\ BRrTrsu SrY IN THE Fu.LrBUsrER CAM
Considerable feeling is manifested in some "fast"
circles on account of the fact that the principal
witness produced by the Government against
Capt. Hicks and others, charged with being fill
busters, and now on examination before the u
S. Commissioner, swears that he is a Major in
the British army, servingin Prince Albert $ reg
iment, aud now on leave of absence at salary
of 81 IS Cd sterling per day. This gentleman
according to his own account, took passage with
the accused parties, in the Star of the West for
Nicaragua, watched their movements there, and
returned to give information here, "for the ben
eft of the public" The counsel for the accused
charged that the witness was a spy of the Brit
ish Government, but Mr.. McKeon frankly avov :
ed in open Court that he set the whole matter on
foot himse'c This, the Fillibustcrs say, is proof
positive that the witness is spy in pay Of our
Government as well as an officer in the Prince
Albert Regiment, and it is significantly asked
whether an appropriation has been made to de-
fray the expense of such espionage. 1t is a
comfortat least, they say, that if Mr.. McKeon
regularly employed a spy, he was obliged to
seek him among the officers of the British army,
for no American could be found mean enough
to undertake the job.

HINTS on THE WAEDRoBE-Ladics should
bear in mind tllat silk articles should not be
kept folded in white paper, as the chloride of
lime used in bleaching the paper will probably
impair the color; the brown or blue paper is far
better, aud the yellowish, smooth India paper is
best of all.
Silks intended for dresses should not be kept
long in the house before they are made mp, as
lying in the folds will have tendency to impair
its durability by causing it to cut or split, par
ticuarly il the silk has been thickcned and stiff
ened by gum. Thrcadlacc wells are very, easily
cut But dresses Of velvet should not be laid
by with weight on them; if the nap of a thin
velvet is laid down, it is not possible to raise it
up again. Hard silk should never be wrinklcd,
because the thread is easily broken, and itncvcr
can he rectifed.
The way to take the wrinkles out of silk scarEs
and handkerchicfs is to moisten the surface even
" with sponge and some weak glue, and then
pin the silk with some toilet pins around the sell
wages on mattress or feather bed, taking pains
to draw out the silk rs tight rs possible; when
dry, the wrinkles have disappeared Itisanicc
matter to dress light colored silk, and few should
try it. Some silk articles should be slightly
moistcncd with weak glue or gum-water, and
the wrinkles ironcd out by u hot tat-iron on the
wrong side.

CAMILLE IL THE CREscENr CrTT.-AIiss Matil-
da Heron, the great Camille, made her last ap.
pearance in that character, Oh the occasion of a
most brilliant Benefit, at the Gaicty Thcatcr, in
New Orleans, on Saturday, the 18th inst. Her
engagement was series of triumphant Success
scs, and continued four weeks, during which she
impcrsonated Camille seventeen times. The
Etenjng Delta thus speaks of the iifthteen rep
sentation of her celebrated role:
| We never saw the accomplished actress in n
better mood; she appeared DESTROYS to put forth
her best powers, and it was admitted by all who
witnessed the performance that she eXcclled her
selfin the pathoS, anguish love and beauty, which
she infused into the character of Camille.
We have seen different versions of this piece,
band different representatives Miss Davenport
played it; Miss Ince gave us very striking rem
dering of it; so did Mrs Julia Dean Haync, and
other actresses of reputation and talent. But
VIC unhesitatingly assert that Miss Heron is the
easy victor amongst them-the bet Camille on
the English stage. She has every requisite for
the correct representation Of the dame dur CT
RliLiaS exquisite powers of coQuctry, deep feel
ing running beneath them, almost StatncSQuc
grace in passionate moments, and a countenance
which changes with every sentiment, like the
surface of the mountain stream, on q march day
of alternate light and shadow.
Her eyes exercise an almost magical power
the mcsmerism ofgenius-and, without being n
faultless beauty, she wields fascination as COM
plete rs that which resided in the ccstus of Beau
tvs queen. Those dark, deep cyes-''tlark and
deep as faten-and that shower Of rich hair, fall
ing round square, well-sct forehead, which ex-
hibits no waste of space, and has not square
inch unoccupied by brain, are outward evidences
of the fry soul within.
The acting of Miss Heron throushoat,,thc piece
is remarkably original, but it is in the last act
that she proves her right to claim a position
among the really great artistes of the dramatic
world.
When Camille approached the looking-glass,
and saw her altered features and wasted figure,
her attitude, her fixed horror, her agonizcd alu-
sion to the change, were the contamination Of
the most genuine art, uncqualed, except by the
wild ccstacy ofjoy-the last spasm of triumph
when Armand returns to sec her die in his
arms
Miss Heron was called OUT at the close of
the piece and overwhelmed with bouquets from
every side. She might have exclaimed with
yoltaire, You are smothering me with roses. :"

EXPERIMENTS WITH CAsr IRox.-The intc.-
esting fact is developed by experiments in the
o. S. Ordnance Department, that iron by re-
peated fusion up to certain heat number of
times, is thereby greatly improved in strength.
Guns cast solidly, and those cast hollow, through
whichTatter water was made to circulate after
casting, showed an astonishing difference in the
relative strength the difference being in favor of
the hollow cast gun, which is attributed to the
method of cooling; the solid gun, contracting
rom the outside, cxerting strain upon the par
:iclcs of the metal in the same direction as the
train of the discharges. The experiments also
showed that old castings are great deal stron-
ger than new. Eight-inch guns, proved thirty
lays after being solid cast stood but q charges;
me hundred days f91 charges; and six years,
1859 charges This phenomena is accounted
or by surprising that the particles strained in
the cooling re-adiust themselves in the course
If time to their new position, and become free
,r nearly so. These are important facts for en-
sinecTs-
