Geeu to the greatest advantage, there was a
large portion OF the city troops all handsome

Mayor Harper who remained uncovered !or
nearly half an hour, as the several companies
salutsd him n, pGsSant. The artillery, cavalry
ana infantry, formed altogether a very long
line OF citizen soldIcry. Some of the uniforms
Appeared TO me to be rather iantastcal; but
generally, they We're in good military taste;--
ana the wav in which the column advanced
and exercised, was certainly very credtabIe to
their military character. The Park was filled
with a multitude Of spectators, who seemed TO
enjoy The spectacle very much. But to most
Of them rs well as to myself, the two High
land companies were the most attractive por-
ion Of he pageant. The uniform of the New
York Highland Guards, was highly appropriate
and handsome And the two wel-looking p-
pcgs, WHO p,cyed 80 admirably "Tho Campbells

TAsar;c1l NJ Anderson has just conclud-
cd a very Slccrss al engagement at the Park
theatre. On Friday and Saturday nights, the
house was perfect Jam; and more brilliant
aud fashionable audiences were never seen IN
that splendid and respectable theatre. The
New York critics award the highest praise to
Mr.. Anderson, lie is pndoubtedlya Star Of
the very first magnitude, and those who have
had the pleasure OF seeing his Claude .uelnotte
agree that It is one of the most finished and
natural pieces % acting that was ever played
before New York audience. | concur in this
opinion Of Mr.. Anderson S extraordinary merits
in the performance of Claude Melnotte, and |
can assure your theatrical readers, that when
MIR. Anderson makes his debut in Baltimore,
they will have rich treat before them. l do
not write this in the usual cant and style OF
theatrical putting; it is due to Mr.. Anderson S
pre-eminent merit to speak of him. in the very
highest terms.
Strange R,unor. There is rumor in circula-

State have sicnified their intention to vote for
Mr. Van Buren,, and that the Electors of Penn
sylvania have written to the president elect,
to demand of him, in explicit terms, an answer
on some two or three important points touch
ing his proposed administration. A thousand
speculations of course, grow out OF this ru
NOR. One is, that the election, in the event
OF Mr.. Van Buren, getting the vote of the New
York electors, will be given to the House oil
Representative and that lie will there secure
the election
The Weather. Winter appears to have fully
set in, and it is feared that the navigation oil
the Canals will be interrupted if not entirely
suspended.
