Mobile Advertiser, speaking of her concert in that

could wish for On one side brilliant array oil
beauty and youth, the other, the fair cantatrice
diiang with the excitement of the moment and
pouring forth volume of sound which for purity
and hne meditation cannot be surpassed. She has
attained and holds prominence in the musical
world which few vocalsts arrive to, and though
years have passed since her fame rang through both
hemspheres, she shows no signs of failing, but still
holds her power unimpaired. We have in heI
evidences of what the voice is capable and to wha
degree of perfection it can be brought through
cultivation. It is with her as an instrument in the
hands OF a skiful psTfOrmer; every note brough
forth in perfection and vitalized by :he ruling power

SENATOR SoULE.-The recent able effort of
Senator Soule, against the compromise plan, has
elected the highest concentrations from some quar-
ters. The Washington correspondent of the North
American says:
"He ranks among the most finished orators in
Congress- Besides being gifted with great natural
powers, his mind has evidently been subjected to
that severe system OF discipline, which education,
taste and close study ofthe ancient masters enoin as
necessary to approach perfection or to ensure sue
cess. Superadded to these qualities he has studied
dramatic effect, and made himself an artist of ex-
ceence
Few men in the Senate, or out oft, are more i'm
pressve and earnest. His diction is choice and
pure, affecting no high-sounding defamation or
boisterous elocutiOn, but coursing gracefully, like
Che water of a natural stream In all that he at
tempts he succeeds, without effort or parade. The
eye, the ear, the sympathy and the heart of his
audience, attracted from the outset and the in
terest is preserved unhagging, without feeling OF
WEAKNESS or a dstracting thought He has just
enough Of foreign accent (being Frenchman) give
pleasing effect to his speech Altogether, he is one
of the most accomplished speakers whom it has
been my good fortune to hear, during period o
observation by no means limited.
His effort to-day was not intended as a display
of oratory. 1t was c0gent, powerful and logical
examination Of the leading features of the compro
| mise, by Southern Senator fully adequate to the
task realizing the full extent of his sectional res
possibility, and quite competent to cope with even
the most able who differed from his positions.

From SANTA FE.-A small detachment of
troops from Santa Fe, under the command of Capt.
Judd, reached ST. Louis on the 24th ult., in the
steamer Princeton, and Immediately proceeded to
jefferson Barracks. The company numbers twenty
six privates, with the same number of horses.
Captain Brent late United States Quartermaster at
Santa Fe, came down also in the same boat. Col.
Washington, Ex-Governor, arrived day or two
before in the steamer Tuscumbia, and proceeded to
Washington.

THE RIvERs.-The Illinois river is reported by
the St. Louis papers of the 25th ult, as quite low

The river falling, with but feet 10 in ehes on
Hennepn flats. Travellers to the North via the
Lakes, will find this drawback.
The Missouri continues in fair navigable con-
dtion.
At Natchez, on the 2sth ult, the Mississippi
was slowly rising.
At Vicksbnrg, on the 28th ult., the Wing" re-
ports within two inches of the highest rise of last

CONGRESSIONAL We have received tele.
graphic summary of the proceedings of Congress on
the oath ult, being twentY-four hours in advance
of the mail. On the 23d, the resolutions in regard
to the Cuba expedition, were passed in the Senate.
There was nothing of interest in the House. On
the oath, in the House, bill for the construc-
tion of roads'and bridges in Oregon, was referred
to Committee of the Whole. The bill to increase
the rank and file of the army for the protection of
the Western frontiers was passed. In the Senate
the bill making compensation to land officers for
locating military bounty warrants was passed.
Mr.. Bradbury's resolution relative to removals
from office was taken up. Mr.. Webster desired to
make few remarks upon the resolution, and it was
made the order of the day for Tuesday next
A bill to provide additional security to the lives
and property of persons navigating the Western
waters was introduced.
The Senate then took up the consideration of the
bill establishing a branch mint in New York
Several amendments were proposed and debated
upon, when the further consideration was post
pOned till Monday, to which time the Senate ad-
iourned.
