Secretary Chase received q telegraphic dispatch
today from St. Louis, confirming the report that

camille community who have been required to pay
duty on their stocks are complaining bitterly that
goods, supposed to have arrived in foreign vessels
at New Orleans, have been sent by the custom

them the payment Of duties. The Government
will adopt measures for the payment Of duties q,

THE TRENr CASE sETTLED.

The Trent affair has been settled. Mason

ish minister BY what conveyance they will
so TO England, or when they will start, is rot
yet known The fofmalites to be dissolved
in the delivery Of the men have probably been
arranged, and we presume they will leave soon,
and all the people doubtless say now, THE
sooner the better" Ii is thought in Boston
that they are not worth the cost OF their board,
and we have no disposition whatever to nnd
fault with this opinion The seizure OF those
men was a popular act. because 1t gratIted the
desire TO be reyenged on the rebel rlngleaders,
to thwart their plans, to have them Ill our
mower. to hold them in duress, in a word, to
triumph over them and their conspiracy Be-
yond this there was really but little If any
thing to be acquired by taking them.
jeff Davis and his conductors will NOT be
glad TO hear that this question has been set
tied They have said it could not be settled,
and that war between England and the United
States was inevitabe-said it eagerly, because
they desired to have it so. Such a war would
save them from ruin, open their ports, and put
them in condition to defy us at all points.
So they have believed, and the prospect of
rupture between our government and Great
Britain has filled them with exultation. The
removal of this hope will be likely to fill them
with despair. And all their sympatllizers III
the loyal states may be expected to raise an
cutlery against the government somewhat in
the strain OF speeches that have been deliv-
cred in congress by Vallandigham and others.
In this they may be Joined by few others,
some of them being too much "enthused" by
Yankee Doodle to be as cool and reasonable
as the occasion requires, and others being con-
trolled by an irrepressible talent for acting
with the opposition The people generally in
the loyal states will regard this action of the
government with satisfaction and feeling of
relief
In Great Britain, the people will find it rather
awkward business 10 manage the result of this
diplomatic correspondence. 1t is not what
they expected. 1t will find them quite unpre-
pared to receive it, and TIE sudden transition
from beligereut bowling to surprise, and per-

CITY AND COUNTY.

MUSICALE. ID. Allen, whose love for what
is best in music is only surpassed by his
bounty, iratiied his friends by another choice
and satisfactory concert, last Saturday after.
noon, at Washburn Hall. The programme in
cluded one of Haydns sparkling trios for the
pano violin, and viooncello; trio by Mozart
for piano, violin, and viola; a Beethoven
sonata Tor piano and violin; and fiery
polonaise by Chopin for the piano, nicely
PLAYED by Mr.. Allen, and with great spirit.
Aicssrs Stearns and Burt, whose violonce!lo
and violin have done such good service in the
past, were joined on this occasion by Mr..
Catln, and the Instrumental performances
throughout were distinguished by admirable
spirit, delicacy, and expression. Besides, there
was a Cradle Song by Bach, given with the
utmost feeling by Miss Whiting, who had
equal success in two beautiful songs by B. d.
Allen, suggested by Charles Kingsley's little
poem, "fhere sits a Bird on every Tree" and
miriam Song Of Triumph" by Schubert, in
troduced several well appreciated vocalists
who sustained the solos and choruses. The
Mozart trio, which SO delightfully."- closed the
entertainment, suggested how agreeable it
would be to listen to such concert every
Saturday. Mr.. Aliens friends. whose name is
lee ion, must remain deeply indebted to him
and his associates for the music that has been
so freely given them this winter.
We learn that the Mendelssohn Quintette
Club of Boston are DESTROYS to give concert
here sometime. in the early part of January.
This is good news.

OssIAN L. DODGE, the poetic and humorous
vocalist, is in New England again, and is to
give one of his irresistible concerts at Wash
burn Hall, tonight, assisted by William Hay
ward, the balladist. To Illustrate the effect
he has produced out west, we clip The follow
ing from the Onondaga Gazette -
"rhe fact is, so Irresistible were Mr.. Dodge's
sales, and So indescrlba6ly funny was he in
all that he said and did, that we laughed SO up
roariously that in order 10 give it vent, we
were obliged TO open our mouth SO wide that
the top OF our head was only held on by Il
small isthmus of skin near the organ 0! ''phio-
progeuitveness We roared all the way to
our house aft the audience was dismissed,
disturbing the echoes, roosters, and the neigh
bors with our noisy gee, aud after we had re-
tired To bed, SO repeated ard continued were
our ordinations, that our wtes patience ut
length became exhausted, aud she eventually
dried us up by ihrusing her night cap down
our throat with the end Of the rGlling-pin
AS closing remark, we will add that Mr..
Dodge's songs and humorous illustrations are
free from evcrythin coarse, low, or obscene,
and nothing is presented Which can reasonably
offend even the religious eye or ear. The
highest compliment we can pas MIR. Hayward
is TO say that his singing Is the eloquence OF
music, if such an expression Is allowable His
performance was all true TO the life and SO eX-
quisitely rendered that the scenes and incl
dents OF the song seemed to be real things then
transporting and passing under the immediate
notice of the assembiage. Mr.. Hayward is
the best ballad singer III America"
