n. Julien, the Kusicia n.

On the night before last, NJ. Julien s
first concert in America was given at
New York, to large audience. of course.
He is destined to cause excitement where
ever he goes in this country, and, as a
consequence, to line his pockets we'll. He
is q capital instrumentalist, a musical
genius of the first water, perhaps the
best arranger for effect now living, and,
withal, next to BaInum himself in shrewd-
ness as manager. Vide his career in
London and elsewhere on the continent
As a composer he is only famous for light
pieces, marches, waltzes, gallopades, &C.,
&c. All such gems which he sends forth
are generally pronounced even superior
to those OF Strauss. His forte, however,
IS decidedlyin combining and drilling his
orchestras, and in so arranging all music
to be played by them, as that he manages
to get out of every instrument and every
performer the very best they can accom-
plish, by way of making up the sum total
of delightful evenings entertainment.
His present company numbers ninety
two performers, twenty-five of whom
came with him from Europe, nearly all of
them being decided stock" celebrities.
Tie understands the art of reaching the
eyes If not the ears of the public before
the doors open, to a charm. Thus he
has managed to occupy with bis affairs
column after column Of the northern dai.
lies, ever since his arrival in this country.
Of course We will have him here; and of
course all lovers OF music in Washington
will attend his concerts, which will give
us, who can't get over to Europe, better
idea of the reality of the great concerted
Instrumentation of the musical capitals
of the Old World, than was ever before
attainable in the United States.

morrow, are now in the city. Barnum' hotel

canvassing is on foot The current of senti-
ment appears to be in favor Of Thomas Swami,
Esq. Mr.. Calvert has many friends, but the
idea is entertained TO some extent that he
does not desire the nomination. The Wings
are in good spirits. and tolerably sanguine of
success. They certainly have the virtue of
perseverance,, and fight we'll under all circum-
stances. Defeat does not destroy or weaken
their courage.
The water question il now absorbing con
siderable attention in our city The Councils
were in special session this afternoon to re-
cieve and consider the report of the commits

ant matter to be decided, is whether the water
shall be brought from the Patapsco or Gun.
powder rivers. From the former it can be OBJ
tained at a distance of about three miles. and
from the latter some fifteen miles The pro-
liability is that the Patapsco may be eventu-
ally adopted.
Ny friend and much esteemed fellow-towns-
man, Joshua Vansant, is busily engaged, since
his nomination, in paving the way for future
political operations. He will get very large
vote, and be elected beyond the shadow of
doubt. Mr.. Preston will gain no permanent
popularity in opposing him. Mr. Vansant is
just the kind OF common sense working man
that should be in the halls Of our national
legislature. He is practical in all respects,
and tempered with sound, solid judgment.

to the the treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo
after it's ratification, which was sent to all
the foreign Ministers at Washington, and
Mr.. Clayton's answer thereto. The edi-

aver, on account of their interest to Amer

far as the rights of individual citizens of
the United States may be affected by that
