WASHINGTON. THE PHILADELPHIA SENSATION DESPATCH The President Pronounces it False from Beginuing to End. Scheming Politicians Charged with Its Paternity. ‘A NEW FRENCH COPYRIGHT LAW. do. &e. &e, Wasmxaton, Oct, 11, 1866. ‘The Last Philadelphia Canard. During to-day many inquiries by telegraph were ro- sosived in thiscity asking whether there was any trath in the Washington despatch to the Philadelphia Ledger, relative to the President, the Attorney General and Con- sgreas. On the despatch being read to the President to- dey, he pronounced it false from beginning to end. At- torney General Stanbery made an equally positive de- mul, The canard is reported to have originated with certain scheming politicians to bear unfavorably upon ‘the approaching election in New York. The city was flooded with rumors concerning the despatch, and it was ‘not until a late hour in the day that reliable information on the subject could be procured. There is no doubt ‘(that the President is ardently disposed to pursue a con- Olliatory course, and sensational despatches like the one that has created so much stir should be distrusted by “honest people al! over the country.

Conversions of the séVen-thirly notes falling due August, 1867, into five-twenties continue to be made to the Treasury Department at the rate of something loss than $4,000,000 per week. There aro now outstanding about $270,000,000 of this issue of seven-thirties. These notes, owing to the immense clerical labor involved in their examination, can be redcemed by the department at only about the average rate of $5,000,000 per week if presented ag rapidly as they could be disposed of. Par- ties holding seven-thirty notes of the above issue will therefore do well to forward them to the Treasury for Conversion into five-twenties as soon as possible, as here- after, incase of the presentation of large quantities near the period of the full maturity of the notes, much delay will ensue before the bonds in conversion can be fur- nished by the department.

Le Muitre de Chapelle at the Theatre Fran- cain. In spite of the threatening appesrance of the weather Jaat evening there was a pretty large and a truly fashion. able audience at the Thédtre Frangais on the occasion of the second night of the epéra comique. Le Maitre de Chapelle, an amusing and clever trifle in one act, by the celebrated sr er eRe t: only three waa BW me, Ws hom, thé baritons Bf Messrs. Juignet & Drivet's troupe made his débet and sehiéved a triumph of the most unequivocal kind. He possesses a baritone voice of rare quality, powerful, bell like, and modulated to give color to every expression of sentiment, and trained in the most finished and perfect manner, We have had no baritone before him who can at all be com- pared to him, and his impersonation of the old Kap- pelmeister was equal to his singing. The rdle wasa very” trying one, and in the hands of any but an accomplished artist would have been an utter failure, There are three characters in the opera—Barnabe, maitre de chapelle; Benetto, bis nephew, and Gertrude, his servant. The scene is laid in a town in Germany auring the wars of Napoleon. There is hardly any plot worth while speaking of, as the play is intended only to illustrate the peculiarities and the every day life of the old Kappel- moister, and what is strange in an Italian operatic com- Poser, to burlesque ytalian Opera. Gertrude, who was eharmingly represented by Mile. Laurentes, frightens both the uncle and nephew almost out of their wits by informing them that the French are entering the town ; and again, pitying their condition of mortal terror, re- agsures them by stating that the alarming sunounce- ment was only a joke on her part, Barnabe then commences a rehearsal of his latest composition, which is grand Italian opera. In this M. Wilhem was excel- lent. His comic directions to the orchestra and imita- tions of the various instruments, and his thoroughly artistic rendering of a grand scena and aria drew down the house in the moet complete sense of the word. Even in the middle of the long and fatiguing rehearsal of his grand opera, most of which he went through unassisted, he could hardly pause to take breath without being greeted with a tumult of applause. He summoned Gertrude after some time to represent the bero- ine in the aforesaid grand opera, to which she ‘Vory reluctantly and with many expressions of appio- bation and intense disgust, consented. Her light, pleas- ing voice appeared to even advantage thap in Les Motstpletatres, fd her arch, naive und coquettish manner made her a deserving participant in the applause that was lavished on her master. This work, the only French Opera composed by Paér, was worthy of tho commendations bestowed upon it by Napoleon, and it is thoroughly enjoyable. M. Edgard had little to do or sing as Benetto, and he doserves praiso for making go myob of a titling part. All the artists introduced so far im opera com: have een acceptable, ffid many of them aré already favor. idea with the public, The audiouco that attended the Hqeuch theatre last evenitf Was svideutty critical si: disor! Winating, and the applause was, therefore, genuine. M. Predig°™ conducted the orchestra with skill and suc- cess, and that ‘mportant feature in the opera was fauit- less. The opera WO8 preceded by Le Mari de la Veuw, a comedy if Oné act, im which MM. Scribot and Camel and Milles, Saunior, Carmel and Thorey made their appearance. They were all four called before the curtain at the close of the comedy, The vaudeville also, La consigne est de ronfler, which succeeded the opera, was received with like ox- pressions of approbation’ and enjoyment. The success. which has attended the opening mights of Messrs, Juignet & Drivet’s company incontestibly #hows that with such artists, uch an orchestra and such a chorus, we may confidently look forward to brilliant season of opera comique, comedy and vaudeville. Halevy'’s excel- lent and picturesque work, Les Mousquetaires de la Reine, will be repeated on Saturday night. THEATRICAL. Stadt Theatre. It is a little singular that the first works of the great master minds of Germany—Goethe’s “Sorrows of Werther” and Schiller’s “‘Robbers”’—should at the time of their appearance have made it fash- ionable among the young men of that country to indulge in suicide and highway robbery. It ie more singular that the ‘Robbers’’—which, as Contarini Fleming’s father told him of bis earliest produc- tion, belongs to the worst of the German school— should retain its place upon the stage, and be a favorite. Immature and morbid as the play ts, it is saved by the genius of Schiller, and is so full of dramatic power and effective situation that it continues to be a stock piece. James Anderson, if we remember rightly, made the play conspicuous here by his representation of Charles de Moor ; and Dawison will render it remarkable by hie excellent rendering of Francis, The latter character is not strik- ing nor of a kind to excite sympathy save through artistic considerations; but it furnishes scope for the best of any living actor. It me part like tas Ter iy cecelty toon ill done in this country that’ many have associated po werty of impersonation with the character and grown to believe it deficient as "trent present last evening the any such were must ave been effectually removed. Mr. ison made hus second appearance a8 Charies de Mose before a or Berlin. Mr, Dawison's characteristics are natoralness, quiet finish and suggestiveness—particularly the Inst; for he appeals almost as much to the imagination ‘as to the senses, and thereby proves that he belongs in the front rank of artista. He was called out in the last four acts, and in tho fifth was compelled to make his three times successively in aaswer to the el and entousiastic demauds of the audience. His interview with Herrmann, whon the latter repents ‘and leaves him, and the scene in which be i tortured by remorse, and the robber bend assault the castle and drag him before their chief, were admirably represented. His , his conscience, his to Heaven, his desire yet fear to die by bis own band, and his fluctuations betwoen hope of escape and utter despair were given as we have rarely seen them on the stage. We have witnessed no such acting, be one or tee ex. ti for a number of years, and we are only too te 70 place our Miender chaplet on his richly de- brow. was much betterthan at the firet ntation the play—on the whole, an impro' ment upon the acting at most of the Broadway estabiis! ments, Francis ) was too tame before, but inst evening he overacted at times; albeit his rending was very good, and he sbared the applause with the eminent artist be assisted. His gesticulation when he discovered his father in the cave was too much like an imitation of ag windmill to be acceptable, and he would have been more effective had he ranted less, especially in that seene. Amelia (Miss Rhode) was a trifle too lackadalsal- now and tl though perhaps Schiller \s to blame for that, and tthe main rendered the extrav! ‘aod entirerly romantic woman, whore love made « and utthroat a shining angel, quite to the aatuefection of the audience. Maximi! (Sohenidt) was Generving of com: mendation, and Herrmann (Lange) and Koller (Klein) were . Of course Dawison was the of attraction, and certainly was appreciated by the highly appreciative throng. He wants volume of voice, naar in the lower and lacks—what nearly ail of bis countrymen —eniire @ase and grace But those are contre spots on the sun which we forget in the radiance of the luminary.

Late Perilous Voyage of the Schooner Mary MeKee—A Fall and Thrilling Description ot Her Exciting and Dangerous Sea Expe- riences—Captain of a Steamer whe W: for Money and Won’t Work Without It and One ef a Diferent Stripe—The English Steamer Queen Victoria. Fortress Moxnor, Oct. 10, 1866, My telegram of last evening of necessity gave buts Meagre outline of the perilous experiences in the late gale of the thrée-masted schooner Mary McKee, arriving here yesterday. Calling to-day upon Captain McKee on board the schooner has placed me in possession of all the additional particulars, as also placed it in my power to make ao important correction. This cor. rection, although the error hae already been counteracted in the Herato columns by what happily proved to be more sure intelligence, has reference to the misstatement that the Mary McKee collided with the steamer North Star, aod parted with the latter in a disabled condition. As now weil known, the North Star waa not then at sea, and the steamer thus anpleasantly encountered and parted with was the Santiago do Cuba, since then safely arrived in New York. Captain McKee most positively aemed the steamer as the North Star, the second mate corroborat- ing the statement, and thus the entry was made on the ship's logbook. ‘The fact is there was so much excite. ment at the time, and the matter of personal safety so emphatically the absorbing consideration, that no time waa taken to carefully scrutinize the steamer’s name. Captain McKee only discovered his error by reading the account of the affair given in the Heasto on the arrival of the Santiago de Cuba at New York, He is happy, however, as very naturally may be supposed under the circumstances, to present a palpable and satisfactory refutation of the plausible presumption of the loss of tis ship and himeelf and crew. is everything connected with the late storm—and consioly, hom ail accounts and the serious disasters ac companying it, ope of the severest torms on record porersses a degree of interest that even the excitement of political contests and rapid striking off of official heads in every direction by the executive guillotine cannot overshadow, I will proceed with tory of the Mary MoKee's late voyage and marvel escapes from the ils of the sea. Fhe left New York on the 27th ult. for labile, with assorted cargo, It war the ship's first voy age. She had just been built, her timoers were of the best oak, pew sails fluttered from ber masts, experienced sailors comprised the crew list, and her captain and owner was & man long and tried experience, having been a seafaring man from his youth up. Every confide was felt in the ship's fact had it not been for there have been lost. Her first ft days at sea passed very agreenbly. She made an exe Jent run, and each day strengthened the pride all felt in her, On October 2 the wind blew hard, with a heavy sea but the veseel stood up under the breeze with proudly defiant air and rode over the waves with the grace and onse of a wild sea bird. During the night, the wind ypcreased and the vext morning it rwept over the now hearing sea with cncontrolied fury—« giant in its wrath. Sho lost her jibboom, and tt became necessary to cut y her entire head gear to save the vewsel. The ses carried away her Jibboom also started her contre house, awept away her water casks and buried over the balwarks everything movable on deck. At thiv time the nearest land was Abarco, some two hundred m lew distant. About ten o'clock im the forenoon the wind shifted from the northeast, the direction it had been blowing from the outeet of the gale, to the reverne print of the compass, Gradually the wind subsided until a 1n0om searce @ breath of air Was etirring; i proved only c outburst of the fea going qualitier, and she must, too, inevitabt, ee bee hour the wind broke out im the north north weet hurricane, The mad god of the wind = Boon the sea was crowned with white z . ial i 3 : fr Fe ; vi oe a wave brought him back again, a third sea waahed over rd the second mate, aed by the tame wondrous miracle that saved the fret mate he too wes deshed upon the ‘a deck an if ia like jg ane) aporming taking bie life Ali occurred in much quicker time than it tukes me to write.

Aa it was, it was impossible for jer to render the schooner the assistance requred, She drifted away with the union down in th) direction of a large schooner some ten miles to the seuthward. Thus this hope was cut Ld Rot aa the ceptain ner bis mea gave up to ir. In com temo struggle and peril the reat of this day passed and aiother sleepless and toiling night. On the morning of the 6th another steamer was seen. With drifting the changes of the wind (although the captan kept watch of his course and latitude and longi: tude) the schooner was now some two hundred and sixty niles from Charleston and about equi-distant from Cape Hatteras. At sight Of this second steamer signals of dutreas were again hoisted. The steamer bore upon hem and proved to be the Haze, from New York for jeston. McKee explained to the captain of the Haze his condition and asked to be taken in tow. “Tage you in tow,” said the in of the Haze, ‘‘and brit rfod to Charleaton, Certainly I will do it, but es $20,000 for the job.”” s "t you think that high? and besides I am dia- Pom mildly interrogated and expostulated Captain icKee “Nota bit of it, I ea _ take yon fora ava hye ined the Captain of the Haze, “But you won" Soot The money will come out of the goods and the umerwriters.”” ‘Thew was no help for Captain McKee. The safety of his vewel and lives of himself and crew were at stake. He accepted the proffer, and threw out bis hawser to the steam. Through some mismanagement the hawser got foul of the steamer's and thereu away vent the Hage. made no farther attempt to save oe schooner, C ee Sahgoee, at this time there was another veasel in sig! Before the Haze came up the wind bad commenced moderiting and the sea to grow smoother. * An hour afterwards it was comparatively calm, except the heavy ground swell su ling the storm’s violence. Signals of distress were, however, still kept flying, Another twenty-four hours samy Mig much more tranquilly than the hours previous. e schooner now had arrived within twenty-four miles of Hatteras. A third steamer showed itself—the from Charleston for New York. It required no terms of entreaty or stipulations of recompense to arrange with the captain of the Sara- gossa, He said he would do the best he could for them, and at once proceeded to do so, Taking the schoover in tow, he brought her in as alrendy kuown, Such unsel- fish’ and handsome conduct deserves all possible publi- city, To-day Captain McKee undertook to get bis vessel towed to Norfolk for repairs, by the tug Bertie; but the tug broke down, and the schoouer now lies at anchor off Sewall’s Point. ' He hopes to get the repairs doue at tha Portemouth Navy Yard. ‘THE DIRASTHR TO THE as or A word of explanation is due for the me’, tions lame given horetorore of ‘tho disaster ‘othe pritteh steamer Victoria, None of the creW or passengers of the bad steamer sto} here.
