feebly towards the Virginia springs also, and this attraction is likely to grow stronger since the railroad between here and Washington seems to be going into better hands than have hitherto controlled it. The Fenians on the eo We Tretbntly published telegraphic de- spatches from Ogdensburg, Malone and Cha- teaugay positively denouncing as ‘‘pure fab- trioations” the reports which have been circu- Usted in reference to alleged movements of Fenian war material and provisions along the frontier between Ogdensburg and St. Albans— government officers having ascertained those ‘reports to be false—and in reference to the concentration of Fenians, with arms and am- munition, at Malone and Chateaugay. » Atthe same time, however, we published one telegram from Montreal to the effect that Fenian preparations: are in progress in the neighborhood of Potsdam, and that many car- loads of arms were unloaded there; and an- other telegram from Portland, in Maine, giving ‘an account of the meeting of the State Fenian Convention at that place, when General O'Neil explained the war movement of which he is the recognized leader; men and money were pledged by the delegates and several officers, graduates of West Point, offered their services, Our impression is that all these Fenian movements and rumors of Fenian move- ments are adroitly contrived, on the eve of a Presidential campaign, to extract from somebody's pockets money, ‘‘the sinews of war,” whether war be waged with the aid of all the modern improved murderous imple- ments against which the Emperors of Russia and of the French have jointly protested, or with baskets of champagne and bottles of liquor at mysterious pleasure excursions and picnics, in imitation of General Fritz on his memorable campaign. The Fenian leaders, painfully aware that the pockets of poor cham- bermaids have at length been emptied, evi- dently cherish designs upon the pockets of the politicians. But the Fenians should be ad- vised to put no more trust in politicians than in princes. The wire-workers of all parties will need for their own purposes all the green- backs and all the whiskey which they can ob- tain. The Fenians must raise their own sup- plies. At present they might as well hope to get money and whiskey from the rings of Sat- urn as from any of the political “rings.” ‘The Proposed American ‘Line of Steamships. We are in favor of an American line of steamships to Europe and of American ship- building interests generally; but we protest against the enormous subsidy job now before the Senate of the United States. According to the provisions of the present bill the gov- ernment appropriates three millions of dollars, not to build six or seven new American steam- ships—a number that will be required to main- tain a daily mail line to Europe—but to buy up some old vessels that have already proven fail- ures in commercial enterprises. What Ameri- can commerce and erfterprise demand is the encouragement of Congress in constructing en- tirely new vessels upon those improved methods which the inventive genius of the age is con- stantly producing. If. steamship can be built more cheaply on the Clyde than on the Dela- ware or in New York or Boston, it is princi- pally owing to the fact that the tariff upon shipbuilding materials is improperly adjusted. What Congress should, therefore, do is to re- duce the tariff so that American shipbuilders can compete with foreigners, thereby not only encouraging home industry and native talent for naval architecture, but also protecting the public treasury from the rapacity of unscrupu- lous jobbers. We hope the Senate will put ‘a quietus upon the plundering bill now before it under the alluring guise of encouraging | American steamship building. | ' Nor Drap Yet.—Those terrific fire-eaters who used to make so much noise in the Cal- houn style before the war are coming out as fresh, as fierce, as contemptible and as impudent as ever in view of the assembling here of the Democratic Convention. These fellows saved their lives very carefully in bombproofs dur- ing the war, and not one of the number is now missing. They are all in the city, and all writing savagely Southern letters to their home admirers ifforming those people gen- erally of their own consequence. As much as a few absolute asses can do towards making the Democratic Convention offensive to the gountry these fellows will do.

Royal Review of the Volunteers—Brilliant Military Display. Lonpon, June 20, 1868, To-day being the thirty-first anniversary of the ac- cession of her Majesty Queen Victoria to the throne of England, having succeeded her uncle, the late King William the Fourth, on the 20th of June, 1837, it was observed as a holiday in this metropolis, and has also been honored by appropriate royal salutes throughout the dominion of the British government. The city of London was gaily decked with fagsand streamers, and the naval vessels, as well as the mer- cantile marine of all nations, have been profuse in a display of their colors. Immense crowds filled the streets, all intent Mainly upon witnessing the grand review of the volunteers by the Queen and royal family at Wind- sor, towards which point they have been wending their way on numerous special railway trains. The day was made the especial occasion for a grand review of the volunteer troops at Windsor Park, where for several days they have been arriving in large numbers.from diferent points. Salutes were fired from Windsor Castle and other Prominent governmental places at sunrige, noon and sunset, The barracks at Windsor were gayly festooned and decorated, and the troops were in full dress uni- form for the review. The weather was comparatively fine, although the Morning was threatening, which had the effect of preventing thousands from attending. With the exception of a few slight showers there was nothing to mar the splendor of the parade. The troops in line numbered twenty-seven thou- sand men of the different arms of the service, and while being reviewed by her Majesty and a brilliant suite of generals and officers of the Royal Household presented a scene of grandeur and enthusiasm sel- dom if ever before witnessed tm this country. After marching past and saluting the Queen and the royal cortege, the troops paid a marching salute to the Obelisk, commemorative of the grand jubilee which took place in 1820, and thén defiled over a pontoon bridge, laid across the Thames by the royal engineers, where they were dismissed. The throng at Windsor Park was immense, and the Queen and royal family were greeted by the pegple with marked enthusiasm. The day was concluded with festivities and re- anions by both civil and military organizations, GERMANY. Close of the Legislative Session—Speech of the King of Prussia. BERLIN, June 20, 1868, The sessions of the North German Parliament were formally closed yesterday. King William of Prussia made a short and pacific speech on the occasion.

The whiskey establishment of Foote, Nash & Co., plaintiffs in the suit, was ae fire. They were insured in the United States Fire by and Marine Insurance Company. The policy pro- vided that losses resulting from the explosion of ex- losive material would not be covered.

BROOKLYN ACADEMY OF Music.—The season of Engiish opera was brought to a close last evening by the Richings troupe, when Balfe's delightful “Bo- hemian Girl” was performed before a crowded and fashioriable assemblage. The cast was commend- able, and altogether the opera was satisfactorily pro- duced, Miss Richings sustained the rdte of Arline with her usual ability, and was through- out most cordially received.

Grand Duchess Tostée took a benefit at Selwyn's theatre, Boston, on Friday evening, and was ren- dered doubly happy by a thronged house and superb floral presentations. On Thursday evening last, while Mr, E. T. Good- rich, the champion skater in ‘“Hnmpty Dumpty," was imitating the ludicrous evolutions of a novice on ice, he fell and broke his arm, but notwithstand- ing the severe pain to which he was subjected, he managed to skate through the entire scene without any person in the audience becoming acquainted with his mishap. Mr. Frank Swift, “champion It i8 not enough that a young man or lady can draw accurately a head, a figure or a flower, or model in clay a limb or an animal, or write a melody that aoes not wound the ear by incorrectness; they may do thus much and yet evince only mechanical skill. But do the majority in this profession feel that in- spiration which Von Weber, the great German com- pe explained in a striking passage in his works? He said, “A beautiful landscape, a brilliant sunset or sunrise, a forest scene—everything, in short, he wit- nessed—presented itself to his soul in a musical form, in concords and discords.” Whatever he perceived resolved itself into music and thus be- came truly impressive to his soul, and this passage has always to the thoughtful contained the key to the mystery of inspiration. Such a perceptive ae ec il faculty must be unborn; it may be cultivated, but cannot be creaved or supplied by any process or assi- duity, So with the painter; and, in a word, the merely mechanical copyist of objects of nature, like the mere mechanical arranger of musical notes, may, in a low condition of public taste, enjoy a temporary success; but his name will never live—it will never be T anaan with those of the Angelos and the Ra- phaels. But enough of this, only adding it is well worth remembering by those interested, it remains to be told that the winter exhibition of the Academy will commence about the middie of November and continue till the 4th of March, differing in some im- portant particulars relating to the eligibility of original works and their mode of withdrawal, &c. Gossip About Art and Artists. The exhibition at the National Academy of Design attracted yesterday a large number of visitors, not- withstanding the neat outside and inside of the Venetian building which decorates the corner of Fourth avenue and Twenty-third street. It is a pity that some method cannot be devised for secaring the better ventilation of the galleries, The general final conclusion of the public as to the exhibition appears to. be, on the whole, favorable, although few large works and still fewer great ones have been discovered in it, Our artists have evinced by it that their scope of vision is widening and includes a greater variety of subjects than formerly. The landscapes of Gifford have won higher popularity than any other pictures in the collection, Even the blue monstrosity which has brought upon Hennessy the wrath and the ridi- cule of the critics, possesses features that indicate on skater’’ of this city, will for the present take Mr, Goodrich’s place in “‘Humpty Dumpty.’’ At a recent amateur dramatic entertainment at Austin, Texas, a humming bird entered the hall and hovered persistently over the flowers which a young lady wore in her bonnet. Poor foolish bird, he thought them genuine blossoms. Senorita Filomeno, a beautiful Chilean girl fourteen ie old, has been giving concerts at St. Louis for wo weeks and has created a perfect furor among the lovers of music in that city. Her performances nee piano and violin are pronounced won- erful. Butler is tobe put upon the stage. The principat scene in a forthcoming burlesque of ‘“Orphée aux Enfers,”” written by Mr. Kenward Philp, is a high court of impeachment in Hades, the presiding genius of which is Pluto disguised as Butler, or Butler dis- guised as Pluto—it comes to the same hideous distor- tion in the end. But what actor can portray this delightful character, now that the late lamented Ried is no more? Miss Emily Melville is playing Pocahontas at the Varieties theatre, New Orleans. The people there don’t think her equal in that particular rd/e to Mrs. John Wood. Apropos of New Orleans, we have already noticed the fact that Jennie Engle, § young lady whose vocal abilities the Bowery boys have often severely criti- cized, was driving the creoles wild with delight by her “exquisite singing.” The New Orieans critica have at length become perfectly crazed over her. Listen to them as they an, praises:—‘‘Her songs are as sweet and beautiful as ever trilled from a thrush or carry.” ‘Many were the faces in the large ‘audience that took a vivid glow as the rich flexible voice rose and fell burdened with melody.”’ The London Orchestra devotes a half column to an obituary notice of the “‘Cynocephalus.”” Mr. Sims Reeves is still perambulat through England bewitching the natives with his singing.
