By tho arrival of the steamship China, at Halifax, we are put in possession of news from Europe one week later. Arrests of Fenians continued. The Dublin prisoners had been examined before the magistrates, and a startling blood and thunder story of contempinted assassinations, coercion and other iniquities was hurled at their heads by the prosecuting authorities. ‘The most significant item of the news, however, is the ‘effect which Prosident Johnson's policy is producing in Burope. Thore is such a rush for American securities that the brokers can hardly do business fast enough. United States five-twenty year bonds have jumped up two per cent, and closed on the 30th ult. at 70 a 7034. American cotton has also rison considerably in value, and the Liverpool market is in the highest degree buoy- j ant and excited. < MISCELLANEOUS.

Thero has been quite an exciting canvass in Ohio and Pennsylva- ‘ia, and a moderate one in Towa, while in Indiana up to Friday last no ticket had been annonneed by the de- mocracy, and very little was said or thought of the e tion.

The question being in part as to the observance of the necessary formalities in exccut- ing this will, the Surrogate holds that the presence aud agency of a competent and disinterested lawyer, and the fact that he was one of the witnesses, and superintended the act of executing, make a strong présumption that tho Jaw was complied with, r en composing the Tunts embassy yester: day visited the Gity Hail and the Brooklyn Navy Yard.

The war has upset the “cardinal principles” and the dividing bar- riers of our political parties of half a century, In ‘its political results onr short } but tre. mendous and unparalleled civil war of four years will be 2s effective as were all the civil convulsions of Rome, from the time of Marinus and Sylla to the great pacification under Au- gusius and the empire, Wehave done as much in these four years of war toward establishing the future policy and “manifest destiny” of the country as was accomplished in England in all her internal convulsions from Charles the First down to the grent setiloment under William of Orange; oras much as was done in France from the destruction of the Bastile down to the restoration of the Napoleon dynasty. President Jobnson, recognizing and endors ing these great results of the war, and armed by Congress with the powers of a military dic- tator, inthe work of Southern reconstruction, from the ruins of slavery and tho ruing of State sovereignty, is reorganizing the Union on the basis of univereal liberty and the sovereignty of the United States. But be 1s doing this not asa military dictator, but as a servant of the sovereign people, adhering to the landmarks of the constitution, and resolved upon the pre- servation and perpetuation of the republic, The people, North and South, approve his course. They approve his policy of postpon- ing this thing of Southern negro suffrage to a more convenient season, in view of the urgent necessity of restoring the Southern States, so that they may help us in the settlement of dur national debt as soon 2s possible.

In round numbers, then, we have to exclude throughout the year a hundred thousand :dol- lars in advertising in order to publish the im- portant news of the day. The statement, there- fore, of the Bohemian press and the unsophisti- cated provincial journals that echo it is simply absurd. Crrr Poxrrics.—We again urge upon Tam- many Hall, the only regular democratic organi- gation of this city, to promulgate its platform and nominate its ticket for the November eleo- tion without delay. The postponement has al- ready given rise to many rumors of bargains for the November, as well as the charter elec- tion, The Mozart and McKeon factions are try- ing to attract attention, raise a breeze and make the public betieve that they are all pow- erful. The noise kicked up by those factions are no doubt the work of Vitriol or Vinegar Gammon (not Oily Gammon), of Mozart Hall, who hopes to sell his Mozart skeleton to some green politician, just as our mock auction venders palm off a pewter watch for genuine gold, Vitriol or Vinegar Gammon (not Oily Gammon), of Mozart, has successfully practised this game in the past, and, like the confidence men, calculates that there are still 2 few green politicians left. It is ramored that he is baiting 4 politician recently imported from the country, and has got him already to bite. Whoever makes a purchase of Vitriol or Vinegar Gam- mon’s (not Oily Gammon’s) skeleton will find themselves worse sold than the dupes of the confidence men with the “ drop game.” Vitriol or Vinegar Gammon (not Oily Gam- mon) recently paraded his Mozart Hall skele- ton in the dark and went through the farce of a bunacombe address on reform, nominated Judge Ingraham for the Supreme Court, with candidates for one or two other offices, and then adjourned for a bid, first tak- ing the precaution to send his stool pigeons around to watch for the unsophisticated poli- ticians. Mr. Ingraham, we understand, is not a candidate for re-election, and would decline the nomination if he thought Vitriol or Vinegar Gammon (not oily Gamnion) could possibly induce any person to vote for him. He has already nearly worn himself out on the bench, and is anxious for an opporiunity to reat and recuperate after his long and arduous labors. The impudence of Vitriol or Vinegar Gammon (xot Oily Gammon), of Mozart, in withdrawing John K. Hackett from the canvass exceeds anything that has ever transpired in the politi- cai affairs of this city. It throws into the shade the effrontery of the pickpockets, mock auction venders, confidence operators and even the Behemians. Vitriel or Vinegar Gammon (not Oily Gammon) had no more authority to speak for Mr. Hackett than a mon in the moon. Tammany can put a stop to this bogus opera- tion, and should do it at once, as an act of ebarity to the green politicians, That organi- zation should take hold of the issues of the present without delay, and follow the pro- gramme marked out by John Van Buren by the endorsement of President Johnson’s policy and his nomination for the succession. Let Tammany do this, and nominate John K.

The tanks of the Grant well, a large Sowing well on Pithole creek, in the Pennsylvania oil regions, caught fire yesterday morning, and about four thousand batreis of oi! and thirteen derricks and engine houses wore de- stroyed, The total damage is estimatod at one hundred thousand dollars. No lives were lost. Outlawry is prevailing t an alarming extent in the Pennsylvania oil regions, in tho vicinity of Pithole City, highway robberies being of almost daily occurrence and character for the balance of tho ticket, and a reign of universal confusion. The policy of President Johnson is admirably adapted to avoid all these crnshing disasters, country. The people are with him; the man- aging politicians of both parties profess to be with him ; but this is the issue that remains to be decided. We think, however, that it will be decided in our New York November contest, not in the election of the one State ticket or the other—for both are good, and either will do— but upon the simple question of supporting President Johnson for another term. He will, in all probability, need a re-election to finish his work ; and who, if ft is satisfactory, can so. well carry out the Johnson progiamme as Johnson himself? Jobn Van Buren, as a dem- ocrat, has come up to this test. The republi- cons must meet it or prepare for the conse- ences. President Johnson, with the people at bis back, has the power to build up the rul- ing party of the future on the platform of bis administration. This, also, is what be mani- festly intends to do, and we know that he is a man who will stick to his text at all hazards when satisfied that he is right. What, then, have the New York republicans toeay? Do they mean to stand by Andrew Johnson in good faith, or to support him as the democrats, in his day, supported Jobn Tyler? ‘We must bave an answer to this quostion before our November election in favor of Johnson for another term, or the election may bring in the demoeracy as the party of the adininistration and the party of the future. Most of the leaders of the republican church were opposed, before the meeting of the Baltimore Convention of ’64, to another term for Abraham Lincoln, but how powerless they proved to be against Lincoln’s popularity. They could do nothing but submit. Equally futile, we believe, will be similar de- signs against Androw Johnson. What say the New York republicans? One thing they must do. John Van Buren must be answered. garro'ing beiug extensively practised at night.

New York Mercuants anv Presipent Jony- 80N.—Tho success of Mr. Johnson’s reorganiaa- tion policy is of more than ordinary importance to the merchants and business men of this, the commercial metropolis of the nation. It will revive the agricultural interests of the South and open a new field of enterprise, furnishing great inducements both to capitalists and emigration; thus bringing about a pros- perity of the Southern States beyond any- thing ever yet known in that section. This will come back with a reward of a ‘han- dred and a thonsand fold to the commer- cial and mercantile interests of this city. On the other hand, should the programme of the radicals be successful, and the restoration of the Southern States delayed until they can insert as its basis negro suffrage, repudiation and financial disaster are sure to follow. An- archy will be the order of the day in the South, actompanied by a severe contest between the two races, This will react upon the commer- cial interests of the country, and delay the return of that permanent prosperity which is only to be found under the reign of peace. The national debt will be largely augmented— distrust, disaster and ruin the sure result. In view of these facts is it not the duty of our merchants to lend their sid to strengthen the hands of the administration, and counteract the influence of the opponents of the President at the polls and elsewhere ! ‘Tue Sratm Canvass Axo Necro Surrragr— Poor Greeley appears to be doing the negro suffrage work of the party all alone.

There is no time to. be lost, Send for Somuer and Stevens at once. Mus! “ Good wine needs no bush” is an old proverb. Good artists need no puffing or bolstering up isa truism. The organs of the opera—which are most ingenious in manu- facturtag first class artista out of worn out and second rate ones, in importing love sick slavedrivers from Si- beria to make a romance for prima donna, and in dis- covering Golcondas of gold and jewels in the bosom of the Alps—have been laboring very hard to persuade the public that the three recently imported artiste at the Academy—the prima donna, tenor and basso—are some- thing superior to anything heard or seen, hardly except- ing Grisi and Mafibran, Mario and Lablache. But it is remarkable that the extravagant praise lavished upon them frequently falls several notes ‘‘below the line’’ even of practical criticiam, and has repeatedly to take the tone of apology for “evident trepidation” on one particular night; stage fright, a severe cold and a doctor’s certifi- cate on another—and soon. That the prima donna is only out of her teens, has a pretty face and a Polish- Siberian “history” and a ‘European reputation,” earned no one knows where, may be very true. That the tenor is well built, though small, and has rather handsome features, and that the basso is “unctuous,” may bo interesting toknow. But it is very evident that the criticism of the organs of the opera is strained to its utmost tension to make first class artists out of them. Let us take a few of the Bohemian notices which have appeared from day to day since the opera season opened as examples. The Bohemian of the Tribune, in speaking of the now prima denna in Ione, says:—‘The sanguine friends of the Management must have been disappointed with the debutante at fifst; for Mile. Bosstssio made but little im- pression in the two first acts. She, however, aroused the enthusiasm of the audience somowhat in the third and fourth acta. * * * * Her upper notes, when tasked much, are rather harsh, the result more of a faulty method than of the voice itself. * * * * To sum up, in a word, her style is raw.’? The Eohemian of the World, speaking of the same singer in Un Ballo i Maschera, says:—“She sought to make the most of the four or five vocal opportunities accorded in the part, and, im doing 60, once or twice be- trayed imprudence."” Tho Times says that the prima donna “did not fully come up to the anticipations formed for her (in Ione),"” and adds:—‘We aro assured that the lady appcared on the Italian stage, although it was impossible last night to detect any traco of professional routine, except, per- haps, in a few dramatic movements, aud a certain ease in coming on and going off the stage."? ‘The same jour- nal, describing tho voice of the new tenor, says:—“It is not of great compass, nor is it particularly powerful. Woe find its charm mainly in the quality,” &c., &c. Of the voico of the new basso the Times utters the equivo- cal and not very flattering opinion of a basso that ‘it is of considorablo compass, and better up than downward.” ‘The Tribune Bohomian says of the tonor:—“His middle voice has boon overstrained, and betrays some signs of wear and tear in its vibrations which cannot, apparently, be controlled." If the opera organs oannot do better than this they will never be able to manufacturo first rate artists to order.

Sxoomp Aysvat Conmaxomeent ov THs [raLtay Evzxina Scnoon.—A large and fashionable audience of our Italian citizens assembed Inst ovening at Public School No. 10, in Wooster streot, the occasion being the opening of the Italian evening schoo! for adults, “which is an institution recently formed by a number of influential Italians of New York, with Signor Aufora, Consul General of lialy, as their President, for the instruction of their fellow countrymen in the English language, and education in general, in which they are assisted by the Board of Edn- cation, who have givon them the {roe use of their bu'ld- ing, and otherwise facilitated their praiseworthy object. The corenonies. last evening partook for tho greater part of a musical character. eral eminent operatic personages were in attendance; and rendered ina beau- Ufal manner choice selections from the Italian opera. App remarks were mace by Signor Aulora, Messrs. Gerard and Mason, of the Hoard of Education, and others. The following statistics shows th increase im educational institutions in this city:—The first evening schoois were established seventeen years ago; th had sx schools, twenty-one teachers, and oue thousand two hundred and twenty-four scholars. Since that po- riod they have been inercased to forty-eight school+, with an aggrogate of nine thousand and fifty.sevea scholars, of which five thousand and ninsty-three are ‘and three thousand aad sixty-four are fetuales, while the ages were from seven to sixty years. Brixp Tom, Tax Nxcno Bor Pianist, gave his first con- cert at Dodworth Hall last evening. The house was weil filled by a very fashionable and critical audience, who listened to the performance and imitations of this won- derful musical phenomenon with the greatest astonish- ment, enthusiasm and satisfaction. As » wonder Tom morits all that has boen said of him. His power of memory is remarkable; also in execution, touch ami in- terpretation of some pieces he exhibits skill and the in- tolligence of a master, notwithstanding at times his look and motions are like one: bereft of all reason, Tom played last evening ‘‘sonete Legge by Beet first movement; Thalberg’s “Home, Sweet Home,” Gotsohalk’s “Last Hope,’ Lucretia Borgia fantaaie, and selections from Norma, Il Trovatore, andseveral of his own compositions. After the execution of eaah picce Tom applauds bimseif with all the enthusisem of any member of the audience, and sppears,just as well pleased and delighted. He ts certainly a wonder in his way, and his entortainment will not fail to interest and satisfy any one who may wish to see and heap a-wondestal musical prodigy.

In Sam there is a hitle bit of everything and « great deal of Dundreary and Artemus Ward. But Mr. De Walden is shrewd enough to know that hashes comedy to Lord Dundreary’s brother, returned from America to England, and figuring in a variety of scenes, original, some elected, but all either amusing or exciting, James Plushly, an old valet of with everything and everybody; Plushly’s posed by his confederate, Bill Crockett; the reat Sir Edward ‘Ashton is restored to his rights; everybody mar- ries everybody else, and all ends happily. If this may ie : i E a i i 2 a E Mi z 4 i z his imitations of other actors, and who imitates Sothern’s Sam to perfection. Mr. Parsloe, ina part half circus actor and half valet, brings down the house by his gym. nastics, but ought to be rebuked for his exaggerations. Mrs, Hind, as Miss Kuphemia Roslyn, is quite clever. Mr. Hamblin, as Plushly, is pretty fair; but the real Siz Edward Ashi isastick. Miss orne (who disfiguree herself by painting her eyes) and Mr. Evans (a new arrival) both deserve credit for their distinct enunciation, and for pot much else. Miss Olive eel leading female part, and is so prominent throughout that afair critic cannot overlook her faults. This lady is entitled to praise for relinquishing the idea of becoming a Western star and settling down quietly as a stock actress, If she would discard her Westernisms she might fill her piace neatly. Hor face in repose is not unpleasing, but when she speaks she distorts it terribly. she acts too much, talks too much through her nostriis, and xbrugs her shoulders too much. ler acting lacks that artistic quiet and that artistic finish indispensable in: a loading lady. Either from nervousness or some othoe cause, sho is excessively awkward, and both her voice and her manner appear strained, affected and artificial. She has, if anfthing, too great confidenco in herself—e confidence pot yet justified by her performances. Last evoning she made the best part in the play almost disa- greeable to the audience. Still, we are happy to add’ that at! of these faults, to which we refer not unkindly, may be corrected by time and study, and that Mise Logan evidently has the disposition, if not the practice, roquisite fora but not a great actress. Finally, the house was crowded, the applause unbounded and Sam may be pronounced a decided success. ‘Tux Ravets.—These performers are representing them. selves at tho theatre next te the Metropolitan Hotel. They are, a9 thoy have always been, very popular with oar citizens. In their presont performances they elicit the usual amount of applause. But there seems to be a gross lack of attention to the interests of their patrons, and many of them among their oldest, in the arrango- ments of the house. The side avenues of the house are rammed with auditors, and when onc pays a dollar and @ half for a seat, presuming he has an easy way of ogress, he is mistaken whon tho time of leaving arrives. Every avenue is crowded. Last night there was a full house, Young America, avery attractive, if not the most attractive member of the Ravel troupe, did not appoar, The humbug of giving bim that nom de plume was appreciated by the audience, The rest of the Ravel troupe—and there waa only one of thom, Antoine, on the boards —barely sustained thoir old repu- tation in what is termed ‘the Enchanved of in which An- a living show for favorite future a. We never saw anything with the were fall s0 fiat upon an audience. The ballet, with Signora Popita at its head, is better viewed from tho fasaity circie than the orchestra chairs. Van Hamme is remarkable, He executes three evolutions in the air, a triple pirouette, and oxacted the only real applause the audience appeared willing to. give. ‘Tho farce that preoedes the Ravel performance had better be relieved of its vulgarity if the Ravela desire to sustain their previous reputation before the American public. No troupe sustaining the position have had heretofore will maintain the public favor sur- rounded by their present helps. Last night a blush was bronght to mr aface by aloose remark made by tho principal comedienne. Wa.tack's Taeares.—Last evening the drama of Miriam’s Crime, brought out last year at the Olympic, was produced at this theatre for the first time, The bills Announced beautiful scenery, magnificent costames, &c , although the entire drama takes place in an ofdinary oom and the costumes are modern, It savored, sus- piciously of Solon: Shingle and Timothy Toodles, theoth or characters being rendered mere accessories to the pecu- liarwit and humor of a lawyer's clerk named Biles, Me.

With all Shaksperais two contu- ries of experionce he: never had any worse than to be: played at the Olympic with this lady ag his heroine. Tho- performance was simply the worstover seen of a Shakeperean play in this city. Not a manin the play was fit for his part, The usurping Duke was a most, diffident gentioman, who could hardly get his voice hogond the fooslights; and the excited Duke mouthed has lines in a vsay to justify whoever sent him into oxils. Mr. Mason played Jacques, and, roared Itke Buliy ; Bottom. Mr. Mortimer played Qriando, but ought ta ‘bave had Tonchstone.
