LONDON, Oct. 8, 1868. Right tion. Benjamin Disraeli, Prime Minister, has issued an address to his constituents in Bucking- hamshire. He recites in the usual way the course pursued by the Ministry on the questions of the Reform act, the national finances, the relations existing between England and foreign Powers and the triumphant termination of the Abyssinian war. He comments at considerable length on the Church reform project, gives its history and recounts his objections thereto, He holds that the Ministry had @ right to expect that the whigs woulda wait and learn the temper of the new Par- liament on that question before pressing its consideration; but their leaders saw fit to bring be- fore the House of Commons, at the very last moment, measure severing the Church and State—for the isestablishment of the Irish Church meant and in- cluded that. It involved also the stirring up of additional rancor and bitterness in Ireland. It would unsettle property and make confiscation con- tagiows; and, worse than all, it would give England pi to Popery and practically to the rule of a foreign wer, Mr, FRANCE.

The announcement that Binckley had been aum- moned by the Retrenchinent Committee to appear before them and unbosom himself of all the good Points he holds against the revenue defrauding om- cials »n4 the whiskey ring led hfs friends here, who are watching closely the progress of the case, into the impression that he had to escape from Scylla only to fall into Charybdis. Some who are aware of the great strength of much of the evidence in the hands of the prosecution feared that he would meet with certain defeat if obliged to testify before the self- constituted Congressional committee. Informa. tion received here since the issue of the summons from the committee iméicates that the Attorney-General will advise Mr. Binekiey to disclose nothing in the examination before the committee that in his opinion will have a tendency te injure the cause of the government. It is understood that Binckley, fortified by such legal counsel, wil! decline to lay before the: committee the documentary evt- dence in his possession, or to disclose anything cal- culated to retard the course of justice, or defeat the objects of the investigation. Health of General Hancock. A surgeon's certificate has been received at the War Department from Major General Hancock stat- | ing that his condition is such that he will be unable to travel for thirty days. It is believed, however, that the General will make an effort to get here be- fore the expiration of a month, as General Dyer is anxious for the court to convene, and General Han- cock having received permission from the President to remove his headquarters to New York city, is de- sirous to move as soon as possible, The Camilla Riote—A False Report Denied. A report was circulated here last evening and was telegraphed to several of the Nortnern papers, that General Howarf, Commissioner of the Freedmen’s Bureau, had received the official report of General Sibley on the riot at Camilla, Ga., on Tuesday last, but refused to give it for publication; and it was stated that he so refused because the report fixed the whole blame of exciting the riot upon the armed band of negroes that entered the town to escort @ radical stump speaker and would therefore act injuriously upon the interests of the republican party. There is nota syllable of truth 1m the whole statement. General Howard emphati- cally denies having received any report from Georgia since the brief account given by Major Howard a day ortwo after the riot, and he promised that when General Sibley’s report did come to hand the press should have it, no matter which political party it might damage. Collector Smythe at the White House. Collector Smythe had an interview with the Presi- dent to-day on matters connected with the reduction of the force of oMcials in the New York Custom House.

In June last Postmaster Generdl Randall adver- tised for proposals for furnishing the government with postage stamps for aterm of years, to be sub- mitted for consideration in July, reserving the right to decide which bid, in its practical results, may be most to the interest of the Department, hav- ing reference to the style of the work, secu- rity, &c., a3 well as’ to the terms, and also to reject any and all bids, if in his judgment the interests of the Department require it. The committee of experts whom he appointed having decided in favor of the National Bank Note Com- pany, of New York, the Postmaster General to-day awarded the contract to that company, aithough their terms were not quite as low as those proposed by the other companies.

L. Davenport concluded his engagement at the Park theatre, Brooklyn, last evening in the play of “Damon and Pythias” and the time honored nautical arama of “Black-Eyed Susan.’? As Damon he was eminently successful in the opinion of the unusually large audi- ence, who vented their admiration in frequent plaud- its and by calling him twice before the curtain, On the last occasion he was compelled to make them @ speech, wherein he thanked them for their appreciation and then took leave of them. He ex- hibited his versatile powers by playing the part of William in the after; representation not less successful with the audience, @ members of the company faithfully discharged their duties in the supporting characters of both plays. The scenery in the Park has been vastly improved. The hosta; scene and the villa of on were particularly bel constructed.

J. Hill, tenor; Miss Matilda Toedt, violinist; Mr. Davis, basso, and Mr. G. W. Colby, conductor. The programme was of a miscellaneous charac- ter, comprising both classical and salon pieces, and was in general very well ren- dered, Mr. Sanderson’s peculiar facuity in octave playing, in which he is unrivalled, was shown to ad- vantage at this concert. ‘The beautiful quartet from Rigoletto in mye org Was given with an colat and ‘briltiancy which did {ull justice to the great Italian composer, Mr, Sanderson hasan unrivalled method of his own, which in point of digital dexterity and clearness cannot be excelled, and ia this aa in his other characteristic pieces he displayed his talents to the utmost advantage.

DopwortH HaLt.—The audience that greeted Signor Blitz’s appearance last night at Dodworth Hall was more select than humorous, as for some unexplatned reason people who find suficient amuse- ment in parlor entertainments on other evenings prefer going to the theatre on Saturday nights. However, although the magical Blitz had only a limited audience to astonish, he gave entire satisfac- tion and was loudly applauded. Some of his tllu- sions are really wonderful, especially that of the Sphinx, which, perhaps, has not been surpassed as @ feat of magic by any illusionist known to fame, ‘There are many very astonishing and amusing feats in Signor Blita’s entertainment, which will well re- pay a visit. Musical and Theatrical Notes. Mrs. Scott-Siddons, an English gactress already possessed of a reputation that seems to challenge criticism, 18 to make her first appearance in this city on the 19th instant. This lady is the granddaughter of the great Mrs. Siddons, and we would natn- rally expect that witf such ancestry she must inherit great perception of dramatic art. Her fame in England is such as to justiy this thought. In person Mrs. Scott-Siddons will recall Fanny Kemble in her youth, to those who are so for- tunate aa to remember the first visit of that actress to thiscity, She hasa fine figure and manner, the Kem- ble face, and the grace, intelligence and sympathetic character that go to make up the true bistrionic artist. She will interpret Shakspeare, unfortunately, only from a reading desk, We have no stage that will tolerate Shakspeare ; so the great bard 1s pushed to the lecture room, and other wearers of the sock and buskin (and nothing else) strut and fret before the footlights. There is every probability that Mrs, Scott.Siddons’ entertainments, though without the embodiment and color of the stage, will prove very successful. The French Theatre, reconstructed. and beautided, opens for the season to-morrow evening with the new Parisian opera bouge company of Mr. J, Grau, concerning which so much has been said and writ- ten. The artists of this troupe, who are all stran- gers in this country, but who come to us with the best of recommendations, will make their debut before an American audience in the sparkling opera of the “Grand Duchess,’ and much interest is manifested in musical ciroles to see and hear them in rdéles which are so familiar to New Yorkers.

The company that is now travelling through the West will arrive in this city on the 12th inst., when they will be consolidated with the company at present performing at Niblo’s Garden, and the re combination will open on Wednesday, the 14t! inst. at Pike’s Opera House with the “Grand Duchess. Niblo’s Garden is once more about to shake with applause and the fairy footfalis of the queens of the ballet. The short-skirted amazons and graceful sylphs of the “Black Crook” and “White Fawn” are to prance about the boards of that establishment in a series of farewell “light fantastic” evolutions upon next Friday and Saturday evenings, and for those two nignts only. “Undine” will be the drama upon which the ballet will be strung, and as this occasion is espectally gotten up by Messrs, Palmer and Jarrett to wind up the ballet in New York with a grand flourish, it is but reasonable to suppose that there will be more ballet than drama.
