But both the old and new Constitutions direct that the field officers shall be chosen by the written votes of the company officers of the regiment, and that the brigadiers shall be chosen by the field officers of the brigade. ‘The new Constitution directs also, that brigade inspectors shall be elected by the field officers of the brigades; he, there- fore, inquires whether the portions of the new militia law are hot unconstitutional and void.

Itatian Ovena.-Donizetti’s opera of “ Lucia di Lam- mermoor,” was ogain presented at Palmo’s last evening, to a very Jarge audience. The elements were propitious, | the snow which had been coming down almost without intermission for neerly thirty.six hours, ceased to fall | just about sucset, and the evening was tolerably plea’ | sant. The atmosphere was tolerably clear, and so fa vorable for the performers in the opera. We doubt whether “Lucia” can be presented by the excellent artistes in Whose hands it is, with better effect than was given to it last night, Barili sang with such clear- hess, up, up, Up, like one of nature’s warblers, whose notes are not to be imprisoned within any scale ; clearly, sweetly, perfectly, she made of Lucia all that Donizetti could have pictured it when composing the work— churlish criticism might say the prima donna exerted herself a little too fur at times, but she preserved in per- fection of sound every note she attempted, and no more could be asked. Beneventano is well calculated for the | character of Lord tienty Ashton; and the full, round, | soul-reaching notes which he produces as none other | than he has ag yet done here, were last night given | with even beiter effect than heretofore. Jlis voice, hever uopleasaut, has yet so gi eat volume that it'sometimes reaches the ear in such iorce as to surprise rather than delight—like a bold proposition of a powerful orator, which wants to dwell a moment in the mind before its tuwh or beauty can be realized—yet alwa: from the ear an acknowledgement of its re $ jast night even this, which we will hardly call a fault, was not discoverable, his notes reached the aud. first in all the soft richness with which he cat | gly clothe them, aod gradualy assumed the powerful.

City Intelligence Tar Wratnen—Last nun of StricHinao.—The snow Which commenced to fall on Saturday night kept it up right merrily during that night, Sunday and Mon- day. Yesterday morning found us with a comfortable covering for mother earth; and sleigh bells, which had been hung up as if for the season, were once more taken down, the omnibus sleighs were overhauled and brought into service. The reilroad cars made o fow uncomfortable , and then gave it up for a bad job. Wheels were decidediy owt, and runners were in vogue. The snow, however, kept coming down so fast 98 to mako pleasure-riding a thing not to be thought of, except in prospective. A fener base could not he weil found for a good run of sleighing than was formed by the alternate rain, snow and hail of Saturday night and Sunday, with the coat of snow which had since been added; and it kept coming, snow, snow, snow, from morning to mid day, till far into the afternoon Just before dark it stopped snowing, apd the omnibuses aud backoey sleighs had it all their own way for the evening. itis difficult to say how mach snow has fallen; it has beeoma so compact that it will measure far less in depth thon it would if it had fallen in ordioarily light flakes.
