The steamer for Europe takes out $2,280,000 in silver. An envoy of Negrete and Canales pronounced re- cently at Tampico in favor of Santa Anna, with a regency, but they were mobbed. At Vera Cruz the merchants resist the payment of eight and three-quarters per cent export duty on silver.

CUBA. A Doubtfal Report About the See of Havana— Projected Tour of Lersandi to the Interior. Havana, April 18, 1868, A new Bishop has been appointed for the diocese of Havana.

ABYSSINIA. General Napier in Want of Cash—ProviSing for a “Rainy Day.” LONDON, April 19, 1868, General Napier, in command of the Abyssinian expedition, in his last dispatch, requests that a heavy remittance of treasure for the expenses of the army be sent him before the rainy season sets in, as he anticipates that during that season his communi- cation with the sea coast will be frequently, if not wholly, interrupted, {4 dry and a rainy season are experienced with great regularity in Abyssinia. The rainy season extends from May to September, and with the excep- tion of a few showers in the beginning of November little more rain falls during the year. The tempera- ture of the highlands is mild, but at great elevations the cold is very severe. Malaria, which induces the most fatal inflammatory fevers, prevails in the val- Jeys during the rainy season, and it is almost certain death to sicep in some portions of the low districts during its visitation; the eatire populations of villa- ges ascending to the mountains at such times to escape it.) GERMANY. Importaut Parliamentary Movemeut=Neutral Naval Rights in War Time. BERLIN, April 19, 1868, The Parliament of the North German Confedera- tion has adopted a resolution instructing Count Von Bismarck to enter into negotiations with foreign Powers for the purpose of establishing by treaty the absolute neutrality of private property at sea during time of war. GEORGIA. ‘The ‘Election To-day—Reported Frauds in the Registration—Precantions Taken by the Military to Preserve Order. Avaveta, April 19, 1868. The election in Georgia commences to-morrow. The interest is very intense and both parties are equally confident. Reports from Columbus state that frauds have been discovered in the registration, and charges have been preferred against Hulbert, the chief registrar in the State. A large meeting was addressed here last night by derhocratic speakers. Ample precaution has been taken by General Meade to preserve order during the progress of the election, troops having been sent to al! tmportant points for this purpose. The heavy rains continue. MISSOURI. . Horrible Spectacle in the River Below St. Louls—Fifty Bodies of Cholera Victims Affoat in Their Coffins. Sr. Lovuts, April 19, 1868. A ghastly spectacle was presented in the river be- low tne city yesterday. During the cholera season last summer a large number of the bodies of "the victims of the epidemic were buried by the city on Arsenal Island, a short distance below the city. The river has been for some time gradually wearing the island away, and yesterday the water reached a trench in which bodies were buried, arid washed some fifty or more coffins out, which floated down the stream. Twenty-four have been recovered and measures have been taken to secure the remainder. Those on the island will also be protected or removed to a place of safety. Revenue Cases in the St. Louis Courte—Fail- ure of a Banking House. St. Louis, April 19, 1868. Over a dozen cases are now before the United States Circuit Court for manufacturing tobacco or distilling liquor in violation of the Revenue law. The banking house of Gaylord, Leavenworth & Co., in this city, have suspended payment. They express @ confident belief that they will be able to resume business in a few days. KENTUCKY. The Police Dificalty in Louisville—Aun Iseue to be Reached Early. LOUISVILLE, April 19, 1868. The pdlice diMculty will undoubtedly be brought to an iasue to-morrow. Thenew Police Commission- ers have received their commissions and already sworn in the majority of their force. To-morrow ‘they will demand from the Mayor a surrender of the stations and the withdrawal of the old force. "OHIO. The Hollywood-Keating Fight—Keating Still in Jail. CrNcINNaTI, April 19, 1868. Nothing new in regard to the Hollywood-Keating fight has as yet developed itself. Keating is still in jail, and will have to remain there until to-morrow morning at least, if not longer. Hollywood, who is out on bail, has crossed the river into Kentucky. The fight may possibly take place toward the close of the week. Nothing, however, has yet been definitely settled. THE PLAINS. The Peace Commissioners Successfal—Spetted Tail Sent to Recover Stolen Goods. Sr. Lovts, April 19, 1868. A despatch from Omaha states that the latest counts from Laramie say that the Peace Commis- sioners have been successfal so far. The Cheyenne Argus of yesterday says the Com- missioners had sent Spotted Tail and thirty warriors on an expedition to recover the property stolen by some of Red Clond’s band lately. Doubts are enter- tained whether anything will be accomplished or Spotted Tail return. PENNSYLVANIA. Proposed Rowing Match for the Champion- ship. PrrrsBura, April 19, 1868.

At Niblo’s the “White Fawn,” remodelied, with all its new attractions, including the ballet & la milutaire and Mile. Invernezail, remains upon the stage, of course, because nobody wants to get rid of it and because it pays the managers, Wallack gives us this evening Tom Taylor's play, “Henry Dunbar,” with all his fine compgny, save himself, in the cast. For the rest of the week we are to have the “Rent Day’ and the “Honeymoon,” with a “Rosedale” matinée on Saturday. The sparkling burlesque of “Paris and Helen,” 80 neatly done by the three sprightly sisters Worrell, continues to draw largely at the New York theatre, and is not at all likely to be soon removed from the stage, Mr. and Mrs, Barney Williams keep ‘The Fairy Circle” in operation all this week at the Broadway, diversified nightly by such additions as “In and Out of Place,” and the laughable Yankee delineations in which Mrs. Williams has no equal. On Friday Bar- ney takes his benefit, appearing in three pieces. The “Connie Soogah”’ is in rehearsal. 4 Fraulein Fanny Janauschek announces four fare- ‘well performances in German drama at the Academy of Music, commencing on Wednesday evening with Elizabeth and Phedra, two characters new to her. Fr, Janauschek is now compieting a provincial tour, and when the metropolitan season at the Academy is finished she will depart for Europe. Fox’s pantomime, ‘‘Humpty Dumpty,” gives prom- ise that it will fight it out on that line in the Olympic theatre all summer. The patronage of the Easter holidays has not been exhausted with Easter week. Standing room, however, can still be had by its numerous admirers. At the Bowery Mr. Boniface appears to-night as Jack Cade—a character which is decidedly “taking” at the east side. Boniface isa popular actor in this section. Macbeth and Jack Sheppard—the two his- torical chiefs of midnight murder and successful housebreaking—will follow the Kentish rebei during the week. The primo equestrian, Cynocephalus, who rides like a Thracian horseman and turns somersaults like a Hanlon Brother, is the chief attraction at the New York Circus. Acrobatic feats of marvellous skill, making one very nervous to look at, and very glad when they are over, together with the usual daring but not dangerous scenes of horsemanship, because saw dust and tan dust do not hurt a bit, make up the programme of the Circus, sandwiched by the fun, not always stale, of two capital clowns, ‘The English humorist enters his third week at the Theatre Comique. Professor Hilton, a Scotch ven- triloquist, is announced also for this evening. The final readings of Mra. Fanny A, Kemble com- mence at Steinway Hall to-morrow (Tuesday) even- ing, with “King Henry the Fifth.” Friday evening and the matinées of Wednesday and Saturday will complete the week’s programme. Preparations for the coming season of Ristori at the French theatre, beginning May 2, are actively progressing under Mr. Grau’s management. Mr. W. J. Hill, the tenor, announces a concert at Irving Hall for Wednesday evening. The artists on the occasion are Mra. Jenny Kempton, Mlle. Toedt, Messrs. Pease, E. Hoffman, Beckett, Crane and Miss Jennie E, Bull. Wm. Dressler will conduct. The event of the week at Pike’s Opera House is the grand Bal d’Opera this evening. The Panorama of the War at the hall on Broadway is still open and attracts large audiences, The minstrels present their usual attractive bills for the week. The favorite pieces at Kelly & Leon's, the San Francisco Hall, Tony Pastor’s, and Hooley’s Brooklyn House are still drawing well, while occa- sional additions to the fun, dancing and music make more people laugh than ever. Dickens’ last reading to-night at Steinway Hall— the “Ohristmas Carol ” and the Pickwick Trial. The great European circus is announced to appear for two Weeks at the corner of Broadway and Thirty- fourth street, commencing to-day. The Philharmonic Society gave ite sixth and last con- cert of the season at the Academy of Music on Saturday night. The house was densely crowded. The pro- gramme included Schumann’s symphony No. 1, in B flat; selections from Mendelssohn's music to the “‘Mid- summer Night’s Dream," and the overture to “Der Freyschutz,” by the orchestra, consisting of a hnp- dred performers, skilfully directed by Carl Bergman. The Arion Society contributed the vocal part, sing- ing Viet’s ‘King in Thule,” Kinkel’s “Farewell” and the famous “Roman Triumph’ by Max Bruch, the latter with a fine orchestral accompaniment. Theo- dore Thomas played a concerto of Beethoven for the violin exquisitely, with an accompaniment that could hardly be excelled. It was pleasant to see so large an audience appreciating such a musical feast as the Philharmonic Society spread before them Saturd- day night. In these days, when the sensational drama, and sensations which are less dramatic than demoralizing, appear to carry the public taste by storm, it is refreshing to find that we have an element in our midst which enjoyeth refining and intellectual pleasures. The second grand Easter concert took place at Steinway Hall with the co-operation of the following artists:—J. N, Pattison, pianist; Madame Gazzaniga, prima donna; George Morgan, organist; G. F, Hall, basso, and Signor Ardarani, baritone. The pro- gramme comprised selections from Handel, Ricci, Donizetti, Rossini, A. Wood and Pattison. This pro- gramme was very creditably carried out in the lead- ing pieces, and the orgen and piano selections in particular were worthily rendered. The audience was rather slim in numbers, but nevertheless en- thusiastic, The “White Fawn” has begn prodnced at the Na- tional, Cincinnati, with great success. Zoe played the “French Spy” at New Bedford last Wednesday. “La Grande Duchesse” waa given in Chicago on the 16th by the New Orleans troupe. Lambele was ihe Altesse, and according to the papers she is not suited for the part, It may be therefore safely con- clnded that Tostée has no rival in the Lake city. Mr. W. A. Chapman resumes the stage manage- ment of the Walnut street theatré next season. Mr. 4. B. Roberts, the present manager, retires, and takes @ travelling dramatic company out for a brief tour. Miss EMe Germon will leave Philadelphia for New York after the close of the present season. ‘The companies for the diferent theatres in Phila- delphia have all been made up for next season. A grana concert took piace at the Tabernacie, Jersey City, on Thursday, at which Madame Parepa- Rosa, Car! Rosa, J, N. Pattison, William Berge, Sig- nor Randolfi and G, W. Colby assisted. The hall was pretty well filled, despite the horrible condition of the weather, and the artists were received in the most enthusiastic manner, Gounod’s Ave Maria, with organ, violin piano accompaniment, was the great featare of an unusually attractive programme.

The brilliant sun and soft, balmy air of Saturday succeeded in drawing to the classic halls of the Academy of Design a large number of visitors. The fair women of New York turned out in force on the first Saturday of the spring exhibition; and the ladies could have no better place than the Academy in which to display their Easter clothing. The large rooms, the many pictures and the handsome dresses combined to form an ensembie as striking as beau- tiful, ‘The present exhibition is a decided improvement upon the one of last year, There are few large plc- tures, and thus not only is an opportunity given to modest merit, but space is not monopolized by a few men. Another very pleasing feature in the exhibition is the absence of those por- traits which, like Charles Lamb’s jokes, were good—in the way of entertainment—because they were so bad, The few portraits on the walls, with one or two exceptions discreetly hung almost out of sight, are fine exponents of this nobie branch of painting. Quitea number of some of our most prominent artists are conspicuous only by not being represented. This has made the collection inte- resting by giving space to works by. young and com- paratively unknown painters, From the older men we should have known what to expect; but’ there is a refreshing variety among the minor artists which is agreeable if not sometimes amusing. Many of the pictures by the new men, aléhough very poor, intrinsically, yet give signs of promise, and lead us toexpect speedy and valuable accessions to the ranks of those “‘whom Genius calla her own.” The defect is, these works arise mainly from drawing, the majority of the pictures showing a good eye for color and strong handling. With careful attention and earnest study many of those artists who are now deservedly laughed at would, in a short time, become eminent brothers of the brush. In @ notice like the present tt is impossible to give a critical digest of all the pictures; we shall, there- fore, content ourselves for the nonce with some of the most noticeable. Very attractive paintings are the two companion pieces by Mr. W. H. Beard, entitled severally, “Evening on the Prairie” and “Morning on the Prairie.” In the former is depicted troup of sandhill cranes busily searching on the marshy ground for food; dim twilight is stealing over the picture, and in the background are seen the last faint gleams of the setting sun. In the other, “Morning,” the picturesque birds are heavily rising and taking flight “to fresh felds and pastures new.” The moist ground and quiet water, on which are sleeping pond lilies, are lit up by the ascending sun. The light trickles through the morning mist and a brilliant band stretches above it. The atmos- ree effect in both of these pieces is fine, particu. larly 60 in the ‘Morning,’ the delicate gradations of color in the midst being extremely well rendered. The warmth and heat of the departed day are alsq well given in the “Evening.” Mr. Gignoux sends but one pening. It is called “Lake in the Wilderness,” and is replete with that soft, tender warmth for which the produotions of his pencil are so well known. A smooth sheet of water occupies the centre; at the back curve mountains and to the right are stately nodding pines. The mist is slowly lifting from the mountains and its curling forms sre reflected in the water below, ‘the sun, shorn of his beams, looks horizontal through the misty air.” The workmanship of the patnting Is soft and delicate, fully in accordance with the conception of the subject. The details and minor points are well worked up and the light effect aat ‘Mr, Gignoux 16 a skilful artist, and, as this picture tells, @ successful student of nature in her most and beautiful mood: 8, Mr. McEntee exhibits three pictures—“ The Ruin,” “an Autumnal Afternoon”? and “Lake Placid" in — Adirondack Mountain.
