THE ARMY.

gives q renewed assurance to the People that
their condolences was properly bestowed, and that
the President Of their choice will carry their will
| into every department of the government.
This Is, perhaps, an appropriate occasion for Us
speak Of two incidents connec ted with the army
which have come To our Neutrality-suspicious. was
the case OF private soldier, who, having faith
fully discharged his duty for several years, was
improperly advertised rs deserier, and being ar
rested thirty dolls. were deducted from his wages
ttie appealed TO the head of tho Department, was
heard, and the money refunded, The other was
the case Of young officer in the staff, who, hav-
ing trivial misunderstanding with brother off,
Ger, demanded court martial. The Adjutant
General wrote him polite letter, informing him
that the charges We're not considered such ~ made
out case justfyiDg the arrest and trial of te off,
Ger complained Of To this he replied that, ii m
suited, he would thereafter take the law into his
own hands, and, il arrested, would fake the letter
in question as his justification. Upon reading his
reply, the President said" Take from him his
staff appointment, and send him back to his regi-
ment TO learn subordnation.' ~. S. Tel.
Hias! and has IL come to this?
IL was but the other day that Mr. Gales, Ia
menting over his hard fate, complained that his
old friends were deserving him. The Commercial
gencer as the best authority, quotes one OF its
falsehoods in the following terms:
"oss fell sw oP-h is announced an Of the Washing
tor s. sss ss. iR su. A..ass As
shat may be expected. There 77oo dead. aU
IN that 1ness in.nbenfs make tsiy
~ srookins the pregnant hinges Of the knee"
Who could have believed that the poetic Mr..
Stone could desert his Washington fellow labor
or, and that too in the hour of distress? What
ashamed of bis authorty' Did he believe that the
character OF the lntelligencer so low that 10
one would believe tale which he himself dis
credited, but wished to pass off Tor truth. By the
bye, the difference between the two is about the
same as that 'twixt weedledum Il tweedledee. (Ib.

ken in supposing that Mrs. Moore, who had charge
OF the post office at Lancaster, in this state was
removed, because she believed that seen. jackson
was not so we'll qualified for president as Mr..
Adams
The truth is, that Mrs. Moore was not ren,ored,
but voluntarily resigned the situation which she
had occupied, for many years, to the entire Salts
faction Of the people Of Lancaster.-The appoint
inent Of Mrs. Dickson, as her successor We are
satisfied, is very acceptable TO the people general

The cnorusses were sublime and magnificent:

with her usual felicity Mrs. Austin is wonder
fully improved; and the talents oil the other vo-
caiists were highly worthy the occasion. The
manner in which Mr.. Horn got up the musical
part OF the Festival reflects much credit on his
gentemanly demeanour and professional talent

great eciat, and, il it be possible, think Mr..

The prospects OF our next sugar crops; but are
