THE OPEEA-DoH Judn.-Another brilliant

smailness OF the stage and paueity OF adequate
scenery, was given in crediable style. The
orchestra and chorus was excellent LorinI

and duet with the tenor were magnificent.
Morensi's qualities OF voice did not show to
advantage as Donna Elrira, part to which it
is not well adapted, but she was enabled occa-
sionally to give a touch Of her quality. Cor
dier's Zerlina was very good, and though not
in her line, she sung the simple part with fine
effect.
Amodos Dor Juan was fair but not striking.
Susini, always good, made much of the part CT
Lrporeiio, though his rendition varies from the
famous personaton of the part by Carl Formes,
and probably those who saw Formes first in it
would not be satisfied with Susin Silver

HO0kER-GORDONSVIL FORD
NEWSPAPER STRATEGY, &c.

ER-GORDONSVILLE FORD
NEWSPAPER STRATEGY, &c.
The newspapers are again carving out plans
of the campaign for the Army Of the Potomac;
bootless task, indeed, the public's expe-
rience with the result of their previous ex-
ploits in the way of maneuverlng that huge
army demonstrates.
The New York Erening Post of Saturday,
among others, dilates upon the fancied taking
of Gordonsyille, and lays down for General
Hooker The plan by which he cannot lin that
journals estimation> fail to take Richmond
and end the war in Uhe inevitably ninety
days!
Now. we have to say that no more absurd
rumor ever crept into the columns of the press
than this same story Of the taking of Gordcns-
Vile, ere the roads leading there had dried
Nature has accorded it an impenetrable de-
fence up to this time, if not for a week or two
longer
This Gordonsville story was followed last
week by another whispered around first among
the secesh here) that Stoneman had been disas-
trously defeated at Kelly's Ford, &c, &C. in
which there is no truth whatever. He moved
up the Rappahannock on Monday last, and
threw small portion of his cavalry across
TIE river there for reconnaissance, designing
10 cross more over. But a sudden rise of the
water warned him that to do so Just then
would be impossible. So after an inconsider-
able skirmish with the rebel videttes and other
troops there, he withdrew all that had pre-.
Fiously got over. The losses on both sides
were about even-neither losing anything to
speak of. The latest Richmond papers OF
course magnify the rebels share in the affair,
as their allies in this quarter have done.
In view Of the serious injury time and again
inflicted on the good cause by such Newspaper
disquisitions as those of the Post referred to
above, we respectfully submit that it will be
best for the press to abstain altogether in future
from indulsing in its propensity to chalk out
Union campaigns, in doing which inklings Of
movements may be given out, resulting In In.
calculable mischief. tits enough TO know that
the Army OF the Potomac never was In as
excellent and reliable condition as at this mo-
nent, and is ready 10 move at the word Of COM
mand when and whittier its commander Or
ders. The country may safely rest assured
that be is not the man to hesitate to move it
when he can do SO with advantage.

NEGRO ON THE BRAIN

Our venerable cotemporary the National In.
tethgencer, is becoming sorely inflicted with
"negro on the brain," we fear, as it appears to
have at length evidently come to see nothing
but "the negro" in the Governments war pol
icy. 1t Is hard to tell which is Just now most
devoted to the interminable theme-the Tribune
or that journal. Our idea Of the duty of loyal
newspaper at this time differs widely from that
OF our contemporary, if we may be permitted to
draw conclusions from the apparent devotion
OF its columns to the dissemination OF articles
calculated to disinclne the public to giving the
Governments war measures the hearty sup
port they must have to insure the suppression
of the rebellion.
There can be but two sides from which to
choose just now-that of the rebels or that OF
the Union as he is net reliably loyal who hes.
itates to support the Union cause with might
and main because, forsooth, his own ideas of
now 1t should be managed are not made the
basis OF the Governments war policy. He who
expected that the institution Of slavery could
60 through long civil war without being ut.
teriy shorn of its political strength, is short
sighted. Nor is one a true friend to the cause
Of the Union unless willing to aid the Govern
ment in depriying the rebellion OF the great
strength it derives from the employment Of the
millions Of slaves directly and indirectly in
aiding its military operations. We have never
believed it possible so to deprive it without in
directly laying the funsation for tho entire
abolishment Of slavery in the border States, to
the temporary pecuniary injury Of the small
class of loyal men in them who owned such
property; and we have cheertully accepted our
individual share Of that injury, as we vslue
the cause of the Union far above any property
interests.
In this connection we may call public atten-
ton to the important fact that the policy OF
making soldiers Of the negroes has certainly
been a success They have answered as well
In Louisiana as in South Carolina and Florida,
and the fact that they do ans wer we'll, has al
ready obliterated the original repugnancs Of
the army where they serve, TO their employ.
ment with arms in their hands. That, in turn,
mclines them much more heartily to the SER
vice, and they are therefore enlisting far more
readily than before. If the war is to be pro-
racted we may not very long hence have a
hundred thousand Of them in the field. to the
