FROM WASHINGTON.

WAsHIsGros, June 29.-The Navy Department
has couiirmatory accounts Of the proceedings OF Com
modore Mcintosh at ST. Domingo. The Dominican
fleet, with the exception Of bark which is returned
to the original owner, has been given over to Santa
ma, who, with his troops, would Immediately occupy
the city.
1t is true, as rumored, that he gave Commander
McIntosh the most solemD assurances for the protec
ton of all American citizens and expresses TO our
government his great desire to maintain the nost am
icable relations with it.
BY order of the War Department military post
TO be known az Fort Abercrombie will be estabshed

companies from Fort Ripley and one from Fort
Ridgely charged with its construction. Part of Fort
Ridgely will be broken up.
The Secretary Of the Navy has instructed the bu
reau of construction to prepare drawings and panr
for buildings without unnecessary delay the e'gh'
vessels of was recently authorized by Congress.
Two will probably be constructed at the fnnau, s
phia Navy Yard and one at eaoh OF the o'ne. yasu

MISS PEGRAM'S SCHOOL.

Our readers know that we are not in the habit o
employing the language OF unmeauing compliment
in these columns, and, though it may argue a want
of fitness for the editorial position, we confess an ell
tire ignorance of that science which Mr.. Puff in the
Critic" expounds with such amusing versatility. II
we thought that what We are about to say would be
taksn by the public as mere commonplace, We should
lay down our pen, and not render an injustice to
lady who is as far above needing an idle puff as We
are above writing one. Our object in this paragraph
ia to do, what our neighbor of the Wing" did very
handsomely and justly last week-to call the stten
tion OF the people of Virginia to the high merits of
the Young Ladies' School conducted by Miss Mary
f. Pegram of this city. The second session of this
institution has just been brought to close, and the
annual circular of its operations hns ust been ,sued
from which we learn that the third session will begin
on the st day OF Oct next Tothose parents who have
already had daughters under Miss Pegrams charge no
word of commendation from any quarter ia necessary
in behalf Of the school, but to such as are looking out
for educational advantages for young ladies in the
coming eoholnstic year. We would most warmly com.
mend 1t, and We feel that in doing We are rather
comforting benefit on tue possible patrons than on
the teacher. We speak from personal knowledge
when We say that the instructions of this school are
as sound as its discipline is adrable and that under
the law Of kindness the pupils a-e led to love study
for its own sake and to improve to the fulle, extent
the advantages afforded them. While every branch
embraced IN the course is taught by the most tom
pe.ent instructors, the classes under the irnm,
date direction of Miss Pegram enjoy peculiar prv-
leges in acquiring proper acquaintance with the
much neglected study of Elocuon in its connection
with the bellies ettres. What a beautiful accom-.
plishment in woman is reading we'll, and yet how few
of our young ladies possess t-how few of them can
take up volume Of standard poetry and 'lend to
the rhyme of the poet the music of their voice.
Perhaps there are ten girs-ornaments of society
who can sing Una Voce ps.ssby we'll for one who can
read aloud with just emphasis and proper infection
the Penseroso of Milton, or Grsys Elegy IN a
Country Church. Yard. We refer to this matter of
Eocuton because we consider il of no little impor-
tance, and We know that very small attention has
hitherto been paid to it in many Southern female sem
lnaries. We believe, however, that in all other
matters, as in this, s the high aim of Miss Pegrsm
to At the young ladies entrusted to her care to be
the Joy and delight Of the circle in which they are TO
pass their womanhood and make them alike the pol
lshed corners Of the temple" And We have the
liveiest confidence that her school will be regarded
with greater and greater favor as each succeeding
year gives to the public of ts
usefulness.

The Vigilance Committee meeting that to have

programme" The decided tone OF the letters of His
Excellency and His Honor warned these msdcsps
that they were engaged in very foolish and danger

put down any such disorder sooner than Richmond
The mayor knows his responsibility, and when re-,

the unlawful negro aesemblages, the benefit of in.
