Upon nearing the squatters’ quarters a fresh num- ber, variously armed, retreated to a house wnich was surrounded. Sergeant Cullen advanced to the door and was instantly shot, which so infuriated the troops that they returned the fire, and rushing into the house bayoneted one or two of the negroes. Three were killed outright. The troops were with- drawn from the scene of the affray after effecting the arrest of two of the ringleaders, A delegation of negroes then waited upon the officer and demanded the arms that were captured, which were refused. ‘The spokesman retorted, “If that is the way tnings were going every white man would be run out of the county.” The citizens of Kempsville picketed that the woods filled with armed the entire night.

On the question of the Con- stabulary act he says it is repugnant to the deep-settied notions of municipal rights. It was an independent and abnormal power in the civil system. he says there is a valuable water power in this State to the amount of upwards of a million horse power—a power equal to that of 15,000,000 men, No one fail to see that the seat of manufactures of New E} Massachusetis and Rhode Island water power is worth from one hundred and fifty to four hundred dollars per horse power and rents in some places for seventy dollars per year for each horse power, we see how immediate and great a source of wealth lies in our natural resources.

AMUSEMENTS. BROADWAY THRATRE.—Last evening this comfor- (able ttle theatre was filled to overflowing, and the reception accorded to Mr. and Mrs. Barney Willams, on the occasion ef their farewell benefit, was en- thusiastic in the extreme. Throughout the entire evening the progress of the piece was frequently in- terrupted by loud tokens of approbation, for periaps never was the “Emerald King” represented to such advantage. ‘That the production is meritorious is evident from the night\y crowds that have thronged the establishment, and the manner in which it has been presented to the public is well worthy tne hearty approval with which it has been favored, ‘The benetit of Mr. and Mrs, Williams last evening was in every respect successful. Both artists, it 1s needless to state, sustained their respective o3 as they only can do, and the cordial manifestations which greeted them were as deserved as they were sincere, Park TuEaTre,—The play of the ‘Peep o’ Day” Was produced at this theatre last night, on the occa- sion of Mr. Walter Lennox's benefit, and performed in an unexceptionable manner. The house was crowded, and the audience showed their apprecia- tion of the manner in which this popular drama was rendered by frequent applause. ‘The piece being a familiar one it is unnecessary to describe the plot. Mrs. Conway sustained the character of Kathieen Kavanagh with genuine spirit, and was well sustained by the company. By tb® close of the first act it was evident the andieney were deeply in- terested in the plot, for the enrre was a heariy one from ail parts of the house, Phe company were, a8 usual, well up in their » rts, and nothing occurred through the entire »rf>rmance to detract from t] interest which tb” judience took in the piece. pared ‘ooh uo character of Barney le, and ept the 9” vience in a broad grin at his genuine “mor and trish wit.

The pad of Mary Grace was well performed by Miss F. Prestige. The minor Parts were equally well taken by tne rest of the company, STEINWAY HALI—RENTREB OF MADAME PARBPA- Rosa.—It ts seldom even in this popular hall that such a large and truly fashionable audience is seen ag that which greeted Madame Parepa-Kosa on her safe return from those terrible San Franciscoans. And the occasion was worthy of such an audience. The departure of this great songstress tor California ir. last summer left a void in the concert hall which j; | was found impossible to fil, and the go>%equence has been that the concert season 9g far has been un- satisfactory and to some degree unsuccessful.

The same liquid tones, extend- ing far above the compass of other singers, filled the hall and electrified the audience. To speak of Parepa’s voice would be to repeat what has been said a hundred times over. We need only say that it has lost nothing in sweetness and power since her departure. Levy, ihe cornet pares, made his first appearance also after a long nee. We must say lat we do not like his playing as well as when he was here beiore. Whether it is the fault of the in- strument or not, the fact is that the tone is harsh and uneven, and although his execution is irre- proachable, there 1s too much forcing, as we may term it, of the tone to give pleasure. The tone is either manissimo or. imo, and has no medium, This was painfully perceptible in Rode’s air with variations. Mr. Brookhouse Bowler sang the war song from “Eli” in excellent style, and Ferranti rolled out his “Tra, la, la!’ and gesticulated as usual. Colby accompanied in a style which gave universal satisfaction.

The Greatest Discovery of the Age—Bartlett White Lead and Zine Company. Scuoon or Mines, CoLumBta COLLEGE, CorngR FORTY-KINTH STREET AND FouRTH AV., New York, Nov. 19, 1508. PRESIDENT BarTLett Leap Comeany:— DEAR Stk—The Bartlett lead which | saw manu- factured at your works at Bergen Point, and whic! Ihave carefully analyzed, consists of an intimate mixture of zinc and lead, which can only be pro- duced from ores such as vou are working. This natura! mixture of zinc and lead possesses the most valuable properties—properties which are en- urely wanting in the artificial mixtures. I have subjected the “Bartlett Lead” to a series of practical tests in comparison with the other pig- ments in general use, with the following results:— 1. Owing to its great opacity 1t covers much better than pure oxide of zinc or the best white lead. 2.. It covers more surface, weight for weight, 3. It makes a harder and more durable coating. 4. It will wear much longer when exposed to the weather on outside work. 6. It resists for a greater length of time the action of sulphuretted hydrogen and other deteterious gases, which so quickly discolor white lead. This gives it a great advantage for inside work. These are the strongest recommendations for a pigment, and as I believe you add to these the item of cheapness, I do not see that any higher encomium 1s possible. : 7 Fours ©. F. CHANDLER, Professor ot Analytical and Applied Chemistry. ENDORSEMENT OF WOODWARD & PEARSE. As practical painters we endorse what Pro! it Chandler states in his report tn regard to the Bart- lett lead and zinc. Rs WOODWARD & PEARSE, New York MORTON & McCORMICK, New York. STATEN ISLAND RATLROAD COMPANY, } OFFICE At FERRY, FOOT OF WHITRHALL STREET, New York, Dec. 30, 1563. We confirm the statements of Professor Chandter and of Messrs. Woodward & Pearse on the merits of the Bartlett Lead. We have used the ‘Paint forsome time on the Statén Island ferryboats and find it goes further and wears better than any other ever used in our ume. J. H. VANDERBILT, President. J. W. Braistep, Superintendent. The undersigned, having jointly concluded ar- rangements with the above company for the entire product of their extensive mines and works, desire to bring to the notice of the paint trade the follow- ing facts in relation to the new article of Bartlett Lead When ground in oil it produces a paint which, for every desirable property, we put in direct competi- tion with the purest of American and Englisii white leads. It is whiter, euperior in body and finencas and of greater durability, can be supplied at a much lower price, and there is no doubt but that it wilt command the preference over all other pure white leads. ‘The superiority of this Paint over pure ground lead is acknowledged, and our own tests confirm everything that has been claimed for it, We are thoroughly convinced of the positive excellence oi the article and we soltoit for it simply a fair trial, ‘The Bartlett Lead will be ground strictly and ab- solutely pure, in refined linseed ofl, the trade mark of the Company on every package being a positive guarantee to this effect, and is warranted to give perfec! satisfaction. The Company are proprietors of their mines, and no other lead ore of this description has been found eisewhere; and as the trade mark, brands, labels, &o., are necured by copyright, any infringeront or counterfeit will bo dealt with according to law; @d, | © revent the articto trom boing sold ap an adutte- , ae ee T rated form, the dry material wit! not be offered in the market. ‘To parties using it with pure boiled or raw Linseed oil, aud pare spirits of turpentine, we guarantee it, in respect to peeling, against any white fead. We call attention to the above facts, and would be pleased to send prices and samples. C,. T. RAYNOLDS & C0., New York. J. H. CHADWICK & CO,, Boston. WORCESTER, LAIBLE & STANDISIT, Detroit.

The company also offer for sale, in lots to sult per- chasers, @ pure brown paint, made directly from the mineral, warranted to be the best material ever of- fered to the trade for all kinds of iron and out of door work, iron veasels, &c., &c, Whereas certain parties engaged in the white lead trade have, by @ circular, pretended to doubt the superiority of this paint over their own manufacture, we make the following proposition:—That two build, ings shall be selected in the most exposed situations, say at Newport or at Long Branch, one of which shall.be painted with the best white leaf ana the other with the Bartlett lead, the samo to be permitted to stand for a stated tine to be agreed upon, when, upon the judgment of scientific men or experienced painters, the repre- sentatives of the unsuccessful paint shall pay over te & committee, to be eelected by different associations Of the trade, the sum of $10,000, to be by sald com- mittee distributed among the sick and destitute families of painters throughout the United States.
