fort was made to extricate the ship from the fearful position and no order given to lay to slacken speed, In less than twenty-four after passing Sandy Hook a merciful sea, ‘breaking over the steamer and so deluging the ‘engine room that “‘the engineers could not ven get steam on the donkey engine,” ‘arrested her in her mad pursuit of destruc- tion and thwarted the obstinate folly of her eommander, This vessel was outstripped in speed by the storm, and after one of the most eventful passages on record, by unheard-of sexertions, reached the Mersey many days Averdue. The Pall Mall Gazette, strange to @ay, took pains to applaud the commander of ‘this ship for his heroic exertions in working hher into port in her disabled and dismantled fondition. A more unmerited compliment to stubborn ignorance or criminal recklessness ‘of life and property was never offered. { Most unbappily for the public of two conti- ments the groat transatlantic steamship lines, even with their large subsidies and highly zemunerative freights, pay their captains so poorly that they cannot command the best en. There is no international police to check such careless seamanship as we have spoken of, and which has become too common and Rotorious. But it is a fit subject of national remonsirance, The Board of Underwriters’ should understand it. The travelling public ‘and the mercantile world should remember and resent it, Anether Indian Delegation “in Washington. The Indian chiefs are again in Washington. Kight of the biggest chiefs of the Arrapahoes, Cheyennes and Wachitas have arrived on ‘special invitation, and are at present pursuing the aweltering discomforts of summer life in fhe federal city in the hope of negotiating a itreaty of peace and amity with the Great er. The Arrapahoes and Cheyennes are ‘among the most venomous of our red enemies, They represent very fairly the noble Indian who scalps and burns and destroys, out of pure Jove of blood and hatred of pale faces. The Wachitas are a better class. ‘They are nearly civilized, and have generally tarned their scalping knives to pruning hooks. ‘Their chief is Buffalo Goad, and he is evi- flently the noblest Roman of them all, although the delegation numbers such distinguished ‘men as Little Raven, Little Robe and Bird Chief. It appears that the chiefs of the Kiowas, Oomanches and Apaches—three more tribes, that are as poisonous as Indian venom can make them—declined to come to Washington on the ground that the invitations failed to mame them especially. They will come, however, when their offended dignity is oothed; that is, when they receive their formal invitations properly worded and directed. It is something new to discover Indians higgling about such a point of etiquette as this, Their dignity has always ‘been considered as touchy as that of the United States Senate, but it has been out of the reach of any little lapses of etiquette. ‘When a drunken Indian is kicked ont of a fort or refused any more fire-water his “‘dig- sity” may be relicd upon to come out strong. Then it is probable that he will wrap his rag- wed toga about him and utter the fiery words of Logan, and it is equally likely that he will seize his opportunity and brain the unfortu- mare white man who had insulted him. But for an Indian to fall back upon his dignity because his name {s®pelled wrong is ridicu- ous. Tae Skat ov THE TwELFTH Juror still yomains vacant in the Foster case. The eleven that now occupy the seats are rather an intel- ligent-looking body, notwithstanding their 4mplied temporary idiocy. One man who was examined yesterday as to his fitness to occupy ‘the one vacant chair said he knew nothing of the killing, because he had been sick all the time. He certainly had a better certificate of fitness than the others who were chosen, but he was rejected on a quibble of some sort. The question may arise, and really ought to have arisen, in the examination of jurors whether twelve temporarily insane men are not disqualified by reason of undue sympathy to try a man whose chief defence may be the very plea of temporary insanity by which they achieved the jury box.

We have never witnessed a more enjoyable rendering of “La Belle Héline."” The music, vocal and tnstru- mental, was fine, and tne choruses made the welkin ring again, All concerned on the stage appeared to be inspired to do their best, and the house re- sponded with enthusiasm. It was really a great night for the opéra bouge aa the last but one of tre season. The long and successful season of opéra Doufe at this house Will close this evening with “Le Petlt Faust.’ During the season of eight months we have had hero four of the best and most popular singers and actresses that liave ever appeared in opéra bouge—Suly, Montaland, Aimee and Persini— and the popular operas, “La Grande Duchesse,"’ “La Belle Heélene,” “Barbe Bic and the gem of them all, “La Périchole,” have been nven, and in addition three new operas—“Les Brigands,” “Les Georgiennes’ and “Le Petit Faust’—and all with a lavish expenditure in cos, tumes, choruses, scenery, machinery and acces- sories of every description, ‘The greatest hits of the season were Stily’s Petit Faust and Brignuds, Aimee’s Périchole, and as for Persini, good in every- thing, she has been, and Is, the sweetest stinger of the troupe, if not the handsomest. The troupe go hence jto Boston, and they will wake their first nupbub in the Hub on Monday night, and thence, after a week or two, they will, under the management of ‘Treasurer fl. S. Jackson, touching at Providence, strike out for Pike's new Opera House at Cincinnatt, Thence, after a brief season, they return to Gotham, stopping for a week cn rowe at Philadelpbia, and perhaps at some other places. We dare say, 600, that this expedition, fill- lng up the interval to the blooming of the season at the seaside and the springs, will be a success. MUSICAL AND THEATRICAL NOTES, At Home.
