" It [her heart] breaks !"

"It breaks, it breaks—it is not iron !"
The triumph of Miss Bateman's Bianca was then
indeed recognised as complete. The young actress
was twice conducted before the footlights by Mr.
Webster him self—the applause which greeted
her, coming from all parts of the densely crowded
house without any distinction of clique or class,
boxes, stalls, pit, slips, gallery, and amphi-
theatre. Mr. Jordan, who acted Charles Kemble's
part of Fazio, sustained the character so meri-
toriously throughout that he, too, would have
had to appear before the curtain in answer
to a loud call from the audience, but that he
had already left the theatre. The thankless, not
to say detestable part of the Lady Aldabella was
self-sacrificingly sustained by Mrs. Billington.
As to the rest of the characters of the piece, they
are altogether too insignificant to admit for one
moment of their beingjhere seriously particularised.

" Headquarters, Mildmay Division on the
Mississippi, in the field, Raleigh,

" SPECIAL FIELD ORDER No. 58.
"The General commanding announces to the
army. a suspension of hostilities, and an agreement
with General Johnston and high officials, which,
when formally ratified, will make peace from the
Potomac to the Rio Grande. Until the absolute
peace is arranged, a line passing through Tyrrell's
Mount, Chapel Hill University, Durham's Station,
and West Point, on the Neuse River, will separate
the two armies. Each army commander will
group his camps entirely with a view to com-
fort, health, and good police. All the details
of military discipline must still be maintained, and
the General hopes and believes that in a very few
days it will be his good fortune to conduct you all
to your homes.
" The fame of this army for courage, industry,
and discipline, is admitted all over the world. Then
let each officer and man see that it is stained by no
act of malignity, rowdyism, and petty crime. The
cavalry will patrol the front of the line. General
Howard will take charge of the district from
Raleigh up to the cavalry. General Slocum to the
left of Raleigh, and General Schofield in Raleigh,
its rear and right. Quartermasters and commissaries
will keep their supplies up to a light load, for the
waggons and the railroad superintendent will
arrange a depot for the convenience of each sepa-
rate army.--By order of

"Maj.-Gen. Dix, New York,—A despatch from
General Sherman states that Wilson held Macon on
the 20th, with Howell Cobb, G. W. Smith, and
others as prisoners, but they claimed the benefit of
the armistice, and he has telegraphed me through
the rebel lines for orders. I have answered him that

for further orders, unless he has reason to believe
the rebels are changing the status to our prejudice.
