In what particular does one of these “most refined and intellec- tual forms of popular amusement” excel the other? If it be in ingenuity, then Joyce Heth ‘in breeches has the better right to the plate. As for “the interests of art,” it is surely more artful to transform an old horse into a natural curiosity by the aid of a coat of tar and a bag of wool than to pass off a lot of broken-voiced singers for superior lyric artists. “The responsibili- ties and embarrassments,” pecuniary and otherwise, “connected with the conduct of lyric entertainments,” are no greater than those which Joyce Heth in breeches has had to encounter. He is naturally fond of brandy and water, as Oily Gammon is of lager beer, and yet he has been driven to deliver lectures on temperance. From present appearances he 4s also as sadly in need of a presentation adver- tisement as his colleague of the Academy, and ‘we really do not see why he should not have it, ‘The same letter may be used hy simply chang- fing the address, and we presume that there rwill be no objection on the part of the owner to loan him the same silver plate. Tue Powttictans AND THE Brooxiyn Navy Yarp.—During the political canvass prior to the elections in this State last fall the Com- mander of the Brooklyn Navy Yard, under orders from the Navy Department at Washing- ton, shut down upen the collection of political assessments from the workmen employed there. This order caused quite a consternation among the politicians, and they have been swearing vengeance upon Commander Bell ever since. ‘The order was just and right, and should be enforced in all government offices. But it ap- -pears that the political managers in Brooklyn have come to grief in another way. The Com- mander of the yard discovered that several men working on salaries ranging from nine to twelve hundred dollars were suddenly becom- ing rich’and the owners of numerous buildings, including a few brown stone fronts. How this -could be accomplished in » few years on such small salaries was a mystery, especially when most men find it very troublesome to make both ends meet during these high prices, with even larger salaries. An investigation, how- ever, revealed the fact that there had been a combination between several parties by which the muster rolls were manipulated and a large amount of money received on false names. ‘The mode of making fortunes was no longer @ mystery, and how men on small salaries could purchase numerous houses was explained. A decapitation immediately took place, and it -80 happened that the blow fell upon the friends -of those politicians who were so grieved over bability of Sport To-Day. ‘There was no skating yesterday at the Park, much to the annoyance of the crowds who flocked thither fully Prepared for a day’s enjoyment. The day was not so cold as the two previous, but in the morning and on through the afternoon a fleecy fall of snow proclaimed the fact of winter having set in in earnest. The Park presents now # marked contrast to its appear- ance when made re-echo, on a Saturday afternoon, to the music of the Park Band, The Mall is almost deserted, save by a few stragglers who hasten towards the Casino for some warm decoction wherewith to thaw the icicles forming in their throats, The lakes, so short a time since set in emerald foliage and shining in the light of the summor sun as shects of glittering silver streaked with golden veins, now are sheeted with opal-like ice. wont ‘The swans, to disport themselves in the liquid element, ariaking in the soft strains of music from the gondolets which skim- med its glassy surface, are hybernating. The banks, with their freight of verdure clad trees, now are heavily frosted with snow, while the trees are bare and leafless; and yet there is a never-dying attraction in the Park. All seasons disclose some new advantages of this popular place of resort, and through the week, and for many weeks to come, the wood shall resound with the voices of the merry skat the jocund laugh, the crank- ling of the ice beneath the ‘of the thousand visitors.

Skating in Brooklyn. Throughout Saturday night and Sunday ice was mak- ing on all the ponds in Brooklyn, so that to-day fine sport may be anticipated on the Union, Capitoline, Chichester’s and Washington ponds. In the event of a snow storm, which threatened to come yesterday, the ponds will he cleared of snow by snow ploughs and other apparatus kept on hand for that purpose. City Amusements, The theatres and other places of amusement in the metropolis which are conducted by a management fully impressed with the great moral responsibility which attaches to such a calling wore very well patronized in the past week, although it was quite apparent, during the last few days, that a good many persons in the crowded audiences turned wistful eyes towards the ample skating ponds of the Park, Fifth avenue and other quarters, and wished that “Jack Frost’’ would “manage” to produce a more substantial coating of ice on their glassy surface. Wo find, as noticed below, that the theatriéal folks promise very rich and agreeable treats in the way of public entertainments during this and Vggrocresine days of the present week. FIFTH AVENUE OPEKA HOUSE. George Christy's Minstrels are to perform another new programme at tho Fifth Avenue Opera House, West Twenty-fourth street. Melody, mirth and inst jon have been harmoniously blended in it, and the new members of the troupe are confident of earning a contin- uance of the friendly enthusiasm with which they were groeted on their first appearance. Charles Melville will sing the bailad ‘Beautiful Isle of the Sea’’ this evening, and George Christy, with @. L. Halt, will give Desdemo- na’s Troubles.

Mr. Montpellier does not permit his business en- terprise to cool his patriotism; for he gemerously donates Church, Eighth Street. ‘The three Titans of Music—as the renowned organg of Weingarten, Cologne and Haarlem have been appro- priately named—may well look to their laurels, and fear lest they be eclipsed some of these days by an American instrument; and such an instrument will, doubtloss, be heard in Gotham ere long, completely eclipsing the svi- dissant great organ of Boston, with its “quaker” pipes ‘and half atops, over which the pious burghers of the “Hub” went into unseemly ecstacies. The latest triumph of American organ building is the magnificent organ of St. Ann’s church, lately constructed by Mr. Henry Erben. A bnef description of this regal instrument was given in the Heraup yesterday. We shall present our readers to-morrow with a detailed de- scription of its various parts, the peculianty of many ef {ts stops, and tho novel and ingenious combinations in the mechanism, which will place it in the highest rank among the organs of America. The church of St. Ann was crowded to excess last evening to hear this masterpiece of human skill speak efor the first time. Archbishop McClosky, Rev. Mr. Starrs, Rev. T. 8. Preston, pastor of St, Ann's; Dr. Anderson and other clergymen occupied seats in the sanctuary, The artists who were to unlock the vast musical trea- sures of the new organ were Messrs, Louis Dechaner, Dessane and W. F. Pecher; Mdlies, A. Wells and M. Bodenhamer, i gi Remi, , y a chorus voi assisted in the concert. The instrament not beit yet completed, and the organi not having had a previous opportunity of mal selves thoroughly acquainted with its pecul ‘was but little display of its powers. Mr. Louis Dechaner, organist of St. 's, directed the concert. The pro- grammo was a rather injudicious selection, ag it com- prised only pieces suitable for the opera aud an orches. tral accompaniment. We reverence Verdi, Boildieu, Welz and Gounod in’ their Proper sphere, Dut for the church and the organ we infinitely prefer the old Ger- man school.

The vocal pieces were unexceptionably rendered, a soprano solo from Torrenti, sung by Miss ells, anda contralto solo from Boildieu, sung by Miss O. Gonnin, being the leading features of the programme. Although we shall reserve our description of Mr. Erben’s work until to-morrow, we may here add, for the benefit of our Boston friends, that there are no blind pipes or stops or painted gingerbread work about it; but everything, even to the smallest piece of carving, is'solld and of the best materials, The Arion Concert. A musical entertainment was given at the Germania Assembly Rooms last night by the Arion Society, which ‘was quite a successful and well patronized affair. The concert hall was fully occupied by the friends of the Arion, and the musical exercises were of a select pattern. ‘The singer: of the Arion, who rendered several chorus songs with great perfection, were assisted by Mr. Julius Seaselberg, an accomplished basso, who sang an aria from Lortzing’s Waffenschmied and a warrior’s song, by Abt.

Hoe arrived in the steam revenue cutter Hugh MoCulloch, Captain Sands, carly on Wednesday morning. The Governor came ashore, accompanied by his lady and daughter, their arrival boing made known tothe citizens by a salute from the United States steam revenue cutter Kewanee, Captain Pease, and the gunboat Tacony in the harbor. The distinguished party first called on the Col- lector of the Port, Hon. A, G. Mackey, and from there visited Generals Sickles, Devens and Bennett at their re- spective headquarters. Afterwards, accompanied: by Captain J. M. Thompson, Port Treasurer, the party visited the headquarters of Colonel Gobin, of the Forty- i; Miss 0.

RIGHT RRY. BISHOP P, N, LYNCH has reached home and was joyful le appears in fine oa and the citizens generally. ealth, and will deliver an address in reference to his visit to Rome at St. Joseph's church next Sunday. THR WIDOW OF EX-GOVERNOR R. ¥. W. ALLSTON, sister of the lamented J. L. Petigru, has opened a schoot for young ladies at the old family mansion on Meeting street. The building, which was struck some seventecn times during the siege by shells from Morris Island, has lately boen repaired by the assistance of her friends. The venerablo Alfred Huger, former Postmaster, in a communication to the Cuurier, recommends her example to other daughters of the State similarly situated. With such instructors the youth of South Carolina, he thinks, cannot fail to reach the highest point of excellence. DEBT POR SLAVES purchased before the war, it is now claimed by debtors, are null and void, or that they have been abrogated by the action of the United states. It is a serious question toa large number of creditors, the largest number of whom are Virgima traders, and who are pressing their claims. The question has beon brought to the attention of the Legislature, which, it is supposed, will act in the matter 80 .as to relieve debtors and pay the creditors a certain amount of hire or interest on bis money for the time the slave was in the possession of the debtor pre- vious to emancipation. Cuarteston, 8. C., Dec. 13, 1865. President Johnson's despatch to Governor Perry in- timating the relief of the latter in a few days of his gubernatorial office and the probable early admission of the State, has given intense satisfaction. Scarcely a doubt is entertained of a favorable report by the com- mittee of fifteen for the admission of the representatives of such States as have adopted the constitutional amend- ment, As to the war debt, it is hoped that will be quietly passed over by the government. In reply to Governor Perry that no organic declaration in relation to the debt can be made, in consequence of the adjournment of the Convention, Secretary Seward advises an official ox- pression of the repudiation by the Legislature. Such an expression against the almost universal feeling and sentiment of the people is hardly probable. It will not be given uuless forced.

Yesterday I had the honor of receiving tho following | communication from Mr. Seward through the mail :— Darawiment oF STATE, | Wasuunaiox, Nov. 30, 1865. 5 ‘to his Excellency B. F. Parry, Provisioual Governor of the State of South Carolina :— m—I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your telegram of the 27th inst,, informing me that as the convention had been dissolved it was impossible to adopt the President's suggestion to repudiate the insur- gent debt, and to inform you that, while the objections which you urge to the adoption of that proceeding are of «serious nature, the President cannot refrain trom awaiting with interest an official expression upon that subject from the Legislature, TL Lave the honor to be, your obedient servant, WM.

In a previous letter I stated that General Howard, when here, informed Gover- wor Aiken there would be no difficulty in the restoration of hin Jevaseee plantation, but that contracts must be nade with the freedmen then upon tt; that the bureau would not undertake to eject them. The Governor urged that the government should remove them, most of th uegrove being strangers who bad settled there since war. Since that time Brevet Brigadier General Jas. C.

TO THE EDITOR OF THR UBRALD. Hasmura, Nev. 30, 1865. Tread with much interest your excellent description of the accident at the Wyoming Hotel om the Sth of November, How the box caught fire isa riddle to me; but I have ascertained that organic textures, charred by the action of sulphuric acid, will ignite nitro-gly- cerine, which may perhaps give a clue. Me other chemi- cal substance (and I have experimented on a great many) has been found to produce that effect. Mr. Ree cannot and Mr. Loehbr ought not to have been ignorant of the strength of-the stuf. As long as the latter had it ‘under his own pillow’ these could be no risk; but to leave it in: the hands of people ignorant of its character is sheer madness. Nitro-glycerine is a very. valuable explosive agent—perfectly harmless in the bands of experienced miners, but dangerous in the hands of “shirt pedlors;’’ excellent for blasting rocks, where it stands unrivalled, but: badly. applied tm the front of hotels and buildings im general. In contact with fire—as, for instance,» mateh or a red hot iron—it burns like an oil; but if heated to three hundred and sixty degrees it explodes. The quantity has been exaggerated. Mr. Ree had bought only ten pounds, of which, to Judge from the effeet produced, I presume part had leaked out. In Sweden nitro-glycerine is almost exelusively used for blasting, owing to its leaving no smoke or injurious gas whatever, and it being so very effective. It is, be- ides, far Toss dangerous than gunpowder, but its Com: parative safety should not be abused. ' Blasting oil will goon be an article of extensive use, and you will certainly contribute to save ‘many lives by warning the public not to store it in hotels, heat it in stoves as ou boilors; solder leaky tin canisters filled with oil (which has been’ done lately, pro- ducing a series of rey but. no explosion), or drink it for its sweet and savory taste, being poisonous, I find the Stockholm accident referred to in your esteemed paper, I myself thought at the time that it was owing to the explosion of nitro-glycerine, although we had reason to suspect that « chemical experiment, made by my brother, was the immediate cause, Three hundred pounds of blasting vil were stored close to the wail of a large building; that building. sustained almost injury, with theexception of broken panes, and there no excavation in the ground. Those whe have seen Wyoming affair will believe that three hundred pounds of oil could not have acted so “mildly.” Be- sides, vestiges of nitro-glycerine were found on timber walls at a considerable distance, and later experience hax convinced me that if the explosion had cauglit the oil T should not ‘off with a few. slight wounds and ve writing th now.
