By the way, Colonel H. is involved in a diffi- culty, from which he may find it difficult to ex- tricate himself; which, when added to his law- less and cruel whippings of soldiers and team- ye him much trouble.

The after piece of the “Barber of Rouen,” ishighly amusing. We can commend every one to make a visit to the old Park. * Bowery Tueatre.—We were pleased to see such o good attendance at this well conducted theatre last evening. The play of the “ Stranger’? was repeated, and it must have been gratifying to all the actors to observe the frequent bursts of applause given them by the audi- ence, more particularly when some of the beautiful sen- timents contained in the play were expressed. The actors performed their various parts admirably. We sere particularly pleased with the manner in which Mr Barry maintained the character of the Stranger. Bel- lamy acted Solomon to admiration, and Burke was, in truth, a perfeot Peter Simple, in’ mind, words, and actions. Mrs. Phillips sustained the cb: ter of Mra. Haller to the satisfaction of all, and rounds of applause were frequently awarded her. Mr. Plumer rang with much better id heartily encored by the company. “ Witch of Hell Gate”? Mr. Marshall was a pe! in _Kyd. and in that character could scarcely celled. As usual, the“ Kiss in the Dark” was received with roars of laughter. Cuatnam Turatne.—There was rather a slim house at this theatre; but notwithstanding, the parts were as well played as if there had been a house full, The drama of “ St. Clair ofthe Isles, er the Outlaws of Barra,” was ployee, in which Mr. Brandon sustained the character of Lord Roskelyn, and Mrs. McLean that of Lady Ros- kelyn. The Model Artists, as usual, were received with applause, and decidedly the most beautiful ever exhibited in the city, new groups being added almoat every evening. Mr. Fletcher will introduce, in hort utiful tableau, representing Venus, with her resting on the shoul: of Mars, and gasing it tently into his face, while right foot rests upon a golden apple, presented to-her by Paris, as a prize for her beauty. The design was furnished Mr. F. by 6 a taken from a seal, as follow ‘New York, Jan 8th, 1847.—Mr, J Fletcher—Sir : Being a frequent attendant upon y: nd ing witnessed your admirable“ Model Artists,” in their tcbleauz vivants, I the liberty of enclosing to you an impression of a seal, taken from a Mexican officer slain on the battle ground of “Cerro Gordo,” sent to me by my bother, a New York volunteer; which you will please add tothe representations of your magnificent il- lustrated pictures. Yours, respectfully, A Sister or a Brave Votunterr.”” The Ethiopian Melodists are also very entertainin, in their negro extravaganses, while the performance o! Mr. Turner, on the dulcimer, fills every one with won- der and admiration. Stevermanxiscus Musicat Societr.—Last evening, the Tabernacle presented 4 brilliant array of the musi- cal dilletanti, to bear the dulcet strains, thrilling har- mony, and sublime scientific performances of this well- disciplined, celebrated band, Their soft and melodious music would tame the wildest heart, and excite cheer- fulness within the most gloomy mind. Mauy of their plaintive, inspiriting airs mirror up to the imagina- tion by-gone scenes of the most pleasurable cheracter. The poetic writer, ina words, beautifully describ the impressive quality of this delightful accomplishment: “ Musio the soul, song charms the sense.’’ Asthe human frame, in its grand construction, is based upon harmony, the mind being the sweet instrument which. by its action, tunes the nervet id makes the: play in unity and concord, or otherwise, acoording to the \mpression it receives—and that heaith or sickness may follow its action. We don’t know a place in this city where more sgreeable or pleasing sensations can be ex- cited, and consequently healthful results follow, than by listening to the bewitching strains and soul-stirriog me lody of the band now{performing, three times each week, atthe macie. In fact, we cannot select any parti- cular piece which these inimitable performers execute— all have! their charms, The “Talisman Waltzer,” by Lan- ner, was excelient, and the introduction to “l’Elisir a’Amore,’’ by Donizetti, was given with such a thrilling combination of sweet sounds, quivering upon the ear #0 melodiousiy,and dying away in such enchanting har mony. that repeated cheers followed its ormance The* Klengs ausder Haimath,” “Sounds from Home,” was the most plaiotive, beautiful pievoe we have ever heard. The execution of the lasace om bie vivlia wou here correct stretches and chromatic down the cheers of the audience. Next came the Night’s Review,” a tablean of , Fepresen' in musio the evening, night, and universal slumber of humam nature—the approach of the hour of ghosts—and the dawning of dey, woen the sweet warblers of the skies and all animated nature awake in cheerfulness and melody. ‘This most delightful piece of music we have fact, it befties description. The soft, sw: euphoneous music in this splendid composition should be heard by every lover of music. There is every reason now to sa; that this uorivalled band will meet with the success the: talont deserves. Cuasty’s Mivetners-—We need only say that Mechanics’Hall was last nigot as thronged as it has been any night these three months,aye four months pests it neal eecabing, how the folks pour in to ear these mini ls. We suppose it can only be ex- plained by the intrinsic merit of their perforinances. Christy and his band are perfect Napoleons in their way, it is very evident. Broapway Opron.—Ventriloquiem and Model Artiste are are all — now adays; ae take the shine off every thing within range, at least they do at the Odeon, which is crowded nightly. He now gives no less than 18 distinut tableaux evening. Me opgon.—The negro performances at this place of amusement, together with the exhibition cf the Pano- rama of Mexico, are attracting very good houses. White is a great favorit Musica Inuvernations or Suaxsreane.—Mr. Lynne and his musical associates will give the second of a re- ries of these illustrations to-morrow evening at the Fe- male Academy, Brooklyn. We oan endorse the encomi- ume which Mr. L. received in New York, and recom- mend him highly to our friends across the river.

Concert Hat, Newarx.—Md'lle Augusta, having been disappointed by the musicians she had engaged, was under the necessity of putting off her firet enter- tainment until last evening.

We have seen the articles, and can truly say that they are superb. They reflect the highest credit on the donors, the manufacturer, the engraver, and all con- cerned in getting them up, and will be a magnificent present to the gallant Heutenant. The articles are of beautiful werkmanship, extremely chaste in their de- sign, and weigh something like one hundred and twenty- five ounces of solid silver. On each article there is an city, representing the Bonita in front of engraving, neatly executed by Mr. George W. White, of thie ¥ ‘4 “4 : colts a e Vera Cruz and ithe Castle of San Juan de Ulloa. t cost of the whole is something like four hundred dollars.

New York.” And on the pitchers, “Presented, January 1, 1848, to Lieutenant Timothy Green Benham, U.S. Navy, by his fellow citizens of Richmond county, as a token of their esteem for his dis- tinguished services and nautical skill on board the U. 3. schooner Bonita, during and subsequent to the attack on Vera Cruz, March 24 and 25, 1947, and of their admi- ration of his deportment in private life. 8.

On the open- ing of the court yesterday, he was called for sentence. He stated to the court the closely approaching death of his wife, and the condition of his helpless children.

Consequently, upon this information, Mr. Thornton, a member of the London detection’ police, arrived here by the steamer Caledonia, on Wednesday last, and en- the ald of officer Hays, who at once set to work to ascertain the whrreabouts of Derensy In the course of @ couple of days, Mr. Hays ascertained thet the accused had exchanged several Bauk of Eng- land notes and gold, at the exchange office of Mr. Alex- ander Taylor, in Wall street for Jersey bank bills; upon this,a was at once obtained respecting the location of Derensy amdon procesding to New Brunswick, it was tound that the accused had purchased « farm about three miles from that place, and;located thereon. Offloer Hays then made application to one of the magistrates of that plece for a warrant, in order to arrest Derensy, to await » requisition from our Gover- nor. This application was refused by the meg- istrate, which, as a matter of course, threw the officers Leer jung on their beam ends, until a method was adopted b; r. Hays, who is very ingenious in such matters, in order to decoy the accused into this State, finding it impossible to meke the arrest there. ‘There- fore, to effect this object, Mr. Hays proceeded to the residence of Derensy, and informed him that the Jersey money thus obtained from Mr. Taylor was a great pro- bad, or counterfeit; and to make the matter correct and satisfactory. it would be well for him (De- rensy) to come to New York and ree Mr. baa i On this information, Mr. Derensy felt much surp H . not being able to return on that dey, gave Mr. Haysa note to Mr. Taylor, stating he would bein New York on Tuesday morning (yesterday).

This morning was undoubtedly the coldest that we have experienced this wiater, the thermome- ter having indicated two degrees above zero, in an out-door situation, at day light. The ice mer- chants are preparing to plough out from the sur- face of the Schuylkill river their annual supply of the commodity they deal in. ‘The Delaware is likewise seriously obstructed by the floating ice, but the arrangements for towboats this win- ter, will remove this obstacle to the navigation of the river between the city and the bay A wretched jinebriate, to eseape perish- ing from the extreme cold of last night, crept upon a lime kilo near the Schuylkill, and was found this morning insensible, and canvaye: to the hospital. His feet were both burned to 4 crisp, and his face and head so much scorched that his life is despaired of. His name is un- known, and may never be disclosed, as he re- mains ina speechless condition. _The National Graya, of this city, gave a splen- did ball, last evening, at the Musical Fund Hall, which was well attended, and gave infinite plea- sure to allwho participated. Among tue invited guests was Captain McOlay, of the Scotch com- pany, of your city, who beeime quite the lion from his gay Highland costume. The ladies became quite enamoured with his tartan, and but for the tear of rendering somebody jealous, | might be tempted to give an account of his harmles flirta- tions with the belles of the ball. The Reading Railroad Company have declared and an agent was left in New Brunswick to watch the departure of Derensy, immediately telegraph the fact on to New Yor! js was done according to in- struction, and immediately upon the arrival of the acoused, yesterday morning, at the foot of Courtlandt street, he was politely escorted before Justice Osborne, where he became alarmed at his situation, acknowledged the fact, and refunded near $2500 of the funds ¢ embezzled This man, it ms, was hpi tr surer of the institution called the Comm! mers of Works. It further appears that Derensy was in this country sbout six years ago, when he left and returned back to Ireland, leaving here a wife and two children.

Duffy. The property was recovered, and Justice Timpson locked her up for trial. Charge of Manslaughter.—A man by the name of Allen Bowie was arrested yesterday on a 10 of vio- leutly beating his wife a year age, by which violence she died. It appears that the accused, some yoars ago, had served out an imprisonment in the State prison of seven ears, and on many occasions he acc his wife with wing been the cause of such imprisonment; for which he declared he would take her life. Consequently, on a dispute between them one uight, he attempted to put is into execution by holding her uown in bed; and placing his knees upon each arm, held her nose tight with one hand, snd the other placed over her mouth, until she fainted; when, after a short time, find- ing that she was coming to again, the brute blowed down her throat, for the purpose, it was supposed, of etrangu pg i aNd § BfoBEH* nde BEY alee ihe husband, meantime. absconded, and has since bern among the missing, until arrested yesterday.

Several of the reporters were also in attendance, and the counsel on both sides, ob- serving them, stated to the Court that Og) did not wish to have the testimony made public. His Honor then re- ferred to the statute, and stated that it declared that all evidence taken by order of Congressional committees, should be taken in private, and suggested to the gentle- men of the press the propriety of withdrawing—-some of them, however, seemed disposed to demur, on the ground that the statute was unconstitational, the constitution declaring, ‘that all courts of justice shall be held with open doors,” It was then intimated by counsel, that an STiocrament would be asked for, and that all future for specie to purchase government bills of the Commis- sariat Department, who were furnishing them at s lers rate of premium than was demanded by bank. toric copied one yA We articles on the fay of 0 Inte prosecten uote, between Colonel rene and J Reade, "The ara haa pot bran made Yor of Colonel Terresa-Sermode' Noyel Gas, Bes. ts meetings would be held in private.
