cS Comic opera be not so richly sensuous Italian. Coup Comrorr ror HorrMax—The move- ments among the democratic politicians in Washington, Cincinnati and New York, amounting to a confession and proclamation that Seymour and Blair are dead cocks in the pit. The Dreadfal Blairs. The Blairs have much to answer for if half that is said of them be true. They assisted ‘Van Buren in 1848 in organizing the disrup- tion of the old democratic party; they assisted in organizing the republican party; they got Frank into Congress and Montgomery into Lincoln's Cabinet as republicans; but the radi- cals got Frank out of Congress and Montgom- ery out of the Cabinet, and from that point we find them returning to the democratic church. Now from the Manhattan Ciub it is proclaimed that General Frank Blair, the democratic can- didate for Vice President, was the fatal mis- take of the Tammany Convention; that his Brodhead letter has knocked all the late elec- tions wrong side up; that in roping in Wade Hampton and all the Southern rebel leaders 8 expounders of the democratic faith this Marpiot Blair has flattened out Seymour flat asa pancake; that Blair is the Jonah who has brought the storm upon the ship, and that he must go overboard ; but that, to make all sure, Seymour must walk the plank likewise, and another captain and mate must be appointed.

British Advice to Minister Bur- lingame. The Alabama Claims Plan of Settlement. ENGLAND. The Alabama Claims Commission. Lonpon, Oct, 16, 1863, It is understood that the basis agreed to by Mr. Johnson and Lord Stanley for the settlement of the Alabama question is that a mixed commission shall be formed, which will hold its sessions in Rondon and pass upon all claims preferred by English and American citizens. The Chinese Embassy Accepted=Advice to Mr. Burlingame. LonpoN, Oct. 16, 1868, The London 7imes to-day, in an article on the Chi- nese mission, thinks that the fact that Mr. Burlin- game is not a native of China will be no obsta- cle to his success at the courts, to which he is accredited. They will forget it if he does. If he abstains from interference with political intrigues, in which China can certainly have no healthy or natural interest, if he acts as though there could be no separate national interests in Europo and America, as indeed there are not, so far as their relations with China are concerned, and if he ac- cepts it as the primary fanction of his mission to discover and explain what are the best lines of trade both for China aud the Western countries, he will have accomplished much tor China and something for the rest of the world, No State can have so per- sonal an interest in a success of this sort as Great Britain, and none could be more willing to con- tribute to it.

GEORGIA. Resolutions of the Georgia Democratic Exe ecutive Committee on Negro Suffrnge. ATLANTA, Oct, 16, 1868, The Democratic Executive Committee of Georgia published the following to-day :— Whereas it has been represented by republican speakers in the present canvass that the Southern eo are in favor of the re-establishment of slavery in their respective States, and will commence by de- priving the blacks of the right of suGrage. For the purpose of meeting this allegation and giving it posi- Uve denial Be it resolved by the Central Committee of the democratic party in Georgia, representing the people of the State, that the charge is unequivocally false; that for evidence that they do not desire to re-estab- lish slavery and could not effect it if they would, we refer to the fact that this State has assented to and ratified the amendment to the constitution of the United States forever abolishing slavery aud invol- untary servitude, except fur crime whereof the party shail be legally convicted; that we reiterate the posi- tions taken by this cominittee in a late address and in the report of the Committee on the State of the Republic, adopted by the House of Representatives in the Legislature of this State on the 20th ultimo; that we alse endorse the addrcs3 of General Robert E. Lee and others in response to the letter from General Rosecrans; that we acquiesce in the present status of the colored race among us and will protect that race to the full extent of our power in the exercise of the right of suffrage secured to them by the constitution of the United States and amendinents thereto and the constitution and laws of this State, &, G, CABANISS, Chairman.

German Drava—Tox Srapr TueaTRe,—While French comic opera, gay and sparkling, is attract- ing overflowing audiences to two rival establish- ments on the west side of the city, and the more sedate English drama, legitimate and tllegitimate, is dispensed at the Broadway theatres, the east side of the city is enjoying its German drama at the Stadt theatre, im Bowery. The present attraction is Mr, Hermann Hendriohs, an actor of great and well deserved reputation, Ho took his benefit last night in Frederick Sehilier's great play of ‘William Tell,” nd the capacions theatre was filed with a fashiona- ble artd thoroughly gratifled audience, The play ts fobably Hot oue Which liserally translated aud per- formed would be very popular in the English tongue, it is too wordy—has: too many lengthy speeches, But in the original German and for the theatrical taste of Germans it i8 not, perhaps, sus- ceptible to that eritigism. Mr, Hendyichs was much applanded, a8 were the performers of the other he stage, the eral acting was good and the orchestra superb. - BRYANTS' MINSTRELS.—Time nox rust corrupteth not the black diamonds that are nightly strung across the stage in the neat and comfortabie hall of the famed minstrels known as Bryanto’, and located in the great “wigwam” of the unterrified, “St. Tam- many.” The effervescent and irrepressible’ Dan 1s the great “Kohinoor” among these sable brilliants, and is to-day just as sparkling, rollicking-and a3 full of wit, pathos and Irresistible fun as when years ago he delighted tho town in MeChanics’ Hall. The popularity of this troupe Increases apparently with years; and last evening, as upon every other evening during the week, the house was filied with al y and fashionable audience, who gave vent to t pleasure they derived from the performance in ire- quent and hearty rounds of applause and in screams of unbridled laughter, which was quite contagious and amounted at times almost to boisterous hilarity. With the exception of the afterptece, ‘“Lucrezia Borgia, the Grand Doctress,”” which is now the great sensation at this hall, the programme has undergone @ radical change, and now presents to the public many new aud pleasing features, The “Tin-pan-o- ble rte oe > Suprectative “Kanucks” needed somet! ‘Julia Bennett Barre, "2, ending co vered from her meuts:; ies at the Varieties, Olympic and a prestidigitateur at mm.

From first to last the evening's entercainment was over- flowing with fun, but to particularize where all was excellence would be out of place and not to the pur- pose, Suilice it, then, to say that the great charm of ryants’ Minstrels lies in their close adherence to the time-honored delineations of eccentric negro life such as ts associated in the minds of the American people with Southern plantations, SAN FRANCISCO MINSTRELS.—A well filled house rewarded the labors of the three busy B.’s of this popular minstrel troupe. Birch, Backus and Ber- nard were excruciatingly funny in their negro de- Mneations, and the laughter they provoked was so contagious that Birch himself was serlously affected by it. Those who know William, however, believe it is a way he has, as his good-natured face is never without the sunshine of a smile, The sweet voice of Wambold was missed during the evening—that favorite minstrel! being incapacitated by a severe cold, What a pity singers will have colds like other mortals! Bobby Newcomb treated the audience to his feast of fun and the three B.’s followed, assisted by William Henry Rice in a Ristorian Medean bur- lesque, which for ridiculous nonsense and laughter- provoking merriment cannot be equalled on the stage. “Barber Brown, the Pacifle Sloper,’ still occupies 68 and excites tae suspicion of the Shaks- pearian bootblack.

His former flag officer, Captain Labo, has been appointed to the command of the Spanish squadron in the Pacific, ‘The scarcity and consequent high ‘prices of food and wine are abating. Education in Spat: ‘The concluding lines of our cable telegram from Madrid, under date of yesterday, which states that the “free schoois in Spain have been reopened,” are vague, inasmuch as they do not inform us, nor have we been told, when and by what authority these establishments were closed; whether by act of the government of the ex-Queen or temporarily during the progress of the revolution. With respect to the state of education in Spain, we know that the Office of Public Instruction at Madrid, just before the fall of Isabella’s throne, published some interesting official returns relating to the libraries and schools in the kingdom, According to these documents the national libraries in Spain contained 1, 166,505 volimes, thus divided:—Library of Madrid, 800,000; Central University, 300,000; Bar- celona, 136,000; Salamanca, 65,000; Paima and Ma- Jorca, 35,000; Mabon, 11,000, The archives at Simancas consisted of 70,278 packages of manu- seripta, of various sizes, and those at Alcala de Henares of 36,160, There were at that period 10 ‘universities in Spain for general instruction, 11 for the fine arts, 1 for music, 2 for manufactures, 1 for diplomacy, 5 for commerce, 17 for navigation, 27,000 ae 4 free schools and 77 institutions for training teachet The amount given by government for public instruction for the year 18%8~'09 was 23,000, 000 reals, to Which the communes throughout the king- dom aided 110,000,000 reals.

Nonrone, Oct. 16, 1868, ‘The torchlight procession to-night, as compliment to the Commercial Convention, was the grandest affair of the kind ever witnessed in Norfolk. The entire city was brilliantly illuminated. Tar barrels were burn- ing upon all the principal streets, and the procession extended over one mile. A slight difficulty, not at all serious, having occurred yesterday between some of the fire companies and the militia, the mayor this evening issued orders that they should not turn out, and this somewhat interfered with the arrange- ments for the procession. Boys, however, bore the torches, making an_ excellent display. This action of the or is regarded by some in &# political light, while others it was necessary for the preservation of the peace. However this may be the affair passed off quictly, and beyond the arrest of a few drunken negroes no- thing has occurred to mar the good order of the city, though the streets were crowded with all agos, sexes, colors and classes of persons.

KELLY AND LEON’S MINSTRELS.—To-night closes the career of the travestie of Leon's ‘Barber Blu,” one in which that notable burlesque actor and singer has added to a reputation that stands second to no other as an inimitable copyist of the manners and impersonations of others, in his Bullyette (Boulette), “*Barber Blu” gives place to “The Grand Dutch 8S,"’ which will, commencing on Monday, be performed for a limited number of nights. This burlesque on a burlesque was run last season for upwards of two hundred nights, and there is little doubt, with the new scenery, new dresses and new music prom- ised, if other engagements permitted, it wouid attract full houses for the whole of the pre- sent season. It, however, like other successes at this place’ (and “Har-ber Blu” be mentioned as among the most attractive, must give place to a very elul ste Cag, omer of the grand opera of “Zat ” which is put on the stage in a style eq in costume, scenery, music, situa- tion: On this promised piece 3, &c., to the original. $16,000 have alt been pat and there is room for the expenditure of afew more thousands before it is pronounced perfect and ready for the public, The houses during the week have been of the best, and the performances, including many novelties, have been received with roars of laughter.

De Lussan sang “Love's Re- quest,”? and displayed considerable power and exe- cntion in her subsequent reudition of ‘The Mexican Nightingale.” A few ancient Scotch songs, given with much spirit and sympathy by Mr. Griswold, were well received, nor did Mr, Prisson fail to leave a favorable tmpression of his ability as a violinist by his excellent performance of “The Last Rose of Summer,” which Flotow adreitly smuggled into iis opera. A plano solo, entitled “The Mermaid’s Rhap- sorty,”” a . Hopkins, brought the concert to a suc- cessful close. OLE BULL AT THR BROOKLYN ACADRMY OF MU. sic.—It is @ matter of ancient journalistic record that a musical genius yelept Orpheas drew inan!- mate objects to him by the potent strains of his instrumental performances. But Oie Buil did more last night. He seduced into the Academy of Music thousands of Brooklynites whom “Traviata” could not tempt to leave the shadows of their hundred and one steeples. The excellent old magi- cian of the violin waa warmly welcomed.

At the end he was greeted with applause like the thunder of a watortall and continued until he gratified the audi- ence withan encore. It Wasno small compliment that George Morgan once or twice seemed to forget that he was an artist and became one of the listen- ing throng. The piano was the happy. care of Mr. Egbert Lansing. Mr. Hall sang a buifo aria with decided success, and Miss Barton several choice bal- lad orceaux, Mustenl and Theatrical Notes. No performance at the French Theatre to-night.
