SUMMARY.


Our Geographic dispatches, yesterday, were
of great variety and interest.
The correspondence between the Secretary of
War and Gen. Scott, recently sent in TO the
House of Representatives, occasioned in that
body yesterday one of most rafting and unique
debates that has taken place this session. Some
singular Developments Were made in the course
of the discussion, well calculated to arrest the
attention of all curious in party maneuvrings.
A short report of this rare political tournament
will be found below. No important public bust
ness was transacted in either house of Congress.
An arrival at Boston from the Coast of Africa,
furnishes intelligence of sharp encounter on
the coast between one of H. B. MS vessels OF
war and a slave steamer. The latter escaped
without much difficulty. The introduction OF
steam vessels into the slave trade, is q new fea.
ture, and, it is feared, will add much to the
IMMUNITY with which that nefarious traffic has,
In many instances, been hitherto carried on.

OPERA AND FASHION The old proverb says
1T never rains but it pours'' 1t is now an
nounced that Benedict and Rosi, two highly
competent artists, have made arrangements to
resuscitate the Italian Opera at the Astor House
Theatre, up town. They will probably COM
mence next Monday, and give twenty nights be-
fore the departures take place, when the fashion
able, the beautiful, the gay, the witty aud the
silly begin to leave for the country. We now
hear, also, that that original genius and stirring
man, Colonel Mann, of the Broadway, has been
busy negotiating with Italian materials for new
Italian Opera company, which is to play two or
three nights in the week at the Broadway
Theatre so much for the exclusives, as for
the whole world of New York What these
materials are which Col. Mann has fallen upon
we have not heard but probably Bscaccianti,
with her splendid voice, and some of those ar
lists who have travelled with her on her concert
expeditions, may be intended. The revival of
the Italian Opera up town, and the opening of
similar demonstration down town, will certain
ly produce great musical and operate excite
ment among all classes in New York and cannot
fail to make a prosperous season for both of
them If these two companies should be organ
ised, they ought by no means to play on the same
nights together, but should give alternate nights,
by all means. Benedict, Truffi, and the others
with them, possess decided merits, and deserve
all the encouragement and applause they have
received. Biscaccianti, also, has proved herself
worthy the encouragement she has met with,
and there can be no doubt that she and those
associated with her, probably Nine Pico, will
draw full houses.
We cordially wish success to both parties. 1t
will be short season, but the result will be bril-
liant, and source of delight, not to the paltry
exclusives of particular section alone, but to
the taste, beauty and splendor of all classes of
this vast metropolis.
