nation has expressed its unequivocal resolve not
have another Legitimist or Orleanist epoch. A t
bulent republic is the only form of Government t
can rise on the ruins of Napoleonism until the r
sent generation of Bourbons and of Orleanists
extinct, and sane men know that any republic m
be at best a short-lived reaction that would o
more lead surely and swiftly to another period
empire and absolutism. There was then nothing

" [GENERAL ORDER, No. 49.]

" The Major-General Commanding tenders to
this army his congratulations on its achievements
of the last seven days. If it has not accomplished
all that was expected, the reasons are well known
to the army. It is sufficient to say, they were of a
character not to be foreseen or prevented by human

sagacity or resources.
" Iu withdrawing from the south bank of the
Rappahannock, before delivering a general battle
to our adversaries, the army has given renewed
evidence of its confidence in itself and its fidelity
to the principles it represents.
"By fighting at a disadvantage, we would have
been recreant to our trust, to ourselves, to our
cause, and to our country. Profoundly loyal and

conscious of its strength, the Army of the Potomac
will give or decline battle whenever its interest or
honour may command it.

"By the celerity and secresy of our movements,
our advance and passage of the river were undis-
puted ; and on our withdrawal not a rebel dared to
follow us. The events of the last week may well
cause the heart of every officer and soldier to swell
with pride.

"We have added new laurels to our former re-
nown. We have made long marches, crossed rivers,
surprised the enemy in his intrenchments, and
whenever we have fought we have inflicted heavier
blows than those we have received.

" We have taken from the enemy 5,000 prisoners
and 15 colours, captured seven pieces of artillery,
and placed hors de combat 18,000 of our foe's chosen
troops.

"'We have destroyed his depots filled with vast
amounts of stores, damaged his communications,
captured prisoners within the fortifications of his
capital, and filled his country with fear and con-
sternation.

"We have no other regret than that caused by
the loss of our brave companions, and iu this we
are consoled by the conviction that they have fallen
in the holiest cause ever submitted to the arbitra-
tion of battle.

" By command of Major-General HOOKER,
"S. WILLIAMS, Assist. Adjutant-General,"
General Lee and President Jefferson Davis have
also issued congratulatory orders.
General Lee claims a glorious victory and laments
the temporary absence of one to whose bravery
they are so much indebted for their success.
President Davis offers his thanks for this addition
to the great victories of Lee's army.

The TVorld, of this morning, in comparing the
modest order of General Lee with that of General
Hooker, says that it is the fate of many a brave
and capable army and nation to be defeated ; but to
be untruthful, boastful, and false, when occasion
demands honesty, resignation, and a loyal hopeful-
ness in adversity, will turn against us every civilized
nation on earth. No honest and fair minded man
can read these two orders without grief, pain,
and shame. The incapables rvho are ruling and
ruining us cannot save our honour.

NEW YORK, MAY 12 (Evening).

It is reported that General Halleck will take
the field in person and superintend General Hooker's
operations in the approaching campaign.

The last named pair started from the best station at a rat-
tling pace, and were soon well clear of their opponents, who
rendered the gap greater by fouling a barge. At the end of
400 yards the North London pair led by two lengths • but
Custance and Hale rapidly closed up tha gap, and, catching
them at the Point, won a good race by two lengths.

The last named pair got a little the best of the lead, but
the others closed np directly, and a most spirited and ex-
citing race followed for nearly a mile. In the course of this
there was never more than a few feet between the boats, and
at one time they were rowing strictly level for a couple of
minutes. At length, however, the London pair got away,
and gained one of the hardest victories ever earned by two
lengths,

LADVERIZEIXMENT.)—HoIIoway's Ointment.--youths'
Friend.—This excellent Ointment is so innocent in its
nature, so cooling in its properties, and so healing in its
action, that it is invaluable in skin diseases, scald head,
tetter, tooth rash, chafings, and in many varieties of
rashes and eruptions well known and deeply dreaded in the
nursery. Trivial maladies may by it be met and conquered
at the outset, and all future mischief overcome before it
has gained hold upon the constitution, and endangered
future health. Full directions are wrapped round each pot
of Ointment. Holloway's Ointment may be applied with
the best results in many diseases to which the sufferer
silently submits, because the task of investigating them
would be both difficult and delicate.

ADELPHI THEATRE,

A new and original burlesque extravaganza,
entitled "11l Treated Il Trovatore," was produced
hero last night, and net with a highly favour-
able reception. Of course, it will be at once per-
ceived that the opera of "II Trovatoro" is the
foundation of the whimsical affair, and very well
has the clever author adopted the somewhat mys-
terious plot of the original to his purpose. As
all the incidents of "11 Trovatoro" are pretty
well known, it is only necessary to say that the
gems of the opera are mixed up with street airs
in a manner that must have taxed the ingenuity
of Mr. Byron ; and this will readily be perceived
when we say that, while one of the performers
is singing, " Ah, the la morte," another is delight-
ing the upper regions with " The Perfect Cure."
The opening solo and chorus is sung by Ferrando
and the guards to the tune of the " Cork Leg,"and
the lovely Leonora and her dashing lover-trouba-
dour, give vent to the mutual affection in the most
popular and telling negro melodies. The sisters
Carry and Sarah Nelson made their first appearance
respectively as Manrico and Leonora, with the
greatest success, whilst Mr. Toole, as the Gipsy
Queen Azucena, produced an extraordinary impres•
sion by his burlesque-tragic acting. In order that
Paul Bedford might not be out of the fun Mr. Byron
introduced him as the Kinchin, from the "Flowers
of the Forest," and the position he assigned him was
chief clerk to her Gipsy Majesty. The performance
of the two kept the house in a continued state of
laughter, and Mr. R. Phillips, by his comical ren-
dering of the Count di Luna, contributed greatly
to the hilarty of the evening. All the principal
songs were enthusiastically encored; the scenery
and dresses were exceedingly beautiful and appro-
priate. At the fall of the curtain all the performers,
and the witty author, had to acknowledge the ap.
plauses showered upon them by a very crowded and
fashionable audience.

TEA.—Business has been dull, and quotations generally
are unaltered.

slight downward movement has taken place in prices. In
the refined market prices are also a shade lower, good com-
mon lump being Tilted 47s 9d per cwt.

and fine qualities of both native and plantation Ceylon have
generally sustained previous rates, while inferior descrip-
tions have, in some instances, been at reduced prices.
RICE.—The market has been dull, and only a small
quantity of East India has been disposed of, at about pre
vious rates.

TALLOW.—There has been a moderate inquiry for both
present and forward delivery, and prices have remained
firm. P.Y,C. on the spot is quoted 43s 3d, and last three
months 46s 3d per cwt.

to decide was whether they would d questionacce p
accept
a n offer
f fy e had r
to
advance a sum sufficient to complete the line. The
terms of Messrs. Newell and Co. were that they
would advance the sum of £34,000, taking in return
first-class bonds f0ri28,400 at 20 per cent. discount,
which would produce £22,720, and 1,000 second
class bonds at 40 per cent. discount, producing
£11,210. The company were to have the right to
withdraw the bond, if they could raise the money
on better terms before Messrs. Ne wall advanced it.
Messrs. Newall were to have an equal number of
shares as those now issued by the company, which
were 61,250 in number. Messrs Newall did not
guarantee to complete the line for £34,000, but
they believed that estimate would not be exceeded.
There was no guarantee at present from the Italian
Government, but he thought it highly probable
that one would ultimately be given, He then
moved " That the directors be authorised to sign an
agreement with the Messrs. Newall on the terms
stated."
Mr. LEADER seconded the motion.

Mr. WARD thought the terms proposed were most
exorbitant, and would be detrimental to the in-
terest of the compiny. Ho moved, as an amend-
ment, " That the meeting stand adjourne'd for a
fortnight, and that, in the meantime, the offer of
Messrs. Newell be printed and circulated among the
shareholders."
Mr. SPRATT seconded the amendment.

A long and angry discussion ensued., tin& on the
amendment being put it was negatived, and the
original motion was carried.
A poll was demanded, when there appeared for
the original motion 2,028 shares, representing 532
votes ; for the amendment 725 shares and 156 votes ;
mejority for the original motion,' 1,237 shares and
376 votes.

A vote of thanks to the Ashman closed the
roceedings.

here last night, and met with a highly favour-
able reception. Of course, it will be at once per-
ceived that the opera of "Il Trovatore" is the
foundation of the whimsical affair, and very well
has the clever author adopted the somewhat mys-
terious plot of the original to bis purpose. As
all the incidents of ~.11 Trovatore" are pretty
well known, it is only necessary to say that the
gems of the opera are mixed up with street airs
in a manner that must have taxed the ingenuity
of Mr. Byron; and this will readily be perceived
when we say that, while one of the performers
is singing, " Ah, the la morte," another is delight-
ing the upper regions with "The Perfect Cure."
The opening solo and chorus is sung by Ferrando
and the guards to the tune of the " Cork L g," and
the lovely Leonora and her dashing lover-trouba-
dour, give vent to the mutual aff.ction in the most
popular and telling negro melodies. The sisters
Carry and Sarah Nelson made their first appearance
respectively as Manrico and Leonora, with the
greatest success, whilst Mr. Toole, as the Gipsy
Queen Azucena, produced an extraordinary impres•
sion by his burlesque-tragic acting. In order that
Paul Bedford might not be out of the fun Mr. Byron
introduced him as the Kinchin, from the "Flowers
of the Forest," and the position he assigned him was
chief clerk to her Gipsy Majesty. The performance
of the two kept the house in a continued state of
laughter, and Mr. R. Phillips, by his comical ren-
dering of the Count di Luna, contributed greatly
to the hilarty of the evening. All the principal
songs were enthusiastically encored; the scenery
and dresses were exceedingly beautiful and hppro-
priate. At the fall of the curtain all the performers,
and the witty author, had to acknowledge the ap.
plauses showered upon them by a very crowded and
fashionable audience.
