RETURN OF THE VoLuNrEEEs.-T Woods
Ritlemrn, Major l.ainb, and the Portsmouth
National Greys, Captain Deans, arrived here
this IN ,ining in the Steamer Louisiana. The
two companies lett Charle.town yesterday
morning at til O'Clock, and arrived in Bal

where they were met at the depot by
Committee from the Baltimore City Guard,
aud escorted to their Armory, where
sumptuous collation. awaited their arrival;
and after 4ning ample. jaat ce to it, the li:e
of march atain taken up tor the boat.
and amid the cheers and huzzas OF A tie-

1t was the intention Of the Juniors, Greys
and Blues 70 meet the Rifles at the wharf
this III 'rniug, and act escort, but it
was thoroughly reported Yesterday that they
would not arrive until Tomorrow morning,
consequently the Rifles stole the marcia on
them.

HlufEoW Ei2ut at tht JuAloI hTIh"ty,
where wit, gooi humor and sentiment must

On reaching Port smouth, the whole 3rd
Regiment was in w.iting, and under its s.
cort, the Greys marched through the city.
and at eight O'Clock were dismissed to go to
ther homes once again.
, On their leaving Charlestown yesterday
morning, General 'raliaferrn ordered a sa-
lutte of fifteen guns i'll honoi OF the Battal-
ion. This is the first body Of soldiery thus
hopored on their departure from Charles
town; and is a testimony by no means insig

TuE LATEST WeNDER. We see it annouu.
ced by one of our contemporaries that one
Doctor Randolph, Spiritual Medium, has
given notice that on some future occasion,
(rather an indefinite period he will appear
in three different places, four hundred miles
apart, sat the same instant of time" All
we can say, is, that If he accomplishes this
really difficult feat, he will be the most re-
markable instance of presence OF mind and
body. 1t is lucky for the great Edgliostro
that he has left this mundane sphere in
time to allow DR.. Randolph and such of that
ilk' to remain undsputed master in the field
of Charlatnism. That such proposition
should be made, is perhaps not so wonderful
as that it should no doubt find many believ-
ers
DR.. Randolph knows his business, and il
he does not accomplish the seeming paradox
of being here, there and everywhere at the
same instant, it will not be from lack of con-
fdence, of which doubtless he has treble al
lowance, as he has or preten DIS to have Of
body and mind. Such a person is real
Ceberus. A right angled spiritual medium
is a novelty, but as we are in an age ofpro.
gress, il would be unbecoming in US to doubt
what we candidly confess, we do not under
stand. We are further informed that II
(eh, that little word) he succeeds the matter
will be brought before the leading scientific
bodies of Europe and this country for in
vestigation.
To this praiseworthy resolution, no reas
enable man can have objection. fine sue
ceeds, certainly let the matter be at once
brought before the scientific bodies OF Eu-
rope and this country, go further, let Asia
and A frica be invited to examine the matter
If he succeeds. All the Magicians we ever
heard of came from Asia and Africa, there
fore it would be unjust to exclude those
countries. DR.. Randolph will have the judg-
ment of the four quarters of the globe, on
his wonderful power of being ubiquitous,
and will doubtless receive all due praise | F

Landscape Painting.

THE undersigned is now prepared to give
Instructions in Landscape Painting. His
peculiar method of instruction is entirely ORR
ginal, and imparts at once to the pupil pro-
per conception of color.ng so immensely neces-
sary to become finished artist. Those desir-
Gus to take advantage of this opportunity to
learn an Art in few lessons, which the sub.
scriber has been over 80 years maturing, this
rare chance is offered to them, He can con.
vince the most incredulous, that in two les
sons he has impaired more knowledge of the
art, than is usually gained by years Of applica.
ton and study by the old system, as taught in
the various schools and seminaries throughout
the United States. Terms of thorough instruc-
ton, $50, payable in advance perfect satisfac-
ton guaranteed. For further information call
on the undersigned at his studio, on Main street,
over Dawes Dry Goods Store and opposite the
site of the Mechanics Hall.
Gy- p. SIN consequence Of professional
engagements, the undersigned would request
that those DESTROYS of taking advantage OF his
system OF tuition, will come forward at the
opening of the class on Monday nov 2Sth,
which positively closes on the cath OF pecem-
her 1859. as he will be otherwise engaged after
