During the last week the Postinaster General has dis- soontinued seventy-five smal! post offices, many others having becn previously abolished. ‘The New Orleans Picayune of Tuesday says a number of private lottors from Vera Crug allude to a threatened expedition against that city, Alvarado, and other places on the Gulf coast, but none of the writers appear to enter- tain apy fears thereof; and this, not from any protection the constitutional governument would be able to afford, but from the well known jealousies among the opposition party. Their argument appears to be that even in case Miramon really conigmplated such an expedition, he would not daro to set out on it, lest during his absenco Marquez should seize the reins of goverument. ‘The Explosion of Dupont’s Powder Milla. ‘Wuanyaton, Del., Oct. 22, 1869. The explosion of Dupont’s powder mills, on the Brandy- wine, yesterday, occurred about one-quarter to cloven o’olock A. M., while the men in the lower or hagl+y yard were employed in loading powder dust (as it is called when, in a certain condition) at the press room, to be conveyed to one of the other mills to go through another process. Aone horse cart stood opposite the prees room door, pastly loaded. The press room ‘blew up” with a terrible crash; tho composition room immediately followed; a minute or two later the gluzing room, and then two rolling mills simaltancously. Seven men were killed, and avothor had his arm broken. The wind was northwest, and high at the time, which deadened the sound so much in the immediate vicinity that the men in the upper yard did not cease work on tho instant, and Mr. Henry Dupont, who was in the basement of a cotton mill not far distant, did not think, from the light report, that it was necessary to hurry to the yard to ascertain the damage, if any had been done. Two of tho men were blown into the Brandywine, one into a tree, and the headloss trunk of another was blown to the oppo- site side of the creek. Of the others nothing could be ascertained. A strange feature in the explosion ts that the horse was. not killed, although standing in proximity to the press room when it went of. The cart to which be was at- tached, and which was partly loaded with powder dust, ‘was thrown about in fragments. Tho horse was entirely atripped of his harness, his bair singed off, one eyo put out and one leg broken, and yet, after thesinoke and dust cleared away, he was found \iinping about the yard, ex. hibiting all the signs of painful agony which he suffered. He was knocked on the head and killed to relieve him of his agonies. The names of the men killed were—Moran, Sweeney, Sebar, Jacobs, John Welsh, Michael O'Donnel and E. Dougherty. The Coroner visited the scene of the explo- sion to look after his interests, but could learn nothing, all the witnesses having been killed. Destructive Fire at Louisville. Lovrsviizg, Oct. 23,1859. A fire broke out on Main strect last night, destroying the stocks of Messrs. Wilson and Starbird to the amount of $70,000, and of J. Watson & Co., paddlers, $15,000, and Porter & Buchanan’s agricultural implement store to the extent of $10,000; J. Crabb & Co., dry goods, $10,000. Others lost smaller amounts.

ARREST OF AN ALLEGED FUGITIVE MURDERER, Somo four weeks ago, it will be recollected, a man named James McGee was robbed and beaten to death at the corner of Mission place and Worth street. The affair happened in & room over Crown’s grocery, and created & good deal of excitement at the time. The Coroner’s jury rendered a vordict against two men named Bi!l Jones and Pat Farrell, both of whom fled from the city, and wore not heard of unt) within a few days ago, when policeman: Jourdan received information that Jones was secreted in Philadelphia, _ About the same time a young man named John Gillen was arrested for having assisted the fugitive in making his escape, and on being taken before Justice Brepnan he was committed to the Tombs for examination. On Tuesday last officer Jourdan proceeded to Philadelphia in search of Jones, where it was understood the latter was engaged as a deck band on board of a steamboat. Three days wore spent in searching for tho fugitive; and at last, when Jourdan was ubout to give the thing Gp, he espied Jones on the deck of one of the Delaware boats steamin, up the river. The eae leone his eye on the boat unt she landed atone of rs, and then hastening forward prepared to arrest the fugitive. Just as he was about going on board, however, Jones recognized him, and at Once started off across tho decks of some vessels, aud succeeded in getting ashore abcad of his pursuer. Jour- dan fo}iowed fellow thror many lanes and alloy ways, but Jones proved himself a match fer the officer, and managed to effect his escape. Jourdan then tole- graphed to Captain Dowling, requesting him to come on to Philadelphia, as Jones was found to be secreted there, Captain Dowling took the first train on Saturday morning, and on arriving at Philadelphia he engaged the services of a couple of detectives to aid bim in the search for the fugitive. That day the police discovered Jones secreted in St. Mary’s street, near Seventh, and taking him into custody hurried aboard the afternoon train. prisoner was taken before Justice Brennan the same evening and committed to prison to await the action of Coroner Schir- mer.

For a year or more, however, ho has been a denizen of the Five Points, and on more than one occasion the police bave had suspicions aroused as to his honesty and integrity of character. The police have discovered no trace of Farrell, but in arresting Jones they have ac- complished a great deal more than was expected under the circumstances. Autecep Ewngzziina Casn—ARrxsr at TE Poet Orrice.— A young man named Hutchinson, who has been for somo years in the employ of Winslow, Lanier & Co., Wall street brokers, was arrested on Friday at the Post office, on a charge of having opened and embezzled lettors addressed and belonging to the above pamed firm. It appears ho left their employ about the first of August last, aad it is said that ho has since been engaged in the publication of a flash newspaper, only one number of which has as yet appeared. It is alleged he bad been observed to call fur the letters of Winslow, Lanier & Co. since he Jef them, and in one instance is said to have presented a forged order, but failed to obtain the letters, not having the usual box “‘card’’ of that firm. A few days since, it came to light that a check for $281 61, drawn by the Buffalo Marine Bank on the Bank of North America of this city, and sent in a letter the Post office to Winslow, Lanier & Co., had - sented at the Bank of North America and fee, the namo of the firm having been forged. the “Teller of the Bank, on being shown the check, folt confident that it was presented by Hutchinson, and the handwriting of the forged endorsement seemed to confirm that belief. Friday forenoon his movements were watched, and when he camo to the Post Office he was taken into custody by police officer Blackwood, when a United States warrant was obtained, and he was subsequently placed in the hands of the United States Marshal on tho charge of opening and embezzling letters. His confessions to the agent of the Post Office depart- ment are said to have beon full and frank, and embraced the opening and destroying of a number of letters, and obtaining the money on a bill of exchange (taken from a letter) of the amount of about $800, and also admitting his guilt in the case of the bank check for $281 81 already described. Hutchingon is an intelligent young man, of about twenty-one years of ago, of prepossessing manners. He came to this city a few years since from the South. Aurckp FRaup cron Emigrants.—Frank Fowler and Joba Gilbert, passage ticket agents of No. 186 West strect, were arrested on Saturday and brouglit before Justice Connolly on a charge of defrauding Christian Hien out of thirty-five dollars by means of a false token or bogus passage ticket for Europe. Hien wanted to go to Bremen, and not being able to talk English was persuaded to buy a ticket for passage in the “steamship Ammonia.” Ho subsequently ascertained that no such steamer as the ‘‘Ammonia”’ existed, and en- deavored to get his money back, but Messrs.

We, as Brooklynites, are somewhat surprisod at the ground taken in your editorial of this date upon the pay- ments of claims and debts against the city of Brooklyn when they amount to deficiencies. By the charter the Common Council are prohibited from lovying in a present year the doficiencies of a previous one, and all such ments aro made only on the passage of an act of the Legislature authorizing an issuo ‘of bonds, the proceeds of which shall pay such deticiencies. By arecent act of the Legislature $27,000 was thus realized, and most of that was from judgmenta on old Wil- lamsburg debts at the time of congolilation of the cities of Brooklyn and Williamsburg, and not the reault of a doeficioncy of a regular tax levy. The Joint Board, during the session of 1859, positively refused to put in the budget a claim for deficiency of the street cleaning account of the Eleventh ward. This and other actions of the Board prove positively that they, as public body, act within the scope of authority conferred upon them by law (as a goneral hing), and keep the faxes toa point that is endurable. The gross amount raised annually is about $900,000, from which deduct their income, say $160,000, and we buve $750,000 to raise by taxation ina city the third in size in the United States. Unlike Now York city, wo haye no great amounts of rovenues from ptors, wharves, ferrica, licenses, &c., to poy our expenses with. The incomo trom streot im: provements in New York yield an immense amount. citizens of Brooklyn aré the paymasters of tho large amounts of money paid for ferry leasea into the New York treasury. Give us fair play, and with our largely increased facilities of transit by new railroads and a pion tiful supply of water, we will furnish beantiful and health- ful residences at economical rates for the Now Yorkers who require a suburban city asa residence, whore all the comiorts and pleasures of life may be en- joyed. MONDAY, one un wearied Operatic and Dramatic Matters. ‘The last week was a very busy one at the Opera and the theatr-e The Academy of Music was opened for tho regular scason with tho promise of several new artist, three of whom—a prima couna, a tcnor and a baritone— age been introduced tothe public, ‘Tho prima donna (Cro@iagnno) was a remplacant for Speranza, of whose beauty wo have heard so much, but whose début is yot among tho \hings of tho future. It is stated, authorita- lively, however, that the health of Mile. Sporanza has been 0 far improved that she will shortly sppear. In tho meantimo we have enjoyed a fine performance of “Rigoletto,” by Mmes. Colson and Stra- Koech, Signori Stigelli and Forr!. Mme, Colson has im- proved very much since she sang here last, and Forri is ssuperb artist. The opera will be repoated this oven- ing. ‘We are very glad to announce the engagement of that excellent artist, Madame Gazzaniga, who will sing on ‘Wednesday next, The programme for the wook will be found in the appropriate column. On Tuesday tho artists of the Academy will sing im con- cert at Brooklyn. The programme embraces the names of all the principal singers, and tho concort will be well wor- thy the patronage of our musical friends across the water. Senor Lacoste, of Havana, a Spanish tragedian of high reputation, will give a literary and dramatic soirée at Dodworth’s Saloon, on Tuesday. Mr. Lacoste will do- claim co'ections from the poems of Victor Hugo, Alfred de Mussett, and Lachambeaudic, and will be assisted in the mousical department by Mrs. Clara M. Brinkerhoff, ono of the most popular of our rcsident artists, and Mr. Gongora, the Spanish pianist, ‘The second public rehearsal of tha, Philharmonic So- ciety will take place at the Academy of Music om next ‘Wednesday afternoon. At the theatres the week has been a very lively one. Tho renirée of Mr. and Mra. Barney Williams at Niblo’s Garden was the eveot which attracted the greatest attention. These favorite artists were received with extraordinary enthusiasm, and at- tracted throughout the week the largest audiences ever seen in this popular theatre. Their European experiences: have been especially valuable in voning down some of their extravagances, and they return to us finished artists in their speciality. Mrs, Williams is especially excellent ina @ever burletta, “An Hour in Seville.” Her per- formance in this piece is au exceedingly agreeable one in evory casential. * At tho French theatro a drama by Delavique, “pon Juan d’Autriche,” hag been very suc- cessful. It is founded vpon the well known historical event of the abdication of Charles V. of Spain, and is very interesting. The principal rdle has been admirably acted by M. Mazure, who is engagod at New Orleans, and stays here a fow nights en rowe for the Crescent City. ‘The new piece at Wa'lack's, founded upon Moncrief's “Rochester,” bas been very successful. At the Winter Garden “Chamouni III’? recommends itself to the public by the superb way in which it has been placed on the stage, Miss Laura Keone has gratified ber patrons by the revival of ‘A Midsummer Night's Dream,” which was played throughout the week to good. houses. ‘This evening the announcements at the city theatres are briefly as follows:— At the Winter Gardon, Mr. Bourcicault, from whose de- Signs this elegant theatre was constructed, will take his benefit, when ‘Used Up" and “Chamouni II.” will be played. At Wallack’s theatre the new piece, ‘Fast Men of the Olden Time,’ and the farce, “Bathing,” will be played. At Niblo’s Garden Mr. and Mrs. Barney Williams will play in Mr. Plunkett's clever drama, “The Fairy Circle,” with “An Hour in Seville’ and “Latest from New York.” At Laura Keene’s theatre “A Midsummor Night's Droam” will be given three nights more. As one of the most beautiful spectacles ever placed on the New York stage, every one should sce it. At the Bowery theatre Mr. Plunkett’s drama, “The Rebel Chicf,” with a new play, called “The Duke's Jes- ter,” and a ballet—‘The Sallor’s Dream’’—make up a strong bill. At the New Bowery a fresh drama, ‘Stella Delorme,”’ with “Don Cesar de Bazan,’ and ‘The Magic Barrel’’ (pantomime) will be played. At the French theatre the Draytons give two of their popular parlor operas. At Barnum’s Musoum a new local drama called “Wills and Ways,” written for this house by Mr. H. J. Conway, will be played every night this week, and also in the afternoon. ‘The programmes at Wood's and Bryants’ Minstrels are out for the week. They will be found especially attractive to the admirers of the colored opera. Novenrres ro Comm.—A new musical piece, taken from “Les Deux Avengles,” by Miss Maria G. Wolcott, is an- nounced as in rehearsal at Wallack’s. Miss Laura Keeno is preparing “A Contested Election,” comedy by Tom Taylor, and “The Wife’s Secret,” drama in five acts, first played in America by Mr. and Mrs. Charles Kean. Several excellent pieces are announced ag in rehearsal at the French theatre. German Orzra.—At the New Yorker Stadt theatre, on Tuesday last to a well filled house, and pleased the audienceamasingly. Mad. Siedenburg, Messrs. Guint, Lehman and Graf, sang and acted their parta very well. The orchestra, under the direction of Mr. Herwig, was faultless. The chorus needs strengthening. Prmspetrmia.—Mme. Gazzaniga gave a farewell concert at the Musical Fund Hall last Wednesday evening. The hall was full, and the concert seems to have given tho greatest satisfaction. Mme. Gazzaniga was assisted by Mr. Porring, Signor Ardavani and Mr. H. Sanderson, pianist. The latter was honored with two encorcs. “Dov’ at the Arch is the only theatrical novelty. It is @ success. ‘Waswuncton.—Miss Juliana May, assisted by Arthur Napoleon, gave two successful concerts here last woek. Tax Enausn Orera, Lonpon.—The Pyne and Harrison troupe opened at Covent Garden on the 3d October with an adaptation of Meyerbeer’s “Dinorah.”” The heroine was personated by Miss Louisa Pyne; Corentin, by Mr. ‘W. Harrison; Hoel, by Mr. Santiey (his firat appear. ance); and Clande, Louis the Hunter, the first and second atherds, respectively by Mr. St. Albyn, Mr. H. Corri, ies Thirlwall and Miss Pilling. Miss Pilling is well known in Lancashire and Yorkshire as ‘the pupil of Mrs.Wood,’” and her début is spokerf of in the highest terms by the metropolitan press. The London Times says:—“Miss Pill- ing, personating the contralto-goatherd, had to sing the air composed by Meyerbeer for Madame Nantier-Didiée. Miss Pilling is a mere novice, but her voice is |, and sho occasionally reveals such signs of tntelligence as to encourage strong hopes of her future career.” ‘The performance is said to have been completely success- ful. A new opera, by Mr. W. Vincent Wallace, ig an- nounced as the novelty of the season. Ay American Actor 1 Lonpow,—A London journal an- nounces the engagement of Mr. Joecph Proctor at the Standard Theatre, and saye:— The drama he has selected for his first appearance is eatithed ‘The Jibbernanoeay , or Nick of the Woods," which {s a dramatic version, in three acts, by Miss Medina, ofan ‘American novel by Dr. Bird, bearing the latter titls, and which has had, in its time, a large circulation in America. It preceded, indeed, the era of the Indian romance, illus- trated by Fennimore Cooper, who borrowed from the tale of ‘‘Nick of the Woods” the original idea of that series of narratives, illustrative of Indian manners, which brought him so large a share of celebrity. “Nick of tho Woods”? was less poetical, but more truthful asa fiction of Indian life. Miss Medina—whose veraion of the novel is repregented—has not followed out the original, but has made Nathan (Nick) something of a nondegcript—half maniac, half Indian—respecting whose identity with the terrible Jibbernanosay there is not the smallest doubt from the beginning. result to tho piece is unsatisfac- tor, i Leal Weed mare eg the = and the actor has uphill work, because he is constantly struggling be, anti-climax. It requires considerable power, ‘ere fore, to render the part effective; but Mr. Proctor sneceed- ed in riveting the attention of the auditory, and adding to the triumphs he has gained in his own country in the de- lineation of this character. We may speak of him in most favorable terms, and hope to see him soon in another part, which may aflord him a better opportunity of dis- play. Circes COMPANY For Cvpa.-—Mr. Chiarini, who has been for several yoars connected with Sands, Lent & Co., is or- ganizing a first class circus company for Havana, to sail hence in this week’s steamer. Justice to the Regular Cavalry. TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD. Lavervoot, Oct. 4, 1859. I noticed in your paper of August 16 a communication signed “Vindex,’’ in which, after a few preliminary re- marks about the injustice of praising some militia regi- ments and not others, it says :—‘‘The Gray troop, Capt. Varian, in the cavalry arm and the uso of the mountain howitzer, are superior to any company or regiment either in the regular or militia service in tho United States, in tho use of those arms‘ Pray allow me, threugh the columns of your journal, to utter a theoretical shout of remonstrance against such an assertion. Where has “Vindex” ever sean a drill of regular cavalry ?- Possibly a few raw recruits at Carlislo or Newport barracks. Cor- tainly not the veterans whose arduous duty from Fort Vancouver to tho Gulf of Mexico, in summer's beat and wintor’s cold, the country 60 poorly appreciates. I ask for a public answer to “Vindex,” as your pas circulates not only at home but in all quarters of the globe. I have met it in small towns in Switzerland and Gormany, whero even the brayiugs of the Uon-ekinned donkey of the Lou- don Times is eeldom heard. Ver: Sek CIVIS AMERICANUS SUM. OCTOBER 24, 1859.
