THE FoREsT FEsTIyAL."-We take pleasure in
calling the attention of our readers to the advertise
ment of Grand Musical Entertainment, the Fairy
Operatta ofthe Forest Festival to be given at Phelps
Hail. in this City, on Tuesday evening next, by Mr.
c Robbins with 200 performers This will undoubt
eddy be the entertainment OF the season, and our
ctzens Of course will not forego the pleasure Of at
tending it, Mr.. Robbins has met with the most I'M
bounded success in bringing out this Operotta in
other cities, is testified by the press wherever he
has been. The Chicago Democratic Press says of
"Ihe Spectacle the most beautiful which has
ever been witnessed in our city, The Chicago Iimes
says It would be impossible to convey in language
an accurate or adequate conception of this brilliant
spectacle" The Chicago Tribune says: The Forest
Festival is indeed beautiful Operetta, slevating in
its characted and producing good effect both upon
the performers and the auditors. Says the Chicago
Journal.
THE FAIRY OpERErrA.-We confess TO difficult
ty in the adequate expression of abstraction expe
rieneed by US, as by the whole of the immense
dence which last evening filed metropolitan Hall
to its utmost capacity. Hundreds had left the house
when entered, and sitting and even Standing
room had well nigh disappeared 1t is severe test
Of entertainment that, of summers night
must form one of density packed standing
crowd but Mr. Robbins has achieved that triumph.
We subscribe TO the sentiment Of one elderly citizen
whom we saw leaving the Hall at the close OF the
Concert and upon whom the throng of FOOT HAD
done its worst he had decidedly crushed and fiat
tened aspect and seemed generally rather the
for the experience ofthe evening. lie had stood he
assured us, upwards ofaH hour the of setee,
and yethe enthusiastic at his age remarkablyso.
1t PAID, God bless them, it paid was his expression,
and we rc-echo it, IT PAID.
We refer our readers to the advertisement and to
the circular which viii be distributed in day or
two for the particulars ofthe entertainment suggea
ting that all who do not attend win have for
regret when it is too late.

The blind CoRcer.-The Concert given at
Phelps Hall, in this city, on Thursday eve
evening last, by the Pupils of the State Blind
Institute, under the direction of +. G. CAMP
DELL, Professor Of music in the institute, was
very generally attended by our citizens. All
were pleased with the Concert and highly graf
fled at the proficiency exhibited by the unfortu-
nate pupils in this branch of their education
The instrumental performances were excellent,
and the cultivation evinced by the pupils, spoke
volumes in favor Of the teachers who have them
inchagge.
This exhibition and concert have given our
citizens a high estimation of the character of
the institution under its present able Supern-
tcnlcnt aud teachers. We think it is only nee
essary for the people to become aware of the
benefits Of instruction to be obtained at the In
stitutc to have all who are so unfortunate as to
need such instruction, to avail themselves Of it.
We presume there are many blind persons in
the State who have not yet entered the Institute
simply because their friends are ignorant of its
existence, or the benefits it is able to confer
To give more general information in reference
to these things was one of the objects of the
Superintendent in giving the exhibitions and
concerts.

Farm fer Sale.

We call attention to the advertisement Of
X. SMITH, of a Farm for sale, in our column
this week. The farm is situated in the town OF
Salem, about l8 miles west of this city. To
those wishing to purchase, a better chance is
seldom offered. We have been over the prem
ises, and the growing crops have convinced us
that better soil, or farm better adapted to
the growth of all the various kinds of grain
cannot be found in the country. 1t is under a
high state Of cultivation with all tine appurten
ances that 60 to make up the desirable farm.

SANTA ANNA TURNED UP AGAIN.

His most seiene Highness, General Antonia
Lopes de Santa Anna, has issued a revolutionary
manisesto from his retreat at Car:hagena which
has been extensively circulated among bis parti-
zans 10 Mexico, Cuba and wherever they may te
found. lie considers that Mexico Las been "de.
livercd up to the most horrible vandalism" and
he declares that "the time TO save the country has
come." He protests that be asks nothing for
himself, only be sincerely desires TO return TO his
country, and be wishes some one to save that coun-
try, and asks the privilege Of helping him 10 do it,
lie says Of the new Constitution:
That eonstitutiOn-the work Of immortality, the
offspring Of ignorance and the consequence Of au-
dacious prde-is the precursor Of new and more
horrible revolution that will be fomented BY all
classes and accepted by all men. II must be 81,
because the two great sentiments have been at.
tacked-ihe only two that have survived and
come safe out Of the tremendous shock that has
tested the nation the sentiment OF respect for
the family and that Of respect for religion.
1t is inevitable that such a government mus
fall, covered with iHfamy and contempt. The
men Of Mexico, united under one banner, mus
inevitably recover again their natural rights anC
their former glories. Although by my age
have now attained the last decade of my life
yet feel withinme the necessary force and valo
with which to aid the man who was destined b.
heaven to accomplish this great movement. Who
sOeyer he may be, will obey him as a ci!zel-l
will defend him as a soldier.

ENOUGH FOR ONE BED

Emigration to the Stale of Michigan was so
great during the year 1835-'36 that every house
was filed with travellers wanting lodgings. Every
taaveler at that time, will remember the difficulty
of obtaining bed in any Of the hotels even it he
was willing to put up with two or three strange
bed fellows.
The Rev Hosea Brown, an eccentric Metho-
dist minister, stopped at one of the hotels in Ann
Arbor, and inquired if he could have a room to
himself The bar-keerer told him he could, un-
less they should be so full as to render it necessary
to put another in with him, At an early hour
the reyerned gentleman went to his room, locked
the door, AMI soon retired to bed, and got com
fortably TO sleep.
Along oward midnight, he was aroused from
his slumbers by loud knocking at his door.
"Hallo, you there!'' he exclaimed, "what Dc
you want Row?" laying particular stress on th,
last word.
"You must take another lodger with you, sir
said the landlord.
"What another yet?'
4Why yes, there is only one in there is n
therel''
lone! why there's Mr.. Brown, and Metho
dist minister, and myself here already, and
should think that was enough for one bel, egea

HOW JOHN G. BRESLIN SWINDLED
THE STATE

The Sandusky Register publishes letter from
a reliable source in Columbus from which we ex-
tract the following:
Il am very confident that, as the official inves-
tigation Of the Treasury, and Of the causes which
have produced these erroneous deficits proceeds
Mr.. Gibson will be found guiltless of any official
or moral wrong; and to have been censurab!e
from undue confidence in, and reliance on the
promises and assurances of guilty predecessor
only, rather than from any moral obliquity in him
self. One thing, thus far is apparent: that Jno
G. BresIn, late Treasurer of State, had acquired
possession, during the last months of his term OIL
office, of large amounts of money, which, as the
law then stood, authorisng the Treasurer Of State
to draw on County Treasurers for portion of tht
State taxes collected, never appeared, because no
required to appear, as charges against him on th,
books Of the State Auditor. In these amounts
thus drawn from the counties, lies the mmens
defalcation just developed and in endeavorug
with the most honest motives, to secure to th
State the amounts so withheld from the Treas
ury by Mr. Breslin, his successor, Mr.. Breslin, af
ter having secured the payment of OVER THREl
HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS of this default, ha
fallen victim to misplaced confidence in the wore
Of his predecessor.
Although we cannot agree with the writer o
that letter in exhonorating Mr., Gibson from "mor
al wrong" in concealing the niquity of his broth
erin-aw, yet, we feel inclined to believe the for
mer innocent of any actual defaIcation, and tina
the result of the examination will show his state
ment to be true. We believe he committed
great error in not revealing the deficit as soon a
he discovered it, and that Gov. Chase took cor
rect view of the matter in counsellng him to re
sign.- CieV. Leader.

DEMOCRATIC ELECTION FRAUDS IN
MINNESOTA.

There is every reason to believe that in their
desperate effort to gain control over this young
State, the Egyptian Democracy resorted to the
most reckless fraud. At St. Paul the iniquity
was so apparent that the Pioneer and Democrat,
the Democratic organ. forestalls exposure as fol-
lows:
"The election yesterday was very animated and
exciting. The vote polled was unprecedentedly
large-so large, indeed, as to create weHfounded
suspicion OF. fraud to a mos, shameful ertem.-
On this subject, however, we will defer all com.
meuts, until placed in the possession of reliable
evidence. While the success of the Democratic
party is result in which we feel vital interest,
we Shall never countenance the commission of H.
legal acts to secure it,"
In this city, at the charter election, only last
month, was holly contested, the entire vote polled
one dsousaxd nine hundred and t0enty two-yet
at the recent election there were tOenty eiqht hun
