GENERAL GAINES.

There are some mistakes afoat about General
Gaines, and the course of the administration
When the N. Y. Sun states that the acts of the
General have received the approval of the Gov
eminent we must say that we not advised
that this is the case. When it goes on further to
say that she has been clothed with more ample
discretionary powers" we undertake to say that
this is a mistake.
And when a correspondent Of the New York
Courier undertakes to say that Gen. Gaines chad
written to the Toxab government, calling on them
to embody three thousand volunteers for the SER
vice of the United States" we repeat, he is mis-
taken, and that the Department of War is not in
formed of the fact
The truth is, that the army Of occupation is
under the special command of General Taylor
that he will call for militia assistance, when he
thinks it necessary. We have not understood
that he has yet called upon the governors of the
States, under the general instructions of the Ex-
ecutive: and 1t is still probable that he will di-
rect the gallant volunteers of New Orleans to
return to their homes Washington Union.
Will the Union go one step farther, and inform
us, why the government, if General Gaines has
been acting without authority, do not remove
him from his command and call him to an ac-
count for what he has done ?

ROYAL GOSSIP.

The following is from Williss last letter in the
Mirror.
s'Mrs Caudle" is now the established and con-
slant afterpece at three of the London theatres :;
note paper is embellished with pictures from the
story prints of Mr. and Mrs Caudle stare from
every shop window, and the miseries of hem
pecked husbands are undoubtedly the leading
idea of the time. If Victoria escapes being cali
ed Queen Caude in history, it will be by the
alacrity with which oblivion disposes of gossip
for there are thousand and one stories ahoat of
Her Majesty's f having her way to the great
inconvenience of Prince Caudle. AS beggars
sing ballads in the street describing the royal
quarrels, it is not improbable that the author of
'sMrs Caudle's Lectures took his idea from the
Palace, and therefore this most popular hit of lit
erature of the time is very fair exponent of her
Majesty's reign. The hereditary madness in the
family makes it dangerous to oppose her wishes,
and a remonstrance or objection is seldom VEN
tured upon An express tram sent from
Brighton to London to bring down the royal
