From Now Orleans and Port Hudson.

NEW CORK, June ~.
The steamer Locust, from New Orleans.
18th, arrived at 10 tonight. She brings no
copies of the Era, and other papers contain no
news whatever. The purser reports that
nothing had been received from Port Hudson,
excepting that fighting continued there, no
one knowing the result.
The tow boat Boston was captured by the
rebels on the evening of the 9th inst, near
Pilot Station, who extemporised her into a
pirate, capturing the bark Lenox, from New
York for New Orleans, burning the vessel and
cargo, and carrying off Capt. Cole and two
mates as prisoners. The crew and passengers
were allowed to go ashore in the bark's long
boats at the light house. The tug Leviathan
went in pursuit Of the Boston, but could not
find her.
The steamer Thames, from Pensacola, l4th
arrived tonight She brings no news. Among
the passengers are Captains Boice, Washburn
and Brown, Surgeon Kimball, Lieut. Prescott,
and twenty-five discharged soldiers Of the 18th
Maine regiment.
"A letter to the Times, from New Orleans,
says Gen. Sherman has had his leg amputated,

From Mexico.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 20.
Dates from the City of Mexico via Acapul-
co, are to the oath of May. All the French
residents have been compelled to leave the
city.
Gen. Juarez had taken command of the
Mexican troops. The Mexican Notifications
were being strengthened, and it was believed
that the government would food the valleys
on the approach of the French, and make
desperate resistance in every possible manner.
All the available Mexican troops are being
drawn towards the capital.
Gen. Comonfort is much censured for not
relieving Puebla, and in consequence has re-
signed.
The French advance had arrived at San
Martin les Mahian.
Gen. Forey had ordered the captured Next
can Generals to be sent to France, and the of
ficers to Martinique. Gen. Forey had set 5000
Mexican prisoners to work on the railroad
leading towards Vera Cruz, and 1000 he en-
ployed in destroying the entertainments
around Puebla.

DEERrNa HALL.-we are glad to learn that

DEERING HALL.-We are glad to learn that
Manager Myers is fast recovering. and will
soon be about again. The performances and
| pieces, since the return of Mr.. Myers company
have been excellent, and have been highly APP
preciated; we do not mean that they were not
good before, but that they were light and
frivolous compared with those brought out the
last week. There has been none of that con-
fusion at the door that was observed during
the first few days of Mr.. Myers illness, and
Mr.. Kingston is coming to understand our
people, and seems determined to please them.
The performance last evening, as whole,
was excellent-far superior to the rendition of
the same piece at the City Hall week preyi-
Gus; but while we say this we must also say
that either the author Of sour American
Cousin" or the actors sadly misrepresent the
English nobility. Perhaps both are in error.
A line in the programme said the actor was
the pupil of the great original Dundreary. If
such be the fact then we pass the pupil by and
pay our respects to the master. We are not
over fond Of anything that is John Bullish,
but we feel in duty bound to exonerate the
staid old gentleman in this case, for never in
all our experience has he sent to our shores
such a dancing, brainless, silly specimen of
humanity as was held up last evening as an
artistic representation of the English noble
man. 1t was not only burlesque upon hui
mainly, but an insult to the good sense of an
audience that had the slightest knowledge of
the English character.
Asa Trenchard, the American Cousin, by
Mr.. Robson, was very acceptable as whole,
though not above criticism. Its chief fault
was in its lack of pathos, particularly in the
scene with Mary Meredith. which by the by is
one Of the most beautiful in the whole piece.
Mr.. Robson has good deal of quiet humor,
but lacks the fire which should sometimes
sparkle, and the deep feeling which never
fails to show itself at times in every genuine
Yankee. Mrs. Langdon's Mary Meredith was,
in our estimation, one of the best sustained
parts in the play. 1t was excellent. She rep
resented the innocent child of nature in a
most truthful light, causing her character to
stand out in the living picture in bold relief
in its strongest light. Miss Reynolds, as
iioiohSc AichShaiu. was, as USUAL, ali THAT
could be desired. She is gem anywhere.
Mr. Langdon's rendition Of the inebriate was
capital, and we would here say that this gen.
tleman in his role has few equals-no superiors
that have as yet visited our city. Mr. Lee
moyne, the old man of the company, is an in
valuable member. Murray-the inimitable
Murray-never fails. Otis, the walking gem
tleman, is careful and studious, and will yet
rise in his profession. This evening an at
tractive bill is presented.

To the Editor If the Press.
SIR,-I noticed an article In the Saturdays
Argus, respecting the theatrical exhibition
last Friday evening, containing an allusion to
the music, which l think reflects rather Sc
verely on the band. Any one would infer from
the article that the leader lacked taste or
Judgment. 1t should be understood that the
band played what they were requested to
play by those connected with the theater, and
although some other piece than that which
was played at the close of the scene referred
TO in the article, might have been more appro-
pirate, yet must say think the author OF
that article extremely fastidious-more nice
than wise. He truly says there is time for
everything. 1t is SO. There is time to
speak and a time to be silent, and think on
this occasion he should have been SILENT But
allowing his judgment TO be correct, he shout
at any rate have understood the circumstan-
ces, and referred TO the matter in such a way
as would not impeach the leader of the band,
but place the blame lif there is any) where it
belongs. S.

Col. Montgomery,s Exped,tion.

NEW YORK, June ~.
A Hilton Head letter of the 18th states that
Montgomery's expedition, consisting Of the
54th Mass. and I'd n. C. regiments. and Bray
tons r. l. battery, proceeded up St. Simon's
Sound, Ga, and Turtle river, above Bruins
wick, on the Sth, and destroyed the railroad
bridge over Buffalo Creek. The expedition
also assembled Alabama river on the 18th,
above Darien, and captured schooner loaded
with forty bales of cotton, and brought her
away. The expedition then returned to st.
Simon's Island without the loss of man, and
awaited orders from Gen. Gilmore and the
supply of certain defects of what was found
necessary to its work.

becoming stronger, both in the army of the
Potomac and among military men, that Gen.
Lee is marching or preparing to march from

both.
