three millions surplus in the Treasury on the
LIST Of July. This is the prosperous condition
a Wing Administration leaves the country in,
yet we everlastingly hear the Democracy
prating over Wing extravaganza about cleo
ton times, and telling the dear people that
the Wings are not fit to be trusted with the
public money. When did ever Democratic
Administration leave surplus in the Treas
ury On the other hand they have always
left exhausted Golfers and an accumulated
debt. Already the organs Of the party are
setting to work to devise some plan to spend
the surplus left by the Wings. AS the os
tensible means Of making way with it, they
propose to plunge the country headlong into
another war. The people need give them
selves no concern about the disposition of this
surplus. A Democratic Administration can
spend it Rich Wig

! This celebrassd vursiist will soon visit
Marti6sbufg, and eivs one Of her Grand
Dress and Costume CUaesrts. Her adver-
dsement appears in another column, in this
morning. Gazette. An exchange paper thus
speaks Of Madame Anna
aThis celebrated cantatrice, gave one Of
her grand costume concerts at the Masonic
Hall on last evening, 70 crowded and de-
lighted audience. Of her fame, it is unne-
cessary that We should speak, as almost ev-
cry man, woman and child in our community
has heard Of her time and again. That her
worldwide reputation is deserved, we can
bear personal tcstimony--having heard her
on several previous occasions with mingled de-
light. Her voice is smooth and flexible, Gid
ing with accuracy through the labyrinth of
sound and withal there is such deep mel
ody in every note she utters, that it seems to
US the beings Of a higher existence might
stop to listen. Unlike many of our celebra-
ted cantatrices, whose manner freezes, while
their execution astonishes. Madame Bishop
possesses, in an eminent degree, the power of
giving soul to sound, and thus reaching the
heart as well as the ear. This is the true
secret Of her power. Like the first stealthy
droppiDgs Of the coming storm, she approaches
you; and after gradually relieving your sus-
pense, pours forth such torrent Of song that
the delighted soul is lsf bathing in sea of
melody whence it would never escape.
The touches Of Signor Bochsa on the harp
are indeed exquisite, and add not little to
the interest of the entertainment.
