The CoNoEnT LAST EvENINc.-The Concert
of Madame Anna Bishop, at Armory Hall last
evening, was an entertainment Of surpaSsing
merit. Her voice closely resembles that Of
Alboni. The execution of her pieces evinces
the most elaborate and perfect cultivation. In
the sweetness of her ballad singing, she is un.
surpassed. d g .,; s..s. - .v
AS Pianist, Gustave De Spiess stands at
the head of his profession, He would not suf-
fer in comparison with stradilla, or any Of the
distinguished Pianists that have made thier ap-
pearance in this country.
This distinguished lady will give another
concert this evening, and the Hall will IN.
doubtedly be filled to its utmost capacity.
The entertainment is Of the very highest char.
acter, and should secure the patronage Of our
citizens, wherever refined or cultivated taste
prevails. st ,1l ri -e1.'A .ea *s*

The New York Tribune says:
WASHINGTON, March 25.
A letter was received on Saturday from
a member Of the Montgomery Cabinet,
by the principal banking house here sta
ting confidently that the writer expected
TO dine in Washington next winter in his
Official oOpacity, and bo regularly estNb-
lishcd at this Capital. The game is to
make old stroke, by which the South
will be consolidated, and then, by the aid
of the Northern Democracy to force the
! Constitution ofthe Southern Confcdora-
cy upon all the States but New England.
This scheme may appear chimerioal, but
II is seriously entertained, and has an
organized support in the North to-day
IL is short mode Of amending the Con-
sttution, which the conspirators know
could not bo accomplished through Con-
gross or II Convention Of the States. -
The managers of this Revolution never
expected TO stay out permanently. But
they have organized the machinery SO az
10 provide for that contingency; and to
hoodwink the public if it did not hap
pen.

NuffI

A Washington correspondent Of the
New York Covrisr and Enquirer gives
the following incident af occurring last
Friday
To-day on eminent Democrnt said TO
crowd Of politicians who stood around
him into smokug-room at Willerd's:
'1'm politically opposed, 5s you well know
TO this Administration, but 30 fer a. the
character The men who compose it are
concerned, we've not had 80 respectable
a Government since I've been in the
Senate. And there's another thing I'm
willitg 70 suy, tnd that is those who a.,
sort that Mr.. Lincoln means anything
but peace in bis inaugural know or ought
to know better. This Administration is
to be a peaceful one, aud moreover one
that viii read psH IN history" Consid-
cradle applause greeted this expression
Of honest confidence in the Government
from a political opponent. The fact is
that these ardent patriots who get up in
the Senate aud ash what Nj. Lincoln
"meansl" by this phrase or that in bis
Inaugural, and who pretend % doubt his
intentions, do bat pretend to feel this
want Of confidence.
