WEsLEYs WAR TABLEAUx, was exhibited
last night at Deerng Hall to a large and enthu-
siastic audience. The paintings will well bear
the striclest criticism, being in every respect
truthful, accurate and highly flushed, forming
complete history of the present war, from
the evacuation of Fort Moultrie, down to the
great battle of Antietam. The artist, must
have had work of no small difficulty to CON
tend with when they undertook to paint the
various battle scenes and tragic incidents with
which their highly instructive entertainment
Is teeming. 1t would be impossible for us to
enumerate the large number of scenes presen-
ted TO the beholder, but among those deserving
the greatest notice we may mention the 7th
New York regiment marching down Broadway,
and the departure from Portland of the 1st
Maine regiment. They are both master works
OF painting producing a life like resemblance
to those exciting scenes truly astonishing.
We advise everybody TO visit this matchless
entertainment. This afternoon an entertain
ment will be given for the accommodation Of
children when they will be admitted for six
cents each.

This schooner recently arrived at this port

number, then lbelled the vessel for their pro-
portions of the catch of fish, The libel was
returnable Tuesday morning, but upon request
of counsel for the owners, the hearing was
postponed until afternoon, in order to give the
owners time to be here. In the afternoon, none
OF the owners appearing, Judge Ware ordered
the hearing TO proceed; and upon the lbeants
proving the above statements, he ordered an
interlocutory decree for the sale of the schooner
on Monday, the decree to stay, il. in the mean

The Advance OF the Boston PaDers.

In another place we have referred TO the in
creased rates of the journal. 1t appears that
all the Boston dailies have agreed either to
advance their rates or to diminish their size
The Journal has heretofore been sold to news
men for Sl.50 per hundred, and the Herald for
81 cents. On and after Dec. next Monday
the price for the former will be 1926 per
hundred, and the latter S1.25. The Traveller
and Transcript increase their rates; the Post
Courier and Advertiser, heretofore IS per
year, and three cents single, are to reduce
their size. The Herald says:
This change has been forced upon us, and
cannot be avoided, although we have strue-
gled against it, as il has been our desire to fur
nish the public with cheap first class news
paper. But the fortunes of war have changed
everything, and we must go with the current.

President Buchanan in reply to Gen. Scott.

WASHINGTON. Nov 20.
Ex-President Buchanan, i'm the National In
telligencer of to-day, closes the controversy
between Gen. Scott and himself. and claims
that he has already furnished clear and distinct
responses to all the allegations of General
Scott. Mr. Buchanan says that he should now
have nothing more to add had Gen. Scott in
his rejoinder confined himself to the topics
embraced in his original letter. Gen. Scott
has extended the topics, and now for the first
time, and in sarcastic and unkindly spirit,
refers to the alleged stealing of public arms by
Secretary Floyd, and their transportation to
the South in anticipation of the rebellion
The most conclusive answer to the allegation
is, Mr.. Buchanan remarks. that notwithstand-
ing the Boosting OF Mr.. Floyd at Richmond,
evidently with the intention of concliatlng his
allies, there cited by Gen. Scott as his authori-
ty, no public arms were ever stolen. Had
Gen. Scott reflected a moment, he could not
have fallen into this blunder
