Thelettero We learn by the arrival of the Nova Scotian, with news from New York on the 6th inst., that the difficulty of making diplomatic appointments is not yet over in America. The Senate indeed appears to have grown more moderate in their conduct since the conclusion of the Impeachment Trial, but the Foreign Affairs Committee has now begun to make itself troublesome, and its members have recommended the rejection of the nomina tion of General M'CLELLAN as Minister to Great Britain, and of Mr. Cox as Minister to Austria. The mere fact of a Minister having been nominated by the present Government is quite sufficient to call forth a protest on the part of some politicians, and the newly-ap pointed Ministers to England and Austria seem to hare the benefit of this feeling. Mr. THORNTON is meanwhile comfortably installed at Washington, and has begun inquiring about the Renewal of the Reciprocity Treaty. Mr. SEWARD 18 reported to have said that the action of Congress in the matter would be necessary. We should hope that com mon-sense counsels may prevail this year, and that having indulged their feelings against England, wi , hout any advantage to themselves, the Radicals may consent to allow the inte rests of the commercial community to be considered. The merchants of Detroit, who might reasonably be supposed to know more about the matter than the angry gentlemen who meet at asbington, made, it will be remembered, a very spirited and sensible protest against the rupture of the commercial arrangements between Canada and the United States ; but at that time the Radicals car ried everything before them, and England was the object of their supreme displeasure. Times have changed since then, and every succeeding election shows how strongly the tide of public opinion has set against the faction which has worked so much mischief. The late elections in Oregon form the latest triumph of the Democrats. An unex pected success has attended their candidate for the State membership for Congress. A sharp contest and a full vote resulted in the success of the Democrat by a majority of nearly 2,000, and nearly all the Legislature and the county officers belonged to the same party. At the last election, two years ago, the Republican candidate obtained a seat in Congress by a majority of 55, and in the State Legislature the Republicans secured a majo rity of seven members. The Democrats, as might be expected, are greatly elated at this result, which they accept as indicative of the votes which the Pacific States will give in the Presidential election. They call it satirically , t the first gun for General GRANT." Yesterday was a grand day with the Merchant Taylors' Company, and her MAJESTY'S Ministers were entertained at a Banquet in the hall at Thread needle-street. The affair was very brilliant, and the whole of the entertainment reflected the greatest credit upon those conurned in it. The Premier , and nearly all the Ministers, were present, besides a numerous assemblage of the conspicuous members of the Conservative party. The guests were nu merous, and the general arrangements altogether conduced greatly to the effect of the evening. It will be in the knowledge of many that the Merchant Taylors' Company is one of the most time-honoured of all the Guilds for which the city of London has been famous, and last evening they appeared in a spirit and splen dour worthy of the more magnificent days of, their history. The Hall itself is well fitted for a scene of this kind, being lofty, and admirably complete n its various parts. The history and traditions of the party are Conservative in the fullest acceptation of the term, and on more than one occasion the party has made it a standing-ground for political manifestations on the eve of any great crisis that ty:.- curred. There is ample reason for this Company making an effort to welcome the present Administra tion, for it has conferred honour on the cause by its spirited action respecting Reform. The popu larity in which the present Ministry is held was amply proved yattrday, for the Premier was ex tremely well received on arriving, and again in the hall ; and some of the leading members of the Administration also obtained a cordial recognition. In proposing the " Army" the Master said that the Conservative prestige in war had been fitly borne out by the recent success in Abyssinia ; and Sir J. PAKINGTON, in returning thanks, made some interesting observations.

A certain number of persons have been arrested, including some of a social position which exempted them from suspicion, and rendered it most impro bable they would be arrested, especially in Italy, unless the strongest evidence against them bad been forthcoming. We wait to see what comes of the affair, bat it will be far from unprecedented if nothing more be heard of it. Meanwhile General GRANT and Speaker COLFAX have been waited upon by the Committee of the Chicago Convention, and officially informed of their nomination for the two highest offices in the State. General HAWLEY, who made the announcement, said to GRANT that they were sure be would not impose upon the unwilling representatives of the people any policy of his own devising, for he had said that " the will of the people was the law of the land." General GRANT, who never exhibits any of the rashness of the soldier, but always main tains the cautious reserve of the statesman, contented himself with agreeing to this statement, and saying be would write a letter of acceptance. Three days later the letter was published, and exhibits the same caution, and is also, we must ac knowledge, characterised by good sense. While Congress is rashly pledging the future, and making the elections of national representatives dependent that conduced to it. In proposing the toast of the evening the Master made an appropriate speech, in which he dwelt upon the character of the Adminis tration generally, and concluded by associating with the toast " the name of the right hon. gentle man at the head of the Government, whose com manding genius, great eloquence, and unshaken resolution had commanded success in spite of the enormous and hostile attacks which have been made against him, and whose good temper and tact enabled him to rule the storm, and, if not to reach port, at least successfully to keep to the open sea."

The Irish Government have determined to re lease Mr. Pigott, of the Irishman. On Tuesday the Governor of Richmond Bridewell received authority from the Lords Justices (acting in the absence of the Lord-Lieutenant) to release him from custody on his perfecting the recogainnces required by his sentence. This concession amounts to a commutation of punishment by one-half. Mr. Pigott was sentenced to twelve months' imprison meat, and has spent exactly six in the Bride well. on rigid obedience to specified restrictions, General GRANT justly declares that "In times like the or at least eminently present it is im proper,impossible, to lay down a policy to be adhered to, right or wrong, through an administration of four years." He adds that " new political issues not foreseen are constantly arising, the views of the pub lic on old ones are constantly changing, and a purely administrative officer should always be left free to execute the will of the people." This is to say, in other words, that GRANT, as candidate for the Ra dical suffrages, accepts the position which the House of Representatives has marked out for the occupant of the White House, and that he will, if elected, consider himself merely "an administrative officer," whose first duty is to consult " the will of the people," as expressed, of course, through their re presentatives. Happily, judging from the turn which the elections aze taking, the will of the Congress is not likely to be so arbitrary, so oppres sive,-or so delf 7 seeking as it has been of late years. So far as the refusal to pledge- himself to any par - - ticular policy is concerned, General GRANT . is wise.

REMARKS, A rapid increase in barometrical pressgres has occurred on our north and east coasts since last evening, and readings are now high at all stations : they are highest in the district named, and there is a difference of four-tenths of an inch between Leith and Biarritz. On the west coast a slight decrease is in progress. Temperatures are very high except in the north. The winds yesterday were of moderate force, and towards the afternoon were veering : they are generally from the eastward this morning, and are very light in Scotland, but moderate on the Channel coast. Weather is generally fine and dry, The special correspondent of the Times writes that the outrage at Belgrade is felt in Hungary ah nos t lik e a family tragedy. The impression is so much the greater as there was not the slightest premonitory symptom of the catastrophe. The Prince had succeeded in completely mastering the Opposition, so that, except in form, he had become, far more so than his father, the uncontrolled ruler of his country. Every year his popularity increased, so that at the moment of his death the chances of founding a truly national dy nas t y seeme d quite assured. This would seem to exclude the idea of assassination from political motives, did not the details which have at present transpired leave little or no doubt that private motives of revenge played, if not the first, at any rate a very essential part. A probable list of candi dates for the succession is furnished by the writer. There is first the nephew of the deceased Prince, the grandson of Milosch's brother Ephraim, a youth 14 years of age. 'lhe second candidate named is the deposed Prince Kara georgevich, the son of the Servian hero Czerny George; and the third, Prince Daniel of Montenegro, the favourite of the national party. The last, but by no means the least on the list, is Garachanin, the Minister President. lie is undoubtedly in intelligence and character far ahead of everyone else, and in Europe his accession to power would be the greatest guarantee of peace and order. It is feared, however, that there may be a difficulty in inclin ing him to exert himself in the matter, or to allow others to do it for him. Now . that we have the official despatches from Sir Robert Napier giving all particulars of the storming of the fortress of 11fagdala, the victory does not seem to have been so easily attained as the telegrams had led us to suppose. As the Daily News points out, it appears to have been no child's play in which our forces were engaged, and therefore the English nation ought to be still more deeply impressed with the gravity of the enterprise and with the genuineness of the triumph. The Abys sinians fought with a determination which won the respect of our commander-in-chief, and, although they had terrible odds arrayed against them, returned again and again to the attack, and yielded at last to the sheer weight of material superiority. " We have shewn once more," says our contemporary, " that English troops can perform feats deemed impossible, and can boast the ser vices of a general who may rank among the great com manders of an age fertile in military genius. The Abys sinian army and Sir Robert Napier maintain the noble traditions of British valour and discipline." Under the new Reform Act every man who for one year prior to the 31st of July has occupied as sole tenant the same lodgings,which if unfurnished would let at the rate of i!1.0 a year, may claim to be placed on the list of voters. Joint occupiers will be disqualified, and the value is to be regarded as a question of fact for the revising barrister to decide. If taken unfurnished, the rent paid is to be accepted prima fade as the proof of value. Every person paying 4s. a week rent for unfurnished lodgings will be entitled to claim. If the lodgings are taken furnished, the claimant must shew that, exclusive of a reasonable charge for the use of the furniture, the lodgings occupied by him are worth 4s. a-week, or £lO a-year. Occasional absence during the twelve months will not disqualify, pro. vided no other person occupies in the interval, and pro. vided the rent continues to be paid by the claimant. The iiidger claims • are to be published by the overseers in a separate list 1/44 later than the commocautut of Lcllttr. THE HANDEL FESTIVAL. THE " SELECTIONS "—YESTERDAY. The attendance yesterday of upwards of twenty one thousand visitors beneath the arch of the Grand Central Transept of the Crystal Palace at Syden ham, evidenced in a striking manner the extraor dinary popularity and paramount attraction of the Second of the three Grand Days of these Triennial Handel Festivals—the day of the " Selections." They are selections, as all the world knows, from several of Handel's Oratorios, and from other works of that Master of Masters in the divine art of Music. Opera, Oratorio, and Cantata—Chorus and Double Chorus—Duet and Trio—Air and Recitative—March and Overture—alternate in this wonderful display of the diversity, the variety, the versatility of thii astounding genius, this Shakspere among musical composers. No marvel is it, therefore, that while thousands throng to any one of the grandest of these colossal oratorios, that yet more thousands should crowd the Great Hall of luminous glass and delicately-traceried iron, dedi- c4ted especially to his memory, as immediately con fronting what is now known far and wide as the Handel Orchestra ! The Orchestra the diameter of the exquisitely proportioned roof of which is actually twice that of the dome of St. Paul's Cz. , l!)edral ! The Orchestra—the stringed instruments in which exceed four hundred --the entire occupants of which, counting vocalists and instrumentalists together, number up the enor mous aggregate of fully four thousand souls ! That majestic and altogether matchless Orchestra, the central portion of which is of itself about the grandest and most appropriate monument ever erected in honour of a great musician—meaning the glorious organ inscribed with the name of HANDEL, and having also incribed, there, upon either side of that great name, as dates worthy of being held in ever grateful and reverential remembrance, the year of the giant composer's birth and of his death. Emblazoned in panels around the inner circumfer ence of that immense Orchestra are, among others, the names or titles of the magnificent oratorios 'rom which the principal solos and choruses which were performed yesterday had been selected-- " Saul," "Joshul," " Samson," " Jephtha," "De borah," "Solomon," "Judas Maccabeus" ! Bear ing in mind alone those marvellous masterpieces, any one with an ear for music can appreciate upon the instant the astonishing treat provided for them on the Day of Selections, more particularly when the soloists entrusted with the task (that labour of love), of interpreting the recitatives and airs (in among the colossal choruses), are such artistes as Titiens, Nillson, Kellogg, Carola, Sainton- Dolby, and Lemmens•Sherrington, as Santley, Cummings, and Sims Beeves. As a matter of course the vast area was filled therefore. As a matter of course the aggregate of visitors exceeded 21,000. The Palace, crowded at the commencement of the performance, namely by two o'clock in the after noon, remained so up to the close of this second celebration, namely, until six o'clock in the evening. During those four hours, nineteen grand choruses, nineteen exquisite solos, one delicious duet, and one crowning or culminating trio, constituted, together with a noble overture, and an immortal march, at once the soul and substance of yesterday's memorable performances. The selections from Saul led off punctually at two o'clock the demonstration of the splendour and diversity of the gifts of Handers incomparable genius as a composer. And nothing could very well have struck more majestically the keynote, as it were, of the whole performance, than the great' chorus of adoration " How Excellent Thy Name !"—the antiphonal grandeur of which hushed the immense audience at once into an attention that, from that moment until the close of the whole diversified perform ances, four hours afterwards, it may ba said with perfect truth, never for one instant flagged. After Madame Lernmens-Sherrington's voice, clear as a bell, had given the air, "An infant raised," fol lowed immediately by the appalling semi-chorus, " Along the monster Atheist trod," through which the footsteps of Goliah are audible through the con cordant clangour of the basses, the five great choruses followed one upon the other in rapid succession— rising as by a marvellous crescendo through " The youth inspired by Thee," and " Our fainting courage," and " How excellent Thy name," to the " Hallelujah " (it is Saul, remember, that wo are still speaking of) up to the climax of them all—one of the grandest choruses ever com- posed by Handel, and consequently one of the grandest ever composed by any one,--" Envy, Eldest Born of Hell." It was at the conclusion of that chorus that came, what according to our notion was, of all, the great sensational performance of the day, a day full of supreme sensations of delight and astonishment—namely, the rendering, as it never until yesterday has been rendered not even at the rehearsal of Friday last, the matchless rendering of the pathetic, haunting, funereal " Dead March" —the simplest and yet the sublimest burial march ever written. It was played yesterday just abso lutely to perfection, and clings still to our remem brance with a haunting impressiveness. Madlle. Nillson's "From mighty kings," out of "Judas Maccabeus," and the same radiant soprano's " Wise men, flattering," from the same oratorio, were brought into striking contrast with Mr. Santley's noble delivery, ore rotundo, in between them, of " 0 voi dell' Erebo," from " Resurrezione." Directly after Maille. Nilsson's second withdrawal from the platform, came the first though not the greatest of Mr. Sims Reeves' two great triumphs of yesterday —his rendering of the recitative " Deeper and deeper still," and of the air " Waft her angels," both from the pathetic pages of Jephthah. By rea son actually of the exquisite refinement of his sing ing, our great tenor contrives somehow in the vast aria of the Crystal Palace (admirable though the acoustic arrangements of the auditorium are accord ing to their present construction) he contrives some how, we say, by the very perfection of his singing (in its refinement) to militate against the effect pro duced upon a considerable portion of the assembled multitude. Upon the occupants of the upper gal leries, the subtler beauties of his style were lost alto gether. The enthusiasm manifested, however, by those happily placed within more reasonable range attested to those others who were less luckily situ ated that if distance, according to the poet, lends enchantment to the view, there are occasions upon which it certainly does not to the heating. Instead of pausing at the close of the First Part, namely, at the conclusion of the bewitching chorus, that chorus alternately awful, and pathetic, and ex ultant, "He saw the lovely youth," taken from 7 heodora, the theme of which is the raising of the widow's son to life—M. Costa passed on, with a merely momentary interruption, to the Second Part, the opening piece of which was the masterly and varied Overture from the Occasional Oratorio. The great chorus, " May no rash intruder," from Solomon, preluded, in a manner, most effec tively the appearance of Madlle. Titiens, who gave as none other could give it more brilliantly, " Lascia oh' io pianga," from Rinaldo. And then came Mr. Santley's grand triumph of the day, the one only encore, his unsurpassable rendering of the love song of the amorous giant Polyphemus, " 0, ruddier than the cherry," from Acis and Galatea. Often and splendidly as he has sung it before now, he never sang it more splendidly than he did yesterday. And he was rewarded accordingly, being compelled by a burst of acclamations that there was no withstanding (even by that arch enemy of encores, Mr. Costa) to repeat it, as he did in consequence repeat it—singing it again just as splendidly, and being rewarded at its close with an other thundering burst of applause. " Where'er you walk," from Senzele, having been given excellently well by Mr. Cumming, was capped by the sequent chorus, "Now Love, that everlasting boy," finely ren dered by the four thousand musicians in the orchestra. Then followed the delicious duet already alluded to, " 0 lovely peace," from Judas Maccabeus, in which Madlle. Christine Nilsson's young soprano and Madame Sainton-Dolby, still fresh though more matured contralto, vied with each other, and, in vying, so. exquisitely harmonised. The trilling " Sweet bird," from L' Allegro, was- immediately tit ii given with citaciAtiguis effect by the always welcome voice of Madame Lemmens-Sher rington, accompanied, interwoven one might sat, with the rebec of the flute obbligato of Mr. Radcliffe. Then at last came the pause in the day's programme after the pealing forth of the grand chorus from Alexanders Feast, in which the kindred geniuses of Dryden and Handel were knit together—" The many rend the skies." As a noble signal of commencement for the concluding portion of the day's performances after a not unwelcome interval for refresh ment and chit chat, came the double chorus from : - )eborah—" Immortal Lord"—mainly remarkable for the marvellous massing together of concordant sounds. Immediately upon its completion followed the final selections from Judas Maccabeus. Madlle Titiens' " Pious Orgies"—Mr. Sims Reeves mag nificent " Sound an alarm," in the delivery Of which our great tenor is simply peerless and unap proachable—and, to crown all, the choral outburst of " We hear, we hear," which, as given yesterday, was nothing but electrifying. Madame Sainton - Dolby's " What though I trace," from So/onzon, oddly to our thinking preceded Madlle. Carola's radiant rendering of " Let the Bright Sera phim," from Samson, made more radiant still by Mr. Harper's trumpet übbligato—instead of that previously mentioned air being grouped with the other airs and choruses, selected immediately after wards from the same oratorio of Solomon. The choruses were especially fine and the airs superbly delivered, all but one of them, by Madame Sainton Dolby. That one exceptional air being allotted to Madle. Kellogg her one, and most lovely per forolauce of the day, " 0 had I Jubal's lyre." As a fitting climax to the whole of these magnificent performances of yesterday came, almost simul taneously with the stroke of six o'clock in the evening, the trio (sung by Madlle. Titiens, Madlle. Carola, and Madame Saintun-Dolby), together with its astounding chorus from Joshua, " See the Conquering hero comes"—the indescribably ma jestic effect of which we referred to in the strongest terms we could apply to it in our notice of last Friday's Full Rehearsal. Yesterday it was given just as astonishingly, just as magnificently. And so the Day of the Selections came to its conclusion. To-morrow we have in prospect the grandest choral day of all—namely, the day of the Israel in Egypt, by many regarded as Handel's master- piece. --ng , -- &nil ----" irtn , Tar . HER MAJESTY.
