ADJUSTMENTS FOR THE SEASON.

At Barnum's Museum, there is new fairy-spec-
tacle drama, founded on the Rbensh legend Of
Undine. Persons who go 10 the Museum pre- pared
only TO witness theatrical piece as an addendum to
the more serions business Of 1. The great grizzly
bear; p The hippopotsmus; B. The whale 4. The
anaconda; >. Tie ishes in general, and 6. The Gu
riosities in particularwi be surprised to find the
elaborate care and brillisncy which have been law
ished upon tie play of Urdine. knight in real
armor; men at arms women at the same to the
number Of over a score; lovely fairies; bewilder.
ing scene Of beauty under the waves, where nymphs
dsport in apparently real water and the atmosphere
is luminous with reflected submundane tiDts from
water grottoes plants and shels-this is only part
of the four-act piece under the above name. To this
must be added the love story the comic business, the
malice Of gnomes, and 90 forth, which delight the
audience and cause the curtain to fall amid Tempest
OF applause. Tie orchestra is increased to meet tue
numerous musical acquisitions of the spectacle.
At the Winter Garden, "The Lakes Of Kiar-
ney" is continued to the deecaion of crowded
houses.
At Wallack's, "Up at the Hills" so beautifully
put On the stage, is the vogue.

Two new pieces were presented last night with all

lisbment. The fist il a dramatizaiion adapted TO the

Dickens II has the moral in it which always other
things equal, lends value to the stage The central
character l. Skinner the miser whose dream works q
change of heart. The vision is put in action Of
course on the stage, and accordingly we bad matter
which kept the house In good humor. We could
suggest that part Of the dream which introduces a
corpse on bed stripped Of curtains, is too material
Ii is repulsive and in bad taste. The piece had q
strong cast: Miss Keene herself doing the lame boy,
and Messrs. Stoddart, Peters, Marlowe, Barnett
Miss Sara Stevens, Miss Lofty Hough, and Others
contributed to it. Ii has no. the interest of well
developed drama, bat will answer az piece de CIR
constance.

The Results il "a Prophecy!

There is a divinity shaping the course of
this war, and we must accept its fortunes
and its misfortuncs with equal trust and
hopefuncss. There is one thing, and only
one, at the bottom of the fght-and that is
the negro. And vet, both North and South
are studiously ignoring the face, and deceiv-
Ing themselves ard trying to deceive the
world rs to the eauseo OF quarrel. The South
prctcnds to he fighting ior indcpendenec-
but ii is fighting for the establishment OF hui
man bondage as the basis OF republican gov
ernment. The North, or loyal States, claim
to be fighting for the re-cstablishment of
the Constitution and laws, and to have no
thought of property or social institution in
their minds. But they know that until
slavery changes it, relation to Government,
and becomes its complete subjeet. instead of
the arrogant master, the peace and safety of
the Il public are impossible
If our army had been victorious at Ma
nassas they would have marched on to Rich
moud, and cUlcl this war on false basis :;
both parties ignoring II the last the cause
Of the VAR. The God that rules over all and
docs exact Justice in the end. t. bond and
free, would not permit compromise Of this
sort to fortstaI HI. providence. And he has
awakened the nation as by the shock OF an
earthquake.
Would anything short of our unexpected
repulsc at Manassas have quicken-d the con
science and Judgment Of twenty millions oil
people in regard to this couilict? The ghost
OF long-muraertd liberty to millions of weak
and despliriug captivcs leaves its tomb, and
haunte our Army, and frights it u pnie
and flight. How shall we learn, anew and

q" An | TOLD YoU So. The number Of
wise men, who, since the battle of the Dist
allude to their own sagacity by repeating the
heading to this paragraph, is quite large
These men are always right, they never
make mistake, they never suffer another to
make one for them, they are always fortu-
nate in their enterprises, successful in their
plans and therefore are burning and shining
lights in the world If stubborn facts did
not prove otherwise We should be inclined to
believe that the :. al, told yop So class Of
humans were something more than human
that they belonged to higher order Of Gre
ated beings, but when thorough scrutiny i.
instituted into their history like all other be.
lngs Of which we have any personal knowledge
their career III life is covered all over with
human weaknesses and consequent mistakes.
We have come to conclude that this happy
class of our fellow beings, are therefore, only
different from ordinary mortals, in that a
certain portioniof their oFlnium is slightly
elevated.

ENLlsrING SEANEN.-We understand that
recruiting Offices for seamen are opened in
many places but we do not know Of any in
Maine Why is this The Government COM
plains that men for the naval service come in
slowly, while it is evident that there are thou
sands Of men in the shore towns in Maine men
who have been educated on the deep blue
sea, who would readily enlist in the govern
ment service, if suitable encouragement was
offered and they had the opportunity. We
have been repeatedly inquired Of as to the
inducements offered by the government for
recruits, and as to where recruiting
Office could be found. We believe that quite
large number of men could lie enlisted in
this county, We heard men who volunteer
ed in the Land service say they should rather
enlist in the navy.
