is for the a pointment of a board of five officers to examine all officers of the army below the rank of Brigadier Gene- ral, to determine who may be mustered out without detriment to the service. THE WasHINcToN AQUEDUCT INvRSTIGA- T1IoN.—The House Committee on the District of Columbia held a meeting this morning and re- sumed the testimony in reference to the Wash- ington Aqueduct. The witnesses examined to- day were Messrs. Wm. Smich, John Collins, E. Z. Stever, Robert S. King, Thos. B. Samo, Wm Later, and Kiley A. Shinn. Orvicers Must Write THerg NaMEs.—The ‘War Department has issued an order directing that hereafter all papers of the nature of vouch- ers, or forming a basis or authority for the ex- penditure of money, which should be originally signed or officially authenticated by any dMicer of the army, will be signed or authenticated, as the case may be, with the pen; and the affixing of stamped, printed, orflithographed fac simile signatures will be discontinued. Tux OrERa—“Linda” is one of Donizetti’s least attractive works, and we are surprised that it remains in the modern repertoire. We must, however, say for Miss Kellogg that she makes the most of it. Her modest appearance in the first act, in the character of a plain Sa- voyard maiden, and the rendering of the cava- tina “O luce di quest anima,” in an un- affected manner, yet with great delicacy and finish, charmed every listener. Whilst her voice is not the most powerful, yet it is fresh and pure, and her intonation perfect. ‘We cannot speak more favorably of Mad. Lum- ley’s Picrofto than we did of her Asucena of Mon- day night. It was most unsatisfactory. Signor Ranconi, as an actor, has no superior on the lyric stage, but his voice is almost gone, and whilst he made all he could out of the character of Antonio, the role of Crispino suits him much better. Lotti is » fair singer, but a poor actor, and whilst Fossati and Barili were acceptable, we cannot say anything special in their favor. Chorus and overture, as usual, were very good, but we miss the experienced impressario, Max with baton in hand. To-night Lefranc will appear in “ William Tell.” The score of this opera shows many high C’s in the tenor part; im fact, it is the se- verest of operas on tenors. From the superb manner in which Lefrane carried his part in “ Trovatore” on Monday night, public expecta- tion runs high in regard to his performance to- night in “ William Tell.” Socizty—The second card reception at Gen. were Secretary Robeson, Senators Trumbull, and wife, Corbett and wite, Stewart resentatives Washburne and Welker and ladies; Ex-Attorney General Evarts, little, and Ex-Secretary McCulloch and wife; Generals McDowell, Marcy, Dent, Badeau, Dyer and wife, Poe and wife, and Cols. Dayton and wife, and McCoy and wife; Admiral Porter guests with their accustomed cordial bonhomie, which does so much to make all visitors at their hospitable mansion feel comfortably at ease. In this pleasant duty they were assisted by their Gaughter, Miss Minnie, and Mrs. Judge Bart. ley, of this city, and Mrs. Judge Granger, of Ohbio,—the former the sister, and the latter the niece of General Sherman. The display of elegant toilets was unusually large and brilliant, and in this respect the as- sembiage last evening has not been surpassed by any of the season. After the withdrawal of WASHINGTON, D.
