the 18th INST That he will be received with re-
spect and honor by all parties, there can be no
doubt. true patriot and firm sustainer of
the interests of his country, he has. during the
time passed in the service of the government.
effected much in creating that friendly feeling be-
tween England and America, which it is aSvav,
worthy of their own characters to uphold. Time
has shown that no one from this country has com.

gentleman whose anticipated return we now

The New YORK PlLoTs.--ln our columns TO
day we publish communication, which gives
an unanswerable reply TO those who, instgated
by the movements of cliques, have lately attacked
the efforts being made restore the pilots of our
city to their former well deserved privileges. 1t
is strange that these underwriters with their
agents, who cry the loudest against our pilets,
and raise the common bug-bear of anti-monopo-
ly as their excuse, are themselves induced to this
very course, by the knowledge that in the New
York pilots they find set of men who cannot be
made the tools for political purposes; and who by
their independent spirit will not obey the dictates
of selt-styed Board of Commerce, who would
glandly monopolze the government of our bar-
Dor and its uses
1t is almost useless TO enter into an argument on
the justice of the demands made Ivy our Senators
in Washington for the rights Of their constituents.
for there can be doubt, that with the execution
of those who are directly interested in the bust
ness OF making money by shipwrecks, our COM
munity, as body, will uphold any course tend
ing to give to our own citizens their Just means of
securing livelihood. The New York pilots are
bred to their business; familiar with every point
of danger in our harbor, they toll late and early,
through storm and cold, for the guidance of our
ships; they are joined as body, and are respon-
sible in every act.
We sincerely trust that Congress will now take
up this matter, and give back the privilege they
have taken away from too long neglected body
of our citizens.

visit fallen man. But to see her in her private re-
treat, she looks as have described her-lke a
widow lady who once kept boarding house in
the Bowery. Certo Is also here, dancing, and
certainly, upon the stage, is far superior in inte-
rest to any other; she would make more decided
hit in America than has been made since the days
of Fanny Elssef. Lucille Grain is like ghost
of the other world, in extremely short petticoats,
and Icing lank legs, dancing down eternity before
you. But after all, Fanny Elssler, in the aggre-
gate, off the stage, is the most distinguished
danseuse have ever seen, and one who will bear
a close examination. Dumbleton is here with his
Ethiopians, and has made a prodigious hit. He
has been highly approved of by Queen Victoria,
who is very fond of American wit and humor;
also by the royal family and all the court, includ-
ing both parties. He has certainly made prodi-
gious hit, and is going to the continent. He will
make 800 900 before he leaves Off This has been
brought about chiefly by the excellent tact of
Dumbleton HIMSELF who is regular Yankee all
over, from top to toe. Miss Cushman and her sis
ter have just closed their engagement at the Hay
market. She is on the tptop tide of fortune, and
will probably realize large one before she leaves
this country. The success of Miss Cushman, and
the failure OF Forrest, who both were here a year
ago, is hardly understood in the United States
have learned the facts, and the case is quite
amusing. 1t appears that Forrest made his debut
at the Princess theatre-Maddox is the manager,
who is well known in the United States. He was
ambitious to sink the style which had gained
him name in the United States--and in which he
appeared in his natural energy, and without af
tectation-to assume another in which he thought
to give superior model of all that was classical.
The attempt altogether failed whereas had he
stuck to his original style, and played Metamora
instead of Shakespeare, it is probable he would
have made great sensation among the critics.
On the contrary, Miss Cushman, aided by no one,
heralded by no one, came out and trusted to her
own acting, in the same style and with the same
amount of energy as in the United States. The
novelty OF her style surprised and delighted an
English audience; she made hit at once; all
the newspapers acknowledged her success spon-
taneousy. Forests error, however, consisted in
attempting new style, for had he been content
with playing in his original style, he would have
been more successful. However, l am not with
out hopes he may yet make a hit in London, if
he will avoid the vain ambition of seeking to set
himself up as rival to Macready and others in
their own conventional manner. If he will stick
to his own manner, and play here as he did in
the United States, no doubt he will succeed much
better. He is already gradually returning to his
old theatrical tracks in the provinoes-hence his
greater success in the provincial theatres than in
London.
