We have done nothing which we have occasion to regret, and the foreign view of the stone blockade is simply a malicious absurdity. A Reper Gevenat Conressinc Tus Corx.— General Holmes, the rebel commander of the Agquia district, on the Potomac river, in an appeal to his troops urging the importance of a re-enlistment—their one year’s engagement being nearly ended—says it “would be wicked to disguise the truth, that ‘we have to contend against a powerful: and wealthy nation, possessing vast resources for ‘war, with an immense army already occupying “our territory and our strong places, with an active navy closing our ports;” and that “the Northern army now in our front will be in a few months efficiently organized aud well dis- eiplined;” and that “its able commander crafti- ly and surely bides his time, when the term of + enlistment of our troops expires, as the proper ‘moment for an advance.” These are very suggestive confessions, The ypresent armies of the rebels were enlisted for one year, under the idea that within this limita- ‘tion King Cotton would call in England and France and settle the question. Theyear, how- ever, to alarge body of the rebel troops, is draw. ang to aclose, and just as the government of the Union is beginning to show its strength. Our troops, enlisted for three years, are all right; but ‘with the expiration of the one year of the rebel ‘volunteers thousands of them will go home to Jook after their families and private affairs; for ‘they have been depending on this important ‘privilege, and they will have it, unless forcibly detained. Tlat they will, however, be thus de_ ‘tained by some compulsory process is very pro- Dable, from the discussions of the subject going nat Richmond; but that this fighting upon compulsion will tend to demoralize the rebel army, and thus do much to disorganize and break up the rebellion itself, we think is very likely. At all events, with ten days now of good, old fashioned frosty weather, the rebels throughout the South will practically compre- hend the fact that they are contending “against & powerful and wealthy nation, possessing vast resources for war.” Acapeay ov Mvsic.—Flotow’s charming opera of *3far- tha’? was givon last night toa nouse which, considering the dismal character of the weather, might be considered an oxtraordinarily good one. The parquette was crowded, tho balcony was respcctably filled, with the exception of _ a fow of the front soats usuaity occupied by the Aeademy dead heads, and the upper tiors made a very fair show. Altogether tho audience prosented a more unanimous and fashionable appearance than any one had aright to expect under tho circumstances. On Mr. Maretzek taking the conductor’s scat In the orchestra, a cordial cheer of welcome burst from the audionce, which, on his bowing his thanks, was as warm- lyrepeated. Every one seemed picased at the return of & chef who had ostablishod so many claims to the favor of our opsra-zoing public. Letus add that the influence of his presence was manifested in more ways than one. Both orchestra and chorus seemed conscious that they wore under the c ntrol of an old and firm disciplivarian, and even the artists appeared to sing with more confidence and spirit, from feoiing that they would bo properly supported. ‘The Lady Henrietta of Miss Kellogg, if not as great a Sensational success as her Traviata, was artistically a performance of even greater merit. In the latter role her delicate physique and her comploto abandonment of herself to the emotional influonces of the part, won fo, her in tho last two acts @ veritable triumph; but as a qhole the character was not as perfectly sustained as as her Hearictta last night. Tho pressure on our spaco will not allow us to enter into a closer analysis of the merits of the performance. It is suMcient to say that it Clicited the enthusiastic applause of the house through, out, and confirmed tho anticipations formed of the bril- tiant careor that tics before thia talented young artist. Briguo!: was in excellent voice and sang superbly. Susini a'so did full justice to tho music of his role. Altogether the opera was as well sung and played as its warmest admirors could have desired. ‘To-night the “Trovatore” will be given in Brooklyn, Miss Hinkley in the part of Leonora.

Just about this time the transport New York, which was coming in to join the fleet with a quantity of provi- sions and ordnance stores on board, ran aground on the bar, and though her situation at the time did not excite Any considerable degree of apprehension, she has since become a total wreck. Her loss secms to be a picce of the grossest carclessnes#, and without attempting to direct blame to any particular quarter I will give the story of her fate as related to me by several of the offi. cers and passengers, all of whom fortunately eseaped:— ‘The propelicr New York left New York on the 7th instant, reached Fortress Monroc on tho 9th, and sailed for Hatteras Inlet on Saturday, the Ith, Whilo in the Reads one of her valves became disatranged, but it was repaiged, and she preceeded on her way after a deten- tion OP scme two hours.

She anchored outside tho inlet, and when the pilot made his appearance was asked the usual! ques- tion, ‘*How many feet of water she drew?” Tho response was, ‘About fifteen feet,” and my informants state that the pilot then told her to go shoad—that all was right. This latter piece of information will certainly soem strange in conteast to that which was given to Captain Bonnett, of the Cossack, who, when accosted a few hours before in the same menuer by tho pilot, and having re- plicd that his draft of water was eight fect, was told that there was too much sea on thio bar to cross with safety. Procesding on, she struck a already stated, and as the gale increagod she became more and more imbedded in tho sand, until hor removal was out of the question. No attempt was made to haul her off, as the natural danger: of tho spot, with its heavy surf and sea, was enhanced by tlio swiftly swolling gale. Soon. after striking, the first mato, Rogors, with three of the crew anil one of the passen, leserted her and mado tho best of their way toa schooner in the vieinity. The pilot, seeing this, returned to tho flag shi, and reported that Sho was safe, aud that hor crew were leaving her, though with the exception of those mentioned above as having deserted inthe boat, n> attempt was made to leave her by tho romainder until tho following day, when her destruction was inevitable. This report was the oc- casion of retarding any relief that otherwise would havo The gale steadily increased during tho same night, oud en the morning of the next day (the 14th) it was necessary to cut away the foremast to keep her up jainst the sea, which was washing over her, making a clean broach, sweeping away the woodwork on the deck, the pilot house, cabin, cok houseand e: now hoisted the signal of distress, and her crew, after stl further lightening hor by catting ‘away tho smoke stick andjeasting her freight into th faold ,betook themselves to the rigcing where they remained’ until this morning. fhe bilged about four o'clock in the afternoon and filled with water, The strain of her timbers whon sho go: aground at first caused a leak,and hor pumps were ket going until about ton-o'clock the next morning, when they were ubandened.

They say that the rebels have abandoned the island, erossed Croutan Sound to the main Jand, snd thero evected now and are strengthoning old fortifications, while lower down they have tiled the brush and woods on the shore with masked batteries. ‘This is evidently gocd policy on their part, as td have romained on tho island would have subjected thom to the certainty of capture—retreat boing cut off when their batter! weresilenced and their forts cccupied by our troops.

The Park was orowded—in fact, too much so for the conveniaaea of tho skatore, Hundreds wont thore toreo Jackson Mayne, of New York, perform his feats on ico, hig reputation in that lino being something like that of Hogrmann as a preatidigitatecr. “He was the f a fon during tho evening and was i!ways surrounded by @ erawd, and never failed toastonish them No one can visit that Park on the ithont heeo! ncodt that 4 not the only place where good nights the Ce skaters can be found.

Nothing else of any importance transpired in the Sonate. Some time of tho session was taken up in session over Notaries Public and Loan Com- missioners, ‘The vill confirming the ordineaces of the Common Council in reference to the support of families of yolun- toers was ‘ted from the committee this morning, and is now tu Committee of tho Whole, and will probabiy pass to-morrew. ‘The Sevate bill of the sime nature for Brook- lyn was read the thr tine in the Assembly this mora- ing, and new ouly awaits the signature of the Governor. ‘The bills required to full! the letter of the law before the funds for the common school interest or State debt can be used for those purposes shail be pagsed, was re- Ported from the Weys and Means Committee this morn- ing. ‘There has been ® great deal of commotion in regard to the nomination for Superintendent of Public Instruction. ‘The wording of the call for the caucus lias been ehanced since last evening, which may upset the calculations of quite anumber. Tho call first issued was for ail of those who supported the national administration: but it was changed this morning and a different kiud of a call is- sued, confining it to those who supported the successful portion of the Union State tieket, or, in other words, on the basis of the Raymond caucus at the commoncement of the session. The radicals or barnburner republicans have been making a desperate effurt to-day to rally that portion of tho members on Kice. Adead set has been made ato large number of members, and a fow changos have to doubt bocn made, but we shail soon be able to toll how many. There was last night some twenty mcmbers un- committed to either side, waiting to sce what issues might turn up in the caucus, All manner of elforis have beon made te secure their votes to-day on both sides. Probably the hardest pressure has been made for Rice. ‘Thecaucus met at four P.M.,.ond only ninety-oight members participated on the first batlot,and one hun- dred om tho second—not near a full caucus. A large nuinber of the Union democrats refused to take part. Victor M. Rice was nominated on the second baliot. ‘This is the first result of Raymond's speech in the As- sembly lastevening. Last evening even Rice's own cau- cus nominated Keyes in a full caucus,and my canvass: gave Keyes fifteen more yotes than Kise. The Union democrats and barnburner republicans were so aroused on the speech of Raymond, in which he insinuated dis- loyalty, thet a fight at once commenced. A united and dosporate etiort was made aad kopt up all of last night and to-day on that point, resulting in the nomiua- tion of Rice. ‘the change has all been bronght «bout to- ‘thie ig but the beginning of the end of the effects mund’s speech. i were two more votes on the last ballot than there were members voted, as was ascertained by a careful tally of the members a3 thoy deposited their ballots, bat that did not change tho result.
